Former President Donald Trump blasted Vice President Kamala Harris and her economic policy proposals. Trump also addressed attacks by her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz on being called 'weird.'

The Democratic National Convention kicked off today in Chicago. The first night will highlight President Joe Biden's "leadership and legacy," capped off by a

Jackson and Biden were both presidential candidates in the 1988 Democratic presidential primary. Jackson came in third in the primary; Biden dropped out before voting started amid accusations of plagiarism."We must all understand Black history is American history. And in this historic moment, we will write the next chapter together," he said.

"Law enforcement personnel were immediately on-scene and contained the situation," the statement read."At no point was the inner perimeter breached, and there was no threat to any protectees." In her opening remarks, Moore paid tribute to Biden in"passing the torch" to Kamala Harris as the presumptive party nominee.

Police with helmets and batons approached a group of breakaway protesters demonstrating outside the DNC venue in Chicago. Police were closing in on a breakaway group after some protesters took down a barrier and crossed it, putting them a block away from the DNC arena. Kerr, who has endorsed the Harris-Walz ticket, frequently uses his public platform to weigh in on political issues. He has criticized Trump for incendiary comments about women and people of color. He has lobbied for tighter federal gun control measures and advocated for racial justice.

Protesters have climbed up a jersey barrier and continue to jostle the security fence loose. Several dozen police are looking on.Protesters have now entered through the barrier into a street. On the other side of the street is another barrier. Police are on the other side of that barrier. The sentencing hearing is scheduled for Sept. 18 — two days after New York state Judge Juan Merchan is expected to rule on Trump’s motion to toss out his conviction in May in light of the U.S. Supreme Court’sProsecutors said they would “defer to the Court on the appropriate post-trial schedule that allows for adequate time to adjudicate defendant’s CPL § 330.30 motion while also pronouncing sentence ‘without unreasonable delay,’” referring to Trump’s motion to set aside the verdict.

Protesters are now technically within “sight and sound” of the arena — which had been their goal during the arduous rounds of litigation with the city of Chicago to determine the march route. Sanders was speaking at an event billed as Progressive Central 2024 hosted by the Chicago Teachers Union and Progressive Democrats of America.

Leaders are directing the crowd of several thousand in loud call-and-repeat chants of “No justice, no peace,” “Free Palestine,” “From the river to the sea,” and several other slogans. “We don’t need lectures on the economy from a candidate pushing communist price controls," he said."Kamala has no idea what the hell she’s doing. Her father is a Marxist professor, and I believe he taught her well, you know, he’s a Marxist professor. Can you imagine?”He also addressed attacks by Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, on him and JD Vance calling them"weird."

He’s not sure who he is voting for yet but hopes a Labor Party candidate comes forward. In 2020, he voted for the socialist ticket. “This is nothing like ‘68,” he said. “They wouldn’t even let us stay in the park,” he said, referring to Chicago police.In contrast, police have worked to keep Union Park protected and peaceful today, while also declining to have officers wear riot gear proactively.“This is strictly about politics,” he said.

March organizers had said as recently as Sunday that they were expecting as many as 20,000 people to attend today’s protest. in both English and Spanish, since there are few effective tools to crack down on the large volume of false information shared bilingually across encrypted private group chats, according to

Although the rule also demands that the county’s consolidated returns be certified by the superintendent no later than 5 p.m. on the Monday following the election and “immediately transmitted to the Secretary of State,” various Georgia election workers, residents and advocates raised concerns that the reconciliation processes and investigations would prevent counties from reporting results by the time required by Georgia law.ticker, was in mid-April, when the price plummeted to $22.

Chicago’s top cop thanked protest organizers for keeping protests on Sunday peaceful and said their officers were able to respond in the way they were trained. Other police departments, including Milwaukee, Capitol Police and departments from across Illinois, are helping to staff DNC infrastructure so Chicago police are freed up to patrol the city they’ve been extensively trained on, Snelling added.

That includes making sure Harris is elected to replace him. While the vice president has embraced the positive energy around her candidacy to push a campaign message about the future, Biden still sees it as a critical mission to ensure voters understand what’s at risk if Donald Trump returns to the White House.Biden will cast Trump as a threat to democracy and urge all Democrats, and all Americans, to focus on what’s needed to be done to defeat him.

“A scheme to trick people into believing that they have successfully registered to vote would put those individuals at risk of being unable to exercise their constitutional right to vote in future elections,” wrote Brian Lemek, Defend the Vote’s executive director.Musk and America PAC did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The Justice Department also did not immediately respond to a request for comment.that it supports Trump.

Luttig, whose expected vote for Harris would mark his first time voting for a Democrat, told the news outlet that partisanship must be set aside heading into the November election to block Trump, whom he described as “singularly unfit,” from winning the election.

“They’re both basically right-wing parties at this point,” he said, adding — “but in general Democrats are a little better than Republicans.” Thousands have already gathered in Union Park, on the Northwest side of Chicago, for today’s Coalition to March on the DNC protest — the biggest planned protest event this week.

“Kamala Harris’ candidacy, while historic, does not alter the party’s ongoing support for the Israeli genocide,” said Omar Yunes, co-founder of Jisoor, a pro-Palestinian organization. The organizers also used their time to praise Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson for being sympathetic to their movement. "She is bringing the receipts," Klobuchar said in the interview."She has been an international leader as well as a national leader. She has, as I noted, in just 28 days, done everything flawlessly, including picking an excellent running mate from the state of Minnesota, where we just love our vice presidents.

Sens. Chris Coons of Delaware and Raphael Warnock of Georgia; Reps. Jasmine Crockett of Texas and Grace Meng and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York; and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear will all take the stage Monday, Harris campaign spokesperson Quentin Fulks announced. "We get an opportunity tonight to say a thank you to the best president of my lifetime, that I’ve been able to witness, to someone who’s delivered time and time again, someone who made the selfless act of handing that torch to an incredible leader," Walz said.

Asked to clarify his comments, Trump said he had not heard the negative reaction from the public over his remarks. The former president argued that the Congressional Medal of Honor is the “ultimate” but also a “painful” thing to receive. In remarks at a campaign event last week, Trump spoke of the medal he bestowed upon Miriam Adelson, saying it’s the “highest award you can get as a civilian” and is “much better” than the Congressional Medal of Honor because “everyone gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, they’re soldiers. They’re either in very bad shape because they’ve been hit so many times by bullets or they’re dead.

If it continues, that new momentum could have a significant impact in the races for the House, and the DCCC is seeking to capitalize on the enthusiasm behind Harris' candidacy. The ad buys include deep investments in New York, at $8 million, and California, at $5 million, where Democrats are seeking to flip a series of GOP-held competitive districts that could be crucial to determining which party controls the House.

In a press briefing call yesterday afternoon, the Trump campaign gave a preview of this week’s schedule, which includes plans for either Trump or Vance to do media interviews daily.
