Sen. Kamala Harris' Unethical Handling of Herbalife Comes Back to Haunt Her
|
 [Conservative Zone] Sen. Kamala Harris’ statement that she practiced law to "protect people" rings hollow as evidence emerges that Sen. Kamala Harris had personal reasons for failing to investigate Herbalife when she was Attorney General of the state of California.
While the FTC was investigating the company and prosecutors in San Diego were urging her to do the same, then-AG Kamala Harris opted to simply ignore Herbalife as doing so would benefit both her and her husband.
At the time prosecutors in San Diego asked Harris to investigate Herbalife, she was not only the Attorney General of California but was also running for Senate. She received a campaign donation from Heather Podesta, the ex-wife of Tony Podesta and head of the Podesta Group. The Podesta Group had been working for Herbalife since 2016. Herbalife later hired a top Podesta deputy to serve as its own government relations official. Heather Podesta’s own lobbying firm began working for Herbalife shortly after sending Harris a donation, earning $250,000 for lobbying work on Herbalife’s behalf. Harris’ husband, Douglas Emhoff, was working at the law firm Venable, which was representing Herbalife at the time.
