A group of 25 imams endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president with an open letter, NBC News reported Sunday.

They urged Muslim voters to think carefully about the potential risks and harm involved with a decision. Choosing Harris far outweighs the harms of the other options,\" they wrote.

\"Knowingly enabling someone like Donald Trump to return to office, whether by voting directly for him or for a third-party candidate, is both a moral and a strategic failure,\" they wrote, pointing to his \"well-documented history of harming our communities and country.\"

The endorsement is a welcome boost for Harris as the Muslim community has been divided over whether to support her. Many groups point to the Biden administration's support for Israel as a reason to not endorse or support third-party candidates.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) echoed Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vances answer during last weeks debate with Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), claiming that the media asking whether Trump lost the 2020 election is somehow a \"gotcha\" question.

On Sunday, George Stephanopoulos asked Johnson whether he can unequivocally say that Biden won the 2020 election and that Trump lost an issue that the former president continues to bring up at his campaign rallies even a month before the 2024 election.

See, this is the game that is always played by mainstream media with leading Republicans. Its a gotcha game, Johnson said on ABCs This Week. You want us to litigate things that happened four years ago when were talking about the future. Were not going to talk about what happened in 2020, were going to talk about 2024 and how were going to solve the problems for the American people.

I think this thing, this game thats played all the time, Im not going to engage in it, he continued.

The answer was virtually the same as Vances, who, as Trumps running mate, has publicly avoided answering whether he believes Trump lost the 2020 election.

During his Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he was shot just months prior in an assassination attempt, former President Donald Trump said the rallygoer who was fatally shot that day had the best seat in the house.

After a moment of silence honoring Corey Comperatore, the Trump supporter who was killed during the assassination attempt, Trump said he had the best seat that day.

But Corey had the best seat in the house, and he was telling his wife and family on the way over in the car, Im telling you, hes going to invite me up on the stage, because I do that sometimes, I take people, we invite them up on the stage, Trump told the crowd.

Trump suggested that Comperatore's spirit now lives on on the rally stage.

And she smiled, thinking itll never happen, and little did anyone realize, Corey would be on the stage three months later in an almost immortal position. And thats where he is today, hes on the stage in a truly immortal position.

Trump has reportedly made several jokes about Comperatores death.

“But Corey had the best seat in the house, and he was telling his wife and family on the way over in the car, ‘I’m telling you, he’s going to invite me up on the stage,’ because I do that sometimes, I take people, we invite them up on the stage,” Trump told the crowd.

\n

Trump suggested that Comperatore's spirit now lives on on the rally stage.

\n

“And she smiled, thinking it’ll never happen, and little did anyone realize, Corey would be on the stage three months later in an almost immortal position. And that’s where he is today, he’s on the stage in … a truly immortal position.”

\n

Trump has reportedly made several jokes about Comperatore’s death.

Vance used his time onstage at Saturday's rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, to claim as he's done in the past that Democrats who dared to criticize Trump were to blame for the attempts on his life, while simultaneously condemning Democrats for supposedly declaring \"war on the right to free speech.

He also joined prior speakers in citing divine intervention during the July 13 attempt on Trumps life.

You heard the shots. You saw the blood. We all feared the worst, Vance said. But you knew everything would be OK when President Trump raised his fist high in the air and shouted: Fight! Fight! Fight!

Now, I believe as sure as Im standing here today that what happened was a true miracle. And on that day, America felt the truth of scripture: Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.

I truly believe that God saved President Trumps life that day, and I believe that God is with us right now.\"

Vance also took a moment to commemorate Corey Comperatore, the former fire chief and Trump supporter who died in the July shooting. Comperatore's firefighting uniform was on display behind the stage during Saturday's event.

Trump supporters addressing the rally-goers Saturday afternoon sought to mythologize the first attempt on his life July 13, suggesting that God had a hand in ensuring Trump was only grazed by a bullet. The rhetoric has the same religious overtones that Trump himself has adopted in describing the incident.

An assassin nearly plunged this nation and the world into darkness, said conservative author Sean Parnell. But God and courage had a hand.

We are Americans. We are the descendants of those who crossed oceans for freedom, who fought against all odds for independence, who bled on foreign shores for liberty, not just for ourselves, but for the entire world, Parnell went on. Here in Butler County, you didnt just witness history you made it.

Butler Township Commissioner Ed Natali said that it was by the grace of the almighty God Trump survived the shooting. Butler County Commissioner Kimberly Geyer recalled the roar of celebration when President Trump rose with defiant strength, pumped his fist and showed us the way.

That beautiful summer day became one of the most infamous, dark days in American history but by the grace of God, our president was spared, said Tom Natoli, who was directly behind Trump during the July 13 rally.

Fight! Fight! Fight! he shouted, echoing Trump's now-famous words.

In the face of conspiracy theories that have been amplified by Trump and his close allies, the Federal Emergency Management Agency issued a statement detailing how it has responded to Hurricane Helene's march across the Southeast and what aid is still available for people whose homes were affected.

FEMA has already helped thousands of Hurricane Helene survivors jumpstart their recoveries with more than $110 million in federal assistance, the agency said on Saturday. More than 6,400 personnel from across the federal workforce are deployed, including FEMA staff. To date, FEMA has shipped over 13.2 million meals, more than 13.4 million liters of water, 157 generators and more than 492,000 tarps to the region.

In North Carolina, largely caught off guard by the devastation the storm wrought, FEMA said around 1,200 search-and-rescue personnel have helped rescue about 3,200 storm survivors so far. National Guard troops have delivered about 1 million pounds of food, water and other supplies, and over 800 people have been provided transitional shelter.

The agency said there are three main ways to apply for FEMA assistance: by downloading and applying on the FEMA app, by visiting disasterassistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621-3362.

Harris recorded an episode of the raunchy sex and relationships podcast Call Her Daddy, her campaign has told outlets like Axios.

Trump has struggled to make inroads with female voters in the wake of the widely unpopular Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 ruling that had legalized abortion nationwide. Harris, appearing with host Alex Cooper on a show that is hugely popular with women and one of the most well-known podcasts on the internet will emphasize her commitment to abortion rights in the episode, which drops next week, according to CNN.

On Saturday, Trump is scheduled to return to the site of the July 13 rally that nearly got him killed, speaking around 5 p.m. in Butler, Pennsylvania. His guests are set to include the family of a man who was fatally shot at the July event, as well as right-wing billionaire Elon Musk, among dozens of others.

Harris, meanwhile, is scheduled in the afternoon to tour damage in North Carolina following Hurricane Helene, as lies spewed by the Trump campaign continue to cloud recovery efforts.

I'm an active duty soldier here at Fort Liberty

Donald Trump chuckled on Friday as a North Carolina crowd booed someone named Austin who identified himself as an active-duty soldier at Fort Liberty, an Army base that the former president has promised to revert to its old name of Fort Bragg.

The man, who spoke at a town-hall-style campaign event in nearby Fayetteville, correctly referred to the base over a year after it was officially renamed.

The change was a result of efforts to rename Department of Defense sites tied to Confederate leaders, including the North Carolina base named after slave owner and Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg.

\"This great-looking soldier just accidentally said Fort Liberty, and he got almost booed the hell out of the place. That was not good,\" Trump said.

