Kamala Harris didn’t resign or get jailed by Trump

SI TIENES POCO TIEMPO

  • Vice President Kamala Harris has not resigned, nor is there any suggestion she will.
     
  • This Facebook post with thousands of views has no source information backing up its claim. It features a video from Newsmax criticizing Harris but reports nothing about a resignation or jailing.

Did you miss the news about Vice President Kamala Harris resigning and then getting imprisoned by former President Donald Trump? 

So did we. That’s because it didn’t happen. And yet, an Oct. 11 Facebook post with thousands of views claimed otherwise. 

"Kamala Harris resigns in shock after Biden’s ‘mandatory’ border trip…Trump jails ‘corrupt’ VP," the post said. 

Another oddly phrased post from Oct. 12 said: "‘Resigns now’ Kamala Harris stunned dumb after Biden’s mandatory border trip."

Both posts featured the same clip from a Newsmax broadcast in which a guest criticized the Biden administration on immigration and Harris for not visiting the border. But the segment didn’t touch on Harris resigning, or getting jailed. She didn’t. 

We rate this claim Pants on Fire!
