A social media account on X, formerly Twitter, titled "Kamala HQ" and which is run by Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris's campaign, has been "repeatedly deceptive," according to a CNN report.

The account, @KamalaHQ, has misleadingly clipped and incorrectly captioned videos to take shots at GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, according to the report. 

Some examples include taking out of context a Trump quote about immigration and misleadingly describing the "very fine people on both sides" comment from Trump about the Charlottesville rally.

The account typically not only goes after Trump, but criticizes prominent figures who support the 45th president. 

CNN described the account as an "irreverent attack dog."

The CNN fact-check report cites "eight examples of false or misleading video posts from the account since mid-August, including three from the latter part of this week."

Some of the lies and misrepresentations of the account have been examined and disputed by an account called @KamalaHQLies.
