WASHINGTON (AP) — Italo Medelius was leading a volunteer drive to put Cornel West on North Carolina’s presidential ballot last spring when he received an unexpected call from a man named Paul who said he wanted to help. Though Medelius, co-chairman of West’s “Justice for All Party,” welcomed the assistance, the offer would complicate his life, provoking threats and drawing him into a state election board investigation of the motivations, backgrounds and suspect tactics of his new allies. His is not an isolated case. Across the country, a network of Republican political operatives, lawyers and their allies is trying to…

I last visited Arlington National Cemetery on Aug. 23, 2022, for the interment of my grandfather. Eighty years earlier, he’d gotten his first taste of combat as a line officer at the Battle of Midway. We were there to bury him in Section 31, alongside my grandmother. The sun was shining, and a bagpiper played “Going Home.” There were no thumbs up from anyone.When I read the accounts of Donald Trump’s outrageous photo-op at Arlington, and his campaign staff’s altercation with a cemetery employee, I thought of my grandparents and the anger they’d have for a political candidate trampling on…

And she added: “I was concerned.”As interviewer Norah O’Donnell noted, Jackson’s remarks – first circulated by the network in a preview –…
Two words sum up the national and battleground state polls released ahead of Labor Day weekend, with fewer than 10 weeks to go until Election Day: changed and close.Changed, because most of the surveys — conducted after President Joe Biden’s exit from the 2024 race, after the Democratic convention, and after independent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed former President Donald Trump — show Vice President Kamala Harris with narrow leads nationally and in key battlegrounds. That’s compared with polling that mostly showed Trump with a narrow edge before Biden’s departure. And close, because almost all of Harris’ leads are within the polls’…
