A fake ad campaign called 'Progress 2028' funded by Elon Musk and others is being launched to mislead people about the policies supported by candidate Kamala Harris.
A campaign website called ' Progress 2028 ' has appeared, which misleads people into thinking that Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, supports policies that she did not put forward in the election campaign. According to an investigation, the website was created by an organization funded by Elon Musk, who supports Republican candidate Donald Trump.

'Progress 2028' may look like a Democratic response to 'Project 2025,' but it's not - CBS News
Progess 2028 claims that Harris is prioritizing a national gun buyback campaign and that she is seeking to ban fracking, a method used to extract oil and gas.
However, this site has no connection to Harris or her supporters. According to news sites such as CBS, it was launched in September 2024 by Building America's Future, a conservative non-profit organization that has received millions of dollars in funding from Elon Musk and other conservative supporters.
'This is a campaign of lies designed to mislead voters,' a spokesman for the Harris-Waltz campaign said.
According to CBS, Harris supported gun buybacks and a fracking ban during the 2019 Democratic primary, but has since backed away from them and said she will not support either cause in the 2024 presidential election.

By the way, CBS wrote that 'Progress 2028 may look like an evolved version of Project 2025, a policy proposal published by the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation, but it is not.' However, Project 2025 is quite pro-Trump, and Harris has created a rebuttal page on her official website. It is unclear whether Progress 2028, which is said to be similar to Project 2025, can effectively mislead people about Harris' policies.
