    Yup. I recall a lot of anti Kamala propaganda around marijuana and some law she passed where parents get fined money if their kids don’t go to school. And then she poofed.

      She largely bowed out because she ran out of money, and unlike others in the campaign she didn’t have pocket cash to fund her campaign herself nor rich backers clamoring for her to get in there.

      No, the parents were arrested for children being truant. One had too many unexcused absences because the child had sickle-cell anemia and the single mom had to spend a lot of time dealing with the court process.

      It wasn’t fines it was threatening jail and arrest. She kept people in overcrowded jails against the orders of the Supreme Court, because the county needed slaves for fire-fighting because prison firefighters cannot become wildfire firefighters when they are out of prison. She also has never pushed back against abusive police.

      Her past as a tough on crime Attorney General has been recently glossed over and she won’t speak on it or admit she made mistakes.
