DNC Autopsy Report Released, Wipes Gaza Massacre to Hide Why Millions Stayed Home

The DNC’s 192-page election autopsy is finally public, but the most damning evidence has been erased. By scrubbing every mention of Gaza and foreign influence, the party is attempting to hide why it truly lost millions of voters. Read on to see the secrets they left in the margins.

The Democratic National Committee released its long-delayed internal autopsy of the 2024 election today, a 192-page manuscript so heavily sanitized that the party’s most glaring moral and political failures have been scrubbed from existence.

Voters have demanded an accounting for the loss of tens of millions of supporters since 2020, yet the document, titled “Build to Win. Build to Last.”, arrives with its Executive Summary, Conclusion, and entire analytical appendices removed.

The omission of Gaza, Palestine, and Israel is absolute. The report functions as an exercise in avoidance, ignoring the primary driver of voter alienation—continued material support for the slaughter of half a million Palestinians—to focus instead on tactical errors and branding malfunctions.

The document was authored by Mia Ehrenberg, a former campaign official, and carries explicit disclaimers on every page stating the DNC “cannot independently verify the claims presented.”

The DNC’s marginalia is littered with defensive posture, using phrases like “No evidence provided” and “Claim contradicts public data” to push back on its own internal post-mortem.

By erasing the impact of the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the report attempts to frame Kamala Harris’s defeat as a series of secondary technical failures, chief among them the fact that the candidate was never defined beyond being “not Trump.”

This strategy of negative positioning has been the party’s primary offering since 2016, a trend that appears unchanged as Democrats pivot toward the mid-terms with the same hollow messaging.

The report also cites a catastrophic failure to win the economic argument, noting that 32% of the electorate named the economy as their top issue and broke for Donald Trump by a margin of 63 points.

Voters earning between $30,000 and $100,000, who represent nearly half the electorate, favored Trump by 6 points while the administration leaned into “Bidenomics,” a term that tied the party to the very financial anxiety voters were experiencing.

The refusal to acknowledge the role of foreign influence is particularly striking given the aggressive spending campaigns by Israeli terrorist-aligned PACs and donors who have funneled millions into both parties.

These interests effectively seized control of the party’s foreign policy, forcing a disconnect between the Democratic base and its leadership that the report chooses to ignore in favor of complaining about “media mix” and “digital inventory.”

The DNC is operating under a structural decay that began in 2008. Democratic registration majorities have plummeted from seven jurisdictions to just two—Maryland and the District of Columbia—while the party faces the loss of up to 12 Congressional seats following the 2030 Census.

“Bidenomics” framed macro statistics that did not match the micro realities voters lived, the report claims, yet the same logic applies to the party’s refusal to see that supporting a humanitarian catastrophe is a political liability.

The report notes that rural outreach was “mathematically indefensible” and that the campaign effectively wrote off the very voters needed to offset erosion among young Black and Latino men.

In Nevada, Trump won Latino men by 12 points, and in Starr County, Texas—a 97% Hispanic area—the GOP won for the first time since 1892.

The money advantage provided no shield. Democrats raised $8.6 billion compared to the Republicans’ $6.1 billion, but the spend was concentrated in a small handful of vendors like Waterfront Strategies.

The DNC’s organizing was “outsourced and underfunded,” with state staff for coordinated campaigns not fully in place until October, after voting had already begun in many jurisdictions.

While the report acknowledges the campaign spent $1.04 billion on media while dedicating only $150 million to voter contact, it remains silent on why that media never addressed the specific demands of the anti-war movement.

The down-ballot results provide the sharpest indictment of the national strategy. Candidates like Josh Stein, Ruben Gallego, and Elissa Slotkin all significantly outperformed Harris by defining themselves on concrete records and engaging rural turf.

The preservation of the party’s relationship with donor networks and foreign interests appears to have taken precedence over a truthful accounting of the 2024 collapse.

By releasing a censored autopsy, the DNC confirms its priority: maintaining a system where the strings can still be pulled, even if it means losing the country.

Editor’s Note: The report itself is so detached from reality that it reads as comedy more so than a serious review of why the party lost and what it can do to win back voters. To save our readers hours of wasted time off their life that they will never get back, we’ve chosen not to link to the report here. If you are truly up for it, it can be found via other media outlets. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
