Political commentator Tim Pool has filed a lawsuit against the Kamala Harris campaign.
Pool accused the Democratic presidential nominee’s campaign of “publishing a false statement” that he’s a “Trump operative.”
The suit claims Harris falsely stated that he wants to “give Trump total, unchecked legal power” to “jail and execute those who don’t support Trump if he wins.”
“The statements were and are false because Mr. Pool never said such a thing in the incorporated video and has never said such a thing previously. The content the Harris Campaign clipped cannot be reasonably construed to support the claims made in the post at issue or from Mr. Pool’s prior statements and conduct,” the suit says.

“On Saturday August 31, 2024, the Harris Campaign published a post on X featuring Mr. Pool. The post incorporated a one-minute clip from one of Mr. Pool’s shows. X users who encounter the post, a true and accurate screenshot of which is shown below, immediately see Mr. Pool under the text,” the suit reads.
Pool sued the Harris campaign for defamation and bad faith misconduct.

Per Newsweek:
In a lawsuit filed in a West Virginia federal court on Tuesday, Pool claims that the Harris campaign falsely said that he backed the Project 2025 plan to put Donald Trump in the White House. It also states that the Harris campaign claimed Pool was advocating the execution of political enemies.
The legal action followed a post by the Harris campaign on X, formerly Twitter, over the Labor Day weekend.
Pool is seeking millions of dollars in compensation and claims that he has had to increase security as a result of the Harris campaign’s online comments.
“What the Harris campaign published was, and is, a lie. Mr Pool had never advocated for the lawless, extrajudicial killing of his (or anyone else’s) political opponents,” Pool’s attorney, James Lawrence, said in the filing.
