Black political firms 'frustrated' Harris campaign isn't investing in minority businesses: 'Pretty insulting'

Black Democratic operatives are reportedly calling out the Harris campaign for avoiding minority-owned political firms in favor of White-owned ones.

NOTUS, a product of the Allbritton Journalism Institute, reported on a call made with Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign and Derrick Johnson, the president of the NAACP. According to a person familiar with the call, Johnson and others were frustrated by the campaign for being on track to spend less money on Black-owned firms than President Biden did in 2020.

Anonymous Democratic operatives and staffers criticized the Harris campaign for having no plan to increase spending on minority-owned firms.

"If Black voters are the base, it should be Black vendors telling the story," the person said. "We still didn’t really have any clear answers on anything."

A Democratic consultant also said, "It’s a little concerning to see that the spending is so [much] less, so far lower. I think it’s approximately one-fourth less than what it was at this point four years ago."

They added, "We skated by in 2020. And we’re not spending at the levels we were spending at then."

After speaking with more than a dozen vendors and staffers, NOTUS found that the campaign is largely ambivalent about "Black spending" despite record-level funding and the need to reach minority voters.

"It’s not just the media, it’s get-out-the-vote operations and grassroot operations. It’s 20 questions now when it comes to anything for Black spending. And what we’re talking about are a small fraction of what’s being spent for the general market. It’s getting pretty insulting," a Democratic operative said.

Current Harris campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond insisted to NOTUS the issue was a problem in the Democratic Party as a whole rather than the vice president specifically.

"Everybody who said it’s not about money, that’s a lie. It’s all about money," Richmond said. "They’re making noise because they want money and they want a contract, and that’s fair. It’s fine, and they should just say that."

Still, he emphasized the need to reach minority voters.

"I’ll answer it this way: I am trying to win a race, and I believe we have to touch voters. We have to touch Black voters and brown voters. We have to touch them with the people with the expertise to connect with them," Richmond said. "So I have been very dogged on making sure that that’s what we are trying to do."

NOTUS wrote that it is "unclear how much Harris is aware of the frustration," though she has allegedly raised the issue for both her campaign and the Biden campaign. However, it is not being "prioritized."

Fox News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment.

Data from the Howard University Initiative on Public Opinion found an overwhelming majority of Black voters supported Harris over former President Trump 82% to 12%. However, it found Trump’s support doubled to 16% for Black voters under 50, rising to 21% for Black men.

One crucial difference between Christianity & Islam that shows they don't worship the same God is.
God say's one man one wife, notice Jesus used singular WIFE not wives & two not three.

Matthew 19:5
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife:
and they two shall be one flesh?

While allah permits 4 wives

surah (4:3)
If you fear that you might not treat the orphans justly,
then marry the women that seem good to you: two, or three, or four.

Above all, while Christians & Jews have Moses 10 Commandments from God,
there is no mention of it in Islam.

This proves Islam & Mohammed dont worship the God of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob.

Exodus 3:6
Moreover he said, I am the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.

Now you know why moslems hate Jews & Christians

Surah 5:51
O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies.
They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you – then indeed,
he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not them.

allah is not the God of of Abraham, Not the God of Isaac, and NOT the God of Jacob.
Thus allah is NOT God.

Free Nnamdi Kanu ! Free Biafra.

The south have a slave mentality, which the igbos want to break.
Thats why many dont like igbos

My dear followers of mohammed.
Forgiveness of sin can only be found in Jesus.

Acts 5
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus,
whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour,
for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

Islam does not provide forgiveness of sin,
thats why mohammed does not know what will happen to him.

surah 46:9
I do not know what shall be done with me or with you.

Hope it will stop 💀mining

That tribalist & idol worshiping pastor of RCCG, that looks like she got high on Tinubu's drug

heysquare:
Confused set of people! In one part Jesus is the son of God in another part Jesus is God! And you want Muslims to take you as allies with the level of Christianity foolishness. The same Jews you people are supporting spit on you Christians because they hate anything Christianity

You reject Jesus as the Son of God but believe a stone can forgive sin.
Believe u need to circle a stone

Islam is a stone based religion


Islam is so far from God, that it makes u hate the children of the prophets

This is clearly satanic

heysquare:
Islam is everywhere even in your bible where you won't find the word Christianity or Christians

The only way Islam was referenced in the bible was as an antichrist.

1John 2:22 KJV
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

Islam & mohammed deny Jesus is Son of God, making Islam & mohammed antichrist


That's why Islam hates Christians & Jews

Surah 5:51
O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not them.

Islam is of the devil

Instead of selling your children to feed is it not better to persuade the Southeast to join the October 1st protest rather than discourage them? You claim you didn't vote for Tinubu hence you won't protest, yet hunger is making you sell your family members like goats at the market for survival.

The hardship in the land is not regional nor partisan. Let's works together to make the country work for the benefit of all of us

Mumu wetin SE get to do with druggie Tinubu?
They did not support the druglord in the first place, let those who voted him protest

AntiChristian:
What about Numbers 31:17-18?
How old were the women child spared for the warriors?

Yahweh supported Pedophilia too in Numbers 31:17-18! And it was no crime to save women Children for the warriors

God forbid, that.
At least you have differentiated between Yahweh & allah.

Nowhere in the bible do prophets marry babies.
We follow Jesus whom is sinless.

John 8:46
Which of you convinceth me of sin?

John 14:30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

Hebrews 4:15
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities;
but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

You follow a baby abusing mohammed.

Hadith Bukhari (6:298) -
Muhammad would take a bath with the little girl and handle her.

DISGUSTING

AntiChristian:
