uh do you all remember this Tulsi gabard ands Camala Harris bid for president check it out I want to bring the conversation back to the broken criminal justice system that is disproportionately negatively impacting black and brown people all across this country today now Senator Harris says she's proud of her record as a prosecutor and that she'll be a prosecutor president but I'm deeply concerned about this record there are too many examples to site but she put over 1500 people in jail for marijuana violation and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana she blocked evidence she blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from Death Row until the courts forced her to do so she kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the State of California and she fought to keep cash bail system in place that impacts poor people in the worst kind of way thank you congresswoman Senator Harris your response as the elected Attorney General of California I did the work of significantly reforming the criminal justice system of a state of 40 million people which became a national model for the work that needs to be done and I am proud of that work and I am proud of making a decision to not just give fancy speeches or be in a legislative body and give speeches on a floor but actually doing the work of being in the position to use the power that I had to reform A system that that is badly in need of Reform that is why we created initiatives that were about re-entering former offenders and getting them counseling the bottom line is Senator Harris when you were in a position to make a difference and an impact in these people's lives you did not and worse yet in the case of those who were on death row innocent people you actually blocked evidence from being revealed that would have freed them until you were forced to do so there is no excuse for that and the people who suffered under your reign as prosecutor you owe them an apology our Democratic party unfortunately is not the party that is of by and for the people it's a it is a party that has been and continues to be influenced by the foreign policy establishment in Washington represented by Hillary Clinton and others foreign policy by the military industrial complex and other greedy corporate interests Senator Harris any response oh [Laughter] sure um I I think that um it it's unfortunate that we have someone on the stage who is attempting to be the Democratic nominee for president of the United States who during the Obama Administration spent four years fulltime on Fox News criticizing President Obama has spent full time has spent full time criticizing people on this stage as affiliated with the Democratic party When Donald Trump Trump was elected not even sworn in buddied up to Steve Bannon to get a meeting with Donald Trump in the Trump Tower fails to call a war criminal by what he is as a war criminal and then spends full time during the course of this campaign again criticizing the Democratic party what we need on the stage on in November is someone who has the ability to win and by that we need someone on that stage who has the ability to go toe-to-toe with Donald Trump and someone who has the ability to rebuild the Obama Coalition and bring the party and the nation together I believe I am that candidate thank you Senator Congress congresswoman Gabbert I'll give you a chance to respond Senator Harris is doing is unfortunately continuing to traffic in lies and smears and innuendos because she cannot challenge the substance of the argument that I'm making the leadership and the change that I'm seeking to bring in our foreign policy which only makes me guess that she will as president continue the status quo continue the bush Clinton Trump foreign policy of regime change Wars which is is deeply destructive
