Kamala Harris-backed ‘Freedom Fund’ that put murderers, rapists back on streets still up and running

bail fund once backed by Vice President Kamala Harris during the 2020 presidential campaign that helped free violent criminals is back in the spotlight as the website appears to still be taking in donations.

As of Monday night, the website was running and accepting payments.

If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota,” Harris posted on X, then Twitter, back in 2020, urging people to donate to the fund during the 2020 campaign.

Harris promoted the bail fund in June 2020 to help bail Black Lives Matter rioters out of jail, but only a fraction of the more than $41 million actually went to freeing rioters.

Minneapolis-based FOX 9 reported that the fund spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to free an alleged knife murderer and a convicted rapist who was facing charges of sexual assault and kidnapping, among others.

Another criminal, George Howard, 48, also reaped the benefits of the funds. He allegedly became involved in a road rage altercation on an Interstate 94 entrance ramp before he shot another driver, according to Minneapolis police – weeks after bailing out on domestic assault charges.

Negative associations with the Biden administration. “Joe Biden has been the worst President in my lifetime, and Kamala Harris has been right there with him every step of the way,” Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Trump’s vice presidential pick, said in a statement Sunday.

Harris has been painted as Biden’s so-called “border czar,” and many Republicans are unhappy with her work on the border and immigration. In February, 57% of Republicans said their No. 1 concern going into November was the border.

Biden’s health. In addition to trying to pin many of Biden’s policies on her, Republicans have already begun questioning Harris for her role in Biden’s perceived mental decline. Republicans believe Harris was part of a Democratic scheme to cover up the president’s health.

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) said on Fox News earlier this month that Harris should be subpoenaed and possibly could be impeached for “lying to the American people” about Biden’s mental state and not invoking the 25th Amendment.

“No one has been more central to the cover-up than Kamala Harris,” the Republican National Committee said in an email earlier in July before Harris became a presidential candidate.

Replacement without a primary. As Democrats paint Trump as a threat to democracy, some on the Right are questioning Democrats supporting Harris as the new nominee despite not having led tickets in the presidential primaries.

“Joe Biden succumbed to a coup by Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, and Hollywood donors, ignoring millions of Democratic primary votes,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) wrote.
