Comedian Andrew Schulz of the Flagrant podcast called out former Vice President Kamala Harris’s failed 2024 presidential campaign for its alleged dishonesty. Schulz accused Vice President Harris’s team of “blatantly” lying about contact attempts during a recent election, claiming they falsely stated that he never reached out.
He told The Interview podcast, “It’s wild to blatantly lie when not only did I reach out — Charlamagne [da god], who’s working with them, reached out,” Schulz said. He added, “Mark Cuban, who’s a surrogate, reached out, and we reached out, and they blatantly lie.” According to Schulz, Harris staff then “said that never happened,” leading him to question, “So what is the reader supposed to interpret that as?”
Schulz described how he offered interviews to prominent Democrats—Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, and Harris herself—only to face rejection amid allegations that his team were “podcast bros” who were “sexist, bigoted and racist.”
Despite the pushback, Schulz later landed conversations with Buttigieg and Sen. Bernie Sanders. He credited his October interview with President Trump on the Flagrant podcast for shifting the political narrative: “after the interview he felt Trump went from having ‘no chance’ of winning the presidency again to ‘winning by a landslide.’”
A self-described lifelong Democrat who voted for Trump, Schulz said his vote stemmed from frustration: “[M]y vote was more like I voted against a Democratic institution that I feel was stripping the democratic process from its constituents.”
