Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign faced another embarrassing situation after the discovery of a new X account created specifically to combat the spread of falsehoods about her.
The campaign’s X account, known as “KamalaHQ,” has previously received flak for disseminating blatant falsehoods about her Republican opponent, former President Donald Trump.
The KamalaHQ account has also been said to have disseminated deceptive, contextually distorted footage of Trump and other Republicans. As an instance, it spread the untrue assertion that Trump described Neo-Nazis as “very fine people,” a storyline that has been extensively discredited.
The account “KamalaHQLies” promptly refuted the accusations made by KamalaHQ, stating that Snopes, a fact-checking organization with left-leaning tendencies, has already debunked the bogus accusation. KamalaHQLies presented a comprehensive transcript of Trump’s statements to expose the falsity of the assertion and provide the contextual evidence that disproves the deceptive narrative.
CLAIM: Kamala HQ says Donald Trump called Neo-Nazis “very fine people.”
REALITY: This claim has been debunked by left-wing Snopes and rated “false.”

Harris made an unexpected appearance at the Democratic National Convention on Monday evening, where she publicly expressed gratitude to President Joe Biden. This came after reports that she had been forcefully removed from the race a month ago.
“This is going to be a great week, and I want to kick us off by celebrating our incredible President Joe Biden, who will be speaking later tonight. Joe, thank you for your historic leadership, for your lifetime of service to our nation, and for all you will continue to do, we are forever grateful to you. Thank you, Joe,” Harris said.
“Looking out at everyone tonight, I see the beauty of our great nation. People from every corner of our country and every walk of life are here united by our shared vision for the future of our country, and this November, we will come together and declare with one voice, as one people, we are moving forward,” Harris added.
“With optimism, hope, and faith, so guided by our love of country, knowing we all have so much more in common than what separates us, let us fight for the ideals we hold dear, and let us always remember when we fight, we win,” the vice president continued.

Harris received negative news from three polls that indicate her popularity is eroding.
In Pennsylvania, a crucial swing state, she was favored by former President Donald Trump in two of the polls, while the Republican presidential nominee was favored by a third.
Trump had a one-point advantage in the crucial state of Pennsylvania with 19 Electoral College votes, according to two surveys of prospective voters conducted by Cygnal and Emerson College.
The former president led the nation by one point in a different Napolitan News Service poll.
On July 21, Joe Biden withdrew from the contest and endorsed Harris, who immediately emerged as the Democratic Party’s front-runner for the president. This first clearly helped Democrats in the polls.
Harris outperformed Trump in over a dozen national surveys, and many of the major bookmakers made her the favorite to win in November.
“Between August 12 and 14, RMG Research polled 2,708 likely voters across the United States for Napolitan News Service, which found Trump leading Harris by 46 percent to 45 percent. When undecided voters leaning one way were included, Trump’s margin extended to 49 percent against 47 percent, compared to the last RMG poll a week ago, which put both candidates on 49 percent,” Newsweek reported.
