Billionaire Elon Musk promised on Saturday to give away $1 million each day until November's election to someone who signs his online petition supporting the U.S. Constitution. And he wasted no time, awarding a $1 million check to an attendee of his event in Pennsylvania aimed at rallying supporters behind Republican Donald Trump. Musk started America PAC, a political action organization he founded in support of Trump's presidential campaign. The petition Musk is asking people to sign reads: "The First and Second Amendments guarantee freedom of speech and the right to bear arms. Trump in turn has said if elected he would appoint Musk to head a government efficiency commission.

Speaking at an America PAC event in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Musk said, "I have a surprise for you," adding that the prize money is available "every day from now until the election." "How Pennsylvania goes I think is how the election goes," Musk said. The deadline to sign the petition is Monday night, which is the day Pennsylvania's voter registration closes. "We get crazy things," Musk said, "like SpaceX got fined $140,000 for dumping potable drinking water on the ground at Starbase." Musk only mentioned Trump sparingly throughout the evening, and didn't discuss his policies or record as president in any detail.

Musk has also seeded at least $75 million into a pro-Trump super PAC.

Recently, Musk's company seized the @America handle to boost his super PAC. AdvertisementNone of the other recent wealthiest men have come close to Musk's super PAC spending. Bezos made the biggest splash in 2018 when they donated $10 million to With Honor, a super PAC that supported veteran candidates.

CNN —Vice President Kamala Harris turns 60 on Sunday – and, her campaign wants voters to know, that makes her 18 years younger than Donald Trump. Harris’ campaign is increasingly questioning the former president’s mental and physical fitness in the final weeks of the 2024 presidential race. “He’s becoming increasingly unstable and unhinged, and it requires that response,” Harris told reporters Saturday in Detroit. Top Harris allies have also leaned into the strategy of casting Trump as old and mentally unfit in recent days. “He’s talking about Hannibal Lecter, he’s talking about this, he’s talking about that.”Trump, at times, seems to tie migrants who seek asylum in the United States to the character of Lecter being detained at an insane asylum.

CNN —Donald Trump is pulling one of the most iconic American companies – McDonald’s – into the political arena in the final days of his third White House bid. “I’m going to McDonald’s to work the french fry,” Trump told supporters Saturday at a rally in the Pittsburgh area. A campaign official told CNN that Harris worked at a McDonald’s in Alameda, California, during the summer of 1983 when she was still a student at Howard University in Washington. It’s unclear why Trump has latched on to Harris’ McDonald’s employment or why a visit there was warranted during one of his few remaining weekends before Election Day. “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did,” Trump Jr. said.

His alarming behavior may look to some like a candidacy melting down when the pressure is at its most extreme. With polls deadlocked, Trump’s behavior hasn’t yet disqualified him. And Trump’s voters still regard him as a vessel for their frustration with a political and economic system they believe has poorly served them. Trump’s behavior underscores stakes of deadlocked electionIt will be up to voters to decide how to process Trump’s recent conduct. The Harris campaign, which began as an attempt to spread joy, is now fully exploiting Trump’s rhetorical rampages.

TUCSON, Ariz. — Former President Barack Obama on Friday contrasted former President Donald Trump’s character to that of the late Sen. John McCain during a packed rally at the University of Arizona. “Being here in Tucson, I’m thinking about my friend, John McCain,” said Obama, speaking to several thousand Arizonans. “It required one more vote to keep it intact, and that vote was the late, great John McCain,” Harris said in the Phoenix suburb. “A great American, a war hero: John McCain. “Thanks to John McCain, he didn’t do it,” he added to thunderous applause.

Tech billionaire Elon Musk said Friday that all voting should be “in person,” contradicting his own history of voting by mail and the efforts of his pro-Trump super PAC to get others to vote by mail, too. His super PAC, America PAC, is also promoting mail-in and absentee ballots this year. In mailers and on a website that links to absentee ballot request forms, the super PAC calls absentee voting a secure way for people to support Trump in the Nov. 5 election. Musk has given the super PAC nearly $75 million. But Musk’s opposition to mail-in and absentee voting is longstanding, and he has repeatedly declined to resolve his stated opposition with his own practice.

