Is there a source is this just DC scuttlebutt? It always only a marriage of convenience anyway, so this wouldn't be surprising. |

It's always interesting when the "smart, intelligent, most qualified, feminists" enter these marriages of convenience. Gloria Steinem, who famously said "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle," had a marriage of convenience with David Bales so that he could stay in the United States. Bales was British and the father of actor, Christian Bales. He overstayed his visa and Glo married him so that he would not be deported. |

You posted a source that says there is no evidence to support this rumor ! |

See how quickly the R’s lap up (and echo) fake news?
Does this ever make you more discriminating about your sources of information? Or do you see the internet just as a place to advertise your preexisting biases? 🤔 |

I’d like to see the campaign books the day after the election. They kept raising money after the election and are now suspiciously at exactly $0. |

What is suspicious about this? |

It’s exactly $0 after they continued fundraising once the election was over. Clearly they spent more money than they had raised prior to the election. |

Interesting. So, you're saying CNN is fake news? Vice President Kamala Harris’ defunct campaign, meanwhile, had just $1.8 million remaining in its bank accounts after spending more than $1 billion in a failed effort to defeat Republican Donald Trump. The Harris campaign reported no debts. But the filings with the Federal Election Commission overnight – which cover fundraising and spending between October 17 and November 25 – offer just a snapshot of the financial outlook for a party working to regroup after losing the White House and the Senate and failing to flip the House last month. Aides to key committees say they are still dealing with outstanding invoices and other accounting issues as they close the books on the costly presidential contest. A full view of Democrats’ finances might not be apparent until January when candidates, parties and outside groups file their year-end reports with the FEC. The filings show Harris burned through money during the final, intense home stretch of the campaign, plowing more than $270 million into the effort to win the presidency from October 17 through the post-election period. That frenzied spending in the final weeks of the campaign and Democrats’ aggressive efforts to secure donations after the election drew intense scrutiny and raised alarms that her campaign was grappling with unpaid bills. But after record-breaking fundraising, Harris’ campaign reported $1.82 million in cash on hand as of November 25. In the weeks since the election, Democrats have continued to bombard supporters with fundraising appeals, seeking more contributions. A fundraising email sent this week, for instance, from Harris’ joint fundraising committee with national and state Democratic parties, sought donations to a “Harris Fight Fund” program, which it said is aimed at electing “Democrats down the ticket ready to hold Trump accountable.” The fine print shows the proceeds going first to the Democratic National Committee in an effort to shore up the national party’s finances. In its filing Thursday with the FEC, the DNC reported more than $47 million remaining in the bank and no debts – despite recently shedding staff post-election. That’s in sharp contrast to the main super PAC that backed Harris’ candidacy for the White House, which ended the post-election period with nearly $50 million in unpaid bills, the FEC reports show. The group, Future Forward, listed $47.3 million in debts as of November 25, largely related to advertising expenses. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/harris-campaign-ends-race-with-1-8-million-part-of-a-mixed-financial-picture-for-democrats/ar-AA1vpO8W?ocid=BingNewsSerp |

+1 The PP continues to gaslight. Why on earth would a campaign continue to fundraise after losing an election? Because they were severely in debt and needed to fleece their rubes in order to pay it back. |

The debt was fake news. |

What I find so notable about all of this was how much more (grossly more) the Harris campaign spent on "entertainment," celebrities, GOTV, etc. than the Trump campaign - and they still lost. Proving once again how shallow and utterly vapid Democrats are.

These are just different types of payola. They paid celebrities for endorsements. They pay local party hacks and activists for GOTV, which is basically just walking around money. In other words, the Democratic party lost because it is rife with soft corruption. |

She didn’t have Elon Musk giving her $250M like Trump did.
