Sure, I dated Kamala Harris. So what?

WELL the truth has finally been told and straight from the horses mouth WILLIE BROWN has admitted that KAMALA HARRIS was his mistress and he's responsible for her political career.

Kamala Harris, then San Francisco’s district attorney, laughs with Willie Brown at an event in September 2005.

I’ve been peppered with calls from the national media about my “relationship” with Kamala Harris, particularly since it became obvious that she was going to run for president. Most of them, I have not returned.
Yes, we dated. It was more than 20 years ago. Yes, I may have influenced her career by appointing her to two state commissions when I was Assembly speaker.

And I certainly helped with her first race for district attorney in San Francisco. I have also helped the careers of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Sen. Dianne Feinstein and a host of other politicians.

The difference is that Harris is the only one who, after I helped her, sent word that I would be indicted if I “so much as jaywalked” while she was D.A.

That’s politics for ya.
