Kamala Harris Is a Far-Left Radical, Let Us Count the Ways

Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the United States and now the Democrat presumptive nominee, has often been described as having a far-left political stance. Now that she’s going head-to-head with Donald Trump, the far-left media is trying to memory-hole all of the radical positions she’s taken.

But you can’t hide reality. In fact, her legislative record and public statements reflect positions that align with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. A recent article from Breitbart reveals 17 ways she is a radical who is a danger to America.

Harris drew controversy when she compared the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to those of the Ku Klux Klan during a Senate hearing, reflecting her strong opposition to actual law and order.
