Truth about Donald Trump, Willie Brown and an almost Helicopter Crash by Mary Cummins

willie brown, kamala harris, nate holden, black, mary cummins, helicopter crash, donald trump, trump towers, ambassador hotel, mary cummins, appraiser,appraisal, los angeles, california

UPDATE: I posted about this almost helicopter crash 11/04/2016. I posted this article 08/09/24 at 2:58 pm. I then emailed it to NY Times, tweeted it to NY Times, Trump and posted it on my LinkedIn and Facebook pages. NY Times and few other journalists emailed me. Some asked for Nate Holden contact which I shared. They contacted him to confirm story and then ran articles about the most likely mixup of Donald Trump's story later yesterday. I believe Trump mixed up Willie Brown for Nate Holden. All other aspects of Trump's story match Nate's story, i.e. date, place, Barbara Res story, Taj Mahal...

ORIGINAL: When I heard the story about Donald Trump and black California politician Willie Brown and an almost helicopter crash it sounded familiar. I remembered a story from black California politician Nate Holden when he rode in a helicopter with Trump and almost crashed before making an emergency landing in New Jersey in 1990. I remembered because it mentioned the Ambassador Hotel which I appraised for Trump's potential "Trump Tower" deal. I met Trump's main real estate person Barbara Res when I was working with the Schine family who owned the shuttered hotel.

Below is the text from Nate Holden's November 2016 post. A link to the post is below that. I saved the text and post image in 2016 and just found it today when I heard Trump might sue the NY Times. Notice image above says "1 hour." I saved it one hour after Nate posted it November 2016. Then I searched my friend Nate's Facebook page and the post was still there. Based on the opening of Taj Mahal April 5, 1990 that is probably when it happened.

"In my recent post I stated that Donald Trump is, "Not a giver to charities" At the conclusion, I said I would report how we avoided a crash in one of his helicopters. Here is the story. I guess Pence didn't get the memo about "Trump Air"

"The Donald" asked me to return to New York to continue discussion on the acquisition of the Ambassador Hotel site and to accompany him to Atlantic City at the opening of the Taj Mahal, his newly built gambling casino. After a short visit in his office, we took the elevator to the lobby on our way to the launching pad. While in the lobby there were a number of people who acknowledged me by saying, "Hi, Senator Holden! Are you living in New York now?" DT said to me, "This is my building and more people know you then know me!" LOL That bothered him.

From that point, we proceeded to take his limo to the launching pad. It was the bumpiest limo ride I ever had! Shocks were gone. Every pot hole we hit was a big bounce. I couldn't believe his limo was not well maintained. We arrived at the launching pad and boarded the helicopter. Traveling with us was Barbara Res and one other individual. We had 2 pilots. BTW the helicopter was a refurbished military helicopter. "The Donald" said, "I have 2 pilots. In case one dies, the other can take over." As we gained altitude heading towards Atlantic City, DT talked about how beautiful the skyline was and how he was going to build the tallest building back in Los Angeles at the Ambassador Hotel site. After a short period of time the pilot began to yell at DT to, "Shut up! Shut up! Keep quiet!" The ride got rougher and rougher. The pilot then announced that the hydraulic system had just failed! They kept it airborne by pumping manually. Just then, I remembered that some of DT's top executives had died 6 months earlier in a helicopter crash because the hydraulic system failed. To make a long story short, we had an emergency landing in Linden, NJ which I am familiar with because I grew up in the area, Elizabeth. "The Donald" turned white as a ghost! I got angry because the plane was not properly maintained and I made my feelings known to the maintenance personnel. One had just crashed and this one was about to crash. I was very upset.

But that is not the worst part of the trip. We boarded another helicopter going to Atlantic City and when we arrived and de-boarded there was a red carpet for DT to enter the Taj Mahal surrounded by a welcoming committee on both sides of the red carpet. As we entered they began to applaud "The Donald" I walked side by side with him. The moment we entered the Taj Mahal he asked me if I wanted to have lunch and then he disappeared. His female assistant took me to a cafeteria area, which was demeaning to me, and then actually asked me to pay for my lunch! I refused! "The Donald" was no where to be found.

