Kamala’s Failed Campaign Is $20 Million in Debt After Blowing $1 BILLION.

Vice President Kamala Harris‘s 2024 presidential campaign will end its failed effort to hold the White House for the Democratic Party over $20 million in debt. Federal Election Commission (FEC) data shows the Harris campaign blew through over $1 billion in just 107 days after replacing the 81-year-old incumbent President Joe Biden at the top of the ticket.

All in all, the 2024 presidential race was the most expensive in American history, surpassing both the 2020 and the 2012 elections. In the latter contest, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney raised over $1 billion.

While on paper the Harris campaign’s spending looks comparable to what Democrats have raised in recent presidential contests, the very short time frame in which it was raised and spent is telling. The high burn rate of campaign dollars only to face a resounding electoral defeat in both the popular vote and the Electoral College suggests voters were, by and large, turned off by both the party’s candidate and its message.

This notion is underscored by a study from the Media Research Center (MRC), which shows that Harris enjoyed overwhelmingly positive corporate media coverage compared to her opponent, President-Elect Donald J. Trump. According to MRC’s analysis, 78 percent of corporate media coverage regarding Harris was positive. Meanwhile, Trump received just 15 percent positive coverage—a 63-point Democratic advantage.

Positive media coverage is generally valued at three times or more the cost of an ad spot. When taken into consideration, the positive media coverage of Harris would suggest the Democratic presidential nominee could not win over voters even with a billion-dollar campaign and upwards of $3 billion in earned media coverage.

Biden Campaign Calls Canceled After ‘Garbage’ Smear.

The White House reportedly canceled several campaign calls involving President Joe Biden following his comments labeling supporters of President Donald J. Trump as “garbage.” According to guidance released by the White House the Sunday before, Biden’s schedule for Thursday, October 31, initially included participation in campaign calls. However, Biden did not take part in these calls.

Last week, Biden made headlines after a call with Voto Latino last Tuesday, where he referred to Trump supporters as “garbage” following a GOP rally in Madison Square Garden. The 81-year-old Democrat later claimed he was referencing a joke by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, in which the insult comic poked fun at Puerto Rico. Subsequently, the White House stealth-edited the official transcript of the call to support Biden’s narrative.

Despite Hinchcliffe’s joke, Trump has been endorsed by major politicians in Puerto Rico, and polls reveal that in Pennsylvania, the joke had no impact on Hispanic voting preferences.

In response to Biden’s comments, Trump incorporated a garbage truck and vest into a rally in Wisconsin, calling his supporters the “heart and soul of America.” Trump wore the vest during the rally, joking that people told him it made him look thinner.

No scheduled campaign events involving Vice President Kamala Harris are listed on Biden’s agenda before Election Day, tomorrow.

Earlier this month, at an event in New Hampshire, Biden made another contentious remark, suggesting he wanted to lock up Trump. The Trump campaign included Biden’s words in a legal filing calling for the dismissal of federal charges related to the 2020 election.

NBC Grants Trump Campaign Airtime During NASCAR, NFL After Harris SNL Spot.

Broadcaster NBC has granted the campaign of President Donald J. Trump a 90-second ad spot amig allegations the surprise appearance of Kamala Harris on Saturday Night Live (SNL) violated FCC rules. Harris’s brief appearance on SNL was for one minute and 30 seconds, allowing other presidential campaigns to request equal airtime—about 90 seconds—per FCC regulations.

Harris’s SNL sketch, featuring Maya Rudolph, concluded with both discussing the vice president’s campaign. The sketch, however, was criticized by FCC commissioner Brendan Carr, who stated before the show aired, “This is a clear and blatant effort to evade the FCC’s Equal Time rule.”

Carr also noted that SNL creator Lorne Michaels had previously stated in an interview last month that the show would not feature Harris or Trump because of the equal time rules.

Trump’s ad, meanwhile, appeared during Sunday’s NASCAR playoff broadcast. In it, Trump wore a red “Make America Great Again” cap and warned that electing Harris could lead to a “depression.” The ad urges viewers to vote.

Additionally, Trump received 60 extra seconds of airtime during NBC’s Sunday Night Football post-game coverage. The same ad from the NASCAR event aired after the game, closely following a paid campaign advertisement.

Republican Early Voting Surges in Pennsylvania Ballot Returns.

Returned ballots in Pennsylvania suggest that Republican voters are casting far more early votes than in 2022 and are leading Democrats in 40 counties, compared to just two in 2022. Over 587,000 registered Republicans have voted early in the crucial swing state, an increase of over 323,000 compared to 2022. Democrats, who are more likely to vote early, have seen a smaller increase since 2022 of just over 140,000 votes, for a total of 997,450 overall.

When looking at 2020 numbers, Republicans have 30,692 fewer ballots returned, but Democrats have a massive 721,276 fewer returned ballots. At the county level, the GOP led the Democrats in just eight counties in 2020, a number which fell to just two counties in 2022. This year, the GOP leads the Democrats in 40 counties going into tomorrow’s election.

