"It would seem odd for Harris to never mention this detail about her life story until she was in her mid-50s. She wrote multiple books, and none of them included her working at McDonald's. The multiple biographers who profiled her apparently never knew about it either. Only when it became politically convenient did Harris start making the claim." . . .She appears to have become Joe Biden, fabulist

"Did Kamala Harris ever work at McDonald's and if so, did the job help her "put herself through college?" Those might not seem like important questions on the surface, but when you consider the Democrat presidential nominee has been using the claim to fluff her supposedly hard-knock background, the truth of the matter becomes just a bit more relevant.
Early this month, Harris’s campaign said she used her McDonald’s wages to pay for college. "Vice President Harris is the daughter of a working mother and worked at a McDonald’s to put herself through college," campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt said this month. A pro-Harris super PAC ad said she "work[ed] her way through school at McDonald’s." And former president Bill Clinton, at the Democratic National Convention, joked that "she’ll break my record as president who has spent the most time at McDonald’s."
"According to Harris, she "did fries" before moving over to work as a cashier, and that's just the first part of the tale that doesn't necessarily add up. The behind-the-counter dynamic at McDonald's doesn't typically have a specific person only cooking fries. With that said, it's at least possible she labored at a unique McDonald's that had her only cooking fries before moving over to be a cashier." . . .
"Then there's her post-college resume, which never mentions any job at McDonald's. In the same document, she mentioned fairly irrelevant details about her travel to Africa and India."
That's all OK with Sally Field. Sally Field Returns to Social After Kamala Harris' Presidential Bid (hollywoodreporter.com) Sally Field has returned to social media, thanks to Kamala Harris‘ presidential bid.
"The Oscar-winning actress posted two separate posts on her Instagram, sharing that she is back on the platform as a result of Harris running for president alongside Tim Walz as her vice president nominee.
" 'I’ve not been on social media. Not since it became public toilet paper for our former crook of a President. But ‘hope is making a comeback.’ So here I am,” she captioned a carousel of her with her dog, Dash, on Thursday." . . .