Trump himself mocked such renaming efforts during his administration and, ahead of the stop in North Carolina, his campaign used the wrong name of the base in a news release.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), the event's moderator, incorrectly referred to the base as Fort Bragg as well.

The GOP nominee opened the event by asking the crowd about changing the name \"back to Fort Bragg.\" He was met with cheers and applause.

\"So here's what we do, we get elected. I'm doing it, I'm doing it,\" Trump said.

He later added, \"You know, we did win two world wars from Fort Bragg... so this is no time to be changing names.\"

A Vietnam War veteran presented Trump with his Purple Heart, a military decoration bestowed upon military members who were wounded or killed while serving, during the former presidents town hall event in Fayetteville, North Carolina.

The veteran was invited on stage to give Trump the token, saying he deserved it in light of the assassination attempt on him in July.

Bone spurs in Trump's heels kept him from being drafted during the Vietnam War. The daughters of the podiatrist who diagnosed his bone spurs told The New York Times in 2018 their father made the diagnosis as a favor to help him bypass the draft, though the Times was unable to find documentation verifying their story.

Trump has a history of disparaging or dismissing his opponents military service, including that of the late Arizona Sen.

Donald Trump may have admitted, possibly for the first time ever, that he lost Georgia in the 2020 election, during a brief media appearance with Gov. Brian Kemp in the state Friday.

In response to a question about how he will do in Georgia in November, Trump said: Well, I won it easily in 2016. We actually were very close last time.

Trump spent weeks following the Nov. 3, 2020, election lying that he had won Georgia and that it was stolen from him, and he repeatedly attacked Kemp for not taking action to flip the result in his favor. He is under felony indictment in Georgia for his attempt to coerce state officials there into giving him the states 16 electoral votes despite his loss, and that same Georgia effort is part of the federal prosecution against him for his actions leading up to his Jan. 6, 2021, coup attempt.

The future of the auto industry is a big issue in this campaign, especially in Michigan, although for the last few weeks its mostly been Trump and his allies talking about it.

That is about to change.

At a rally in Flint tonight, Harris will respond to controversial comments that Vance made on Wednesday, according to a Harris campaign official.

Detroit News reporters had asked Vance whether he and Trump would continue to subsidize production of electric vehicles, as the Biden administration has. In a follow-up, one of the reporters asked specifically about a planned $500 million investment to convert an existing General Motors plant in Lansing over to EV production.

Vance wouldnt commit either way. He went on to say that the Biden subsidies dont do enough to help American workers, arguing that they will end up subsidizing Chinese production because so many EV components come from there.

\"We ought to be rebuilding the American middle class and investing in our own workers, not shipping our tax dollars off to electric vehicles made in China,\" Vance said.

It was a slightly more nuanced version of Trumps longtime argument that subsidizing EV production will destroy the U.S. auto industry. And its already drawn sharp rebukes from both the United Auto Workers and prominent Democrats, who cited GM statements that the assembled battery parts for the Lansing plant would come from a new U.S. factory.

GM has also said the investment and resulting conversion will save 650 jobs.Gretchen Whitmer, Michigans Democratic governor, called Vances statement a middle finger to Michigan auto workers.

Im confident it will be free and fair. I dont know whether it will be peaceful. The things that [Donald Trump] has said and the things he said last time out when he didnt like the outcome of the election were very dangerous.

President Joe Biden made a surprise appearance at the White House press briefing on Friday, speaking about the latest jobs report and taking a handful of questions from reporters.

As he left the room, someone asked if he wanted to reconsider dropping out of the 2024 presidential race.

\"I'm back in!\" he joked.

In a 12-minute recording of a speech Trump gave at a private fundraiser earlier this year, the former president can be heard disparaging immigrants, baselessly casting them as criminals and terrorists whove been sent to the U.S. by other countries to reduce crime there.

The recording, obtained by The Guardian, was made at an Aug. 10 dinner in Aspen, Colo., with a required donation of between $25,000 to $500,000 per couple. According to the outlet, Trump flew to Aspen on a jet formerly owned by the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

While Trump stuck to his now-familiar xenophobic, fact-less rant that evening, this time he dropped an f-bomb in for good measure while repeating the wholly false claim that the Democratic Republic of the Congo released 22 people from prison and sent them to the U.S.

We said, Where do you come from? They said prison. What did you do? None of your fucking business what we did,\" he said. \"You know why? Because theyre murderers.

Trump continued to say that the only thing good [about these people] is they make our criminals look extremely nice. They make our Hells Angels look like the nicest people on earth.

Apparently upset the unemployment rate fell as the economy added jobs last month, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) baselessly complained of \"another fake jobs report from the Biden-Harris government.\"

As evidence, Rubio noted that \"16 of the last 17 reports have been significantly revised downwards after media helps them with their fake headlines.\" He was off: only 13 of the last 17 reports were revised downwards.

But the same agency that produces the monthly jobs report, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, also handles revisions to the data, so it's a weird conspiracy theory. The numbers are based on a massive surveys of more than 60,000 households and 100,000 businesses, which in September found an unemployment rate of 4.1% and 254,000 new jobs.

\"But all the fake numbers in the world arent going to fool people dealing with the Biden-Harris economic disaster every day,\" Rubio said.

Okay senator!

Trump is set to deliver a keynote address at the National Rifle Associations Defend the 2nd event in Savannah, Georgia, on Oct. 22.

\"Kamala Harris and her far-left allies have big plans to erode Second Amendment protections. Donald J. Trump has proven himself a fighter for Americans right to keep and bear arms, NRA CEO Doug Hamlin said.

The NRA was once one of the biggest donors to Trumps campaign efforts, giving him more than $30 million amid the 2016 election. But a series of corruption scandals and legal woes since then have slashed the organizations power, influence and capacity for donating.

Trump did not oversee the passage of any major gun legislation during his stint in the White House.

The guest list for Trumps Butler, Pennsylvania rally tomorrow is a long one.

The former president is set to hold a campaign event in the same town where a gunman shot at him from a nearby rooftop in July. He will be joined by several family members of the man who died in the shooting, Corey Comperatore, along with a couple medical professionals who responded to the scene and another man who was shot and injured.

Other guests include right-wing billionaire Elon Musk, a dozen sheriffs of various Pennsylvania counties, Republican members of Congress and Trumps son, Eric Trump, with his wife, Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump.

An artist who painted Trump pumping his fist after he was grazed in the ear by a bullet is also expected to be there alongside the guy who owned the crane that suspended a large American flag seen in photos of the incident.

Elon Musk said hell be at Trumps rally Saturday in Butler, Pa., writing on social media that hell be there to support the former president when he returns to the location of a failed assassination attempt in July.

Trump leaned into the location on social media, where he shared a copy of the iconic photo of his fist in the air taken shortly after the attempt on his life. The photo has been modified, however: Trump appears to have posted a Photoshopped version, in which several of the Secret Service agents who were shielding him with their bodies have been removed.

Musk has dramatically increased his support for Trump in recent months, with the latter dangling the possibility of a cabinet-level position for the eccentric billionaire. Musk has reciprocated by reportedly donating $45 million a month to a pro-Trump super PAC, though hes disputed the accuracy of the reports.

Former President Barack Obama released taped ads on Friday endorsing Democratic candidates for Senate in three tough races: Michigan, Maryland and Florida.

For Michigan, Obama called U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin \"a true public servant.\" She faces Donald Trump-backed former U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers for a seat considered key to which party will control the Senate.

