Report: Harris Campaign ‘$20M In Debt,’ Staffer Blames Campaign Concerts

According to surfacing reports and claims from a staffer, Vice President Kamala Harris’ unsuccessful presidential campaign was left with more than $20 million in debt.

Christopher Cadelago, left-wing outlet Politico‘s California Bureau Chief, originally made the assertion on X on Wednesday night.

“Based at the Capitol, Cadelago covers elections and political power, from the governor’s mansion to the players in Los Angeles, the Bay Area and Silicon Valley,” his bio reads.

“A Kamala campaign staffer who saw these posts called me just now and said there is a massive scandal here worthy of an audit. The $20 million debt thing is real. Rob Flaherty, this staffer said, is currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants it to try to raise the money back. This includes other campaigns and outside groups,” said Matthew Boyle, Bureau Chief for Breitbart.

“Flaherty is the deputy campaign manager and reports to Jen O’Malley Dillon. Jen blew through a billion dollars in a few months and it was all Jen’s idea to do all the concerts.” — [a] Kamala campaign adviser told me,” he continued.

The over-the-top spending was attributed to campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon, who prioritized “‘concerts,’ like Katy Perry, Lizzo, Eminem, Bruce Springsteen et cetera, at the expense of ‘prioritizing and spending money on social media and other campaign priorities,’” Boyle explained.

Kamala’s campaign ends $20 million in debt despite raising over $1 billion in just 107 days

Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential campaign ended $20 million in debt, according to a new report, despite having brought in $1 billion in campaign donations since ousting Joe Biden from the top of the ticket on July 21 and replacing him with his vice president.

Politico’s California bureau chief Christopher Cadelago posted on X Wednesday evening, “Kamala Harris’s campaign ended with at least $20 million in debt, per two sources familiar. Harris raised over $1 billion and had $118 million in the bank as of Oct. 16.”

A Harris-Walz campaign staffer confirmed the report to Breitbart, adding that Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon “blew through a billion dollars in a few months.”

Sore Loser Democrats Viciously Turn On “Stupid And Selfish” Biden

Desperately looking for someone to blame for Kamala Harris not being a competent candidate and losing to president Trump in a massive landslide, Democrats have aggressively turned on Joe Biden.

Reuters notes that one Democratic donor asked “Why did Joe Biden hold on for as long as he did? He should have not concealed his (health) and dropped out a lot sooner.”

Another Democratic official blamed “malpractice” by Biden’s inner circle, stating “No one would tell him ‘no’,” and slating the White House communications and political teams.

“So it’s Joe, but also Joe’s core apparatus. Stunning and well documented chickens coming home to roost,” the official added.

The article further notes that a Kamala aide complained that her campaign was “doomed from the start by her loyalty” to Biden.

Kamala made a big deal about Trump being ‘out for himself.’ Then she abandoned her supporters on election night …

They knocked on doors for her. They phonebanked. They bused themselves to her rallies and stuck to her side her even after she cheated them of their promised Beyonce concert.

They gathered together for their Kamala Harris victory party at Howard University in Washington. And when victory didn’t happen, she abandoned them.

She has yet to make a statement for them, thanking them for their hard work, encouraging them to keep up the good fight, or telling them wait’ll next time.

Some guy named Cedric Raymond eventually came out around 1:00 in the morning and told them she wouldn’t be speaking to them tonight.

She just left, flew the coop, same way Hillary Clinton did to her supporters on the night Donald Trump defeated her in 2016, leaving them hanging. She has yet to concede the election, let alone congratulate President Trump, but that’s just her being her.

Which is pretty ironic. One of her main campaign arguments against President Trump was that he was selfish, “in it for himself.”

Turns out Harris was the one in it for herself. Trump, whom she accused of such behavior, took a bullet for us, forewent a salary, and endured a slew of lawfare that would have broken the spirit of anyone, never, ever, abandoned his supporters, nor was he ever that kind of selfish. Harris, though, is.

And in that petty selfishness, it’s possible to see the kinds of errors that actually cost her the election, driving voters to Trump.

What were the things that did her in?

They often talk of her word salads, but canned responses were probably even more problematic.

Kamala Harris Campaign Fell $20 Million in Debt in Final Week

Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign fell $20 million in debt during the final week of her campaign, according to several sources.

Christopher Cadelago, the California bureau chief for Politico wrote in a post on X that Harris’s campaign had “ended with at least $20 million in debt,” according to two sources familiar with the situation.

