Supporters applaud as U.S. Democratic presidential candidate, U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., speaks at a house party in Gilford, N.H., Sunday, July 14, 2019. WASHINGTON -- Kamala Harris bemoaned the influence of the powerful and connected elite last Tuesday when she called on top Justice Department officials to recuse themselves from any matter related to Jeffrey Epstein.

"If any connection with Kirkland and Ellis is a stain on , why isn't a connection with the law firm for the receipt of campaign contributions a stain on her own campaign?" said Paul S. Ryan, an attorney for the good government group Common Cause. The new attention being paid to the case has also drawn attention to Attorney General William Barr and Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, who both worked for Kirkland and Ellis. Harris, who is a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said it's necessary that they recuse themselves from involvement in the matter to avoid even the "appearance of impropriety."
