As U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz ran for the presidency ahead of the November 2024 general election, they were the subjects of numerous misleading videos. We have fact-checked a range of such videos, including a fake video of Walz "dancing" to a Beyoncé song and a fake video of both the candidates standing next to a Revolutionary Communists of America sign.

One video falsely claimed to show Harris losing her temper at a 9/11 event, while another miscaptioned footage of Walz and his son, claiming the candidate was being abusive.

Below is a collection of our fact checks that contextualize and debunk videos about Harris and Walz. Be sure to keep an eye on this roundup — we will frequently update it with new analyses and fact checks ahead of the election.