Obama endorsed Democrat Angela Alsobrooks for Maryland's open seat. \"Control of the Senate could come down to Maryland, he says in the ad.

And in Florida, he talked up Debbie Mucarsel-Powell's background. It could be a welcome endorsement from Florida Democrats to show that the state is in play.

\"These are the first tranche in a series of candidate-specific ads and robocalls that he has taped to support key down-ballot races,\" wrote Obama communications director Hannah Hankins on X.

Former President Barack Obama will hit the campaign trail for Vice President Kamala Harris with a month remaining until the election, kicking off a swing across battleground states this Thursday in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, according to a senior campaign official.

Harris and Obama have known each other for 20 years, since Obama was campaigning for U.S. Senate in Illinois.

At this years Democratic National Convention, Obama said Harris was ready for the job. This is a person who has spent her life fighting on behalf of people who need a voice and a champion.

Obama won Pennsylvania in 2008 and 2012. Donald Trump carried the state in 2016, but lost there to Joe Biden four years ago. Harris and Trump are now locked in a dead heat for the states 19 Electoral College votes.

Donald Trump, who has obsessed over crowd sizes, spoke to a nearly half-full venue during a campaign rally in Saginaw, Michigan, on Thursday, clips from Spectrum News DC's Taylor Popielarz show.

The GOP nominee's campaign reserved \"half the room\" at Saginaw Valley State University's Ryder Center as officials at the university said it could seat roughly 4,000 people, the Detroit Free Press reported.

The former president wound up speaking to an estimated 2,000 supporters on Thursday, according to the Midland Daily News.

Detroit Free Press' Paul Egan described the seating as \"mostly full\" before it became \"noticeably thinner\" as Trump's speech went on.

Trump's stop marked the first time in over two decades that a presidential candidate visited Saginaw Valley State University. Then-GOP nominee George W. Bush dropped by the Ryder Center just days before Election Day in 2000, MLive.com noted.

Roughly 7,500 people attended his campaign rally over three times the size of Trump's estimated crowd and the event included an appearance by actor Bo Derek.

The Minnesota governor is virtually attending an event to mobilize Muslim voters in favor of the Democratic ticket just days before the first anniversary marking Hamas deadly attack on Israel. Oct. 7 also marks the Israeli militarys ongoing U.S.-funded offensive against Palestinians in Gaza that broke the trust of many Democratic voters who either belong to Muslim and Arab communities or are their allies.

This is the first time a Democratic vice presidential candidate has directly engaged with the Muslim American community at such a scale before the election, according to Emgage Action, the group hosting the event called, Million Muslim Votes: A Way Forward.

I know the pain of this community is deep, the candidate told Emgage. The scale of death and destruction in Gaza is staggering and devastating. Tens of thousands of innocent civilians killed, families fleeing for safety over and over again this war must end and it must end now.

The Muslim and Arab communities are becoming increasingly divided as the election inches closer, with some saying they will still vote for Harris to ensure a Trump loss. Others are maintaining their refusal to support a candidate who wont substantially deviate from Bidens current Gaza policy, Democrat or not.

The Uncommitted movement, which had an unprecedented level of political power in the Democratic Party and the primary elections, made the recent decision to not endorse Harris for president, citing her refusal to directly listen to Muslim, Arab and Palestinian Americans whose loved ones are dying abroad with U.S. weaponry. Walz, meanwhile, was credited for expressing understanding during Minnesotas primary that resulted in a massive number of uncommitted protest votes.

The Emgage event falls on the same day as the launch of Arab Americans for Harriz-Walz, a group of heartbroken and at times deeply traumatized voters many of whom voted uncommitted in the primary who stress that a Trump administration would be even worse for Gaza and Lebanon than a Harris administration.

His policies have only deepened the struggles and dangers our communities face today. We cannot afford to go back to that, the groups statement said. This election is our chance to turn out for progress. Together, we can protect the future from the hands of anti-Arab bigots like Donald Trump and build one where our voices are heard, our values respected and our communities prioritized.

At her Wisconsin rally, Harris emphasized her track record of treating Democrats and Republicans equally.

In all my decades in law enforcement, I never asked a victim or a witness, Are you a Republican or a Democrat? The only question I ever asked was, Are you OK? Harris said. And that is the kind of president we deserve, and I pledge to you that is the kind of president I will be.

Her remarks come two days after Trump tried to knock the Biden administration on its Hurricane Helene response, falsely claiming the president was ignoring needs in Republican areas and not reaching out to state leaders there. Critics were quick to point out that during his presidential term, Trump denied aid to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria and threatened to deny aid to Californias wildfire victims. Earlier today, an official from the Trump administration told Politico staffers had to show Trump how many supporters he had in Southern California before hed grant wildfire aid to the area.

Former Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, one of the Republicans stumping for Harris, called on members of her party to be vigilant about people like Trump rising to power.

His effort to overturn the 2020 election is depravity, and we must never become numb to it, Cheney said at a Harris rally in Wisconsin.

Trump is petty, he is vindictive and he is cruel, Cheney stated.

Iconic musician Bruce Springsteen endorsed Harris and Walz on Thursday, around four years after throwing his support behind Biden. Springsteen said in a social media video that, with full knowledge that my opinions no more or less important than those of any of my fellow citizens,\" he urged people to vote for the Democrats.

While sitting in a classic diner, Springsteen said that the U.S. is perhaps the most divided it has been since the Civil War, and Harris and Walz want to help all Americans.

They want to grow our economy in a way that benefits all, not just the few like me on top, he said with a chuckle. Thats the vision of America Ive been consistently writing about for 55 years.

Donald Trump is the most dangerous candidate for president in my lifetime. His disdain for the sanctity of our Constitution, the sanctity of democracy, the sanctity of the rule of law, and the sanctity of the peaceful transfer of power should disqualify him from the office of president ever again, Springsteen said.

Trump's lawyers told a judge that the Supreme Courts controversial decision in Fischer v. United States warrants a dismissal on at least two of the four criminal charges the former president faces in connection to his alleged conspiracy to subvert the 2020 election.

The Supreme Court ruled in June that federal prosecutors overstepped when they charged or convicted Jan. 6 rioters under a specific obstruction statute. Justices found the law should have only applied to matters involving evidence tampering.

Trumps attorneys want counts two and three of his indictment dismissed; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding and obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding.

Paying subjects of news interviews is generally considered unethical because the subject might tailor their responses to please the interviewer or outlet and its particularly unusual for the wife of a high-profile political candidate to ask for money.

The publisher's president, Tony Lyons, told CNN that the request was the result of an \"internal miscommunication\" and that Melania Trump didn't know about it. She did receive a similar sum for past speeches given at events hosted by the Log Cabin Republicans, however.

The memoir, Melania, is due out on Oct. 8.

A new report cites two former Trump administration officials' recollections of Trump's urge to politicize natural disasters while in office. It comes amid Trump's false claims that the Biden administration is slow-walking aid to Republican-leaning areas hit by Hurricane Helene last week.

In one case, Trump reportedly did not want to send aid to California in 2018 as it fought deadly wildfires.

We went as far as looking up how many votes he got in those impacted areas ... to show him these are people who voted for you, one of the officials, Mark Harvey, told Politico.

