Clashes, confusion and secrecy consume the Harris campaign's finances
NBC News ^ | Nov 14, 2024 | Natasha Korecki

If Kamala Harris' campaign was known for anything, it was its blockbuster fundraising. In just a matter of months, it crossed the $1 billion mark, in a stunning and record-breaking pace.

Now, less than a week since the vice president conceded the contest, it not only has run out of money, it’s still asking for more. The campaign emails and texts, known for their ubiquity throughout the election, aren’t expected to stop anytime soon.

The overarching challenge at this point for what is left of Harris' campaign is that the financial picture is shrouded in mystery — even for those within the organization. No one can — or will — spell out a clear status of its finances. Reports have surfaced about debt that’s reached into the tens of millions of dollars — a narrative that’s taken on a life of its own in conservative media and, much to the dismay of donors, even brought a troll from Donald Trump over X.

They’re Democrats. If their finances were on the up-and-up THAT would be suspicious and remarkable. They lie and cheat about EVERYTHING. This doesn’t need to be a news story.

Imagine how much was skimmed by “consultants”.

Probably a good part of it. If consultants make a $1000 an hour, one can burn through a lot of money very quickly.

While Kamala was demonstrating to the world what an asinine fool she is and her campaign was going down the crapper
her ‘associates’ were diverting multi millions from her campaign into their own pockets.

Only thing surprising to me is it looks like NBC may have actually done real news reporting.

Harris Gave $500k to Al Sharpton’s Nonprofit Just Weeks Before his Glowing remarks.
Sharpton touted Harris's 'extraordinary historic campaign' in an interview after her "donation."

Hopefully some of her big money donors will feel they’ve been had and demand an audit.

Quite a lot of Kamala’s money came from abroad laundered through Act Blue. If anyone has a complaint it would be the red ChiComs. 500k to Rev Al? The old race baiter’s extortion racket rolls on.

The Right Rear-End Al Sharpton. Sleazy race-hustler, but even he can’t convince me that Kamala is black.

This describes the heart of the 'Rat Party = $$$$$$$
Unhappily that political party has found access to unlimited sources of money that represents only special interests - UNLIMITED❗

Thank God Kamala Airhead did not obtain the White House! We could not have survived that.

Da 'rev' Al Sharpton - pro-Gay Marriage, pro-Abortion - a perfect fit for Christ-denier Kamala Harris

Confusion? What's the problem....are mainstream “journalists” mistaking the Chinese characters seen on many wire transfers for Greek characters?

If the “Rev.” Not-so-Sharpton is in the vicinity, you know that money is being distributed.

Gotta give old Al a plus for skillful marketing and maneuvering the cash haul from Ms. K to his bank. /sarc

Have any of those 88,000 IRS agents taken notice?
