Trump called for a "major investigation" into Kamala Harris' disclosed, and undisclosed, payola payments to former celebrities for their useless endorsements.
President Donald Trump called for "major investigations" Monday into Kamala Harris's campaign payments to celebrities and entertainers who endorsed the Democrat's failed presidential campaign.
Trump singled out Harris campaign payments to pop star Beyoncé Knowles, rocker Bruce Springsteen, and other entertainers in a series of posts on Truth Social. Harris's team paid millions of dollars to those celebrities and others in hopes that star appeal would turn out voters. Harris's campaign paid Knowles's production company $165,000 for an appearance at a Houston campaign rally on Oct. 25 and $75,000 to Springsteen's company for a gig in Philadelphia on Oct. 29, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
"THIS IS AN ILLEGAL ELECTION SCAM AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL! IT IS AN ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION!" Trump wrote. "I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter. Candidates aren't allowed to pay for ENDORSEMENTS, which is what Kamala did, under the guise of paying for entertainment."
Trump did not say whether he wants the Department of Justice or Congress to investigate the payments. But any probe could shine an embarrassing light on the Harris campaign's finances as she weighs whether to run again for president in 2028. Many Democratic donors have fumed at the Harris payments to celebrities after the campaign burned $1.5 billion in just three months. In addition to celebrity payments, Harris doled out hundreds of millions of dollars to Democratic advertising firms and consultants, only to lose decisively to Trump in November.
According to campaign finance records, Harris's campaign paid $211,000 to the touring company of Latin singer Ricky Martin, $20,000 to the rapper Fat Joe, and $80,000 to R&B singer Victoria Monét. Most of the musicians performed at the campaign events. Springsteen gave a brief speech and a short acoustic set at a Harris event in Philadelphia on Oct. 29.
The Harris campaign has denied paying for celebrity endorsements, and said that any payments to entertainers were for "ancillary costs" for their performances. But that may not explain the exorbitant payments to entertainers who spoke at Harris events without musical performances.
Due to France's drug trafficking crisis, a large majority of French are in favor of the army being deployed into disadvantaged neighborhoods in problematic neighborhoods in France, including 80 percent of women.
According to a CSA poll conducted for CNews, Europe 1 and JDD, 76 percent of French people overall want the army called in to battle drug trafficking in "disadvantaged neighborhoods."
In fact, women are more supportive of troops being deployed than men, with 80 percent of women saying yes to the question: "Should the army be called in to combat drug trafficking in troubled neighborhoods?" In turn, only 72 percent of men supported such an action.
This may have to do with the fact that French women feel increasingly unsafe in their own country. As Remix News has reported, France has seen an incredible 86 percent increase in sexual violence in the last 10 years, with mass immigration fueling this trend.
In Britain, 44% say they feel like "strangers in their own country."
That was the plan all along.
A new poll reveals that 44% of British residents feel like "strangers" in their own country--an eye-opening statistic that appears to validate a position long championed by Nigel Farage's Reform UK party.
Key Details:
44% of respondents said they sometimes feel like strangers in their own country; 73% of Reform UK voters felt this way.
A strong majority (73%) believe more needs to be done to integrate people from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
The poll precedes Starmer's warning that the UK risks becoming an "island of strangers" due to collapsing community cohesion.
Diving Deeper:
A new poll from the research firm More in Common finds that nearly half of British residents--44%--report sometimes feeling like "strangers" in their own country. The findings come just days after Labour Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer took a dramatic rhetorical pivot on immigration, echoing warnings long voiced by Nigel Farage and his populist Reform UK party.
Starmer's blunt remarks last week--declaring that mass migration offers no real economic benefit to Britain's working class and risks making the UK an "island of strangers"--drew fierce criticism from the liberal political and media class. But according to this latest survey of 13,000 people, his warning struck a nerve.
