BREAKING: Here’s How Kamala’s Campaign Blew a Billion Bucks

So, you’d think if someone gave you $1 billion to run for office, you’d have enough left over for a little savings, right? Well, not if you’re Kamala Harris. According to Federal Election Commission (FEC) records, Kamala raised over $1 billion — and still managed to end up $20 million in debt. How? By blowing millions on Hollywood glitz and glam, apparently trying to out-star-studded the Oscars.

It’s not just a campaign, folks, it was a production. The Harris campaign forked out $20 million on “event production,” which just so happened to include appearances by Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, Katy Perry, Bon Jovi, 2 Chainz, and the Isley Brothers. The payments were creatively labeled “event production,” so we’ll never know exactly how much went into each performance, but let’s just say this campaign was more concert tour than town hall.

And then there’s Oprah. Kamala paid Oprah’s company, Harpo Productions, a casual $1 million after Oprah hosted a town hall. Nothing says “grassroots outreach” like a seven-figure invoice, right? When TMZ cornered Oprah about the payment, she claimed, “I was paid nothing — ever.” We guess that doesn’t count if it’s paid to your company instead?

The campaign didn’t stop at celebs either. Kamala also shelled out $3.9 million to a marketing agency to turn Instagram into her personal fan club, paying influencers to pump up her profile with the youth vote. It didn’t seem to work, but hey, at least there are some influencer posts out there with her campaign hashtag on them!

Of course, social media buzzed with rumors that Beyoncé got $10 million for showing up and that Megan Thee Stallion was paid $5 million to perform. While those specific claims haven’t been verified, with this kind of spending spree, it wouldn’t surprise us if they left the campaign with autographed bills.

So, what about the rest of that $980 million? Oh, just $654 million on ads (that’s more than double what Trump spent). Payroll was another $56.6 million (Trump spent only $9 million — maybe he should teach budgeting classes?). And after all that, Kamala still lost every battleground state. Even Democrats are shaking their heads, with DNC Finance Chair Lindy Li calling it a “$1 billion disaster.”

In the end, Kamala had a billion dollars and still ended up broke. Imagine if she were running the country’s finances! America, we dodged a big, glittery, debt-ridden bullet.