The International Association of Fire Fighters, an early backer of Joe Bidens 2020 presidential campaign, announced Thursday that it wont endorse a candidate for president.

The unions decision comes on the heels of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters opting for a non-endorsement after its executive board found no definitive support among members for either partys nominee.

The membership of the Teamsters, not unlike other blue-collar unions, is thought to be skewing more Republican. In July, Teamsters President Sean OBrien became the first Teamster to address the Republican National Convention. At the time of its non-endorsement, the Teamsters released internal polling showing a preference among members for Donald Trump over Kamala Harris.

The IAFF said in a statement that its executive board voted by a 1.2% margin not to back either presidential candidate, though it didnt get into what about either candidate may have influenced its decision. Its not the first time the union declined to get involved in the presidential contest it did not endorse in 2016 after backing Barack Obama in the previous two elections.

IAFF Executive Board determined that we are better able to advocate for our members and make progress on the issues that matter to them if we, as a union, are standing shoulder-to-shoulder, IAFF President Edward Kelly said.

Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is heading up a new group of Republicans backing Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas) in his quest to unseat Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).

Kinzinger will co-chair the coalition, Republicans for Allred, alongside former Texas state Rep. Jason Villalba. In a release on Allred's campaign website, Kinzinger, who has been trying to rouse anti-Trump sentiment in Texas for months, called the group a sincere effort to reach Republican voters.

Youre going to see other folks come out and say look, were going to put slight differences aside because we actually believe in this country and what it stands for like Colin does and unlike Ted Cruz does,'\" Kinzinger said.

A Cruz spokesperson called the new group \"fake\" and said Kinzinger is a \"disgruntled former congressman who is on a vindictive rampage against everyone with an 'R' next to their name.\"

As Harris is traveling to Wisconsin for a Thursday campaign event alongside former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) a prominent GOP critic of Trump the Republican nominee's campaign is pointing reporters to an old social media post in which Cheney criticized Harris.

[Kamala Harris] has a more liberal voting record than Bernie Sanders & Elizabeth Warren, Cheney wrote in August 2020, shortly after Harris was announced as Joe Biden's vice presidential running mate. Her radical leftist views-raising taxes, banning gun sales, taxpayer $ for abortion & illegal immigrant health care, eliminating private health insurance-would be devastating for America.\"

Trisha Calvarese, the Democrat challenging Rep. Lauren Boebert (R) in Colorados 4th District, released her first TV ad Thursday.

The 30-second spot features Danielle Robinson, the widow of U.S. Army Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson, who died from a rare lung cancer at the age of 39 after being exposed to toxic burn pits during his service in Iraq. Boebert voted against the bill that expanded VA health care coverage for veterans like Robinson, who were exposed to toxic burn pits, agent orange and other toxic substances.

Boebert also heckled President Biden during the State of the Union when Robinson was honored.

[Boebert] didnt just turn her back on veterans and their familiesshe made it clear where her priorities lie when she heckled the President as he honored Heaths memory at the State of the Union, Robinson said in a statement accompanying the ads release.

Calvarese has produced strong fundraising numbers despite Colorados 4th District leaning heavily Republican. Boebert fled her previous district in western Colorado for CD-4 after narrowly avoiding defeat there in 2022.

Now that special counsel Jack Smith has laid out the gory details and evidence he intends to use at Donald Trumps long-delayed Jan. 6 election subversion trial, the former president asked a federal judge for a five-week extension on his current deadline of Oct. 17 to respond.

Trump wants to file by Nov. 21, leaving any attempt to address the brief for well after Election Day. Hes indicated he also wants to file a longer reply and one that would be close in size to Smiths tome. But that's not his only ask: Trump wants permission to file a motion to dismiss the case outright by Dec. 19. That particular deadline, if granted, would be exactly four years to the day that Trump sent his tweet about the big protest on Jan. 6, 2021.

The Walz-Vance vice presidential debate on Tuesday evening drew nearly 43.2 million viewers, according to Nielsen.

The figures represent a 25% decline from the last VP showdown between Harris and former Vice President Mike Pence in the 2020 election cycle, according to Variety.

The event also drew a smaller audience compared to last months presidential debate, which was watched by over 67 million people.

Vice President Kamala Harris is heading to Ripon, Wisconsin the birthplace of the Republican Party for a campaign rally with former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney on Thursday.

Harris plans to use the event to make a direct appeal to Republican and independent voters, a campaign official said. Harris will promise to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law, arguing she is not an ideologue or rigid partisan.

Liz Cheney, who broke with Trump following the Jan. 6 insurrection, is perhaps the most prominent recent Republican elected official to back Harris. Other prominent Republicans who broke with Trump, including Mesa, Arizona, Mayor John Giles and former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, had speaking roles at the Democratic National Convention.

A one-room schoolhouse built in 1853 which still stands in Ripon is considered the birthplace of the GOP.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump lashed out over a newly released court filing in which special counsel Jack Smith argued that the Supreme Courts immunity ruling doesnt cover Trumps actions surrounding Jan. 6, 2021.

The release of this falsehood-ridden, Unconstitutional, J6 brief immediately following Tim Walzs disastrous Debate performance, and 33 days before the Most Important Election in the History of our Country, is another obvious attempt by the Harris-Biden regime to undermine and Weaponize American Democracy, and INTERFERE IN THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, he wrote.

He continued: Deranged Jack Smith, the hand-picked Prosecutor of the Harris-Biden DOJ, and Washington, D.C. based Radical Left Democrats, are HELL BENT on continuing to Weaponize the Justice Department in an attempt to cling to power. 'TRUMP' is dominating the Election cycle, leading in the Polls, and the Radical Democrats throughout the Deep State are totally 'freaking out.' This entire case is a Partisan, Unconstitutional, Witch Hunt, that should be dismissed, entirely, just like the Florida case was dismissed!

Vance has continued to duck questions about whether he believes Trump lost in 2020 as he returns to the campaign trail.

At Tuesday night's vice presidential debate, Vance refused to answer whether Trump lost four years ago, instead insisting he is focused on the future.
Walz called it a damning non-answer.

At a rally in Auburn Hills, Michigan, Wednesday, Vance was asked by a reporter why he swerved the question on the debate stage.

Vance replied that the media is obsessed with talking about the election of four years ago, and did not admit Trump was defeated.

In this newly released court filing, special counsel Jack Smith argues the Supreme Courts recent presidential immunity ruling does not apply to the actions that prompted the four felony counts Trump now faces in the revised indictment.

In Trump v. United States, the court held that presidents are immune from prosecution for certain official conductincluding the defendants use of the Justice Department in furtherance of his scheme, as was alleged in the original indictmentand remanded to this Court to determine whether the remaining allegations against the defendant are immunized, Smith writes.

The answer to that question is no,\" he added.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee is canceling its remaining independent expenditure ads and shifting them to so-called hybrid ads jointly run with GOP Senate candidates, according to two sources tracking media buys a reflection of Democrats fundraising advantages in key states.

Politico first reported the move. The NRSC is canceling $7 million worth of ads set to run in Nevada the only remaining independent expenditure ads it planned to run this cycle and replacing them with hybrid ads. In Nevada, Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen has a significant lead in public polls over Republican Sam Brown.