While the survey did not directly tie the feeling of alienation to immigration, several responses suggest it plays a significant role. A commanding 73% of respondents believe more must be done to integrate people from various cultural and ethnic backgrounds, with 77% saying this is a collective responsibility.
In the daily Knife Attack Report from Germany, there's another wave of knife attacks. Dress accordingly.
Another wave of knife attacks has hit Germany, showing that not much has changed despite the many lost lives and Germans maimed in knife attacks. In fact, the statistics show that these crimes are even getting worse, with 79 knife attacks per day now recorded. A German criminal lawyer warns that Germany has "imported knife violence," in response to growing blade crimes.
In the last few days, headlines include Kosovar man arrested after knife attack in Germany injures three, including 12-year-old girl" "Man stabbed half to death on basketball court," "Manhunt continues after Syrian asylum seeker stabs 5 outside student bar in Bielefeld," and "Rioter injures police officer with knife."
However, thousands of such headlines have run in the German press in recent years, with Remix News reporting on many of them. The overwhelming number of perpetrators are foreigners or those with a foreign background, yet despite promises to crack down and enact deportations of migrant criminals, the bloodshed not only continues but appears to be getting worse.
Female teacher accused of sexually assaulting student half her age. Of course she shows herself to be a ratchet imbecile in her precious social media posts. And another teacher caught sexually abusing a child.
Someone caused a big collision on the I-5 and then... ran from the scene carrying their luggage. Hm, I wonder if they have insurance and/or a valid green card.
Democrat "men" are playing butch and no one believes them.
I'll skip the mention of David Hogg, who you are all unfortunately familiar with.
Among the ways Democrats are trying to stop hemorrhaging men voters is by elevating guys who exhibit some comically stereotypical sense of "masculinity," but who otherwise champion all the effete Democrat policies that the party loves and real men hate. Who knows! Maybe it'll work!
...
Another sure stud was showcased on Gavin Newsom's podcast last week, during which the California governor interviewed "gender scholar" Jackson Katz on how "Democrats win back men." I don't know about you, but the first person I'd consult if I wanted my party to "win back men" would be a "gender scholar" with an irrepressible lisp. During the eternally long conversation, Katz mansplained to listeners how real masculinity is instilled not through delayed gratification, self-discipline, and strength training, but through his training courses and educational seminars that he offers to corporations, athletic organizations, and even the U.S. military (though presumably that stream has dried up under the new administration). After going on at length about the endless shortcomings of men, Katz, who supported Kamala Harris, went on some more. "If women are smarter than men, if they work harder, if they're more talented, then they deserve the job," said the ladies' man. "It's like, you don't deserve the job just because you're a man."
Katz further appealed to young men by suggesting that if they don't care for what he or the anchors on MSNBC have to say, it's their fault. "And by the way, anti-intellectualism is deep in American culture, especially among men," he said. "The idea that if you're somehow smart, you're a wimp. Or you're condescending because you're educated ... But the idea that being, somehow, intellectual, being, you know, somebody who reads, who engages with ideas, somehow makes you weak and soft as a man or less than a real man, this is the most self-defeating idiocy that I could ever imagine. And yet, it's fed daily in the popular discourse, especially in, you know, right-wing talk radio."
But Katz is a white guy! He knows sports and has a tell-it-like-it-is New Englander accent! Yeah, maybe it'll work.
Nightmare creatures haunt our forests:
A group of transgender and queer activists unfurled a massive pride flag over El Capitan in Yosemite National Park Tuesday, calling it a statement of "solidarity" and "belonging." The 55-by-35-foot flag was quickly ordered down by park officials.
Key Details:
The stunt was led by a group of trans, queer, and ally climbers under the campaign "Trans is Natural."
The 55x35-foot flag is the largest ever flown from El Capitan, according to a press release.
Yosemite officials ordered the flag removed around 11:30am PST, citing no rule violations but expressing safety concerns.
Interesting look to try to push the "trans is natural" idea.
