California Senator Kamala Harris is a lawyer who understands how to wield words. The former California Attorney General who memorably went after what she called the “outrageous, despicable and illegal” trafficking practices of the Backpage website is using her penchant for strong assertions and description in her new role as senator.
Harris is in opposition to nearly everything Donad Trump, the most famous Twitter user in government, advocates. And Harris, like her fellow senator Elizabeth Warren, is adept at using Twitter to make her opposition points and rally the troops. She’s using it often, too. Here are 15 of Harris’ most fired up tweets — just in the last week.