“Harris raised over $1 billion and had $118 million in the bank as of Oct. 16,” Cadelago added in his post.

A Kamala campaign staffer confirmed to Breitbart News that the reports that Harris’s campaign was “$20 million” in debt “is real,” adding that Jen O’Malley Dillon, the Harris campaign chair reportedly “blew through a billion dollars in a few months.”

The concerts that the Harris campaign held with celebrities such as Katy Perry, Lizzo, Eminem, and Bruce Springsteen were reportedly “all Jen’s idea,” the campaign staffer explained.

“Jen blew through a billion dollars in a few months, and it was all Jen’s idea to do all the concerts,” the campaign staffer said.

As a result of being $20 million in debt, Rob Flaherty, the deputy campaign manager for Harris’s campaign is reportedly “currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants” to try to raise the money back for the campaign, the staffer told Breitbart News.

Donald Trump Won Because Kamala Harris Is Joe Biden but Worse

Donald Trump has once again won the presidency—and has done so convincingly.

In the coming days and weeks, commentators will spill considerable ink trying to make sense of this result. Mainstream media figures must grapple with the fact that a seemingly disgraced, twice-impeached, convicted felon—one frequently derided as a fascist and a racist—was reelected president. Moreover, he made major inroads with minority communities, vastly improved his totals in various states, and is currently projected to win the popular vote. Make no mistake: This is a significant win for someone deemed not merely unelectable but wholly evil by every elite media institution in existence.

Pundits trying to understand how Trump could have possibly achieved this unthinkable comeback will focus on his message, his issues, and his campaign strategies. They will investigate the aspects of Trump that make him so appealing to throngs of Americans. But they might overlook the single most important contributing factor in Trump’s victory: not an affirmative vote for the candidate, but rather a negative endorsement of his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.

Simply put, Harris was a disastrous candidate. Admittedly, she had a tough job, given that she replaced the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee—President Joe Biden—in the eleventh hour. But keep in mind that Biden was historically unpopular. He bottomed out at a 38 percent approval rating, which made him the least popular president in 70 years. Some of that disapproval was due to his advanced age and obvious cognitive decline, and in that respect, Harris was an automatic improvement.

But the fundamental mistake of the Harris campaign—the one that assured Trump’s reelection no matter how improbable it seemed to elite tastemakers—was assuming that a simple candidate swap would be sufficient. This was egregiously wrong. Biden was not merely unpopular because he was too old to serve as president. He was unpopular because the American voters dislike his policies. On the issues that mattered most to voters­—the economy, inflation, and immigration—majorities of voters solidly preferred Trump over Biden, well before the June debate performance that doomed the incumbent president’s candidacy. Voters remembered the Trump economy fondly and blamed Biden’s policies for ever-worsening inflation.

Once Harris was installed as the candidate, she had the opportunity to engage in a reset. While she always faced the inherent difficulty of distancing herself from an administration in which she served, she had every opportunity to throw Biden under the bus and part ways with his policies. She could have criticized his economic setbacks, his foreign policy—which was especially unpopular in the must-win state of Michigan—and his border program.

Voters Didn’t Reject Women, They Rejected Kamala Harris

Kamala Harris is the loser of the 2024 presidential election. Donald Trump has 277 electoral votes, according to the Associated Press, with several states still left to be decided, but also leaning in Trump’s direction. Even in reliably Democratic strongholds, Harris underperformed.

For instance, Harris won New York, but by a mere 11-point margin as of press time; in 2020, Biden’s margin there was 23 points. Harris and Trump were neck and neck in Hidalgo County, Texas—a heavily Latino county that both Biden and Hillary Clinton handily won. NBC News exit polls suggested Harris experienced significant losses with Latino voters, who went 65 percent for Biden then but were breaking only 53 percent for Harris.

Already, some people are chalking Harris’ loss up to sexism, misogyny, and racism.

Surely some voters were motivated by these things, as some people always are. But one needn’t imagine a mass hate wave to explain Trump’s victory.

In the weeks leading up to the election, candidate Harris struggled to define herself as polls repeatedly showed little daylight between her and Trump. Often, it seemed that Trump’s flaws were Harris’ main selling point. She was not Trump. But, who was she? Even Harris herself seemed scared to say.

Throughout her brief campaign, Harris strenuously avoided laying out detailed plans or positions, outside of protecting abortion access. She had an especially hard time articulating how her administration would be different from the not-terribly-popular Joe Biden presidency or how she would turn things like inflation around.