Prior data indicates that newly registered women dominate the early voting in Pennsylvania, with many voting Democrat. As of October 30, the state had seen at least 100,000 new voters cast their ballots early in the election.

Polling puts Trump only slightly ahead of Harris in the state. The final Emerson College Polling poll released Monday, November 4, gave President Donald J. Trump 49 percent and Vice President Kamala Harris 48 percent, well within the margin of error.

Over the weekend, the Harris campaign implied it would force key counties in battleground states like Pennsylvania to keep counting votes until Harris wins.

The Trump campaign also won an important victory in the state after Democrats and police shut down lines of voters requesting absentee ballots, as a court allowed the absentee process to be opened for several days ahead of tomorrow’s election.

U.S. Non-Profits Investigated Over Terror Ties.

The U.S. House Ways and Means Committee is pushing state attorneys general to begin investigations into at least six tax-exempt organizations potentially linked to foreign terrorist activities. In a series of letters released earlier this week, Ways and Means Chairman Jason Smith (R-MO) notified officials in the states of Washington, New York, Virginia, Arizona, California, and Texas that certain organizations may be operating beyond their tax-exempt mandates, promoting antisemitism, and engaging in unlawful activities.

Chairman Smith notes that these non-profits all appear to be “operating outside their tax-exempt purpose, fueling antisemitic activities, and potentially engaging in activity that violates both state and federal law,” adding the grounds to revoke their tax-exempt status.

Among the organizations singled out is The Palestine Chronicle, a nonprofit media company in Washington State, accused of employing a Hamas operative. The operative was reportedly involved in holding Israeli hostages, leading to his death during a subsequent rescue operation.

In addition to Washington, New York’s Attorney General Letitia James (D) has been asked to look into the Westchester People’s Action Coalition and The People’s Forum. These groups stand accused of promoting antisemitism by allegedly supporting riots. Virginia’s Attorney General Jason Miyares (R) has similarly been prompted to investigate the Americans for Justice in Palestine Educational Foundation and American Muslims for Palestine for also potentially inciting riots.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) received a request to pursue the Alliance for Global Justice, citing ties with Samidoun, a U.S.-designated terrorist organization. Letters sent to California Attorney General Rob Bonta (D) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) also outlined suspicions regarding other nonprofits—including the Tides Foundation—and their possible illegal affiliations with terrorist groups.

ICYMI: Top Kamala Surrogate: ‘F**k White Women.’

Cora Masters Barry—the widow of the late Washington, D.C. mayor Marion Barry—slammed Democrats for being overly focused on white women voters. During a Zoom call with Rolling Out CEO Munson Steed, she emphatically insisted: “F**k white women.” The recently resurfaced remarks came in the lead-up to the 2020 presidential election and were followed by a racist diatribe by the black feminist and activist who has met with Kamala Harris and other White House officials dozens of times.

‘F**K WHITE WOMEN.’

“We have to change our strategy… got to get our people. We have to get our—they got their people. They got all the trailer parks all covered. All them people up in West Virginia and the hills, they’re covered. They got them all the way there to Wall Street,” Barry said on the call, complaining that Democrats were pandering to white female voters at the expense of black women.

She continued: “[Trump] did that, and we’re sitting here talking about the white women. F**k the white women—excuse me—forget the white women. They’re going to do what the white men tell them to do.”


Barry is an outspoken supporter of Vice President Harris, the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee. She also serves as a commissioner on Washington, D.C.’s Commission on the Arts and the Humanities.

“They be smiling in their faces, they want to stay in charge,” Barry’s racist diatribe continued. She added: “I don’t care nothing about them, we got to do what we got to do.”

PLANNING FOR KAMALA 2024?

During the same appearance with Steed, Barry and fellow activist Melanie Campbell appeared to back a Harris presidential run—stating the next president needed to be a black woman. “And that’s not going to happen if we don’t reach all of our black people, because they’re the ones who are going to put her in there,” Barry said. “Those white folks ain’t going to put her in there.”

In 2022, during a memorial event for her late husband, Barry heaped praise on infamous anti-white racist and anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam. “Minister Farrakhan, we love you more than you love us. You just don’t know it,” she said.

White House Caught Stealth Editing Transcript of Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Remarks.

The White House communications team is facing increasing scrutiny for editing an official transcript to make it appear President Joe Biden did not use the term “garbage” to describe supporters of President Donald J. Trump. Notably, Representatives James Comer (R-KY) and Elise Stefanik (R-NY) believe the White House may have violated the Presidential Records Act in editing the transcript—potentially a federal crime.

Late Tuesday evening, the 81-year-old Democrat referred to Trump supporters as “garbage” during a Kamala Harris campaign web call with the far-left Voto Latino group. The remarks were promptly aired on CNN, drawing almost immediate backlash and a confused response from the White House—including what appears to be two different transcripts.

The controversy centers on an apostrophe the White House communications team added to “supporters” in Biden’s remarks. The simple grammatical marking changes the entire context of what Biden clearly said in the video. In the video, Biden clearly states: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His, his, his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable.”

In the immediate aftermath of the scandal, the White House communications staff refused to go on the record about whether they spoke with Biden after the remarks or how they knew what he intended to say, sowing further confusion.

