President-elect Donald Trump said Tuesday that Elon Musk and former Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy will lead an efficiency group when his second term begins in January. Trump wrote in a post that the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, will "become, potentially, 'The Manhattan Project' of our time." Trump didn't specify where cuts will take place or when the department may be formed. Musk, who also runs defense contractor SpaceX, has reportedly been stationed at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida since election night. Ramaswamy, who challenged Trump in the Republican primary, is co-founder of investment firm Strive Asset Management.

Former President Donald Trump's universal tariff proposals could cause prices to skyrocket on clothing, toys, furniture, household appliances, footwear and travel goods, according to a new report from the National Retail Federation. Trump has said he would impose a 10% or 20% tariff on all imports across the board. In both cases, the NRF found that the impact of Trump's tariffs would be "dramatic" double-digit percentage price spikes in nearly all six retail categories that the trade group examined. The report found that the greatest price spikes could occur for toys: between 36.3% and 55.8%. The report found that the more expensive retail goods would lead to a $46 billion decrease in purchasing power, if Trump imposes both universal tariffs and especially high China rates.

Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday baselessly claimed that Pennsylvania is "cheating" at "large scale levels," escalating his spread of election fraud conspiracies in this all-important swing state. The Republican presidential nominee's Truth Social post in the final week of the race dovetailed with a broader GOP effort to sow doubts about Pennsylvania's election integrity. The efforts are similar to what Trump and his allies claimed before the 2020 presidential election. Trump went on to lose Pennsylvania to President Joe Biden by 81,000 votes. As in 2020, Trump's playbook in Pennsylvania involves exaggerating and mischaracterizing any irregularities around the state's election to bolster claims of widespread fraud.

Retail investors have increasingly focused in on Trump Media & Technology , Rumble and Phunware as stocks that can benefit if the Republican presidential nominee for president prevails. Trump Media & Technology, which owns the alternative social media platform TruthSocial, trades under a ticker — DJT — that's also the initials for the business mogul-turned-politician. On Tuesday alone, retail traders were net buyers of Trump Media to the tune of $14.4 million. Schwarz said there's no reason for Trump Media to even be publicly traded given its business fundamentals and high price-to-sales ratio. "Trump Media has no fundamental value — it's worthless," he said.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk speaks at a rally for former US President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump at Madison Square Garden in New York, October 27, 2024. Former President Donald Trump's top allies and surrogates, like Tesla CEO Elon Musk appear to accept that the Republican presidential nominee's policy plans could trigger a short-term economic thunderstorm. But they contend it will be worth the sunnier long-term outlook. "Correct: If I raise the tariff on just this particular idiosyncratic product, yes, right, it will be more expensive," Lutnick said in a Thursday interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box," responding to a question about whether universal tariffs would effectively become a short-term sales tax. Trump's running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, has also nodded to the potential consumer pain of Trump's vision for across-the-board tariffs, though he hedged that it would be worth the possible benefits.

"We find President Trump's campaign proposals would dramatically worsen Social Security's finances," the CRFB budget group said in a blog post. Social Security trust funds are set to be exhausted by Fiscal Year 2034, according to the Congressional Budget Office. "If you cut income taxes and cut payroll taxes, then you're going to have an impact on Social Security," Freese said. "I don't believe the Trump campaign is looking to undermine Social Security," said Andrew Biggs, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and former principal deputy commissioner of the Social Security Administration. "And likewise, Social Security is so big, any changes to Social Security will affect other things."

Trump's proposals would dramatically worsen Social Security's finances, a nonpartisan budget group is warning. The group predicts Trump's agenda would push up Social Security insolvency by 3 years. Harris' proposals would have little impact on Social Security's insolvency timeline, the group says. AdvertisementThe Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees estimated that the fund would run out a year later, in 2035. President Trump delivered on his promise to protect Social Security in his first term, and President Trump will continue to strongly protect Social Security in his second term," Leavitt said in the statement.

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday railed against fellow billionaire Mark Cuban, who has been vigorously campaigning for his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. "Mark Cuban is a Loser," Trump wrote in a Saturday Truth Social post. Trump's insults come several days after Cuban mocked the Republican presidential nominee's tariff proposals at a Harris campaign rally. This election cycle, Cuban has become a regular Harris campaign surrogate as the vice president works to frame herself as a pro-growth capitalist. Meanwhile, Trump has enlisted Elon Musk as his own mega-billionaire campaign surrogate, fueling another rivalry with Cuban.

Donald Trump on Friday called the judge presiding over his criminal election interference case in Washington, D.C., "the most evil person" for ordering the release of nearly 1,900 pages of previously sealed documents filed by prosecutors. Trump suggested U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan made the files public to harm the Republican presidential nominee's chances in November's election. "Now, it's a terrible thing, what's happening and the judge is, this judge is the most evil person," Trump said on Dan Bongino's podcast. "They're going to release something else, and always before the election," Trump said. Smith has charged Trump with crimes related to his attempts to undo his loss in the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.