That was the straw that broke the camels back as far as I was concerned. I returned to NYC, checked out of his hotel where they charged me $450 per day even though I was invited by him. After that visit I did not hold him in high esteem. That's "The Donald" for you. That is what he was then and what he is today. He takes away and gives nothing back."

Nate's post was still there when I searched for it by word "helicopter."

The case where the three Trump employees died was October 10, 1989 in Lacey Township, New Jersey. Three top executives in Donald Trump's organization were killed. That means Nate's ride was 1990. Ambassador Hotel shuttered 1989. I appraised it 1990. Taj Mahal casino mentioned in Nate's post opened in April 5, 1990. Article about the crash.

I actually wrote about this in 2016.

https://marycumminsinvestigativereporter.blogspot.com/2016/11/donald-trump-is-so-cheap-that-his.html

I also wrote about the Ambassador Hotel deal in 2016.

https://mary--cummins.blogspot.com/2016/10/donald-trump-and-ambassador-hotel-in.html

Turns out Barbara Res wrote about the helicopter story in her biography "Tower of Lies: What My Eighteen Years of Working With Donald Trump Reveals About Him" published in 2020. Her story matches Nate's.

Willie Brown allegedly dated Kamala Harris 1994-1995 or so. This helicopter incident happened in 1990. There's no reason why Brown or Holden would be talking shit about Kamala Harris especially at this time. In 1990 she was only the Deputy DA. 1998 she was Assistant DA. She wasn't the DA until 2002 long after these events. There are sometime a few Deputy DA, Assistant DA.

Other posts by Nate Holden about Donald Trump. None are positive.

"A picture is worth 1000 words! 25 years ago at my meeting where I gave Donald Trump the opportunity to use the microphone he proposed a deal to acquire the Ambassador Hotel for a future development project. As you can see from the expression on my face, his deal was unbelievable. Since that time his deals have also been unbelievable. Hence, so many bankruptcies!!!! His investors were the ones who lost money in the Ambassador Hotel deal. The American people should be reluctant to become his investors. The price of such a deal would bring a depression in the highest order. I know Donald Trump. The American people should be warned not to learn about him the hard way. Feel free to share!"

"Donald Trump’s Confidant, Michael Cohen’s Interview with Vanity Fair

It has been reported today that Michael Cohen, Donald Trump's confidant, interviewed with Vanity Fair, and claimed that when South African leader Nelson Mandela died, Donald Trump remarked, “Name one country run by a black person that’s not a s***hole,’ and then he added, ‘Name one city.” When Donald Trump requested to build a high rise on Wilshire Blvd. at the site of the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, CA, he requested authorization from Mayor Tom Bradley, who referred Donald Trump to me, stating that it would be my decision because it was in my district. I had no idea that he thought I was a s***hole, after all, I am BLACK. Never the less, I supported the project. At the time he was negotiating to build the high rise, Donald trump invited me to New York twice, to visit him at the Trump Tower. Donald Trump also asked me to join him on his private plane to Atlantic City at the dedication of the Taj Mahal. After all that has been said, it is my opinion that Donald Trump is a very confused individual."

"Trump is always bidding on projects that his investors can NOT afford! Read this LA Times Article and see for yourself. His investors bought the right to develop the Ambassador Hotel site. That was my council district and I helped make the arrangements. The project was moving smoothly and would have been in competition with the Century City development projects. It spooked Zev Yaroslavsky who represented the 5th council district, which included Century City. I was very upset when Zev Yaroslavsky Richard Katz, who represented the Assembly district in the valley, and Jackie Goldberg called a news conference at the Hotel site protesting the development. Shortly thereafter, Jackie Goldberg and the school board invoked eminent domain action for the purpose of building a school. The school district put $50 million in a trust a fund and Donald spent it! So when Donald won the right to reacquire the property he could not repay the $50 million to the trust fund. The rest is history!"

