The Kamala Harris campaign reportedly shelled out $1 million to Oprah Winfrey for her involvement in the doomed presidential bid.

Oprah Winfrey — who is estimated to be a billionaire — appeared alongside Kamala Harris in a televised townhall-style interview in September and later at a rally in Philadelphia the night before the election where the former talkshow queen fear-mongered toward women, claiming that if they did not show up to vote, they might never get the chance again.

Winfrey also spoke during primetime at the Democratic National Convention in August, where she helped coronate Kamala Harris as the party’s nominee, shouting “J0000000yyyyy!” to the cameras in her trademark vocal vibrato.

The Harris campaign paid $1 million to Winfrey’s company on October 15, according to a report in the Washington Examiner. It remains unclear what the terms of the agreement were.

The revelation comes amid reports that the Kamala Harris campaign splurged big time on Hollywood celebrities, particularly the series of concerts involving Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Jon Bon Jovi, and others on the night before the election.

Those concerts, which were designed to motivate “low propensity” voter, cost as much as $20 million, pushing the campaign into debt even after it raised $1 billion from donors.

Since election night, when President-elect Donald Trump won a decisive victory, the Harris campaign has come under fire for relying heavily on Hollywood elites like Oprah Winfrey to stoke voter enthusiasm when it appears that the stars had the opposite effect — alienating large swaths of working class Americans who are struggling to make ends meet under the Biden-Harris administration.

President-elect Donald Trump’s landslide victory is reportedly causing infighting and division among House Democrats.

Democrats appear confused about why Trump won reelection in a landslide and moved 48 states to the right in the process.

The far left argues the party did not move far enough left, while establishment Democrats argue the push for far-left policies failed to attract voters.

One far-left House Democrat told Axios that “some real responsibility to be taken” by leadership in the establishment. “Just acting like we’re in a pep rally, saying, ‘You all did a good job. … I think it’s bullsh*t. Let’s acknowledge that we failed.”.

“Democrats are terrible at accountability,” one establishment House Democrat told Axios. “If we’re in the, like, think tank world, and all that matters is having nice ideas, then sure, maybe we can call that success.”

“I think the identity politics stuff is absolutely killing us,” another establishment House Democrat said. “Whatever you want to try to say about Kamala Harris and her record, you can’t try to claim she was a Joe Biden moderate. That’s just not accurate.”

The divergence of opinions within the Democrat caucus will likely bleed into the 2026 midterm elections. “People are going to their corners in the ring and saying, ‘We’re the winning corner,’” Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-MO) told Axios about the party’s future.

While chaos reigns, Democrat leaders are trying to influence the party’s direction. One takeaway from the election for some on the radical left is to blame Hispanic and black voters as misogynists. That theory was pushed by MSNBC co-host Joe Scarborough and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).

A second theory suggests the loss had nothing to do with Trump and more to do with Democrats being victims of inflation. That theory has been pushed by the White House, former President Barack Obama, and his former staffers.


MADISON, WISCONSIN - OCTOBER 31: Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Har

Failed presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris (D) is reportedly still asking donors for cash for several reasons as her campaign still wallows in debt.

The Daily Caller reported on Monday that her campaign is sending out fundraising messages even after she and her radical leftist running mate, Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), lost to President-elect Donald Trump (R) and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), on Tuesday.

The Caller’s article said Harris’s most recent message was sent to supporters on Sunday, per emails the outlet obtained.

“Each email claims, using slightly different language, that the ‘Harris Fight Fund’ is collecting donations to fund legal efforts and recount initiatives to help Democrats in close congressional races,” the report continued:

“First and foremost, we want to acknowledge the fear, confusion and sadness many of you are feeling at this moment,” one of Harris’ post-election emails reads. “As you read this, there are U.S. Senate and House races that are either too close to call, or within the margin of recounts or certain legal challenges. Can you please rush a contribution to the Harris Fight Fund program today?”

After clicking the donation link contained in the emails, prospective donors are sent to the ActBlue page for the Harris Victory Fund. The first $41,300 in donations from an individual to the Harris Victory Fund are sent to the Democratic National Committee (DNC), according to the fine print of the donation page. Only the next $3,100 in donations from a given individual are deposited into “Harris for President’s Recount Account.” The next $510,000 in donations from an individual donor are earmarked to be disbursed equally among the Democratic Parties in all 50 states and D.C., with any excess funds going to the DNC.

Sources said Harris’s campaign fell $20 million in debt during the last week of her campaign, Breitbart News reported on Wednesday.

“A Kamala campaign staffer confirmed to Breitbart News that reports that Harris’s campaign was ‘$20 million’ in debt are ‘real,’ adding that Jen O’Malley Dillon, the Harris campaign chair reportedly ‘blew through a billion dollars in a few months,’” the article read, noting that Dillon apparently was the one who pushed for the campaign to have concerts with celebrities such as Katy Perry, Lizzo, Eminem, and Bruce Springsteen.

On Saturday, Trump teased Democrats after they spent tons of money and incurred debt trying to defeat him by joking about helping them financially with his own leftover campaign funds. He wrote in a post on Truth Social:

I am very surprised that the Democrats, who fought a hard and valiant fight in the 2020 Presidential Election, raising a record amount of money, didn’t have lots of $’s left over. Now they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do.

“We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was ‘Earned Media,’ and that doesn’t cost very much. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump concluded.
