Italian Americans for Harris: An Offer You Can Refuse

Identity-based Zoom fundraisers are all the rage among Harris-Walz supporters, so Sunday night's "Sunday Sauce Kickoff," organized by Paisans for Kamala, was as inevitable as a tomato sauce stain on a white dress shirt. The event was touted as a virtual old-style Italian family dinner and Alyssa Milano from Who's the Boss was supposed to be there, so I RSVPed right after Mass.

Ben Stiller, Jason Bateman, John Stamos top list of celebrities on latest Zoom call fundraiser for Kamala Harris



Comedians and actors will gather on a Zoom call Monday night in hopes of adding to a growing fundraising trend for Vice President Kamala Harris.

After hosting other race-centric Zoom calls titled "white women for Kamala" and "white dudes for Kamala," the Harris campaign decided the online calls to action were successful enough to necessitate moving forward with the format.

At 8 p.m. ET, a bevy of left-wing comedians will join an online call called "Comics for Kamala," with hopes of raising funds for the vice president who recently became the presidential candidate for the Democrats.

'President Biden so graciously stepping aside and passing the torch has just energized so many people.'

Ben Stiller, Jason Bateman, John Stamos, and Nick Offerman are some of the biggest celebrities signed up for the event, per Deadline. Other recognizable names include actors Jon Hamm ("Mad Men"), David Koechner ("Anchorman"), and Craig Robinson ("Brooklyn Nine-Nine").

Known Democratic activists such as Patton Oswalt, Kathy Griffin, Tom Arnold, D.L. Hughley, and Rosie O'Donnell are also on the billing.

The aforementioned "white dudes for Harris" call reportedly raised over $4 million after sporting celebrities like Jeff Bridges and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, along with politicians such as Democratic governors Tim Walz (Minn.) and Roy Cooper (N.C.). Participants shared different stories about being traumatized by the Trump presidency and expressed why they felt it was paramount that Harris get elected.

For example, actor Josh Gad recalled crying over his children's bed when Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016.

"I'm not sure you guys can recall that feeling you had on the night of Tuesday, November 8, 2016. I remember that feeling. I stood over my kids' bed, and I wept," Gad said.

BlazeTV's Alex Stein called the story "creepy" and "weird" and added "crying in front of your children is the least father-like thing you could ever do."

Author Bridget Phetasy called the female version of the event a form of actual "white supremacy."

"You have to believe you are better than everyone else and that it is up to you to lift up all of these people – these poor people who can't help themselves – and speak to everybody like they're toddlers," she told BlazeTV host Glenn Beck.

Democratic Representative Eric Swalwell praised the events and later applauded the Democratic ticket for having new energy.

"President Biden so graciously stepping aside and passing the torch has just energized so many people," Swalwell said. "[Harris] likes to have fun, and part of who she is is her great laugh."

The California Democrat praised the apparently whites-only events and said they set a "very high bar" for fundraisers moving forward. Swalwell added that he reached out to the owner of the comedy club Stand Up New York to help organize the August 5 event.

King George's Royal Decree

Now he tells us. George Clooney, who hosted a multimillion-dollar Hollywood fundraiser for President Joe Biden several weeks ago, on Wednesday took to the pages of the New York Times to announce that "the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe 'big F-ing deal' Biden of 2010. … He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate."

Secret Service agent robbed at gunpoint amid Biden's LA fundraising visit



A U.S. Secret Service agent was robbed at gunpoint amid President Joe Biden's fundraising visit in Los Angeles.

The agent was returning from work Saturday night when he was confronted in a residential community in Tustin, which is about an hour southeast of L.A., the Secret Service told the Associated Press.

No suspect had been found as of Monday, police told the outlet, adding that police said a silver Infiniti FX35 was spotted leaving the scene.

Tustin police said the agent's bag was stolen at gunpoint, the AP reported, adding that the agent fired his gun during the incident. The Secret Service said it doesn't know if anyone was hit by gunfire, the outlet reported, adding that the agent wasn't injured. ABC News said the agent was off duty at the time.

Police were called about the robbery shortly after 9:30 p.m., the AP said, adding that officers found some of the agent’s stolen belongings in the area.

No suspect had been found as of Monday, police told the outlet, adding that police said a silver Infiniti FX35 was spotted leaving the scene. Tustin police provided an image of the suspect's vehicle as part of a news release.

Police added that there was no known threat to the public.

How are observers reacting?

A few commenters reacting to the Tustin police department's news release on Facebook seemed disturbed and perplexed over the incident:

  • "So someone, with no description, robs a secret service agent WITH A GUN in a residential area, but there is no threat to the public??? And how does the agent take a shot at someone he can't describe? He saw the gun. He can't give the height/build at the least, or voice?" one commenter wondered.
  • "Situational awareness?" another commenter pointed out in relation to the agent's handling of the reported armed robbery, adding that "hopefully" the agent is "not on protection detail." Hopefully.

Users on X weren't happy, either:

  • "Just the people [who are] supposed to keep the president alive," one user deadpanned.
  • "Welcome to California," another user quipped. "Hope you enjoyed your visit."
  • Another commenter directed a swipe at left-wing California Gov. Gavin Newsom, saying, "Fantastic job, sir."
