Kamala somehow ended her campaign with $20 million in debt

Ok so this just got very explosive. 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.

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.” — Kamala campaign adviser told me

Women aren't  good at following a budget   neither are politicians.  Add the two together and they will bankrupt you faster than p Diddy using a bottle of baby oil on a small boy.

Something like a billion dollars in funds? Maybe the pot was overly skimmed.
I was still getting donation requests yesterday in my e-mail for her and Walz. Discarded without opening.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Why should she be frugal with money other people are dumb enough to give her?  Spending other people's money is fun.

And here I thought these celebrity entertainers were doing it gratis because they support Harris.  Getting paid to appear for Harris is a clear abuse of funds. IMHO.

It was mostly all taxpayer $$$ to begin with so what's the big deal?

Kamala makes a few phone calls, trying to get some help with her debt.

Didn't they criminally prosecute President Trump for the celebrity entertainer he paid?

Wasted on all those celebrity appearances and concerts, and staff traveling around first class, as always.  And the ads...non-stop, obnoxious campaign ads across all social media and streaming services, as well as in the mail, every day!

How Kamala Harris plowed through $1 billion
By Gabe Kaminsky
November 8, 2024 7:00 am
Quote
In October, weeks before the 2024 election, the word was out: Vice President Kamala Harris had fundraised north of $1 billion. The haul, the New York Times reported upon breaking the news, was historic because of the short period of time, just three months, that it flooded in.

It was ultimately no use.  ...

The story of how Harris pocketed record sums while failing to gain support from voters will be studied by campaigns for decades to come. Democrats who successfully pressured octogenarian President Joe Biden to pass the torch to the former California senator are now conducting an internal autopsy of the 2024 race, in which Trump raised and spent hundreds of millions of dollars less than Harris. ...

The Harris campaign and its affiliated committees dropped more than $654 million on advertising from July 22 to Election Day, whereas Trump spent $378 million, or 57% less, in the same category, according to data from AdImpact.

Future Forward, the $500 million “ad-testing factory” and super PAC that supported Harris, was a reliable clearinghouse for checks from wealthy Democrats such as Reid Hoffman, George Soros, Michael Bloomberg, and Dustin Moskovitz. And anonymous donations, or so-called “dark money,” also benefited Harris at a faster and more substantial clip than Trump thanks to lax federal laws that progressives often criticize but, nonetheless, exploited in 2024 ...

Look at that and tell me how 378 million is 57% LESS than 654 million.

378 million is 57.8 percent OF 654 million.

Yeah, math errors bother me the same way.