The Blackwashing of America by Mary Cummins Los Angeles, California

The Blackwashing of America, by Mary Cummins, Los Angeles, California, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Black, White, George Floyd, death race, racial, discrimination, police brutality, metoo, blacklivesmatter, real estate

UPDATE: 2022. A lot has happened since I first wrote this article. Real estate market is going down, interest rates are up, fears of a recession are looming and companies are firing people to cut expenses. First group of people to be fired are the DEI consultants and directors. Turns out they weren't effective because people at the top of the company didn't want them to be effective. They didn't give them the power, funds or ability to change the company. Because DEI is a relatively new field many DEI employees weren't always experienced or effective. Hiring DEI employees was all for show, corporate window dressing.

https://www.yahoo.com/now/hamstrung-golden-handcuffs-diversity-roles-194601215.html

ORIGINAL: Black George Floyd was murdered by a white police officer May 25, 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. While black men have been killed by police officers for many years that specific black murder changed everything.

Black Lives Matter had been gaining influence and support since 2013. People had increasingly been taking and sharing videos of police brutality and use of excessive force against black men on social media. Videos of violence against black people were going viral. There was now no way to deny the intense racism in our country especially at the intersection of police and black men. That one death started a movement which has changed the face of the US.

"The country is in a time of racial reckoning, heightened by a summer of protests against systemic racism and police brutality following the death of George Floyd in police custody." Floyd's death "sparked the largest racial justice protests in the United States since the Civil Rights Movement." "According to data from various sources, the Black Lives Matter movement is now the largest movement in US history."

George Floyd's death also changed the face of US politics. His death happened five months before the November 3, 2020 Presidential election. The issue of race and black people was front and center on the Democratic platform. Kamala Harris promised $60 billion for Historically Black Colleges and reparations for descendants of black slaves if she became President. Joe Biden promised racial equity for black people in housing and the appointment of people of color in his cabinet and in the White House.

The public was demanding that government and business alike recognize and take action against racism and other "isms" like the #metoo movement. The list now includes women, people of color, LGBTQ, disabled... Reparations for past transgressions and inequalities must be made. And the government and business are responding.

Joe Biden appointed many people of color to his cabinet. Biden started the Interagency Task Force on Property Appraisal and Valuation Equity (PAVE). Companies have changed their Mission Statements and Articles of Incorporation to include diversity statements. Businesses have hired Diversity Officers to educate and advise them on how to treat employees and customers fairly without racism or bias. They are analyzing the percent makeup of people on their boards, managerial teams, staff who are male/female, black/white/brown, disabled ... and trying to make their company better reflect the communities they serve. PR and media firms have been hired to shape and transform companies' public faces to appear non-biased or racist. They have been blackwashing their websites, branding and image.

Websites which used to have only white people now have only black people or mainly black people. There are now more women and people of color besides disabled and other people on public websites. These are all good and positive changes. Below are a few websites from before and after George Floyd's death. Only some websites that maintained the same format and allowed web.archive.org access are included for comparison. Click images to see larger. Before is on the left.

Wells Fargo Bank

American Express

CIBC

It's been 17 months since George Floyd died. So far it doesn't appear that there has been much real change in the board rooms. Some companies have released their first Inclusion Annual Report. Mastercard's report shows that a very small percentage of the board or upper management is black or female. The percentage is much smaller than the general population. They did show the smallest amount of improvement in some categories but nothing has really changed much for women, black people or Latinos.

There also hasn't been much progress by the government giving money to black colleges. A Covid relief fund designated for only black people had to be offered to all because it was found to be unconstitutional. Joe Biden signed H.R. 40 which established a Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans but no progress has been made.

It will probably take another couple of years before we can tell if George Floyd's death actually made a difference in the lives of black people or if George Floyd's life really mattered to society as a whole. Maybe it was just an event used by government and big business for their own agendas of getting elected and making money. Time will tell. Actions speak louder than words and so far there is no real action. Black lives matter.

