| Kamala Harris Stacks Presidential Campaign With Hillary Clinton Alums |
| 2019-01-23 |
| [Freebeacon] The newly launched Kamala Harris presidential campaign is stacked with top officials from Hillary Clinton's failed 2016 campaign, including her lawyer Marc Elias. The abundance of Clinton staffers joining Harris is unsurprising, as many went straight from the 2016 trail to work in her new senate office in 2017. Those moves were considered a signal to insiders that a presidential campaign may be in the works. The Harris campaign announced on Monday that Elias, Clinton's top lawyer, will be its general counsel; Lily Adams, Clinton's Iowa communications director and daughter of former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, will be its national communications director; Angelique Cannon, Clinton's deputy national finance director and national finance director for Senate Majority PAC, will be its national finance director; and David Huynh, Clinton's director of delegate operations and ballot access, will be its senior adviser. Elias was most recently in the spotlight a few months ago as the top lawyer for former Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson during the Florida recount, which ended with Republican Sen. Rick Scott holding on to his victory. Neither Elias nor the Harris campaign responded to inquiries on whether Elias has agreed to exclusively provide legal services to her campaign, or whether he would be able to work with her potential opponents in the primary. |

| #6 Guess this means they've either written Beest off, or it's some sabotage/co-optation move. |

| #5 What can Brown do for Kamala Harris? Deliver the box of this heiress Upstairs, 1600. "What is it?" he wondered, "A bust made of plaster of Paris?" |

| #2 KH is going all out and hiring the election-riggers? What are they going to do next: come up with a fake Dossier? Recruit a cadre of bimbos to create more fiction? |

| #1 ...The other day, I read a description of Senators Harris and Warren as 'humorless scolds with a hall monitor complex'. Pretty much covers it. Mike |
