Tim Pool is planning to take legal action against Kamala Harris‘ presidential campaign after her campaign’s X account, Kamala HQ, posted an out-of-context clip falsely suggesting that Pool was advocating for the death penalty against Democrats if Donald Trump were to win a second term.
The campaign’s post on X stated, “Trump operatives say their Project 2025 plan is to give Trump total, unchecked legal power so they can jail and execute those who don’t support Trump if he wins.” The post further alleged that Pool’s video was removed from YouTube to hide this supposed endorsement.
In response, Pool announced, “I have engaged legal counsel. We are preparing to take action. More to come.” On Tuesday, he elaborated on his morning show, clarifying that he is neither affiliated with the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 nor the Trump campaign. He stated he has always opposed the death penalty and that the video was removed specifically because he does not support such extreme measures.
“I feel that the lies from the Kamala campaign have become so shockingly, shockingly egregious, they strike at the conscience of any good, rational American,” Pool explained as he outlined the grounds for his lawsuit.