Hybrid ads can be purchased from television stations at the rate guaranteed to candidates, which is typically much lower than what outside groups like the NRSC or super PACs pay. A source familiar with the NRSCs strategy told HuffPost that switching to hybrid ads would enable Republicans to use their cash more efficiently, noting outside groups were paying 10 times what candidates paid for the same airtime in the Las Vegas media market.

The drawback is at least half of each ad needs to be spent attacking the other party broadly rather than focusing on the opposing candidate, making the ads slightly clunky.

While the NRSC and its Democratic equivalent, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, have raised and spent similar amounts of cash this cycle the DSCC had $46 million on hand at the end of August, according to Federal Election Commission records, while the NRSC has $43 million Democratic candidates have significantly outraised their GOP counterparts, forcing the NRSC to look for ways to help their candidates keep up on the airwaves.

Harris is leading Trump 52%-48% in Wisconsin, a new Marquette Law School Poll found.

The survey, conducted between Sept. 18-26, showed Harris maintaining an identical 4-point lead against Trump among both registered and likely voters in the state.

Meanwhile, 50% of respondents said they believe Harris is likely to win the presidential race, marking a 12% increase on her perceived chance of prevailing against Trump compared to a similar survey conducted in July.

Corey Lewandowski, a top Trump aide, is refusing to say whether his boss lost the 2020 election.

During a tense exchange, CNN's Jim Acosta pressed Lewandowski over Trump running mate JD Vance, who dodged a question on the last presidential election at Tuesday night's vice presidential debate.

Corey, why is this so difficult for the Trump campaign to answer? I mean, its 2024, Acosta asked. Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election? Can you answer that?

Lewandowski deflected, accusing Acosta of attempting to relitigate the 2020 election instead of discussing the cost of living crisis.

Challenged again, Lewandowski picked at Acosta's assertion there was no widespread fraud four years ago.

In any case, he didn't answer the question. Watch the exchange here.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said last nights VP debate gave Americans a chance to contrast Walz's and Vances characters and policy positions, and she suggested the Ohio senator tried to conceal his extreme stances on a number of issues, including abortion.

\"You saw the difference between truth and trust, in terms of Walz, and con and slick, in terms of Vance, Pelosi told CNN's \"Inside Politics.\"

Pelosi also spoke out about GOP attacks on reproductive rights, claiming that Trump supports the passage of a federal abortion ban. Trump has said he will not sign such a ban, but his campaign has ties to Project 2025, a policy blueprint for a second Trump administration that recommends sharp restrictions on abortion. The former president has also tried to distance himself from the 900-page document.

Asked to weigh in on Trumps accusations that the moderators of the CBS News VP debate, Norah ODonnell and Margaret Brennan, were extremely biased, Karoline Leavitt, the national press secretary for his campaign, singled out their move to correct one of Vance's statements on immigration.

When they fact-checked Senator Vance and shut off his mic, I thought that was pretty alarming, especially since the rules they agreed to were not to fact-check the candidates on the stage, Leavitt told Newsmax. They just could not help themselves, because I think they were getting triggered by Sen. Vance speaking the truth so powerfully and so eloquently.

Following last nights VP debate, Walz is embarking on a bus tour in Pennsylvania, making several stops in the key battleground state, accompanied by Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.). As part of this tour, he will take part in a political engagement with local Latino leaders in Reading this afternoon.

Harris is traveling to Augusta, Georgia, where she will speak to the federal efforts to support recovery efforts from the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene.

Trump does not currently have any public events listed for today, while Vance is scheduled to deliver remarks in two cities in Michigan: Marne and Auburn Hills.

Trump continues to refuse invitations to debate Harris for a second time, this time using Vance's performance against Walz as an excuse.

The GOP candidate is avoiding another head-to-head with his presidential rival after Harris, by many estimations, successfully baited Trump into a series of meltdowns and won the debate. Trump, however, sees it differently.

Lyin Kamala just put out a request for another Debate because they lost so badly tonight - Again, its like the fighter who lost, gets up and says, I WANT A REMATCH, he wrote on Truth Social after the Walz-Vance match-up. I beat Biden, I then beat her, and Im not looking to do it again, too far down the line.

Walz will do a \"media blitz\" in the coming days, according to a source familiar with the Harris campaign's post-debate plans.

Walz will do two national TV interviews and appear on a late show and a pop culture podcast, as well as record several digital ads. So far Walz has mostly kept to campaign rallies since Harris picked him as her running mate in August.

Walz at times seemed nervous next to Vance during Tuesday's debate, a contrast some TV commentators attributed to Vance's more frequent interactions with journalists in recent weeks.

The Harris campaign on Wednesday morning made an advertisement out Tim Walz' sharpest exchange with JD Vance during Tuesday's vice presidential debate.

The ad shows Vance claiming, wrongly, that Trump \"peacefully gave over power\" at the end of his term in 2021, when in fact Trump incited a deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol in an effort to overturn his loss.

\"He is still saying he didn't lose the election,\" Walz responded. \"I would just ask that: Did he lose the 2020 election?\"

Vance hesitated, then said, \"Tim, I'm focused on the future,\" an answer Walz characterized as \"a damning non-answer.\"

The vice presidential debate between Tim Walz and JD Vance looks unlikely to move the needle of the election campaign.

A post-debate CBS News poll showed 41% of respondents said Walz won the debate, and 42% proclaimed Vance the victor. Some 17% said it was a tie.

The family of Amber Thurman, a Black woman from Georgia who died following the states abortion ban, issued a statement after the vice presidential debate thanking Walz for mentioning her.

Tonight, we commend Governor Tim Walz for telling Ambers story and for his unwavering commitment to defending womens reproductive rights, the statement, provided by the familys attorney, reads. Ambers tragic death was a direct result of Georgia's archaic and dangerously restrictive abortion laws, which denied her the life-saving care she so desperately needed.

Thurman, a mother of a 6-year-old son, died from complications from a medication abortion she got in North Carolina. She traveled to North Carolina because she was too far along to get an abortion in Georgia under the states then-six-week abortion ban. She was delayed in receiving life-saving care once she was back in Georgia and died at the hospital.

We strongly condemn the republican platform that seeks to further restrict womens access to necessary healthcare under the false guise of protection, the familys statement continues. We are grieving an unimaginable loss that no family should have to endure. We must continue to fight against laws that put womens lives at risk, and we are grateful to leaders like Governor Walz who advocate for common sense laws while exhibiting such compassion.

Walz told Thurmans story during the debate, telling viewers that theres a very real chance that [if] Amber Thurman lived in Minnesota, shed be alive today.

Both campaigns released statements shortly after the debate concluded.

Tonight, Governor Walz showed exactly why Vice President Harris picked him: he is a leader who cares about the issues that matter most to the American people, said Harris-Walz campaign chair Jen OMalley Dillon. In the debate, Americans got to see a real contrast: a straight talker focused on sharing real solutions, and a slick politician who spent the whole night defending Donald Trumps division and failures.

O'Malley Dillon also pressed for another debate between Trump and Harris.

\"Vice President Harris believes that the American people deserve to see her and Trump on the debate stage one more time. She will be in Atlanta on October 23 Donald Trump should step up and face the voters,\" read the statement.

Trump-Vance campaign managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita leaned into hyperbole in their assessment of the Ohio senators performance.

Senator Vance unequivocally won tonight's debate in dominating fashion. It was the best debate performance from any Vice-Presidential candidate in history, read his statement. Senator Vance spoke the truth, eloquently prosecuted the case against Kamala Harris' failed record, and effectively held Governor Tim Walz accountable for his lies on behalf of the Harris-Biden Administration.