Who is Kamala Harris Democratic candidate for President? Biography, ancestry, history by Mary Cummins

kamala harris, kamala devi harris, senator, democrat, president, oakland, california, prosecutor, jamaica india, born 1964, mother, father, ancestry, heritage, dna, family tree, mary cummins, husband, douglas emhoff, maya harris, lawyer, attorney, shyamaa gopalan iyer, gopalan, donald harris, brown, harris, finnegan,

UPDATE: 08/02/2024 Trump said Kamala didn't pass the California state bar exam to become a lawyer. She did in 1990. https://apps.calbar.ca.gov/attorney/Licensee/Detail/146672

08/12/2020 Joe Biden announced Kamala Harris is his running mate. While I wrote this article I fully support Joe Biden and his running mate. While Kamala Harris is not perfect neither is any other Dem candidate.

06/28/2019 I can't believe I have to post this. Yes, Kamala Harris was really born in California. Here is her birth certificate information and her birth certificate. She was born here making her a natural citizen. Her father was born in Jamaica. Her mother was born in India. The city of Oakland is in Alameda County, California.

Kamala Harris birth certificate, kamala devi harris, alameda county, california, october 20 1964, president, democrat, candidate, donald trump, donald jasper harris, shyamala gopalan

Here is the actual birth certificate amended. Her middle name is listed as "Iyer" after a name of her mother. It was amended to just "D" for "Devi." They have the mother's name wrong, first name switched with last name.

Kamala Harris birth certificate, kamala devi harris, alameda county, california, october 20 1964, president, democrat, candidate, donald trump, donald jasper harris, shyamala gopalan

My birth certificate looks exactly like the one above. I was born in California 1965. That is an authentic birth certificate.

Now they are saying Kamala Harris is not "black" or "African American" but a "Jamaican" which would make her dad British which he was, is. Kamala Harris' father is Donald Jasper Harris. He likes to say he is not a descendant of Africans but he is. I don't know why he likes saying his ancestors were "slave owners." Mine unfortunately were. That's why there are so many black people with the last name "Cummins." The ancestors which he says are his were white people from Ireland who came to Jamaica to farm sugar cane with black slaves. See the link below for "Hamilton Brown." There is even a list of his slaves. Some think maybe Kamala Harris' father's grandmother Chrishy Brown could be the granddaughter of Hamilton Brown with one of his slaves. Colonel Hamilton Brown had a son Hamilton Brown Jr who married a white woman. Others in Brown's Town stated that many people took on the last name Brown. I so far haven't found any direct records.

The original inhabitants of Jamaica came from South America. They were wiped out by the Spanish through war, slavery and disease. For this reason the Spanish imported many black slaves from West Africa. The ratio was 20 black slaves per white person in Jamaica. After slavery was no longer legal or allowed they imported "slaves" and indentured servants from West Indies. Kamala Harris is 50% mixed African and 50% Indian from India.

Some are saying that Donald Jasper Harris is a "white man." In some photos he looks lighter than he is. Same with Kamala's mother. Below are some pics of Donald Harris. Keep in mind people fade as they get older.

Below is a visa for him to go to Puerto Rico. He is a British citizen born in Jamaica.

Here is a pic of Kamala, her mother and her paternal grandfather Oscar Joseph Harris. Everyone looks lighter here than they are. People also fade as they get older.

ORIGINAL: Kamala Devi Harris was born October 20, 1964 to Donald Jasper Harris and Shyamala Gopalan. Kamala has a younger sister Maya Lakshmi Harris born January 30, 1967. Maya Harris went to an expensive private Catholic high school called O'Dowd High School in 1984 which today costs $20,000/year. As both parents were PhD's they weren't poor. For Kamala to state she wouldn't be where she is today without being bused is a bit disingenuous. Both parents were well educated PhDs. Busing was actually a failure in terms of segregation. Plus Shyamala sent her own child Maya to a private school. She didn't want her daughter to go to the local public high school even though it was integrated at that time.

