Major celebrities are working behind the scenes to secure prominent appearances at the upcoming Democratic National Convention ... but the Kamala Harris campaign isn't accommodating everyone ... for fear of making the DNC feel too Hollywood.

Meanwhile the last moneybeg.....Hey it's really me Mark Hamill!

Harris-Walz campaign wants to be smart about celebrity involvement, and is working hard to avoid the Chicago-based DNC being painted as a "Hollywood liberal elite" event.

....

the campaign feels Hillary Clinton gave celebrities too big a platform back in 2016 and it backfired on her ... and they don't want to overdo the Hollywood aspect to the point where it turns off everyday folks.

Ohhhh I was there it was sooooo condensending. First they played Bridge Over Troubled Waters (cause ya know how much they knew WE knew they fucked Bernie over) then they sent out Sarah Silverman who got booed and she chastised the Bernie wing. "TO THE BERNIE OR BUST PEOPLE YOU'RE BEING RIDICULOUS".

Could you imagine Mark Hamill getting booed on stage? God I love how made a permanent trama burn in the DNC. If anything It was worth that.

    Silverman in lecture mode is pretty much what I assume the leader of a HOA sounds like lecturing a homeowner who isn't "proudly" flying the American flag.

          Giant 100 foot flagpole with a Soviet flag the size of a house, topped with one of those teeny tiny little American flags on toothpicks that weirdoes get for fourth of July parties. "I am following the law to the letter, any further attempt on your part to get me to modify my flagpole and what I'm flying on it is a violation of both the first amendment and the US flag code. Enjoy!"

          Is Violating the Flag Code Illegal?

          No. While the U.S. Flag Code is a federal law, guidelines are only stated within the voluntary and non-binding language such as, "should" and "custom," meaning there is no penalty for violating any of its provisions. This is because of the Supreme Court's act in declaring the law unconstitutional in United States v. Eichman.

      Ah man, it's cute how they think people are still Bernie or bust and haven't moved on to being radicalized by genocide and the wanton violence of riot cops. It's like Bernie or bust was our last known position on their political radar, and they have very little inkling that we have fully left the radius of their comprehension.

        They think we are still tantruming as party to their bullshit rather than having largely chosen Bust and moved on to effective action lol
