Really? Here we go. In October, she will be 56 years old.

She is the daughter of immigrants from Jamaica and India. She studied at Howard University in Washington, D.C. She then went on to become the district attorney of San Francisco, then Attorney General of California, then Senator from California in 2017. In 1994, California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown, with whom Ms. Harris was having an affair, appointed her to the State Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board, And then later on to the California Medical Assistance Commission, Ms. Harris took a leave of absence from her prosecutor job to serve in those state positions. She famously chided Joe Biden in a debate about his lack of support for busing. You remember that. Ms. Harris was running against Mr. Biden for the Democratic nomination, and she said,

said, quote, there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools, and she was bussed to school every day, and that little girl was me. And the implication, of course, was that Mr. Biden opposed the little girl, Kamala Harris, and then she went on because of the busing to become very successful. In October 2018, Senator Harris just brutalized Brett Kavanaugh at the hearings of his Supreme Court nomination. You'll remember that.

Not only was she attacked by Senate Republican, she was mocked by the President of the United States. The Judge Kavanaugh that the American people saw before the Judiciary Committee does not have the character, the temperament, or the judgment to sit on the highest court in our land, unquote. Well, you also may remember that the FBI investigated Justice Kavanaugh exhaustively found no evidence that he ever did anything to Christine Blasey, A few weeks ago, Kamala Harris said this about Black Lives Matter, quote, they're not going to stop before election day and they're not going to stop after election day. Everyone should take note of that on both levels, that they are not going to let up and they should not, and we should not, unquote.

So Senator Harris is a supporter of Black Lives Matter. There's no question that the senator is an ardent member of the law. left. She is a promoter of San Francisco values. Secularism, amnesty for the undocumented, free health care, no due process, green new deal, no or low bail for those arrested, and a variety of other liberal tenants.

Seven years ago today, a jury found a notorious Boston crime boss, guilty of murder, racketeering, and drug dealing after a 16-year manhunt to bring him to justice.

Most Americans had never heard of him, but the suspect was long considered one of the FBI's ten most wanted, his name Whitey Bulger. James Joseph Bulger ran the Winter Hill gang in Boston and suburbs. He ordered two dozen murders while running the state's drug pipeline between Boston and New York City. In his prime, Bulger had more than 75 mafia soldiers at his disposal. White he managed to evade local police by cooperating with the FBI. He worked as a snitch using the Department of Justice to arrest his heroin dealing rivals. An amazing story of corruption. On December 23rd, 1994, Bolger fled Boston after learning he was going to be arrested for a series of homicides. An FBI agent tipped him all. off, if you can believe it. It took the Fed 16 years to find Bulger. The then 81-year-old was

ultimately arrested in a tiny apartment in Santa Monica, California, despite having about $10 million hidden. Bullger was found guilty on August 12, 2013, but the story does not end there. Whitey's stay in prison would not last very long. In October, 2018, about three months after his conviction, the then-89-year-old wheelchair-bound Bulger was beaten to death in a federal prison. A group of men killed the gang leader with padlocks wrapped in socks. The FBI believes the Boston Mafia ordered the hit four members of that crime family were in the same prison at the time Bulger's murder. Yet no one has been charged. And here's something else you might not know. Despite being an informant, the FBI added Whitey Bulger to its 10 most wanted list in 1999.

The only target above Bulger was Osama bin Laden. Back after this.
