Vice President Kamala Harris has been thrown into the political spotlight follow Joe Biden’s decision not to stand for re-election.
Journalists and political activists are in the process of pouring over Harris’ track record – both personally and politically – which has been somewhat subdued with the ever-swirling questions over Biden’s future.
Now those questions are answered, the attention has turned to Harris, with one aspect of her life coming under scrutiny.
One such examples is her affair with Willie Brown.
In the mid-1990s, Harris and a married Brown dated while the latter was Speaker of the California State Assembly. She was 29 years old and he was 60. Brown, who was significantly older and politically influential, appointed Harris to two well-paying state commissions – the State Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and the California Medical Assistance Commission. The move drew intense scrutiny and allegations of favoritism.
Harris has since developed her own political career following the culmination of her relationship with Brown. She became District Attorney of San Francisco in 2004 before becoming California’s Attorney General in 2010. Her six-year tenure was marked with controversy – something which all-but ended her maiden presidential campaign in 2019.
The so-called “fact checkers,” who are really just opinion checkers for the left, decided to attempt to “debunk” claims about Harris related to this, and the desperation was hilarious. The Associated Press “fact checker” attempted to argue that it’s not true Harris had an affair from a married Brown because the two were separated at the time (while legally married).

Many on social media mocked the supposedly “missing” context.

Others couldn’t help but laugh.

So, what’s the context?
“We were on a break ….”
