The Washington Free Beacon posted a hilarious hitpiece on Vice President Kamala Harris this morning. It’s a three-reporter byline, featured prominently on their website, and heavily promoted by its editors.

Their big scoop: HARRIS LEFT HER JOB AT McDONALDS OFF HER RESUME. PICS OR IT DIDN’T HAPPEN!!!

Yes, for real.

These dipshits are doing GOTCHAS by digging up Harris’s post-college and law school resumes and pointing out that she left off a few weeks working the deep fryer between her freshman and sophomore years at Howard University. This hard-hitting investigation is just asking questions about why the Vice President didn’t mention the McDonalds gig when she applied to be a summer law clerk at the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office in 1987. Instead, she included stints at Charles Schwab, the FTC, a senate internship, and clerking at a law firm.

    Wow fucking insane that she would list relevant work experience and omit irrelevant work experience on a job application. Glad these guys got the scoop, sounds like it took three people so it must have been significant effort.

      Also, where was James O’Keefe at the time? Did getting this scoop involve dressing up as a pimp or a weird plot to get a woman on a boat and “seduce” her? Or maybe trespassing into a government building with plans on tampering with the phones?

      Whenever I see “exposes” like this I tend to think of O’Keefe and his clownshoes outfit that was hilariously called “Project Veritas”. Why that POS is not rotting in prison is a shining example of white right wing privilege if ever there is any.

      My resume goes back 27-years, but at least it’s all tech related. But that’s still ridiculous and I don’t know why I haven’t culled it.
