Was Kamala Harris caught on a viral video adjusting the Bluetooth earphones she used during her debate with Donald Trump?! Take a look at the viral claims, and find out what the facts really are!

 

Claim : Viral video shows Kamala Harris adjusting Bluetooth earphones!

Some people are posting a video which claims to prove that Vice President Kamala Harris was secretly using Bluetooth wireless earphones to cheat during her debate with Donald Trump!

Poppi Starr : BUSTED…THESE are the same earrings she wore at the DEBATE

TaraBull : Nothing to see here folks 👀

Many of the videos have a text overlay which claimed:

Truth : Video does not show Kamala Harris adjusting Bluetooth earphones!

This appears to be yet another example of fake news created about Kamala Harris, and here are the reasons why…

Kamala Harris was wearing an in-ear monitor

While Kamala Harris appears to be wearing a similar pair of pearl earrings she wore at her debate with Donald Trump, she was adjusting an in-ear monitor (IEM).

In-ear monitors are commonly worn by TV presenters and their guests, which allow them to receive vocal instructions and information from the show’s producer.

Video was edited to crop out in-ear monitor receiver

In-ear monitors do not use Bluetooth wireless technology, and linked using a wire to a receiver, which connects wirelessly using UHF or VHF radio to a transmitter off-stage.

If you watch the original video below, you can see that Kamala Harris actually picked up her in-ear monitor’s receiver to adjust the volume. You can see that the receiver is quite large.

The viral video, however, deceptively cropped out the receiver – presumably to make you think that she was adjusting her Bluetooth earphones. Why would anyone do that???

Video was recorded in 2019

I should also point out that this video was not recorded recently. It was actually recorded in November 2019 – almost 5 years ago!

MSNBC anchor Jonathan Capehart recorded that video about 1 minute before the Politics Nation show with Rev. Al Sharpton started, and posted it on X (formerly Twitter) on 26 November 2019.

So this video has nothing to do with the 2024 Kamala Harris – Donald Trump presidential debate.

Kamala Harris was not wearing NOVA H1 audio earrings

This viral video is designed to perpetuate the false claims that Kamala Harris wore the NOVA H1 audio earrings during her debate with Donald Trump. That’s not true, and has been conclusively debunked.

The truth is – Kamala Harris appeared to be wearing South Sea Pearl Earrings (no longer available online) from Tiffany & Co. To be clear – these are just a pair of gold-plated earrings with pearl, without any embedded Bluetooth earphones.

Kamala Harris does not wear Bluetooth earphones

Kamala Harris is known to dislike Bluetooth earphones, and intentionally choses to go old-school with wired earphones – for security reasons. As Politico reported in 2021, “Kamala Harris is Bluetooth-phobic“.

KAMALA HARRIS is never missing her AirPods. That’s because she’s wary of them.

While a growing number of consumers are going wireless, the vice president is sticking with the classics. She has long felt that Bluetooth headphones are a security risk. As a result, Harris insists on using wired headphones, three former campaign aides told West Wing Playbook.

In short – it’s just silly to keep claiming that Kamala Harris is secretly wearing Bluetooth earphones to receive information during her debate with Donald Trump.

This is just political fake news

Ultimately, this is yet another example of political fake news surrounding the upcoming 2024 US Presidential election. Here are some other examples I fact checked recently:

As the 2024 US Presidential election draws close, you can expect more of such fake news to appear, so be wary and skeptical!
