A controversial "Progress 2028" manifesto, posing as a progressive platform from Vice President Kamala Harris, has been exposed as a misleading fake document reportedly funded by conservative dark money groups with links to Elon Musk, according to a report from the watchdog group Open Secrets.

Progress 2028, which presents itself as a liberal vision for America, is allegedly part of an initiative by Building America's Future, a conservative dark money network that reportedly has backing from Musk.

Musk has reportedly provided more than US$100 million so far to sponsor Donald Trump along with other Republican groups.

Open Secrets, as per AFP, describes the project as a calculated effort to mislead and potentially alienate Democratic voters.

Anna Massoglia, a researcher with Open Secrets, remarked that the initiative "is really trying to undermine Harris by spreading divisive messages, misleading narratives under the guise of being an ally of Harris".

Examples of this strategy include claims that Harris supports a mandatory nationwide gun buyback, taxpayer-funded healthcare for "undocumented immigrants," and allowing minors to access gender-affirming care without "parental intervention" — none of which align with Harris's official policies for the 2024 election.