As a Congress member, Walz staked out a position as a Second Amendment champion, winning an \"A\" rating from the National Rifle Association. But after the 2017 mass shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas, Walz increasingly embraced reform. The moderators asked him why he once opposed an Assault Weapons Ban, but now supported the measure.

I sat in that office with those Sandy Hook parents, Walz said. Ive become friends with school shooters. Ive seen it.

Walz, who at times seemed nervous on stage, appeared to misspeak, likely meaning to say hed befriended victims of school shooters. But thats what he said.

He then contended that Americans could enact gun reform measures while still respecting the Second Amendment, noting that he was a lifelong firearm owner who used to keep a shotgun in his car in high school so he could hunt pheasants after football practice.

We have an epidemic of children getting guns and shooting themselves, he said, later adding: We start looking for a scapegoat sometimes it just is the guns. Its just the guns. And there are things you can do about it.

The moderators asked Vance who has repeatedly claimed there were issues with the certification of the 2020 election if he would accept the results of the November election.

Vance countered that Harris was involved in censorship at an industrial scale and that it was a threat greater to democracy than Trump urging his supporters to march at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Walz shot back that censorship has nothing to do with the prosecution of Jan. 6 rioters.

This idea that theres censorship to stop people from threatening to kill someone, thats not censorship, Walz said. Censorship is book-banning.

This was the only mention during the debate of so-called culture war issues that have directly impacted the lives of LGBTQ+ students and students of color.

In 2023, 23 states enacted more than 4,300 book bans, according to a report from PEN America, a nonprofit that fights to protect free speech. Some of the most challenged books were those that include stories about people of color, the LGBTQ+ community and other underrepresented groups.

In his closing remarks, Walz name-checked Taylor Swift as a supporter and thanked the folks who missed 'Dancing With The Stars tonight for watching. He also used the opportunity to remind viewers of the highly critical remarks Vance made of Trump before becoming his running mate.

He said Donald Trump makes the people I care about afraid. A lot of America feels that way. We don't need to be afraid, Walz said, referencing some of Vance's deleted tweets from 2016. He promised that all Americans will have the opportunity for advancement under a Harris presidency.

Let's look for a new day where everybody gets that opportunity and everybody gets a chance to thrive, Walz said.

Vance said that one topic that didnt get discussed was energy. He recalled his underprivileged childhood in Ohio, saying his grandmother could not always turn on the heat at night.

I believe that we are a rich and prosperous enough country that every American, whether rich or poor, should be able to turn on the heat in the middle of a cold winter night. Thats gotten more difficult thanks to Kamala Harris policies, Vance said.

Shes been the vice president for three-and-a-half years, Vance said, adding that her policies have made this country worse. As he has throughout the debate, Vance ignored President Bidens role.

He then ended with a contradictory message, saying the U.S. needed both change and a president who has done this before.

Trump has often said at rallies and in his rambling press conferences that fixing the cost-of-living crisis is as simple as drilling for more oil in the U.S., claiming that would affect prices of goods and services downstream. Many experts are dubious.

The two candidates had a somewhat lengthy back-and-forth about whether Vance would try to challenge this years election results, as Trump tried to do in 2020.

The vice president at the time, Mike Pence, famously went against Trumps wishes and followed the law by certifying the election results for Biden, who won the election. The decision led Trump to direct his followers to verbally attack Pence, who faced threats of violence on Jan. 6, 2021.

Vance has previously said he would not have certified the election if he were in Pences place, and repeatedly dodged the question tonight about whether he would accept if Trump lost the November election.

He lost the election, it is not a debate. It is not anything anywhere other than in Donald Trumps world, Walz said. Because look, when Mike Pence made that decision to certify that election? That is why Mike Pence isnt on this stage.

Earlier this year, Vance said he would have allowed Republicans in Congress to steal the 2020 election for Trump.

But asked about Trump's election theft attempt on Tuesday Norah O'Donnell asked if Vance would challenge a Trump loss again this year Vance dodged the question entirely.

Here's what Vance told ABC News in February (emphasis added): \"If I had been vice president, I would have told the states, like Pennsylvania, Georgia and so many others, that we needed to have multiple slates of electors and I think the U.S. Congress should have fought over it from there.\"

Crucially, this was Trump's exact plan: spread doubt over Joe Biden's legitimate win, establish fraudulent \"alternate\" elector slates many of whom later faced criminal charges and then pressure Congress to flip the election result in favor of Trump.

But on Tuesday, Vance changed topics when asked about Jan. 6, talking about online censorship. He only glancingly answered the question, saying, \"What President Trump has said is that there were problems is in 2020, and my own belief is that we should fight about those issues, debate those issues, peacefully in the public square, and that's all I've said and all that's all Donald Trump has said.\"

This papers over both Vance's own statements, and Trump's months-long effort to cultivate a mob in order to overturn the results of a legitimate election.

When asked how he would confront gun violence in the United States, Vance noted that crimes are often committed with stolen firearms. Then he pivoted to immigration.

We know that thanks to Kamala Harriss open border, weve seen a massive influx in the number of illegal guns run by Mexican drug cartels, Vance said. The amount of illegal guns in our country is higher today than it was three and a half years ago.

Vances comment is glaringly incorrect. The traffic of illegal weapons flows overwhelmingly from the United States which boasts a booming gun industry and an easily accessed legal market to Mexico, where firearms are tightly restricted but widely used by criminals.

The Mexican government recovers thousands of firearms each year that were first sold in the United States. Guns trafficked from the United States routinely turn up at crime scenes and in the hands of drug trafficking organizations, prompting the Mexican government to turn to the U.S. federal courts for help.

When discussion turned to health care, Vance repeated a false claim that he and Trump have been making -- that Trump tried to save the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.

But this time, Vance added an extra layer: He said Trump tried to act in a bipartisan manner.

That too is false.

A quick refresher on the relevant history

1) Trump campaigned for president in 2016 on a promise to repeal the Affordable Care Act, then spent the first year of his presidency trying to do just that.

2) Trump repeatedly made promises like were going to have insurance for everybody. The Republican plans he pushed to enact would have caused millions to lose insurance, while undermining protections for people with pre-existing conditions.

3) These plans had zero bipartisan potential, because Democrats refused to support legislation that would cause such massive health insurance losses.

4) None of these plans could get through the Senate, because a handful of Republicans joined Democrats to vote against them.In other words, the only bipartisan votes during the repeal debate were when GOP lawmakers like Lisa Murkowski and John McCain locked arms with Democrats to stop Trumps Republican bills from becoming law.

A federal program of paid family leave will enhance the workforce, enhance the families and make it easier to have the children that you want, Walz said.

Vance offered a plan to allow federal money to pay for religious daycare services as one solution.

Walz cracked a joke about Trump's \"concept of a plan\" to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

\"When Donald Trump said, 'I've got a concept of a plan,' it cracked me up as a fourth grade teacher, because my kids would have never given me that,\" Walz said.

The Harris/Walz campaign released a report Monday detailing what Trump could do to the ACA if elected, and on Tuesday launched a seven-figure ad blitz highlighting Trump's comments from the debate.

Walz fielded a question about how he and Harris would address the U.S. housing shortage.

