A star-studded virtual fundraiser for Kamala Harris, titled 'Comics for Kamala', is set for August 5 at 8 p.m. ET, featuring comedians like Ben Stiller, Cecily Strong, Patton Oswalt, and Kathy Griffin as part of a broader effort to support her presidential campaign. Organized by Rep. Eric Swalwell, the event follows a series of successful fundraising calls for Harris, including a 'White Dudes for Harris' event that raised over $4 million. Swalwell emphasized that President Biden's withdrawal has energized supporters and highlighted Harris's fun-loving personality despite criticism of her demeanor. The Harris campaign has seen unprecedented fundraising success, amassing over $300 million since her announcement, and has garnered significant celebrity endorsements. The event will be free, but donations are encouraged to bolster Harris's campaign efforts. This gathering reflects ongoing enthusiasm from Hollywood elites for Harris, contrasting with their previous ambivalence towards Biden.
