A video is being shared online with false claims that it shows a Kamala Harris staffer confirming that the Vice President lied about owning a gun in a CNN interview.

Adrienne Elrod, senior spokesperson for the Harris-Walz campaign was being interviewed by Jim Acosta on 20 September when she was asked about the Democratic presidential candidate’s gun ownership.

In a number of posts shared on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook, social media users claim Ms Elrod said Ms Harris “does not own a firearm”, and some accuse Ms Harris of having “lied”. Some share a clip of the interview with subtitles, while some examples are sped up.

But the spokesperson actually confirmed Ms Harris does own a firearm in the clip.

In some versions, subtitles have been added to the…

An image circulating on social media claims to show US Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s communist party membership card. But the picture is fake and was likely created using an online communist party card generator.

One post on X, formerly Twitter, has been viewed more than 60,000 times and is captioned “Communist Party Kamala? Say it ain’t so Joe.” The image includes some printed text claiming Ms Harris received the Communist Party of the Soviet Union ‘document’ in 1984, and that the New York Times reported on the communist party credential. The picture has also been shared on Facebook.

An edited screenshot of a CNN article featuring US Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz is circulating online. 

The screenshot appears to show an article on the politics page of the CNN website with the headline: “Harris and Walz pledges [sic] free Costco membership for all SNAP recipients”, and features a photo of them on a stage at Temple University in Philadelphia earlier this month.

However, CNN has not published an article with this headline, and Full Fact…

A video circulating on social media appears to show Democratic presidential candidate and current US Vice President, Kamala Harris, with her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, posing for a selfie in front of a Revolutionary Communists of America poster. 

But the sign has been digitally altered. The original footage shows it actually referenced Mr Walz’s past role as a high school football coach during his career as a school teacher. 

Several media reports and photographs from an event on 9 August in Phoenix, Arizona, show Ms Harris and Mr Walz in front of two posters. The larger one has a brown background and says “Kamala and the Coach”. The other is smaller and reads: “Democrats protect abortion”. 

In altered versions of the footage being shared…

Trump supporters were outraged after View co-host Ana Navarro shared a nude photo of Melania Trump on Instagram while attempting to defend the dating history of Vice President Kamala Harris.

Navarro, 52, has described her political position as ‘centrist’ in the past and has been a vocal critic of former President Trump and his administration.

Some of the attacks on Harris have seen her being called a ‘Jezebel’ coupled with insults over her not having biological kids.
