“A lot of her tough on crime reputation goes to her prosecution when she was San Francisco DA, individuals who use marijuana and other sorts of things,” Dan Epstein, president of AFL, told Fox News Digital. “Our investigation, however, makes it very clear that Kamala Harris does not believe much in terms of statutes passed by legislatures, including the Federal United States, Congress, as well as the state of California.”

Through public records requests to the California Attorney General’s Office, AFL is investigating Harris for several issues, including non-compliance with federal donor privacy laws, failure to enforce federal immigration laws, inadequate pursuit of equal justice, lack of disclosure of conflicts of interest, failure to address evidence of misconduct, the nature of investigations by the California Fair Practices Commission, and potential cover-up of misconduct evidence, Fox reported.

“And so those are really our probes of her not following the rule of law and bending it for a political objective,” Epstein told the outlet. “We also probe numerous kind of potential ethics issues and failures to disclose conflicts of interest, allowing her own staff as attorney general to engage in fraud and not kind of overseeing that.”

Early in her legal career, Harris was romantically involved with California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown, who is said to have helped her obtain influential positions at the California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and the California Medical Assistance Commission. AFL is now looking into whether Harris received improper political favoritism and whether she adequately recused herself or disclosed any conflicts of interest, the report said.

During her 2020 presidential campaign, which she launched in January 2019, Harris faced significant criticism over her prosecutorial record. Opponents of tough-on-crime prosecutions argue it disproportionately affects low-income families and minorities, further entrenching them in the prison system.

One of the most criticized aspects of Harris’ record was her handling of school truancy cases. Harris supported a truancy law, passed in 2011, that allowed district attorneys to charge parents with a misdemeanor if their children were chronically absent during the school year without a valid reason.

In 2019, Molly Redden of HuffPost examined the impact of the truancy program on families in her article, “The Human Costs of Kamala Harris’ War on Truancy.” One of those affected was Cheree Peoples, an African American mother who was arrested in April 2013 after her child had missed 20 days of school.

Later, Harris backed off her truancy crackdown in a 2019 podcast, saying it “never was the intention” to criminalize parents and describing the California law as one with “unintended consequences,” Politico reported at then.

She also faced criticism for being overly harsh on low-level drug offenders during her tenure as San Francisco’s district attorney and later as the state’s attorney general. Liberal critics argued that her policies contributed to the mass incarceration of black men, rather than emphasizing rehabilitation and criminal justice reform.

In June 2020, Harris promoted the bail fund that helped bail Black Lives Matter rioters out of jail, but only a fraction of the more than $41 million actually went to freeing rioters. Fox reported that, as of a week ago, the site was still up and collecting donations.

“It’s fairly clear that nobody disagrees, nobody disagrees that Trump is a felon because of political prosecution,” Epstein said. “And if the standard for Kamala Harris is that the process that led to Donald Trump being convicted is one of justice and one that she follows, then logically, it means that she is a political prosecutor, not a fair honest broker.”
