Kamala Harris hammered Donald Trump’s labor record during a rally in Flint, Michigan, on Friday, trying to keep up the momentum after scoring high-profile endorsements from Liz Cheney and Bruce Springsteen.

“Donald Trump is no friend of labor,” the vice president told the crowd, arguing Trump didn’t do enough to help the auto industry or support United Auto Workers who went on strike, like Joe Biden did.

Donald Trump, for his part, told a crowd in Fayetteville, North Carolina, on Friday he supported creating a taskforce to monitor for “woke” generals and diversity training within the military.

Biden, meanwhile, said on Friday he did not know if November’s election would be “peaceful” given Trump’s “dangerous” rhetoric, in a surprise appearance in the White House briefing room.

Biden was also asked if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was delaying a diplomatic agreement regarding the Gaza conflict to influence the election. He said that no administration has helped Israel more than he has and Netanyahu should remember that.

Trump will be joined by tech billionaire Elon Musk at his Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of his attempted assassination on July 13.

Trump campaign encourages early voting again, even though it also hates that

The Trump campaign is once again encouraging its supporters to vote early, despite Donald Trump’s regular attacks on mail-in voting.

This time, it was RNC co-chair Lara Trump who closed today’s North Carolina rally with a call for early votes.

So what does Trump actually think about early voting? Well, it depends on the day.

Trump falsely claims he gave military the biggest pay raise

Trump and Anna Paulina Luna slam Harris on Hurricane Helene response

Donald Trump and Representative Anna Paulina Luna are both tearing into the Biden-Harris administration’s response to Hurricane Helene.

Trump claimed the response was the worst disaster response since Hurricane Katrina in New , while Representative Luna baselessly accused federal officials of cutting off aid because conservative communities were among those that got hit by the storm.

In fact, Asheville, one of the cities facing the most storm destruction, is highly Democratic, and sits in a county that went for Joe Biden in 2020.

The 165-page dossier, which was unsealed by a federal judge in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, alleges that Trump intentionally lied to voters, election officials, and even his vice president in a “desperate” effort to cling to power.

Did Kamala Harris really ‘lose’ thousands of migrant kids?

Trump just brought up the now-familiar Republican claim that Kamala Harris lost hundreds of thousands of migrant kids on her watch.

As usual for the Trump campaign, the comment is related to a kernel of actual fact and a whole lot exagerration.

“300,000 children are missing during the Biden reign,” Trump said.

“Many of them are dead. Many of them are in sex slavery. Many of them are in slavery, period,” Trump continued.

Here’s the actual news that spawned this GOP smear, an inspector general report that found that hundreds of thousands of migrant children hadn’t appeared in removal proceedings because they hadn’t been immediately served with notices to appear.

Poll watchers declared the event essentially a tie. According to a CBS News poll, 42 percent of debate watchers said Vance won the debate, while 41 percent thought Walz emerged as the winner.

During a recent podcast recording, Vance addressed a snapshot of him from the event that’s now gone viral. In one moment, he’s seen looking into the TV cameras in what social media has called a Jim Halpert from The Office look.
