With Kamala vouching for this now admitted liar and attention whore by submitting a falsified letter into evidence, can she be held legally liable for aiding and abetting libel/slander???

No.
There's no such thing as "aiding and abetting libel/slander" because those are civil torts not criminal offenses. To recover from Harris some plaintiff would have to show that she personally repeated the libelous statements while knowing that they were false, and then the damages would be limited to the financial damage caused to the plaintiff.
I don't know legaleze, so thanks for clarifying.
I suppose I should've just asked "can kamala be held responsible for this as it was her that submitted a false piece of evidence into the record?"
Like, is that a thing, legally speaking?
Only if she knew it was false, or ought to have found out that it was false. Neither condition applies here.
