As Kamala Harris aggressively tacks to the center in her run for the presidency, back in her notoriously progressive birthplace of Oakland, one of her closest associates is also seeking national office.

Transgender 'Yacht Killer' Serving Life Sentence Gets Taxpayer-Funded Sex-Change Surgery Thanks to Kamala Harris: 'He Killed My Daughter and Son-in-Law, Now He Gets What He Wants'

Sitting on death row in 2009, John Jacobson Jr., known as the "Yacht Killer," talked about murdering married couple Thomas and Jackie Hawks to obtain the money for a sex-change surgery. Five years earlier, Jacobson lured the Hawkses on to their boat off the California coast, tied them to the vessel's anchor, and threw them overboard before grabbing a beer from the fridge and starting to fish. Roughly a decade later, Jacobson changed his name and started receiving taxpayer funds for hormone treatment. The state of California footed the bill, and Jacobson is now eligible for transition surgery, a move made possible thanks to Kamala Harris's time as California's attorney general.

A California Law Is Overturning Murder Convictions Over 'Racially Coded' Language. This 'Tough on Crime' House Candidate Backed It.

A 2020 California law, the Racial Justice Act, demands that judges reverse or toss sentences based on implicit or systemic racial bias.

WORDS MATTER: Calling Trump a 'Convicted Felon' Is the Rhetorical Equivalent of Murdering George Floyd

Mainstream journalists and other Democrats celebrated the verdict, gleefully describing Trump as a "convicted felon" and arguing that his conviction should prohibit him from reintegrating into society by seeking gainful employment.