In fact her mother admits that her child was not an "impoverished girl from the rough side of town" but "a privileged child of foreign graduate students whose academic pursuits led them to UC Berkeley. Harris' mother, the daughter of a high-ranking Indian government official, would earn a doctorate in biological sciences and become a well-published breast cancer researcher. She is now based at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratories and lives in a spacious condominium in a historic building (492 Staten Ave 801, Oakland, CA, 2 bed, 2 bath, built 1929, $1.4M value today, Maya and Kamala sold for $710K in 2012) overlooking Oakland's Lake Merriff. Harris' father, Donald, earned his doctorate in economics, joined the faculty of Stanford University and advised the Jamaican government on economic issues." "Growing up Shyamala gave her daughters a worldly education, traveling frequently to visit family in India, the Caribbean and Europe. Harris attended high school in Montreal." Los Angeles Times, Oct 24, 2004, pg 108. The data came from Kamala and her mother.

I just got email where people said they didn't believe this. Here is the clipping from the LA Times. Kamala and her mother admit they weren't poor but rich and privileged. Kamala was not a poor black child bused to combat segregation. I was born in 1965. I also got bused and hated it as you had to wake up early and travel for long periods of time. Here Kamala and her mother admit they were wealthy and privileged. Now all of a sudden Kamala is a poor black child in Oakland.

Kamala Harris is rich and privileged.

I'm really against Dems attacking Dems. Attack GOP and Trump but not each other. What really gets me in this case is Obama and Biden have supported Harris in her many campaigns. In fact in one campaign Obama is the one who called her the "prettiest" or "most beautiful" candidate. It wasn't Biden. Obama apologized but Harris said it wasn't necessary. If Biden had said that ....!

Also, without Biden, Obama wouldn't have been elected. People would not have elected blackish Obama without Biden. Obama needed an older conservative white Dem male on his ticket to win. Ifffff Harris is the candidate, which I'm doubting at this point, she will also need someone on her ticket. She could also really use the support of Biden who has the old white conservative Dem support. Harris needs to think about these things. The most important thing is to vote out Trump. I will vote for whoever is the Dem candidate but please, stop hurting Dems.

Shyamala owned the home at 3945 Turnley Ave, Oakland, CA in 1982. It was 3 bed, 2 bath, 1,500 sf home. She sold it in 1999 for $262,000.

Donald J Harris owned a house at 868 RICHARDSON CT, PALO ALTO CA 94303, 3 bed, 2 bath, 2,004 sf which he sold in 2001 for $880,000. These people weren't poor. They were both Dr's pulling in pretty good salaries.

Kamala's father Donald Jasper Harris was born August 23, 1938 in Saint Anne's Bay, Kingston, Jamaica. Donald studied economics at UC Berkeley in 1963. That same year Donald was in a training program at the U.N financed by the Institute of International Studies. He later became a professor in economics at Stanford University in Stanford, California. Donald wrote "Reflections of a Jamaican Father" which chronicles his life in Jamaica and his ancestry. He claims to be descended from "Hamilton Brown who is on record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town." Hamilton Brown was a slave owner from Ireland. Donald married Shyamala Gopalan July 5, 1963 and divorced in December 1971 all in California. Below is the marriage info from the newspaper.

kamala harris, donald jasper harris, shyamala gopalan, marriage, wedding, california

Kamala's mother was Shyamala Gopalan Iyer 1938 - 2009. Below is Shyamala's obituary.

