LeBron’s ‘For My Kids’ Scam Kamala Harris Endorsement Netted His Company $50K – Twitchy

Lebron James is speaking out about why he endorsed Kamala Harris in the Presidential campaign. 

NEW: LeBron James said endorsing Kamala Harris in a viral Trump-bashing video was a personal decision “for my kids.”

But new disclosures show Harris’s campaign quietly paid his production company $50,000 after the post.

That was just one check.

Kamala Harris’s campaign paid $50,000 to the production company of billionaire NBA superstar LeBron James, who endorsed the failed Democratic candidate in a deceptively edited video attacking Donald Trump days before the presidential election.

The Harris campaign paid James’s SpringHill Entertainment on Jan. 28 for “campaign event production,” according to campaign disclosures released this week. James, a forward for the Los Angeles Lakers, did not appear at any campaign events for Harris. But he did post a 75-second video on his social media accounts on Oct. 31 that portrayed Donald Trump as racist.

“When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!” James wrote on X and Instagram, where he has 53 million and 159 million followers, respectively.

So there was a whole lot of money along with ‘the kids’.

That’s real loyalty and dedication to a political party when you have to pay your biggest supporters to do anything. https://t.co/ceeLj5jxF7

It never fails.

Everything about @KamalaHarris has been proven to be fake. What a horrible candidate 🤦‍♂️ https://t.co/Yow17VbzVE

Thank goodness she won’t go down in history as the first female POTUS.

Lmao. Harris had to pay these folks to endorse her. Harris may go down as the worst candidate to ever run for the presidency. https://t.co/fOid6oB5Ob

not surprised – she paid celebs to show up for ‘support’. Now if they truly supported her, why the need to be paid? #Fakes https://t.co/pJE5RPfnW3

It seems like they weren’t really convinced.

This is good info. Just shows you how all the celebrities are LIARS. https://t.co/AeRkmdkKPx

If they loved her that much they wouldn’t have needed to be paid. https://t.co/cpiqRDaiTa

One would think. Millions of people worked hard for Trump for free.

Imagine being as rich as LeBron and selling your endorsement for a measly $50k.

These celebs have zero integrity. https://t.co/pXwumqQX8C

He was probably (allegedly) paid from other places too, but those are hidden better.

Technically, he could have spent the $50K bribe on his kids.https://t.co/tQCsq2HcnH

Fair point.

nothing about her campaign was authentic and the American people knew that and voted accordingly.

That about sums it up.
