Vice President Kamala Harris’ past relationship with ex-San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown is “fair game” for media scrutiny now that the former is the overwhelming favorite to be the Democratic Party’s nominee for president, according to Megyn Kelly.
“I’m going there,” Kelly said on her SiriusXM podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show” on Monday, noting that there was a “debate on Twitter … on whether Willie Brown” boosted her career during their brief romance decades ago.
“First she slept with this guy Willie Brown who was this extremely popular, powerful Congressman out in California … and he put her in two different positions that she did not deserve when she was only 29 or 30 [and] he was 60,” according to Kelly.
Brown, who at the time was speaker of the California Assembly, and Harris dated when she was a prosecutor in the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office. The relationship began in 1994 and ended sometime the next year.