The problem we have had is that we have a lot of folks that see housing as another commodity. It can be bought up, shifted, moved around. They are not living in those houses, Walz began.

He spoke in favor of programs that made housing more accessible, such as the veterans home loans program that gives people assistance with down payments.

We should be able to find some common ground, but we cannot blame immigrants because that is not the case in many cities, Walz said.

Vance responded to say that Trumps plan is to seize federal land to build more federal housing, although he did not say which tracts of land would be used. He then dodged a request to defend his assertion that migrants are driving higher housing prices, saying Harris was making it harder to develop our resources.

Vance, who vehemently opposes gun control legislation, was asked if he believes holding parents responsible for their childs actions could help curb mass shootings.

The senator said that it would depend on the individual case before proposing what he thinks could actually help curb mass shootings including, bizarrely, strengthening doors.

What do we do about the schools? What do we do to protect our kids? I say this, not loving the answer, because I dont want my kids to go to school in a school that feels unsafe or where there are visible signs of security, Vance said. But I feel that we have to increase security in our schools.

We have to make the doors lock better. We have to make the doors stronger. We have to make the windows stronger and, of course, weve got to increase school resource officers, he continued. Because the idea that we can magically wave a wand and take guns out of the hands of bad guys, it doesnt fit with recent experience.

Trump is still posting to Truth Social, doing lots of name-calling. He's repeatedly called Walz \"Tampon Tim\" and \"low IQ,\" and claimed, without evidence, that Walz is lying.

\"JD is steady and strong, Tampon Tim is sweating bullets, he is nervous and 'weird,'\" Trump posted, lobbing an insult Walz has used for Republicans.

Trump also called out the moderators for fact-checking Vance.

Turning to the topic of reproductive care, CBS News moderator Norah ODonnell began by addressing Walz.

After Roe v. Wade was overturned, you signed a bill into law that made Minnesota one of the least restrictive states in the nation when it comes to abortion, ODonnell began. Former President Trump said in the last debate that you believe abortion in the ninth month is absolutely fine. Yes or no?

Thats not what the bill says, but look, this is the issue thats on everyones minds, Walz began his response. In Minnesota, what we did is restore Roe v. Wade. We made sure that we put women in charge of their healthcare, Walz said.

He then pointed to Project 2025, the hard-right blueprint for a second Trump administration that calls for strict national bans on abortion care.

\"We're pro-women. We're pro-freedom. We know what the implications are to not being that. Women having miscarriages, women not getting the care,\" Walz said.

Walz appeared caught off-guard when the moderators asked him to explain his past comments saying he was in Hong Kong during the deadly Tiananmen Square protests, noting that media reports have found he didnt go to Asia until months after the protests.

Walz spent a while talking about what he was doing in China, briefly touching on the question by saying, I've tried to do the best I can, but I've not been perfect, and I'm a knucklehead at times.

When the moderators once again asked him to explain the discrepancy, Walz said he misspoke about the dates.

In response to an early question about climate change, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz slammed former President Donald Trump for reportedly soliciting $1 billion in oil industry campaign donations in exchange for rolling back many of President Joe Bidens green energy policies.

To call it a hoax and to take the oil company executives to Mar-a-Lago, say, Give me money for my campaign and Ill let you do whatever you want, Walz said. We can be smarter about that, and an all-of-the-above energy policy is exactly what [Vice President Kamala Harris] is doing, creating those jobs right here.

Asked if he shares Trumps view that climate change is a hoax, J.D. Vance said that if Harris and Democrats were serious about confronting climate change, they would push for more energy production and manufacturing at home.

Thats not what theyre doing, he claimed. So clearly Kamala Harris doesnt believe her own rhetoric on this. If she did, she would actually agree with Donald Trumps energy policies.

Walz twice noted that the United States has never produced more oil or natural gas.

Were also producing more clean energy, he said. The solution for us is to continue to move forward, that climate change is real. Reducing our impact is absolutely critical. But this is not a false choice. You can do that at the same time you're creating the jobs that were seeing all across the country. Thats exactly what this administration has done. We are seeing us becoming an energy superpower for the future, not just the current.

The Democratic candidate called out Vances claim that experts cant be trusted more than Trump.

Look, if youre going to be president, you do not have all the answers. Donald Trump believes he does, Walz said. If you need heart surgery, listen to the people at the Mayo Clinic, not Donald Trump.

The governor then spoke directly to the teachers, nurses and truck drivers about their taxes, as a way to segue into Trumps problem with his own taxes.

Walz called out Vance for spreading lies about people in the town of Springfield, Ohio. Vance repeatedly spread debunked rumors that Haitians who legally immigrated to the town were eating their neighbor's pets, a move Walz argued was meant to \"demonize\" immigrants.

Walz argued Vance said, \"I will create stories to bring attention to this.\" Vance did justify spreading the widely debunked rumor by arguing he would make up stories to capture the media's attention on the issue.

\"If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then thats what Im going to do, Dana, he told Bash. Because you guys are completely letting Kamala Harris coast.

Debate moderator Margaret Brennan took a moment to fact-check comments made by Vance, who said he was most worried about people in Springfield, Ohio, who have had their lives destroyed by Kamala Harris open border,\" suggesting immigrants there are in the country illegally.

Springfield has been in the news because of Trump and Vances false claims that Haitian migrants there are eating residents pets and making housing more costly.

Just to clarify for our viewers, Springfield, Ohio, does have a large number of Haitian migrants who have legal status temporary protected status, Brennan said.

Vance cut in to sensationalize the CBP One app, which U.S. Customs and Border Protection instructs migrants to use for the limited purpose of booking an appointment at the border to declare asylum. Vance suggested it is essentially \"a Kamala Harris open border wand.\"

Donald Trump repeatedly promised during his 2016 presidential campaign that he would make Mexico pay for a wall along the border with the U.S. but failed to make it happen while in office, Tim Walz said.

\"Donald Trump had four years. He had four years to do this, and he promised you, America, how easy it would be. 'I'll build you a big, beautiful wall, and Mexico will pay for it.' Less than 2% of that wall got built, and Mexico didn't pay a dime,\" Walz said.

Fact check: True.

The president of Mexico refused to pay for a wall in 2017, and Trump wound up raiding U.S. military funds in order to pay for wall construction.

Both Walz and JD Vance endorsed wall-building during the debate, with Vance directly calling for construction and Walz endorsing legislation that contained wall funding.

Im sure Governor Walz joins me in saying our hearts go out to those innocent people, our prayers go out to them. And we want as robust and aggressive as a federal response as we can get to save as many lives as possible, he started.

Lets say its true for the sake of argument, so we dont argue about weird science; lets say its true,\" he added, implying that he doesnt believe carbon emissions have anything to do with climate change.

Vance also claimed that he and Trump want clean air and water.

When asked to address his campaigns promise to carry out mass deportations, Vance trotted out the GOPs oft-repeated lie that immigrants are to blame for the countrys fentanyl crisis.

Democrats have opened the floodgates at the border, Vance charged, and what it's meant is that a lot of fentanyl is coming into our country. He went on to claim that migrant children have been used as drug trafficking mules another claim with no backing.

In reality, recent findings show that 90% of convicted fentanyl traffickers were U.S. citizens, and just 0.02% of migrants arrested for illegal crossings had any fentanyl on them.

