Nina Simone's granddaughter says Kamala Harris 'bullied' her mother to the point she 'almost killed herself'

Legendary singer Nina Simone’s granddaughter accused Vice President Harris of causing the family to lose control of Simone's estate.

A 2016 settlement regarding the Nina Simone Charitable Trust refers to Harris multiple times for her "primary responsibility for supervising charitable trusts in California" as state attorney general.

"The Attorney General asserts that [Lisa Simone] Kelly breached her fiduciary duty to the Estate and to the Charitable Trust and wrongfully diverted Estate assets. The Attorney General seeks to surcharge Kelly for amounts totaling $5,937,749.42 plus over $2.5 million in interest, which the Attorney General contends is far more than one-half of the Estate's value during [Lisa Simone] Kelly's administration of the Estate," the settlement reads.

ReAnna Simone Kelly said there is "a lot of slander" about her mother Lisa Simone Kelly.

"I’m going to leave it at that for now. Do your research if you like, but know that there is A LOT of slander out there on my mother. There was a lot of false information put out there that is NOT TRUE. Listen. WE LIVED IT. We are still living in the aftermath of this," she wrote.

"OH WAIT, While we’re asking Kamala questions ask her why after all of this pain and suffering she put us through a Nina Simone song was sang at the inauguration to swear her in as VP?! She knew what she was doing," ReAnna Simone Kelly continued.

Is it moral to respect the wishes of the dead, above the living?

Barry Lam is associate professor of philosophy at Vassar College, New York state, and is Humanities-Writ Large fellow at Duke University in North Carolina. He hosts and produces the philosophy podcasts Hi-Phi Nation, and lives in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Imagine what a country would be like if every person could secure a vote in elections that happened after their death. If you stated your preferences in your will, you could execute a vote for the conservative, liberal, Asian, or White Separatist candidate, in every election, in perpetuity, and your vote would compete with the votes of the living. Imagine that a legal structure were erected to execute the wishes of the dead, and that the law would side with the dead even when their wishes conflicted with the needs of the living, or with the wellbeing of future generations.

We have overwhelmingly good moral reasons to reject such a society. We believe that with death comes the loss of the right to influence the political institutions of the living. Yet this kind of moral clarity disappears as soon as we move from politics to wealth. There is a huge industry dedicated to executing the wishes of human beings after their death. Through endowments, charitable trusts, dynasty trusts, and inheritance law, trillions of dollars in the US economy and many legal institutions at all levels are tied up in executing the wishes of wealthy people who died long ago. The UK does not fall far behind. As wealth inequality increases, the wealthy today are earmarking large amounts of money from the future economy to carry out their current wishes. The practice is so deeply ingrained in the culture of elite institutions, and such a ubiquitous feature of life, that only in obscure journals in law and philanthropy does anyone express concern about the justice of the practice.

Charity is a non-profit organization that provides assistance to society in many ways. The funds could be used to assist a group of people in another country, promote environmentally friendly products, or support sports and the arts. The charitable trusts goals have been divided into numerous categories, each of which can be given as a charitable gift under the law. It has been linked to issues such as poverty reduction and prevention, as well as the promotion of culture, the arts, science, technology, and heritage.

The charity organization's initial goal is to make the world a better place. United Sikhs is one of the best Sikh community charitable trusts in the world, helping to improve the world.

United Sikhs were created in 1999 by a group of Sikhs from the New York metropolitan area who came together to help immigrant communities succeed economically in Queens, New York. The United Sikhs community is now a grass-roots organization with branches in America, Asia, and Europe that aspires to spiritually, socially, and economically better impoverished and minority people.

The United Sikhs community, the world's best Sikhs charity, also serves as a gathering place for like-minded organizations to establish and nurture meaningful social, cultural, and spiritual projects and dialogues in villages, towns, and cities, all in the name of promoting harmony, understanding, and reciprocity.

The world's top Sikh community charity is always eager to work with and for society's poorest citizens. Even throughout the tough times brought on by the Corona Virus outbreak, the United Sikhs have continued to serve society.

The recent spike's unusual geographic dispersion made it risky, with experts warning that it could result in severe shortages of medical personnel and equipment. In hospitals, key medications for treating covid-19, a novel coronavirus-related disease, are in low supply. United Sikhs have partnered with New York Health + Hospital to provide a free COVID-19 testing program to benefit the healthcare system and ensure that everyone has access.

If you wish to donate money to a good cause, the United Sikhs are the best option. When you donate money to charity, the main goal is to help those who are in need.

Not only has the United Sikhs community worked hard to educate, motivate, and enlighten others, but it has also engaged in cross-cultural and social discussions to guarantee that everyone benefits from democracy's promises and advantages. Sikh charity donations help a significant number of people in need around the world, whether they need food, housing, education, or human rights.

Advantages of Charitable Remainder Trusts

Named a Barron’s Top 1200 US Advisor in 2018 and 2020 Ralph Byer is a Merrill Lynch managing director and financial advisor. In addition to his work at Merrill Lynch, Ralph Byer engages in philanthropic activities as a member of the Community Foundation of Broward, an organization that helps people set up charitable trusts. Charitable trusts allow people to donate capital to charities. These trusts take the form of either a charitable remainder trust or a lead trust. With a remainder trust, the charity receives ownership of an asset and controls it and its revenues for a time frame pre-determined by the donor. Charities can opt to receive capital from the trust monthly, annually, or over five years. Charitable remainder trusts are irrevocable and tax-exempt, and when the life of the donor ends or the trust expires, the assets are transferred to the charity. In a lead trust, on the other hand, the donor controls the assets, and the charity only receives capital based on the assets’ performance. One benefit of charitable trusts is that they enable the donor to preserve the assets for a long period, even after they die. Moreover, the donor does not have to pay capital gains taxes on the donated assets. Consultation with a qualified tax advisor or attorney is paramount.
