She was too good at her job. I think people will care less about it since Biden directed the FDA to reschedule weed as schedule 3.

First test of whether she's actually moved on from her boomer-views of weed will be whether she undoes that.

As I feel the need to say every time I bring this up, I will be voting Kamala Harris in November. I don't see that these criticisms from when she was a VP candidate are any less valid than they were then though.

Closing paragraphs of that article:

I can forgive a politician a vote on a crime bill that looks ill-conceived two decades later, or a too-slow evolution toward marijuana legalization, or even a principled belief in the death penalty, something I adamantly oppose. I find it far harder to forgive fighting to keep a man in jail in the face of strong evidence of innocence, running a team of prosecutors that withholds potentially exculpatory evidence from defense attorneys, and utterly failing as the state’s top prosecutor to rein in glaringly corrupt district attorneys and law enforcement.

At best, Harris displayed a pattern of striking ignorance about scandalous misconduct in hierarchies that she oversaw. And she is now asking the public to place her atop a bigger, more complicated, more powerful hierarchy, where abuses and unaccountable officials would do even more to subvert liberty and justice for all.
