However, this claim has been deemed false. The slogan does not appear on Harris&#8217;s campaign website or her verified social media profiles, and there is no supporting evidence for the assertion. According to USA Today, Harris raised $82 million during the recent Democratic National Convention and has accumulated $540 million since launching her presidential campaign. The Threads post claims that &#8220;Strength through Joy&#8221; is both a Nazi party slogan and a convention slogan for Harris and the DNC, but it lacks any credible sources to back it up. This misinformation has also spread on X (formerly Twitter), where it received over 9,000 views at the time of writing. Fact-checking organizations like Reuters and Snopes have confirmed that there is no evidence linking Harris to this Nazi slogan in relation to her campaign. While the claim is unfounded, themes of joy have been present in Harris&#8217;s messaging; she has referred to the Democratic ticket as &#8220;joyful warriors,&#8221; according to The Associated Press.