Across social media, the reaction from Republican strategists and Trump supporters was swift. Consultant and GOP strategist Matt Whitlock accused the administration of “flat-out lying” in the altered transcript.

Additionally, Reps. Comer and Stefanik’s letter to White House Counsel Edward Siskel notes he should “retain and preserve all documents and internal communications related to President Biden’s statement and the release of the inaccurate transcript.”

Trump Invites Muslim Man Ejected from Harris Rally to Star in Ad.

Over the weekend, the campaign of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris expelled a Muslim man from a rally in Michigan, prompting the campaign of Donald J. Trump to offer him a place in a new campaign ad. Ahmed Ghanim, a Democrat and former congressional candidate, was contacted by Donald Trump’s campaign about appearing in an advertisement shortly after being ejected from a Harris rally in Michigan without explanation.

Ghanim, who had challenged a pro-Israel member of Congress earlier this year, declined the offer but has been deeply critical of the Harris campaign. He criticized Harris’s campaign for inadequate engagement with Arab and Muslim voters, noting the potential benefit for Trump.

Ghanim had been present at the rally to observe, not protest, but was escorted out by security after being directed to leave. His subsequent social media post, “No Muslims allowed at the Harris Rally in Michigan,” drew considerable attention.

Ghanim recognized the strategic timing of Trump’s outreach to him, suggesting it might influence some Muslim voters.

In September, the mayor of Hamtramck, a city in Michigan with a Muslim-majority population, stated his support for Trump. Mayor Amer Ghalib called Trump a man of principles and expressed confidence in his leadership.

Earlier this month, a group of Michigan Muslim leaders also backed Trump. Imam Belal Alzuhairi stated that Trump could stop bloodshed from occurring across the globe.

‘You Cannot Have a Governing Party in This Country That Calls Most of America Nazis.’

The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief, Raheem Kassam, says the extreme and alienating rhetoric employed by the Democratic Party and their 2024 presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, is the “primal scream of a dying regime” and declaring over half the country to be Nazis and fascists makes governing nearly impossible. Speaking on War Room with host and former Trump White House strategist Stephen K. Bannon, Kassam encouraged voters to get to the polls and vote, emphasizing: “This cannot stand any further. You cannot have a governing party in this country that calls most of America Nazis.”

“The interesting part of it, I think, is that they are fighting themselves over this fascism stuff,” Kassam tells Bannon, noting a recent spate of op-eds and public infighting between Democrats over the Harris campaign’s extreme rhetoric. He continues: “You’re starting to see op-eds pop-up in Newsweek and stuff saying ‘Look, we cannot do that, it’s not working, it’s not right, it’s not fair.'”

HARRIS CAMPAIGN PANIC?

Dissent among some Democrats over the Harris campaign’s insistence on likening former President Donald J. Trump to Adolf Hitler and his supporters to Nazis does appear to be growing. The Future Forward SuperPAC—run by Joe Biden ally and liberal messaging guru Anita Dunn—has warned the Harris campaign that focusing too much on the ‘fascism’ attacks will likely backfire and hurt the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee.

Kassam goes on to note that the extreme attacks even implicate recent supporters of Trump. “And by the way, recent Americans who have come to Donald Trump—they either came through RFK, or maybe they came from Elon-world, or Make America Healthy Again-world—they’re now being called fascist,” he said, adding: “These are people three, four months ago the Democrats would have counted on their side.”

“Tulsi Gabbard was a Democrat—a Democratic Congresswoman; Robert Kennedy comes from the most storied family in modern Democratic politics; Elon Musk was a progressive and a Democrat for a long time,” Bannon interjected, emphasizing that the Democratic Party, “will go to any length to stop President Trump.”

Bannon’s Back: ‘We’ve Never Been So Powerful.’

Stephen K. Bannon returned to host the War Room after four months in federal prison, telling the establishment and the Democrats that he is even more focused than before, promising a “knockout blow” to the Democrats on November 5. The former Trump White House Chief Strategist went immediately on the offensive, pushing back at accusations that President Donald J. Trump and his supporters are “fascists.”

“I can tell you in coming from and being a political prisoner in a federal prison, that the young men in this country that are African-American and Hispanic detest Kamala Harris,” Bannon said.

Meanwhile, his message to former Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whom he holds responsible for putting him in prison, was: “This show has never been more powerful. The audience has never been more powerful. And we’re going to deliver a knockout blow to your progressive insanity on the Fifth of November.”

HIGH ENERGY.

Despite only being released hours before the October 29 broadcast, Bannon said he was “more energized and more focused than I’ve ever been in my entire life.” He noted that the Harris campaign’s ‘Joy’ message was “ill-defined” and that the Democrats have pivoted to a “Night falls on America” narrative, claiming the Trump movement is now a fascist movement. “That is a bald-faced lie, and it’s a dangerous lie,” he said.

Bannon was eligible for early release under the First Step Act in September but was kept in federal prison for his entire term after he was convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to obey the corrupt January 6 Committee.
