Jan 13, 2025, 05:30 PM

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has hired former staffers from Kamala Harris's campaign, known as 'viral wizards,' to lead a new rapid response initiative called 'FactPostNews'. This initiative aims to combat online misinformation and respond to actions by the Trump administration during his second term by disseminating memes, videos, and graphics. The team, who previously managed the @KamalaHQ social media account during the 2024 presidential campaign, will leverage their experience to address disinformation in real time. The DNC's move is intended to counter what they describe as the 'Republican disinformation machine.'
