Trump and Vance are still stoking fears of Haitian migrants, as Ohio community faces bomb threats

Donald Trump and his running mate on Friday continued to disparage Haitian migrants in an Ohio community, further fueling false claims the Republicans have promoted even as the city saw bomb threats and school evacuations and local officials called for a cooling of the anti-immigrant rhetoric. “We will do large deportations from Springfield, Ohio,” Trump said Friday during a news conference in California, adding that he could possibly hold a campaign event or town hall in the city and claiming the migrants are “destroying the way of life.” Ohio authorities have said there are no credible or detailed reports to support the debunked allegations circulated this week by both Trump and his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, that Haitian immigrants are eating domestic pets and birds i...

Kamala Harris’s pain-free campaign faces first crunch moment

In American politics it’s customary to suggest that most voters don’t start paying attention to the presidential election until after the Labor Day holiday weekend. Well, that occasion - seen here as the unofficial end of summer - has now been and gone. And as a noticeable chill is felt in the air, many more voters will start to take note of politics. That includes the crucial swing voters in a handful of closely contested states who will ultimately decide the race for the White House. Right on cue, as these eyes start to focus on the election, we have a presidential debate that will see Donald Trump and Kamala Harris go head-to-head for the first time. In fact, it will be the first time the two candidates have ever met in person. The high-stakes event in Philadelphia on Tuesday night ...

Former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney endorses Kamala Harris

Former Vice President Dick Cheney said that he will vote for Democrat Kamala Harris over fellow Republican Donald Trump in the November election, warning that the former president "can never be trusted with power again." "In our nation's 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump," Cheney said in a statement. "He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again." "As citizens, we each have a duty to put country above partisanship to defend our Constitution. That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris," he concluded. As vice president, Dick Cheney was an archvillain to Democr...

Harris and Trump squabble over muted mics at upcoming debate

The campaigns of Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump are arguing over whether microphones should be muted except for the candidate whose turn it is to speak, in advance of their high-stakes September 10 debate. While it's common for campaigns to quibble beforehand over debate mechanics, both Harris and Trump are under pressure to deliver a strong performance next month in Philadelphia. The first debate during this campaign led to President Joe Biden's departure from the race. Trump on Sunday night raised the possibility that he might not show up on US network ABC, posting on his Truth Social network that he had watched the network's Sunday show with a "so-called Panel of Trump Haters" and posited, "why would I do the Debate against Kamala Harris on th...

Justice Department seeks to revive Trump documents case

Special counsel Jack Smith is arguing to revive his office's classified documents case against Donald Trump with a vigorous defence of its authority in the first formal filing since Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the criminal case last month. In a brief filed with the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta on Monday, Smith argues that Cannon's decision to end the Trump case because the prosecutors' office lacked constitutional authority was "novel" and "lack[ed] merit." Cannon had ruled the Justice Department didn't have the ability to appoint or fund special counsels like Smith. Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump speaks to reporters during a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Aug. 8, 2024, in Palm Beach, Florida. (CNN) Smith's ...

US President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, convicted of all three felonies in federal gun trial

Hunter Biden, son of US President Joe Biden, could be sentenced just days before the US presidential election after he was convicted of all three felony charges related to the purchase of a revolver in 2018 when, prosecutors argued, he lied on a mandatory gun-purchase form by saying he was not illegally using or addicted to drugs. Jurors on Tuesday (early Wednesday AEST) found Hunter Biden guilty of lying to a federally licensed gun dealer, making a false claim on the application by saying he was not a drug user and illegally having the gun for 11 days. He stared straight ahead and showed little emotion as the verdict was read. After the verdict, he patted his defence attorney on the shoulder. He faces up to 25 years in prison when he is sentenced by Judge Maryellen ...
