As of now, according to the Federal Elections Commission, the Democratic National Committee is in debt to the tune of $6,271,605.47. For the period between 2017-2018, total individual contributions to the DNC were $61,939,222.68, and its total cash on hand is $10,093,347.47. That is not good news for the party trying to rally momentum for a big “blue wave” this November.

Thanks calvincaspian. The DNC relies on undocumented cash and in-kind donations such as "independent" organizations / foundations doing attack ads -- as well as corrupt gov't employes at fed, state, and local levels, plus the steady drumbeat from Partisan Media Shills, who are in campaign mode every single day.
MILLIONS of in-kind contributions from fake news media.
Big deal. I see them rallying for hate in every state.
POTUS approval rating isn’t low.
It sounds similar to the financial situation that enabled Hillary to take over and manipulate the Dem party during the last election. Ripe for purchase.
The RNC might be better served trading some debt for some results.
Not panic time, but the November election is only 7 months away.
The Democrats’ Creed ---what they really believe (hat tip Michael Kelly)
Democrats believe President Bill Clinton. And have always believed him. Democrats believed it when Clinton said he had never been drafted in the Vietnam War and believed him later when Clinton said he had merely “forgotten to mention” that he had been drafted in the Vietnam War.
Democrats believed him when Clinton he said he hadn’t had sex with Gennifer Flowers and believed him later, when Clinton reportedly said he did bed her down.
Democrats believed the president did not rent out the Lincoln Bedroom to celebrities, did not sell access to himself and the vice president to hundreds of well-heeled special pleaders and did not supervise the largest, most systematic money-laundering operation in campaign finance history, collecting more than $ 3 million in illegal and improper donations.
Democrats believe that Charlie Trie and James Riady were motivated by nothing but patriotism for their adopted country.
Democrats believed President Clinton when he conceded that his administration mistakenly obtained the FBI files of more than 300 people, including many top Republicans and believes it was the result of a “completely honest bureaucratic snafu” involving security clearances.
Democrats believed Clinton’s chief of staff, Leon Panetta, when he told reporters that “obviously a mistake was made” and apologized to the people whose FBI files wound up at the White House. Democrats believed Clinton when he said “I completely support” what my COS Panetta said about the affair.
Democrats believed Vice President Gore when he said that he had made dunning calls to political contributors “on a few occasions” from his White House office, and believed him when he said that, actually, “a few” meant 46.
Democrats devoutly believe in "no controlling legal authority"....but not for Nixon or Trump.
Democrats believed Bruce Babbitt when he said that the $286,000 contributed to the DNC by Indian tribes opposed to granting a casino license to rival tribes had nothing to do with his denial of the license. Democrats believed the secretary when he said that he had not been instructed in this matter by then-White House deputy chief of staff Harold Ickes.
Democrats believed him when he said later that he had told lobbyist and friend Paul Eckstein that Ickes had told him to move on the casino decision, but that he had been lying to Eckstein. Democrats agreed with the secretary that it is an outrage that anyone would question his integrity.
Democrats firmly believe in the “Clinton Standard” of adherence to the nation’s campaign finance and bribery laws, enunciated by the president on March 7, 1997: “I don’t believe you can find any evidence of the fact that I had changed government policy solely because of a contribution.” Democrats noted with approval the use of the word “evidence” and also the use of the word “solely.” Democrats devoutly believe, as Clinton does, that it is proper to change government policy to address the concerns of people who have"given the president money, as long as nobody can find "evidence" of this being the "sole" reason.
Democrats believe president Clinton lived up to his promise to preside over the most ethical administration in American history that indicted former agriculture secretary Mike Espy did not accept $35,000 in illegal favors from Tyson Foods and other regulated businesses.Democrats believe that indicted former housing secretary Henry Cisneros did not lie to the FBI and tell others to lie to cover up $250,000 in blackmail payments to his former mistress.
Democrats believe that convicted former associate attorney general Webster Hubbell was not involved in the obstruction of justice when the president’s minions arranged for Hubbell to receive $ 400,000 in sweetheart consulting deals at a time when he was reneging on his promise to cooperate with Kenneth Starr’s Whitewater investigation.
Democrats believe, as Harvey Weinstein does, that Paula Jones is a cheap tramp who was asking for it, that Kathleen Willey is a cheap tramp who was asking for it, and that Monica Lewinsky is a cheap tramp who was asking for it.
Democrats devoutly believe Monica Lewinsky was “just fantasizing” in her 20 hours of taped conversation in which she reportedly detailed her sexual relationship with the president and begged Linda Tripp to join her in lying about the relationship and that any gifts, correspondence, telephone calls and the 37 post-employment White House visits that may have passed between Lewinsky and the president are evidence only of a platonic relationship.
Democrats believe that such innocent intimate friendships are quite common between middle-aged married men and young single women, and also between presidents of the United States and White House interns.
Democrats believed Hillary Clinton when she said Bimbo Eruptions must be put down and they approved the use of tax dollars for a White House office that for eight years demeaned, marginalized and lacerated any woman who dared besmirch reverend Bill.
The Democrats saw nothing suspicious in the report that the president’s intimate pal, Vernon Jordan, arranged a $40,000-per-year job for Lewinsky shortly after she signed but before she filed an affidavit saying she had not had sex with the president.
Nor did they read anything significant into the fact that the ambassador to the United Nations, Bill Richardson, visited Lewinsky at the Watergate to offer her a job.
Democrats believe the instructions Lewinsky gave Linda Tripp informing her on how to properly perjure herself in the Willey matter "simply wrote themselves."
Democrats believe, as does their savior Hillary Clinton believes, that The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, U.S. News & World Report, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS and NPR are all part of a vast right-wing conspiracy to malign the saintly Clintons.
Gee, that’s really outdated. But if it was brought up to date, it would fill hundreds of pages!
Soros, Steyer, Obama cabal. The money will flow.
“Soros, Steyer, Obama cabal. The money will flow.”
You are looking at a minimum of 100 million from Soros and Steyer. Obama will figure out a way to be a consultant and take 25 million of that as his fee.
The Fourth Estate (or fourth power) is a segment of society that wields an indirect but significant influence on society even though it is not a formally recognized part of the political system. The most commonly recognized part of the fourth estate is the news media, or press.

I believe the Susan Rice Video Room is on the lower level.
Ever remember the press lamenting Obama’s low numbers? No?
That's ‘cause news coverage is based on the press’s tawdry love affair with democrats.
“MILLIONS of in-kind contributions from fake news media.”
We must remember the Soros $$$ doesn’t kick in this early and Hollywood will be gearing up shortly.
The DNC will be flush with cash when it needs it.
$6 million is irrelevant compared to $1.5 billion for the last election.
Plenty of foreign corporate money exists to be wasted. They are setting the poor ol me stage ahead of time.
More like Billions in free airtime propaganda...