"Despite her 5-ft stature, hers was a commanding presence characterized by a sharp wit, keen sense of humor and endless depth of knowledge. She embodied an independent, confident and curious spirit that led her to travel alone to the U.S. as a teen; forge a career as a brilliant breast cancer researcher; join the Civil Rights Movement; introduce a generation of students of color to careers in science; and, through it all, raise two remarkable young women, by herself. That same, triumphant spirit was present when Dr. Shyamala G. Harris, after a courageous battle with cancer, passed away on Feb 11, 2009. She was 70. Born in south India, Shyamala's childhood was rich with music, culture, art and travel. As a young girl, she won a national gold medal for singing classical Indian music. The daughter of Rajam and P.V. Gopalan, Shyamala's father served as a diplomat in the Indian government. Through his travels, Shyamala developed a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and egalitarianism. Precocious and determined, she started school as a toddler and received her undergraduate degree at Delhi Univ. when she was just 19. She left home to study abroad at UC Berkeley, earning her Ph.D. in nutrition and endocrinology at age 25. Known by her colleagues as innovative, insightful, generous and loyal, Shyamala spent her early career conducting research at Berkeley's Dept of Zoology and Cancer Research Lab. She returned to the U.C. campus for the last decade of her work at the Lawrence Berkeley Lab. Her talent as a breast cancer researcher took her to universities around the world, from the Univ. of Illinois and Univ. of Wisconsin, to France, Italy, and a 16-year tenure at the Lady Davis Institute for Med Research at the Jewish General Hosp and the Dept of Med at McGill Univ. in Montreal. She made substantial contributions to the field of hormones and breast cancer, publishing her research in countless journals and receiving numerous honors. A frequent National Institure of Health peer reviewer and Federal Advisory Committee site visit team member, Shyamala's distinction led to her service on the President's Special Comm'n on Breast Cancer. One of her greatest contributions was her seminal work in isolating and characterizing the progesterone receptor gene in a mouse which was a momentous finding that transformed our understanding of the hormone-responsiveness of breast tissue. Her discovery sparked a plethora of advancements regarding the role of progesterone and its cellular receptor in breast biology and cancer. Perhaps Shyamala's most enduring legacy in science stemmed from her efforts as a teacher. Dozens of students populated her lab through the years. Often of color and the first in their families to pursue careers in science, these students eagerly sought Shyamala's mentorship, which often stretched beyond the lab to encompass lessons in life. Whether helping a student negotiate the UC bureaucracy, find an affordable apartment, or enjoy a home cooked meal, Shyamala was there. She took tremendous pride in their love of learning and later successes, as many grew to take on leadership positions in medicine and science. And then there were the quiet acts of kindness she performed without fanfare or notoriety, such as counseling and comforting African-American women battling breast cancer. Her passion for science was augmented by a fervent commitment to social justice. While a student at Berkeley in the '60s, she became fully engaged in the Civil Rights Movement, leading to a lifelong fight against injustice, racial discrimination and intolerance. She instilled these values in her daughters, who in turn have dedicated their lives to the pursuit of justice and equality - one as the first female elected District Attorney of SF and the other as vice president of Peace and Social Justice at the Ford Foundation in NY. But for all she accomplished in her life and career, the roles Shyamala cherished most were of "Mommy" and "Grandma." She relished every moment she spent with her daughters and her self-described "greatest gift," her granddaughter. The void Shyamala leaves is deep. Missed and loved by those she left behind, her spirit lives on in her daughters, Kamala and Maya; son-in-law, Tony; granddaughter, Meena; mother, Rajam; brother, Balachandran; sisters, Sarala and Mahalakshmi; niece, Sharada; and many extended family members and friends."

I've updated the family tree and added Kamala Harris' husband's side. I'm related through Kamala's husband's first wife though not closely.

https://gw.geneanet.org/marycummins_w?lang=en&p=kamala+devi&n=harris&pz=mary+k&nz=cummins&type=tree

Kamala Harris' paternal grandparents were "Maas" Oscar Joseph Harris 1914-1976 Brown's Town, Jamaica and Miss Beryl Finegan. I haven't been able to find much about them via records. The pic I have is over exposed.

Kamala Harris' maternal grandparents were P.V. Gopalan a high ranking Indian government diplomat and Rajam. P.V. Gopalan died February 16, 2011 in India. He was able to send his daughters to college then graduate school in the states.

