The Biden transition staff sent out a press release Monday evening that misspelled the name of Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA). Harris’ first name was spelled “Kaumala” in the statement that announced a Biden speech on the Affordable Care Act for Tuesday.

Harris’ first name has been a source of controversy for those who mispronounce it, with accusations of racism leveled at misprouncers as Tucker Carlson recently pointed out.
Trump on Kamala Harris: "You have to say her name right or she gets very upset, right? Even though she doesn't say it right."

I pity the Biden staffer who came up with “Kaumala”.
