DNC Takes Out $15 Million Loan During Donation Shortfall as Midterms Approach
Breitbart ^ | November 21, 2025 | Amy Furr

Posted on 11/21/2025 9:07:22 AM PST by Red Badger

The Democrat National Committee (DNC) has taken out a huge loan in anticipation of next year’s midterms as the party lacks leadership with nothing to show for shutting down the government.

Politico on Thursday cited a filing with the Federal Election Commission regarding the $15 million loan.

“The national party committee framed the line of credit as an early investment to boost its candidates in New Jersey and Virginia earlier this month, and help build up state parties ahead of next year’s midterms. But the need for a loan still puts the DNC in sharp contrast with its GOP counterpart, the Republican National Committee, which was sitting on $86 million at the end of September,” the outlet said.

Politico noted the organization had taken out loans in the past, “although usually not this early in the cycle or of this magnitude all at once.”

The news comes on the heels of Senate Democrats caving on government funding after a drawn-out shutdown, with Breitbart News adding they received nothing of substance in return.

Over a week into the shutdown, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said the Democrat Party is “utterly rudderless” and called out Democrats for playing “costly political games.”

The DNC reportedly spent over $$15 million in 2025 to pay off former Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign expenses. Harris and her running mate, leftist Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), lost to President Donald Trump in 2024.

“Breitbart News reported that while Harris’s presidential campaign raised over $1 billion, in the final week of her campaign, her campaign fell $20 million in debt,” per the Breitbart News article.

Exactly. I’m thinking of this as one crime family borrowing money from another. Risky business.

The idiots are the voters who can’t bother to get off their asses to vote in the primaries nor the general elections.

Apathy is the biggest enemy of this country.

Elected Democrats know their voters well. Just insert the name “Trump” into any issue and it’s a winning one for them.

Worked like magic out in California where the already dominant Democrat Party empowered themselves even more by using Trump to galvanize their sheeple into passing Prop 50 overwhelmingly.

It’s telling that some Leftist mega-billionaire (and there’s plenty of them) didn’t step in and write them a check.

It would be pocket change for them, and yet they didn’t do it. Even the elite Leftists have stepped away from the lunacy of the Democrat party?

Well, at least they’ve still got the media after their USAID fraud money has mostly dried up.

Whether it's Jeb Bush or a democrat running for president, they spend money like it grows on trees. President Trump showed how you can campaign on a budget. He only lost to Biden because the democrats manufactured a boatload of ballots (eg Philadelphia where they had unfolded mail in ballots), and what did that cost them?

What gets me is the overwhelming support Prop 50 got in Pacific Palisades.

IMHO this is gaslighting so we don't see the foreign money coming in for the Dims.

No worry.

It was a student loan so will never be paid back.