Speaking about his level of Secret Service protection after two assassination attempts, Trump claimed that agency officials would not boost his security last week due to the United Nations general assembly.

Washington would not get us they said that we have to guard the United Nations, which meant the president of North Korea, whos basically trying to kill me, Trump said of the agency at his Wisconsin press conference. So they want to guard him but they dont want to guard me.

He appears to have confused the supreme leader of North Korea with Masoud Pezeshkian, the president of Iran believed to support Trumps assassination. Pezeshkian spoke at the United Nations last week; Kim Jong Un has never visited the U.S.

At the press conference, Trump doubled down on a statement he made in 2020 minimizing the traumatic brain injuries of 109 US troops reported after an Iranian missile attack in Iraq. His response came after a reporter asked if he believed he should have been tougher on Iran after the 2020 attack.

\"First of all, injured. What is injured? Injured meansYou mean because they had a headache because the bombs never hit the fort,\" he asked before seemingly mixing up Iraq and Iran and going on to insult the reporter who asked the question.

There was nobody ever tougher on Iraq [sic], he continued. And if you were a truthful reporter, which youre not, you would tell the following: None of those very accurate missiles hit our fort. They all hit outside. And there was nobody hurt other than the sound that was loud. And some people said that hurt and I accept that.

He made similar remarks about the attack in 2020: I heard they had headaches and a couple of other things ... and I can report it is not very serious.

Trump addressed his refusal to sit down with 60 Minutes, saying that he wanted the showrunners to apologize to him first. A 2020 interview with the long-running CBS News program ended abruptly when Trump decided he didnt like journalist Lesley Stahls questions and follow-ups.

Trump said in Wisconsin that he wanted an apology specifically because Stahl expressed the view of many in the intelligence community at the time that the Hunter Biden laptop story was a Russian plant. That view has since shifted, as the laptop now appears to be legitimate. The timing of its emergence shortly before the 2020 election had raised suspicions.

Trump said at one point during his Wisconsin press conference that he has been receiving lots of calls from people urging him to support school choice, which is a term for policy that gives parents vouchers to use at a school of their choice as an alternate to their local public schools.

I even got a call from Rupert Murdoch, who I have a lot of respect for. He goes, School choice, school choice, you have to go for school choice. That was just today, Trump said, referencing the conservative media scion. I said, I didnt know he was so into school choice. But he feels very strongly about it. Hes a good man, too.

\"I believe that school choice is the civil rights issue of our time,\" Trump asserted later. He bashed public schools, claiming they churned out graduates who can \"barely read or write\" and \"push radical gender ideology on children.\"

Trump has backed out of a 60 Minutes primetime election interview, a longstanding CBS special that features both candidates.

For over half a century, 60 Minutes has invited the Democratic and Republican tickets to appear on our broadcast as Americans head to the polls, the program said in a statement.

The statement said both the Harris and Trump campaign agreed to sit down for an interview, but that Trumps campaign backed out.

After initially accepting 60 Minutes request for an interview with Scott Pelley, former President Trumps campaign has decided not to participate, the statement said. Pelley will address this Monday evening.

Harris will speak with correspondent Bill Whitaker during the special, which airs Monday at 8 p.m. ET.

The Trump campaign released a 30-second television advertisement using the escalating turmoil in the Middle East to characterize Harris as a TikTok performer unfit to serve as commander-in-chief.

The ad features what appear to be artificial intelligence-generated images of Russian officials, Hamas militants and Irans Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei reacting to real footage of Harris dancing in light-hearted moments, and in one instance of President Joe Biden stumbling on the stairs to Air Force One.

Like us, China also saw their weakness, the narrator begins, while quoting a Bloomberg article about the reaction to Harriss nomination in Chinas state-run media. The word weak is how the reporter characterizes the response, but the ad implies a Chinese official said it directly.

The spot goes on to repeat Trumps frequent claims that Biden and Harris leadership emboldened Russia to invade Ukraine, the Palestinian group Hamas to invade Israel and even for Iran to strike Israel with ballistic missiles, which the ad treated as something that has yet to happen, suggesting it was produced before the missiles landed on Tuesday afternoon.

The message of the ad is confusing, however, since it claims somehow that Irans decision, which contributed to the sense of chaos around the Biden presidency, was designed to help Harris.

Iran thinks Harris is so incompetent, new intel shows they're trying to help Harris win the election, the narrator says, as the image of a headline about Iran preparing a ballistic missile attack on Israel appears on screen. America doesn't need another TikTok performer. We need the strength that will protect us.

The Cook Political Report on Tuesday shifted its forecast for the Texas U.S. Senate contest in Democrats' favor.

Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas) has been gaining in the polls on incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), prompting the nonpartisan political handicapper to rate the race as \"lean\" Republican rather than a \"likely\" GOP win.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee recently announced big advertising campaigns in Texas in Florida to boost their chances of keeping the Senate. And the fact that Cruz fled the state for Cancun during a winter storm in 2021 is hurting his reelection bid.

\"Lone Star state still remains tough for a Democrat, but Allred's fundraising/heavy ad spending, plus Cruz on defense on abortion + Cancun has tightened contest,\" Cook Political Report's Jessica Taylor said on social media.

Former Rep. Tim Ryan, the Ohio Democrat who lost a Senate race to Vance in 2022, was the last person to share a debate stage with him. Slate called him to ask what twe should expect ahead of tonights vice presidential debate.

I feel like JD Vance is the kind of person who will say whatever he needs to say to advance himself with very little regard to the truth, Ryan told the outlet. To me, hes just a scared little boy behind the beard, and he wants everyone else to be as scared as he is.

Ryan said that good preparation would be key for Walz, who was coached in part by Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg playing Vance in practice sessions.

\"I think he's much more disciplined than Trump, but he can also get upset,\" Ryan said of Vance.

As tensions grew in the Middle East and Americans suffered in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, Trump found time to marvel over the movie Full Metal Jacket.

On Tuesday, Trump appeared at a manufacturing facility in Waunakee, Wisconsin, a battleground state. While he criticized the federal response to the disaster, and dubiously claimed the world was more peaceful when he was president, Trump spent a disproportionate amount of time essaying Stanley Kubrick's film critiquing the Vietnam War.

It was a deviation from a long, favorite Trump anecdote about a general who the GOP candidate claims told him ISIS could be defeated in four weeks. The veracity of the story is unclear.

Trump eulogized R. Lee Ermey, the U.S. Marines staff sergeant-turned-actor who looms large in the 1987 film's opening scenes.

Trump posited Ermey should have won an Oscar, but didn't because he wasn't part of the establishment, to put it mildly.

How good was that movie?, Trump mused. It doesn't get too much better.

Watch the full rant here.

Trump's lawyers on Tuesday called on a federal judge to order more redactions to be made in a key legal brief filed by prosecutors last week, establishing evidence in the former president's looming Jan. 6 election subversion case.

As Election Day looms, Trump is seeking to keep as much of the case as he can away from public scrutiny.

Kamala Harris will visit Georgia on Wednesday and North Carolina likely later this week, as both stakes take stock of the full impact of Hurricane Helene. Harris staffers told the Associated Press they want to make sure her visit doesnt impede local disaster response efforts.

The vice president had originally planned to traverse Pennsylvania on a bus tour with her running mate Tim Walz on Wednesday. The tour will go on, with Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman (D) sitting in for Harris.
