CNN — Donald Trump limbered up for his debate with Kamala Harris by showing the extremism that risks playing into the vice president’s claim that he’s an “unserious man” who is an “extremely serious” threat if he’s returned to the White House. Trump warned he will jail election officials he considers cheats; is complaining Pennsylvania’s voting is a fraud; vowed to pardon January 6 rioters; railed against women who accused him of sexual misconduct; and spent hours in recent days on sometimes incoherent rants that raised questions about his state of mind. But new polling ahead of Tuesday’s showdown in…

The release — after years of investigation by the Republicans on the House Foreign Affairs Committee — of the report by Republican Chairman Rep Michael McCaul and a minority memorandum by Democratic Ranking Member Rep. Gregory Meeks underscore how partisan the debate over the frenzied US exit from Afghanistan has become. The reports also thrust…
A Las Vegas Republican running for office was attacked by a knife-wielding mugger in broad daylight while putting up his own campaign signs. Stanley Vaughan, 67, said he was lost in thought putting up signs along Pecos Road for his bid at a State Assembly seat on Aug. 29 when a man approached him and demanded his wallet, local KVVU reports. “I turned around, caught me by surprise — then he started to lunge at me,” the US Army veteran said. “I instinctively kicked him, and he ran away.

CNN — Former President Donald Trump on Saturday threatened prosecution and “long term prison sentences” for election officials and political operatives, who he suggested could cheat in the 2024 election, if he again wins the presidency in November.

Nikki Haley broke with former President Trump’s stance regarding IVF treatment, but still said she was “on standby” to campaign for the Republican nominee. Haley, who was the last Republican presidential candidate to drop from the GOP race before Trump became the nominee, said during an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday that she had spoken with Trump in June and that “he’s aware that I’m ready if he ever needs me” to campaign for him.
