Kamala Harris Brags About Never Having A Private Sector Job

WFB: Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) on Wednesday boasted about never working in the private sector.

Harris attempted to take a shot at South Bend, Ind., mayor and presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg’s (D.) private-sector experience by highlighting how she has never earned a single dollar that was not provided by American taxpayers.

“For my entire career, I’ve only had one client: The People,” Harris wrote.

Earlier in the afternoon, NBC News reporter Priscilla Thompson tweeted that Buttigieg would be releasing more tax returns from his tenure at McKinsey & Company, a powerhouse consultancy.

“[Buttigieg encourages] his opponents to disclose income from their time working in the private sector as well,” Thompson tweeted, prompting Harris to tweet she has received $0 from the private sector. read more

  1. Harris reported an income of about $157,000 in 2018 from her job as a senator, as well as more than $320,000 in net income as a writer. Harris had two books published at the beginning of 2019 — “The Truths We Hold” and a children’s book called “Superheros are Everywhere.”

    Guess I’m supposed to believe the government hired her as a writer.

  2. I believe it was Phil Graham, a former Senator from Texas, who retired from the Senate and went into the private sector. In an interview later, Mr. Graham stated that had he known how burdensome the legislation and regulations he supported were, he never would have voted for them in the first place.

    We need legislators and public officials who have worked in the private sector – goofballs like Harris have never been subject to a bottom line like private businesses are. We also need to have Congress subject to each and every regulation imposed on the private sector; that way, politicians like Phil Graham can see the some of the practical effects of their actions while they are in office.
