Kamala Harris gave $500,000 to MSNBC anchor’s nonprofit before network’s fawning interview

Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign delivered $500,000 in donations to Al Sharpton’s non-profit organization, just prior to a glowing interview with the candidate on MSNBC.

Harris’s campaign gave two payments of $250,000 to National Action Network on September 5 and October 1, according to campaign finance records first reported by the Washington Free Beacon and confirmed by DailyMail.com.

Sharpton publicly backed Harris after Biden endorsed her to succeed him in his reelection campaign. After Sharpton’s organization received donations from Harris, he got a coveted sit-down interview with her just two weeks before the election

Harris appeared on Sharpton’s MSNBC Politics Nation show on October 20, exclusively aired on the cable network.

‘Donald Trump should never again stand behind the seal of the president of the United States, he has not earned the right. And that’s why he’s going to lose,’ Harris said.

Neither MSNBC nor Al Sharpton disclosed the donations to Sharpton’s organization during the interview where Harris spoke about issues pertaining to black communities. The National Action Network did not respond to a DailyMail.com request for comment.

During the interview, Sharpton asked Harris to react to the narrative that black men were not supporting her due to the misogyny in the community.

‘It’s just not panning out in reality in terms of when I go to last night Atlanta and have 10,000 people at a rally.

The Harris campaign increased spending with black activist organizations in the final weeks of the campaign to boost black voter turnout.

Sharpton pushed back against critics of Harris for branding her as ‘Kamala the Cop,’ defending her record as a progressive prosecutor, despite her record of prosecuting crimes related to marijuana in San Francisco and threatening to imprison parents of truant children.

‘You used to be attacked for being too progressive as an attorney,’ he said to Harris during the interview.

Sharpton has sided with the Democratic party throughout his activist career but at one time he frequently spent time with Trump as a prominent New York celebrity.

That all changed when Trump began running as a Republican for president.

In July 2019, Trump famously reacted to attacks from Sharpton by describing him as a ‘con man.’

‘I have known Al for 25 years. Went to fights with him & Don King, always got along well. He loved Trump!’ Trump wrote on social media. ‘He would ask me for favors often. Al is a con man, a troublemaker, always looking for a score. Just doing his thing.’