This struggle to differentiate herself from Biden makes sense in light of her career history. She’s probably best understood as an ambitious vessel for whatever drives Democratic voters in a given era. She represents the Democratic Party establishment through and through.

If Harris has any personal political priorities or animating ideology at her core, they’ve been buried so deep by this point as to basically be undetectable—entirely subsumed by skilled pandering to the progressive zeitgeist. That’s why Harris has a reputation as a flip-flopper. That’s why she spent much of her short 2024 campaign walking back positions she took during the quite-different political days of 2019 and 2020. And it’s why she tried hard not to stake out strong positions on most issues this time around.

Yes, Harris had reproductive rights on her side. But while that’s been a huge issue this election, it’s only one issue—and not even one where Trump, who says he doesn’t want a nationwide abortion ban, totally disagrees.

“Classless – A Sore Loser” – Former White House Staffer Disgusted with Kamala’s Behavior After She Refuses to Address Her Supporters on Election Night 

Former White House staffer says Kamala Harris’s actions following her loss last night to President Donald Trump was “classless” and reveals she’s a “sore loser.”

Kamala went to bed early and did not even address the thousands of supporters at Howard University in Atlanta who came out to celebrate her expected victory last night.

Barbara Heineback: I am so disappointed and really insulted that I’m a Howard alum and that she didn’t have the decency to walk out and say to her, to her university, make a comment to the United States. Things were not looking well for her. It wasn’t completely over, but short of a miracle, we knew which way this was going, and that she didn’t have some grace.

I mean, it shows us how classless she actually is, a sore loser. Even though it’s painful for her, for the Democrats, I think America might be relieved at recognizing and realizing they don’t have to put up with this any longer. If this is what they were walking into, maybe it’s better that it gets cut at the nip right now.

She’s such a poor candidate, Barbara. She’s such a poor candidate. Of course, she was a surprise pick for vice president as the running mate for Joe Biden, but he said he was going to pick a woman of color, and she got the gig. She’s never won an election of any this would have been the first one if she did, didn’t get a vote when she contested the primaries.

Sky News host: Why do you think she’s failed? What was the biggest mistake of the Democrat campaign?

Barbara Heineback: The biggest mistake was her not selecting Shapiro. She had an ace in the hole, and she didn’t take that. Shapiro is so well respected, liked. He’s doing an incredible job in Pennsylvania. The reason she didn’t take it is another part of that personality that eeked through. She is so completely insecure that she could not have someone that bright around her to upstage her and outshine her. This is why she didn’t select him, I’m pretty sure. She made a lot of mistakes by bringing on all of Hollywood and Beyoncé and all of those people. But they always do that. Beyoncé wasn’t very happy.

Kamala Claims She Will Legalize Recreational Marijuana in Last-Ditch Vote Pandering Scheme After JAILING People for Pot Possession

Kamala Harris took to social media on Sunday, just days before Election Day, with a claim that she will legalize recreational marijuana. Unfortunately for the Democrat presidential hopeful, she made her career on locking up individuals who were in possession of small amounts of weed.

“I will legalize recreational marijuana, break down unjust legal barriers, and create opportunities for all Americans to succeed in this new industry,” Harris said in a social media post on Sunday.

1,560 people were sent to state prison for marijuana-related offenses in California under then-state attorney general Harris.

“Under Harris’s six-year tenure, hundreds were sent to state prisons for marijuana-related offenses, crime records show,” The Washington Free Beacon said in 2019.

On a debate stage in Detroit, Michigan in 2019, Tulsi Gabbard, then a Hawaii representative and rival for the Democratic nomination lambasted Harris over her anti-pot record.

Joe Rogan: “It’s Amazing How Many People on the Diddy Party List Are Supporting Kamala”

In his recent podcast episode with Elon Musk, Joe Rogan highlighted how many celebrities and athletes on Diddy’s party list are now endorsing Kamala Harris.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, was arrested on Federal sex trafficking charges in September and has since been accused in several lawsuits of raping children as young as 10 years old.

Rogan shared with Musk, “It’s just amazing how many people on the Diddy party list are supporting Kamala.”

Musk responded, “J Lo (Jennifer Lopez) was his ex-girlfriend and is now warning people against Trump. How many people did she warn against Diddy?”

“Oh, zero; maybe we shouldn’t trust her opinion.”

Musk’s comments come after singer Jennifer Lopez, who was once Diddy’s girlfriend, endorsed Kamala Harris.
