Millions of American voters were led to believe they were about to witness a live performance by Beyoncé, thanks to efforts by Kamala Harris's senior political director, Emmy Ruiz. Earlier in the day, Ruiz, who serves as the director of political strategy and outreach, posted a bee ?? emoji on her X account, hinting at Beyoncé’s appearance—a clear signal to the "BeyHive." This move was followed by either Ruiz or someone on her team allegedly confirming Beyoncé's involvement when contacted by TMZ. The gossip outlet then ran with the story, announcing, “Beyoncé is in Chicago and getting ready to pop out for Kamala Harris on the final night of the Democratic convention.” This sequence of events raises questions about whether Ruiz’s actions were misleading enough to violate any laws.