"There's a belief that movable voters move late," said one Harris campaign official, who described the thinking behind her approach on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak for her. Trump often derides nonpartisan media as "fake news" and an "enemy of the public," but he hasn't completely abandoned those platforms. Since she took over as the Democratic candidate for President Joe Biden, Harris' media strategy has evolved. A second Harris campaign official said her team believes it is now in a very small window where undecided voters are paying attention, and she can actually break through. Specifically, this official said Harris’ appearance on Fox News is indicative of the fact that she needs white working-class women.

Musk, the world's richest man, has given nearly $75 million to America PAC, the super political action committee he created earlier this year largely to back Trump, new Federal Election Commission filings reveal. Nearly $72 million of that money has already been spent, the disclosure report shows. The PAC, which was formed in late May, reports having spent a total of $102 million on the presidential race so far, FEC filings show. Unlike most super PACs, however, America PAC is not spending its money to reserve expensive television air time to run ads. Instead, the group's filings show that it is paying canvassers and funding direct mail, texts and phone banking.

Adam Gray | Afp | Getty ImagesA political action committee supporting former President Donald Trump has raised about $7.5 million in cryptocurrencies. The PAC said the latest filing covered donations in the period of July 1 through Sept. 30, but numbers included cumulative contributions. At least 18 donors gave more than $5.5 million in bitcoin to Trump 47, the filing shows. Trump said in his keynote that his campaign had raised $25 million from the crypto industry, though he didn't specify the split between digital tokens and dollar donations. Among the new donors is Chase Herro, one of the co-founders of the Trump family's new crypto project World Liberty Financial.

More than 45 million DJT shares were exchanged Tuesday, more than tripling its 30-day average volume. Stock Chart Icon Stock chart icon Trump Media (DJT) Stock PriceThe rally has accelerated since Saturday, when the company's majority owner, Donald Trump, held a presidential campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania, at the same site where he was nearly assassinated at a rally on July 13. Musk, the mega-billionaire who owns the social media site X, told the audience that Trump "must win to preserve democracy in America." But the stock price surge also comes despite news about Trump Media that might ordinarily raise concerns about a company's well-being. Neither Trump Media nor Northwall said why he quit, and the company has not announced a successor.

Democratic presidential nominee and U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris walks to board Air Force Two as she departs for New York, at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, U.S., October 7, 2024. Vice President Kamala Harris said she considers Iran to be America's "greatest adversary," in a new interview on the CBS show "60 Minutes Overtime." The Democratic presidential nominee's choice of Iran, rather than Russia or China, underscores how much the Mideast War has shifted U.S. foreign policy priorities. Speaking with "60 Minutes" correspondent Bill Whitaker, Harris was asked which nation she considers "to be our greatest adversary." "I think there's an obvious one in mind, which is Iran," Harris replied.

Vice President Kamala Harris sits for an interview with Alex Cooper on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast. Vice President Kamala Harris was all business in an interview on the sex-positive "Call Her Daddy" podcast that aired Sunday. Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, spent the bulk of the roughly 40-minute conversation litigating her case against Donald Trump, blasting the Republican nominee's track record on abortion and women's rights. "There are now 20 states with Trump abortion bans," Harris told "Call her Daddy" host Alex Cooper. The "Call Her Daddy" podcast is largely popular with young women, a voter base Harris already polls strongly with.

What’s more surprising, however, is that one House Democratic just introduced a bill to codify Trump’s 10% across-the-board tariffs, revealing how the long-dormant trade policy splits both parties. But they largely fell out of favor during the late 20th century as the U.S. led a global free trade revolution. Despite Harris and other attacks on Trump's tariffs, the Biden-Harris administration decided to keep some of the tariffs Trump imposed during his first term on Chinese steel and aluminum and even increase the fees on strategic sectors like electric vehicles and semiconductors. Still, Biden and Harris have consistently criticized across-the-board tariffs as “indiscriminate” instruments that risk “undermining our alliances,” arguing targeted sanctions do not carry the inflationary risks of wider spread one. Most say the data is clear that freer trade leads to greater economic growth and they say Trump's across-the-board tariffs would raise inflation and could cost jobs.

The report also highlights the types of technological issues that are common within massive federal bureaucracies like the Secret Service. Communications were siloed, and the Secret Service "did not ensure it could share information with local law enforcement partners in real time," the report says. The Secret Service released its own internal report last week. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., who chairs the investigations subcommittee, said the Secret Service engaged in an “Abbott and Costello kind of 'Who’s on First?' He argued Tuesday that the Secret Service was "stonewalling" the congressional investigation.

The U.S. Secret Service said Friday it was to blame for the near-assassination of former President Donald Trump at a July campaign rally, pointing to "complacency" by some of its agents and communication gaps with local police. "As I've said, this was a failure on the part of the United States Secret Service," said Ronald Rowe, the agency's acting director, at a press conference. The Secret Service was chiefly responsible for crafting the security plan at the presidential campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania, where assassin Thomas Crooks was able to open fire at Trump before being shot dead. Line-of-sight issues at the Republican nominee's rally site were known about but not effectively addressed in advance, Rowe went on. Rowe took over the Secret Service after former Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned from the agency on July 23, just 10 days after the assassination attempt.
