More information about the financial priorities of Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign reveals rather hefty donations to some interesting organizations.

While President-elect Donald Trump was on the campaign trail talking to Americans about their problems and offering solutions, Harris’s campaign appears to have been making donations to organizations run by people who would go on to interview her.

As first reported by the Washington Free Beacon, the campaign made two $250,000 donations to MSNBC host Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, one in September and the other in October. On October 20, Harris would sit down for a softball interview with Sharpton.

The New York Times also revealed Sharpton wasn’t the only media ally to receive donations from the Harris campaign before an interview.

According to the report, Nu Vision Media received a $350,000 donation from Harris’s team in September before the vice president sat down with Roland Martin in October. Martin is a journalist who also happens to run Nu Vision Media.

“It should have been a hell of a lot more,” Martin explained to the New York Times. “More should have been spent on black-owned media.”

As Democrats hemorrhaged black and Latino support, the Harris campaign gave nearly $5.4 million to advocacy groups in hopes of scraping back some of those votes, according to the Free Beacon.

Harris’s campaign spending has come under scrutiny following her electoral loss to Trump as many try to figure out how the Democrat team burned through $1.5 billion during her truncated campaign.

Harpo Productions also received two $500,000 payments on October 15 after a town hall between Harris and Oprah, which came weeks before the two campaigned together in Philadelphia. The organization maintains that these payments were for production costs.