Kamala Harris' paternal great grandparents were allegedly Joseph Alexander Harris 1874-1939 and Chrishy Christiana Brown. I base this on what Kamala's father stated. If that's the case they both appear to be descended from the same Colonel Hamilton Brown family. Kamala Harris' father stated the same. I'm not so sure of this as Hamilton Brown was white and Irish. His wives were white. Other children were white. Not only that but the original inhabitants of Jamaica were the Arawak tribe who came from South America. They were enslaved by the Spanish. They were basically wiped out by disease and war. That is why Spain imported many West African slaves to Jamaica. At one point slaves outnumbered others by 20 to one. Kamala's father claims his heritage is not from Africa.

Col. Hamilton Brown was born in Ireland 1775. He went to Jamaica to become a plantation owner growing sugar cane. At the time there was slave labor in Jamaica and Hamilton Brown was a slave owner. I see lists of slaves that he owned. They are all listed as either "Creole" or "African" but they are all "negro" with two "mulatto" females. Here are the names he gave to his slaves, i.e. males, March, Richmond, Hercules, Andrimaque, Sunday, Welcome, Jackson Dublin, Quashie, Gilblas, Goodluck, September, Fox, Caeson, Charles, Profit, Industry, Frank, Louisiana, females, Emmy, Matilda, Charlotte. He had 177 slaves as of 1832. Below is the "Former British Colonial Dependencies, Slave Registers, 1813-1834."

Kamala Harris, slaves owned by Hamilton Brown in Jamaica 1832

Ireland was against slave ownership at the time. Hamilton Brown told people in Ireland not to interfere in his slaves as they were better taken care of than poor people in Ireland or England at the time. There are mentions of slaves being whipped and beaten to force them to work.

When slavery ended in Jamaica in 1834 and slaves were freed the Brown's urged Irish people to come to Jamaica promising work. These newly arrived Irish basically became slaves due to low pay. Many also died from tropical diseases. The Irish was government was against this. At that time they also brought indentured servants, slaves from India to Jamaica. This is why Jamaica is a multi-cultural nation.

After slavery was abolished in the United States and slaves were set free they were able to choose their own last name. Many chose the last name of their owner. Others chose the last name of famous slave owners such as Hamilton, Brown, Washington and Smith. This is why these names are so popular. Perhaps that is what happened in this case in Jamaica. I don't know why else Kamala's father would brag that he is descended from slave owners and is not African. Whatever the case this is the data I found so far. The generations go from fully white English, Irish to the next generation being black. Check back as I'm sure I'll be updating it when I figure this out. I'm basing this on what the father said which could be, appears to be wrong. Based on what I'm seeing Kamala Harris is half African American with heritage via Jamaica. There is an outspoken African American who says she is not African American. Maybe this is a GOP plant just to attack Kamala. Her ancestry on her mother's side is correct.

Who is behind the fake Los Angeles Masonic Fraternal Police Department?

David Henry, police, masonic fraternal police, chief henry, los angeles, california, mary cummins, real estate

Why in the world would someone start a fake "masonic" "police" department stating they were the first police officers ever? What kind of crazy person states their organization is over 3,000 years old? Do they think we can't do math? Don't they realize it's illegal to impersonate a "police officer?"

I can only imagine that this was going to be some non-profit organization that would collect membership dues, have fake titles and some fundraising parties. Perhaps they didn't realize what they were doing was illegal besides bizarre.

The main guy is David Henry who is in the photo above. They were all arrested on perjury and pretending to be police officers. LA Times article link below. David Henry who states he is the "supreme chief" states he and his brothers are descended from the Knights Templar over 3,000 years ago. I'm sorry but 3,000 years ago I know where his lineage was and it wasn't in Europe. They are supposedly the "first police officers eva!" I think these people just started a private organization and got carried away.

He was arrested April 30, 2015 and bailed out on $85,000 bond.
