While most of Hollywood is lavishing Kamala Harris with praise one day after Joe Biden named her as his running mate, former “Charmed” actress Rose McGowan is calling her out for her prior connections to disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.
McGowan took to Twitter on Wednesday to call out Harris for accepting donations from Weinstein during her time as attorney general of California.
“Did you return the money Weinstein gave you?” McGowan tweeted. “How many predators bankroll you?”

Records show that back in 2014, Harris accepted $2,500 from Harvey Weinstein for her re-election campaign for California attorney general, according to Breitbart News. She was then given another $2,500 donation from Weinstein for her bid for the U.S. Senate three years later .
Weinstein was known not only for being one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, but also for being a top Democratic donor who gave major donations to such power players as Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
He is currently serving a 23-year prison sentence for rape and sexual assault after dozens of women came forward to accuse him of taking advantage of them.
One of these women was McGowan, who claimed in her memoirs that Weinstein raped her at the Sundance Film Festival in 1997. She also alleges that the wealthy elites of Hollywood ignored her rape claims against Weinstein for decades, allowing him to prey upon and victimize more young women.
“I felt so dirty. I had been so violated and I was sad to the core of my being. I kept thinking about how he’d been sitting behind me in the theater the night before it happened. Which made it – not my responsibility, exactly, but – like I had had a hand in tempting him,” McGowan wrote of the attack. “Which made it even sicker and made me feel dirtier.”
Harris accepted Biden’s invitation to be his running mate despite the fact that she believed the women who came forward to accuse the former vice president of sexual misconduct that included unwanted touching and kissing.
“I believe them, and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it,” Harris said.
I guess for Harris, power for herself is more important than “believing all women,” after all.

This is going to make low carb eating almost impossible. So much popcorn wanted!
This could get to be very good entertainment!
Poor Rose - she is about to be cancelled for sure.
McGowan provides many clues as to how to investigate Harris and the financing of her past campaigns. Who in Hollywood have her money and why did they donate to her campaigns?
Its going to be difficult to decide which one of these two democrat dimbulbs is sleazier. Of course, Slow Joe has had more time in grade for graft and corruption but it appears that Kamaltoe is a quick study.
Left vs. Left is nothing but a Black Hole where stories disappear.
I’ll give Rose McGowan, she’s bat guano crazy but she’s pure in her craziness: she doesn’t make exceptions for ‘the greater good’ of electing communists. Most democrats would nominate David Duke if they thought he could beat Trump and excuse his past as youthful indiscretions that he’s moved beyond (as they did with the Virginia Governor, for example). But Rose McGowan don’t play that game.
Harris: As many as I need. I don't know the exact number.
Ivanka and President trump donated to her in that race. Seemed to be the thing to do.
“Heels Up” Harris can’t imagine why anyone would be reluctant to put their heels up.
LOL. That would be the honest answer.
I wonder if she ever returned those donations? That would be an interesting question to ask her.
Hell, she accepted donations from members of the Trump family. How embarrassing is that?!
This is just her daily nervous breakdown. Nothing unusual.
