‘As I was saying’: Trump references assassination attempt on return to Butler

Donald Trump is holding a rally in Juneau, Wisconsin on Sunday afternoon, where he demanded that 60 Minutes give him an “apology.”

Trump backed out of the interview on Tuesday, just ahead of the vice presidential debate on CBS, the same network that airs 60 Minutes.

Earlier this week, CBS said that Trump committed to the interview while the Trump campaign told CNN that the interview was never “locked in” and that the network had “insisted on cutting out of the interview to do fact-checking.”

Meanwhile, Kamala Harris will go on a media blitz this week as she sits down for interviews with 60 Minutes,The View, late-night host Stephen Colbert and radio host Howard Stern with just 30 days left until Election Day.

In a preview for her 60 Minutes interview, Harris was pressed about the US’s relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu nearly one year after Hamas attacks on October 7 — questions she largely dodged.

Trump’s Wisconsin rally comes just one day after he held a lie-filled event at the venue in Butler, Pennsylvania where he survived an assassination attempt just three months ago. At Saturday’s rally, he suggested that his political opponents “maybe tried to kill me.”

Kamala Harris hits back at ‘childless’ attacks on Call Her Daddy podcast: ‘This is not the 1950s anymore’

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders said last month that “my kids keep me humble” and that “unfortunately, Kamala Harris doesn’t have anything keeping her humble.”

Harris responded to the Republican governor’s statement on the latest episode of Call Her Daddy, a mega-popular podcast that Spotify calls the “most-listened-to podcast by women.”

“I feel sorry for [her],” Harris told podcast host Alex Cooper.

“I don’t think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who, one, are not aspiring to be humble, two, a whole lot of women out here who have a lot of love in their life, family in their life, and children in their life,” she added. ”And I think it’s really important for women to lift each other up.”

VP shares why she became a prosecutor on ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast

Kamala Harris opened up about why she became a prosecutor on the mega-popular Call Her Daddy podcast.

“When I was in high school, my best friend, her name is Wanda, I learned was being sexually assaulted by her stepfather. And you know, I knew something was going on because she didn’t want to go home, she just seemed sad. And so she told me, and I immediately said, you have to come and stay with us,” Harris said.

“It upset me so, that someone, where they should feel safe and protected, were being so horribly abused and violated, right? And anyway, I decided at a young age I wanted to do the work of protecting vulnerable people,” the vice president continued.

“I mean, look, I was raised, I’m the eldest of two daughters, I was raised with my mother saying, since practically the day my sister was born, you know, look out for your sister, so maybe it started when I was two, but Wanda and her experience really convinced me and made me realize how this can happen and what we need to do to stand against it,” she added.

“A lot of my career was as a prosecutor. And so it was about really wanting to protect the most vulnerable and where they did not have the power, and it wasn’t of their own choosing, but because they were the subject of abuse, because they were the subject of an imbalance of power, right? And so a lot of the work that I’ve done has been about wanting to restore, to the extent I could play a role in that, their right to have justice, to have a voice.”

Here’s more about her appearance on the hit podcast.

DeSantis administration threatens local TV station for airing abortion rights campaign ads

Ron DeSantis’s administration has appeared to threaten a local TV station with legal action for airing an abortion rights campaign ad.

The features a woman named Caroline who needed to have an abortion and cancer treatments after a brain tumor diagnosis in 2022. She praises Amendment 4, which would enshrine abortion access in the state that currently has a six-week ban on the procedure.

An October 3 letter from the Florida Department of Health sent to WFLA TV’s vice president Mark Higgins claiming the ad is illegal under section 386.01 of Florida law that allows the state to remove any “nuisance” that “threatens or impairs” people’s health.

Recap: Harris visited North Carolina after Hurricane Helene ravaged the state

Vice President Kamala Harris visited the state on Saturday and visited Asheville — a city hit by substantial flooding during the storm.

“We’re here for the long haul,” she told a volunteer leader.

The Democratic nominee’s visit juxtaposes Trump’s false claims that the embattled region hasn’t seen “anybody from the federal government yet.”

The internet is in hysterics over Elon Musk’s jump

Elon Musk spoke at Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last night.

But the internet — namely users on his own social media platform — are focused less on his speech and more on his vertical.

An animated Musk leaped on the Butler stage, exposing his belly button.

Some users have even gone so far as to call the Space X owner as “the greatest jumper of all time.”

ICYMI: ‘Dark MAGA’ Elon Musk rallies onstage with Trump

Elon Musk, the CEO of X and Tesla, spoke during Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday, and made the brazenly false claim that Democrats were going to eliminate elections in the US.

Trump — returning to the site where he was nearly assassinated in July— introduced Musk as the man who “saved free speech“ and as a “rocket builder,” claiming his company Space X was the only reason that American astronauts can return to space.

The world’s wealthiest man took the stage in a black “Make America Great Again” hat and told the crowd he was “dark MAGA” — seemingly referencing the fringe far-right meme — before taking a swipe at President Joe Biden.

North Carolina’s scandal-ridden Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson is losing by double digits, poll shows

North Carolina Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson is trailing his opponent by 17 points in the state’s gubernatorial race, according to a new poll.

Robinson faces an uphill battle as Josh Stein, North Carolina Attorney General, has 51 percent support of voters compared to the Republican’s 34 percent, the High Point University poll revealed.

Robinson, who has been rocked by public scandal in recent weeks, is also trailing Stein by double digits in two other polls released last week. The Washington Post poll puts Stein at 54 percent to Robinson’s 38 percent, while a poll from East Carolina University has the Democratic at 50 percent compared to Robinson at 33 percent.

Trump returned to Butler three months after an attempt on his life. But since then, has he changed?

On Saturday, Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania — the site of his first assassination attempt.

The political landscape has totally shifted since the July 13 attack.

The ear bandage has come off, he has been named the Republican nominee, and he faces a new formidable rival, yet in the three months since the former president has sustained not one but two attempts on his life, shockingly, nothing about him seems to have fundamentally changed.
