Recently I wrote about all the supposed support Blacks were giving to Kamala Harris. But there was this anomaly that I pointed out: they weren’t donating.
Prominent Blacks interviewed Harris, and even half-heartedly pretended to support Harris, but they weren’t bucking up.
Now we get this embarrassing news.
Why did Oprah’s production studio receive $1,000,000 disbursement from the Harris campaign?
That’s in the FEC records – clear as day.
Was Oprah paid for the assistance she gave Harris and if so, was that disclosed during that little town hall?

Jesse Watters pointed this out, and added a bit more about her podcast interview:
The Harris campaign paid Oprah $1 million to do that interview, and she spent $100,000 building the set of the Call Her Daddy podcast so Kamala Harris wouldn’t have to fly out to LA to film it. pic.twitter.com/rg0dthCR7c

What next? We find out that Harris actually paid to attend a Diddy party and had to bus in the participants?
How embarrassing for Democrats to find out that the Harris-Walz campaign is broke because it paid everybody, including Oprah? This certainly answers the question of why Oprah didn’t donate to Harris campaign as we reported not that long ago. At the very least if Harris was going to pay $1 million for the interview, then should have insisted that Oprah make a campaign contribution as part of the agreement.
What other unorthodox payments were made by the Harris campaign?
Well Beyonce is said to have been paid $10 million for her appearance in Houston. And I’m pretty sure that Harris paid Meghan Thee Stallion for her performance in Atlanta. Let’s hope both these women got the money upfront. I suggested that Beyonce didn’t, given that she didn’t perform in Houston, but only spoke for a few minutes. I’ve seen some aggressive “appearance fees”, but this has to be the largest, particularly without a performance.
What about those rally attendees?
The Harris campaign denied paying attendees, but they lie about everything. I’m 99 percent sure that the Harris-Walz campaign paid attendees, because of common sense evidence.
For example, the geotrack evidence from cell phones show that big percentages of the Harris rally attendees have been to multiple rallies. And not ones that are close by, but in different states. And what about all those buses?
Team Harris claimed that they provided bus service as shuttles from a remote parking area to an event. However, these buses can be seen traveling as a massive caravan all across the country from concert to concert. Excuse me, I meant “rally to rally”.
Embarrassing Campaign
Kamala Harris ran an embarrassing campaign. And now the Democrats want to second-guess. They ignore that their candidate performed horribly. From the “born into a middle-class” drivel to not answering any questions. The notion that Democrats would run such an unfit candidate should shake their foundation.
Harris missed on so many notes, the audience walked out. Politico noted that the campaign was criticized by its own party. They say that the campaign was poorly executed.
In key battleground states like Pennsylvania, Democrats noted the notable dissatisfaction over the campaign’s outreach to minority communities. As I joke, “Harris had one job!” Bring the Black vote. Obviously, she didn’t even come close.
Further the campaign’s management of local voter engagement lacked as well. Democratic leaders reportedly felt that the Harris team’s efforts were disorganized and ineffective, leading to concerns that the campaign was failing to mobilize critical demographics, like young Black voters and Latino communities. I find this laughable, given that these same complaints were lodged about Harris and the massive turnover in her VP office.
Harris is not a team builder. And Democrats expressed frustration that the campaign wasn’t leveraging local surrogates, like Philadelphia’s Mayor Cherelle Parker.
But what has also come to light is campaign spending. Some officials expressed worries that the Harris campaign was spending excessively without visible returns, creating what they described as a culture of disconnection from community needs. This certainly turned out to be true as we learned of Harris’ campaign shortfall.
Politico actually said that Harris’ actions contributed to a sense of embarrassment for Democrats and a disappointing turnout, especially in traditionally reliable Democratic areas. Embarrassment? Wow. It takes a lot to get Democrats embarrassed.
I’m sure I speak for many Democrats about the Harris campaign when I say, “I’m glad it’s over!”
