This information comes to light amidst reports that the Harris Campaign has already dispatched VP vetting documents to Senator Kelly.
As reported by Gateway Pundit, the Daily Mail unveiled that Senator Kelly had sent a text message to his daughter, Claire Kelly, in 2020, advising her to remove posts related to drugs and sex. One such post was a video on Instagram displaying illicit drugs, captioned by Claire as, “P***y molly weed.”
The possession of Molly, a street name for Ecstasy or MDMA, is considered a felony in Arizona, where Senator Kelly serves. This fact underscores the gravity of the situation, given the potential legal implications.

In the text message exchange that Claire subsequently uploaded, Senator Kelly can be seen expressing his concern. He wrote, “Been busy today. Got 1 call and 2 emails about your Instagram account. I’m not interested in looking but I suspect what you posted would not be in anyone’s best interest. At least not yours or mine.” Claire's response to her father's warning was dismissive, as she replied, “No, my Instagram is fine.”

The Daily Mail further reported that when Claire Kelly, then 23, posted the video on Instagram showing what appears to be marijuana and ecstasy, her father, a newly elected Democratic Senator, seemed to anticipate the potential backlash.
