The video was soon re-shared on X by an acct that posts content verbatim from #Trump’s feed on Truth Social. That acct on X has >800k followers, &, as of late Sun, the post containing the #Harris #deepfake had >620k views.

The video appears to be in violation of X’s terms of service, which prohibit the sharing of “synthetic, manipulated, or out-of-context media that may deceive or confuse people & lead to harm.”

For the second time in <2 wks, a doctored video of MVP #KamalaHarris has spread widely on #ElonMusk’s #SocialMedia platform #X.

A video known as a “ #deepfake” that was posted on X on Sat *appears* to show #Harris repeating herself over & over again, using a crude audio rendering made to seem like Harris is struggling to finish a complete sentence.
