A post shared on social media purportedly shows an image of a post from Vice President Kamala Harris that calls for a Republican congressional candidate to be deported.
Verdict: False
The image is fabricated.
U.S. prosecutors have issued a revised indictment of former President Donald Trump with wording that considers a ruling of immunity for interference in the 2020 election, BBC News reported. This revision, lead by Special Counsel Jack Smith, comes after the Supreme Court ruled that the president had immunity from criminal charges for official acts, according to the outlet.
A post shared on Instagram allegedly shows X post from Harris that calls for Republican congressional candidate Omar Navarro to be deported for leaving the Democrat party and running against Democrat California Rep. Maxine Waters. The post shared a screenshot of the alleged post that features an image of Waters with Navarro.
The alleged post reads, “The beautiful Auntie Maxine is right. MAGA Republican @realOmarNavarro needs to be deported from our country for leaving the Democrat Party many years ago,” referencing Navarro’s username. “This is a threat to democracy! Do NOT follow him!”
The claim is inaccurate. There is no such post found on Harris’ official social media accounts. There is no record of this post on the deleted tweet tracker PolitiTweet. Furthermore, Harris’ current X handle is @VP, not @KamalaHarris as seen in the post.
This is not the first time a post has been shared as real online. Check Your Fact recently debunked a claim a woman was suing her parents for having her.
