Clip doesn't seem to be available yet. Worth a watch if you can.

ETA, found the video of Niki on TRMS (two tweets)

Niki Solis, a Public Defender who battled then DA Kamala Harris in San Fran says calling Harris anything other than progressive is “absurd.”

“I think the left has to understand that the narrative that was being spun wasn’t... true.”
#Maddow #BidenHarris #KHive

Appears there were sev progressive programs KH put into place that Solis’ office knew of and even celebrated.

Only thing I’ll add is... don’t hesitate to speak the truth about a good advocate again. Goes for us all.

We all miss out when the truth is left out of the fight.
