Breitbart ^ | 08/04/2025 | Nick Gilbertson

Democrats are planning to spend tens of millions of dollars to spin narratives on social media as part of a $110.5 million fundraising effort, according to images of slides from a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) donor event obtained by Breitbart News.

Under a heading “Urgent Off-Year Funding Needs” on one slide, it states the DCCC looks to raise $10 million for social media and content creation, $20 million for “Accountability work,” $15 million for “Voter Registration,” $5 million for “Recruitment” and “Primary Engagement,” and $2 million for “Research” and a “Rapid Response Infrastructure.”

One goal is to enlist at least 667 content creators, with the aim of reaching 83 million Americans and drawing 6.6 million engagements, per another slide that focuses on content creation. The program aims to engage at least 167 “Non-Political Creators” and 8 “Vetted Creators for ads in every target state.”

There will be what the DCCC calls a “Social Media Bootcamp” that runs for four weeks. The boot camp, which seems to be for content creators, will focus on “Customized social media evaluation,” “Platform-specific optimization strategies,” “Realtime insights on trending content and engagement Strategies,” and “Daily + rapid response content.”

The pro-Democrat ZINC Collective Super PAC is listed on the slide, implying its involvement with the boot camp. ZINC Collective lists Robby Mook, the campaign manager for Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 Democrat presidential campaign, as one of four key advisers, along with former senior adviser to Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Mike Smith.

I love how history is repeating itself. Remember the Democrat's response to the success of Rush Limbaugh and other conservative radio voices last century? Now it the start of the twenty-first century, with the rise of a different media platform...and they expect that dollars will get massive number of eyeballs and more to hear to their message.

I wait to see how the Democrats market their new outlets. More important, I wait to see the numbers.

It’s like tearing out the toilet media just to have a hole in the floor. Joe’s basement is already full of antifa dung. More of that won’t make a difference.

$110.5 million to double down on the Leftist Dems strategy to consistently lie through their teeth.

As long as we have guys like Trump around on the national scene to call their bluff EVERY TIME, it won’t matter how much they spend.

I hope the Leftist Dems go down the drain with all their wasted money. We need more “Trumps” waiting in the wings.

However, I look to the Hand of the Divine Providence of God Almighty to miraculously restore America’s Free Constitutional Republic like He miraculously birthed our nation in 1776.

Notice new terminology:

content creator = author

influencer = commentator

Air America Radio. It was a desperate attempt to copy Limbaugh's success. I used to listen for the ridiculousness of it. The Al Franklin Show always had some unknown person laughing in the background at all his jokes (so that we'd know what was funny). Rachel Maddow had her little slot to bash Republicans while trying to be funny. Mike Malloy was the craziest of the bunch, screaming and calling everyone on the right "rat bastards". They eventually went broke because no one was listening.

So more competition for already ailing legacy media that all repeats the same Dem talking points, literally repeating the same phrases.

Putting The View on YouTube isn't going to help.

Unfortunately, it will work on a lot of the mindless drones.

Of course, mindless drones vote Democrat anyway.

Thousands of these types on Tik Tok, Instagram, Youtube, Snapchat and Twitter have dramatically changed attitudes to Israel.

But clueless Boomers are oblivious, and can’t imagine anything except another Air America.

Repub billionaires could fund their own on social media, but they are too cheap and can’t see the immediate payoff.

Left billionaires are willing to invest for the long term.

Hey !... Who is it that has the “high time preference”, again ?...
