DNC ‘drowning’ in nearly $16M of debt — and pointing fingers as failed 2024 Biden-Harris campaign haunts Dems
NYPost ^ | 12/24/25 | Josh Christenson

WASHINGTON — The Democratic Party’s principal fundraising committee saw donations slump in the second-to-last month of the year, recording just a $12 million campaign war chest and almost $16 million still in debt due to a loan taken out the previous month, Federal Election Commission filings show.

The fundraising doldrums come amid party infighting over whether to release a 2024 autopsy report on the failed Biden-Harris campaign and pressure ahead of the critical 2026 midterms, in which Democrats want to retake Congress.

The Democratic National Committee listed a little more than $12.6 million cash on hand, $10.7 million raised, and $15.9 million in debts in its FEC filing for November, with national Republicans accusing their opponents of “drowning” in their obligations to pay off bills.

That puts the DNC only a few hundred thousand dollars ahead of the Republican National Committee (RNC) for that month’s fundraising — but far behind the GOP’s $89.9 million cash on hand and lack of outstanding debts as both parties look ahead to the 2026 midterms.

The DNC chose last week not to release a 2024 post-mortem on Vice President Kamala Harris’ loss to President Trump, with party chairman Ken Martin suggesting the report’s findings would only be “a distraction from its core mission.”

Maybe they can run Harris again and she can spend another $1.5 billion every three months or so.

That debt seems minor considering
g we have about 1/3 of a Billion population, and Presidential campaigns can cost $1 Billion+.

$16 MM doesn’t seem like such a gargantuan pile of money for the griftologists of the DNC. They should be able to get that money out of the welfare system of Chanute, Kanasas.

Maybe Trump could help them out with some of the cash he’s gotten by suing the MSM—for a few concessions, of course.

Maybe some of the Minnesota Somalis would give them a little bit of their extra cash. They’ve got billions.

Why don’t they ask Tiny Timmy The Tampon man to lend them a couple billion bucks. His friends the Minniesammies supposedly have nine billion bucks worth of American taxpayer dollars.

The DNC chose last week not to release a 2024 post-mortem on Vice President Kamala Harris’ loss to President Trump.

Never was the word mortem use more appropriately. "Please run again Kamala, please please please."

After he bankrolls the WHO for his CCP friends, Epstein pal and vaccine expert Bill Gates should be able to cover that DNC shortfall with one of his Microsoft dividend checks.

He is called Tampon Tim for good reason. However, Tampons in the boys restroom is admission that that girls that identify as boys are in fact girls. The boys in the girls room that identify as girls should have equal and appropriate equality with prophylactics and lube. It is only fair. I am sure Tampon Tim would agree.

Translation: They don't want a baseline that the 2026 mid-terms will be compared against.

They'd rather leave it vague so they can continue to blame Harris and Biden after next year's elections.