As more retirees start to claim Social Security, there are not enough workers contributing to the program to make up for that increase in benefit payments. But the trust fund Social Security relies on to pay retirement benefits is projected to be depleted in 2033. watch nowBoth presidential candidates — former president Trump and Vice President Harris — have vowed to protect Social Security benefits. "Seniors should not pay tax on Social Security," Trump wrote on July 31 in all capital letters on social media platform Truth Social. Ending taxes on Social Security benefits would move the insolvency date of Social Security's trust fund closer by over one year, according to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

Pro-Trump group funded by Musk struggles with outreach targets
  + stars: | 2024-10-19 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
Four people involved in the group's outreach told Reuters that managers warned canvassers they are missing targets and needed to raise the number of would-be voters they contact. Another person briefed on the matter said America PAC was struggling to find sufficient people to conduct audits in other states. Musk, ranked by Forbes as the world's richest person, so far has supplied at least $75 million to America PAC, according to federal disclosures, making the group a crucial part of Trump's bid to regain the White House. In Nevada, it isn't clear whether Young's audit has concluded, reached any findings or prompted any change in America PAC's outreach. America PAC recently updated its website to prominently display advertisements seeking canvassers.

People hold sings during a strike rally for the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) at the Seattle Union Hall in Seattle, Washington, on October 15, 2024. Boeing and its machinists' union have reached a new contract proposal, the union said Saturday, outlining a deal that could end a more than month-long strike that has hobbled the manufacturers' aircraft production. The strike began Sept. 13 after more than 30,000 machinists overwhelmingly rejected a tentative agreement that included 25% wage increases over four years. Boeing later made a sweetened offer but the union blasted it saying it was not negotiated. "We look forward to our employees voting on the negotiated proposal," Boeing said in a statement.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday continued to steer clear of criticizing President Joe Biden, arguing that vice presidents not denigrating the commander-in-chief is an American tradition. "To be very candid with you, even including Mike Pence, vice presidents are not critical of their presidents. Harris dismissed her critics, including Trump, claiming that "joy" has disappeared from her campaign. NBC News has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment. Both Harris and Trump have been doing targeted media interviews in the final weeks of the campaign.

Billionaire Elon Musk has upped his financial offer for registered swing state voters to sign a conservative-leaning petition. On Thursday, Musk wrote on X that his pro-Trump super PAC would give $100 to signees and those who refer them.

For anyone who refers a registered swing state voter to sign it, Musk promised to mail a check.

Her decision to appear on The Shade Room and other less traditional platforms has left many scratching their heads. But it’s a strategy to reach young, Black voters who are increasingly turning to social media for news. Fifty-two percent of polled adults under 30 said they have a lot or some trust in information that comes from social media. That is most likely what led Harris to The Shade Room, which has more than 29 million followers on Instagram and is known for saucy celebrity gossip and salacious headlines. The Shade Room did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Vice President Kamala Harris slammed former President Donald Trump on Thursday night, chiding him for calling himself “the father of IVF.”“He refuses continuously to acknowledge the harm he has caused. The crowd heckled and howled at each of the segments, which ended with a Fox News town hall in which Trump took questions from women. "It does get more unbelievable,” one could be heard saying. She did not want to give her name, she said, because she lives in a “divided family” — her husband supports Trump. In the final stretch of the race, survey after survey has shown Harris and Trump neck and neck.

At a town hall hosted at a high school outside Philadelphia, Musk referred to the false conspiracy theory that Dominion Voting Systems was part of a plot to rig U.S. elections in recent years. There’s always this question of, say, the Dominion voting machines. Fact: Hand counts and audits of such paper ballots have repeatedly proven that Dominion machines produce accurate results. Studies and investigations have found that there’s no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the U.S. When voter fraud has occurred, prosecutors have successfully brought cases against perpetrators including in a highly publicized fraud scheme in North Carolina.

And now the man calls himself the father of IVF,” Harris said on Thursday, recalling Trump’s remark at an all-women’s town hall. Exit polls in 2020 showed Biden — who’d become the nation’s second Catholic president — finishing with a 5-point lead over Trump with Catholic voters. After wishing Adams “good luck,” Trump repeated the familiar canard that the Justice Department indicted Adams over the mayor’s criticism of the Biden administration’s border policy. “You’re going to win, I think you’re going to win, I know you’re going to win, so good luck,” Trump told Adams.

The legal status of immigrants in Springfield: Trump falsely claimed, “They just dropped 30,000 illegal aliens in Springfield, Ohio.”This is false in more than one way. And while there is no official tally of the number of immigrants in Springfield, Trump’s “30,000” figure exceeds local estimates. More about immigrants in Springfield: Trump claimed that immigrants in Springfield are on “probation,” and he added, “Probation is for prisoners.” This is false in two ways. The word “caravan”: Talking about migrant caravans, Trump repeated his false claim that he invented the term: “The caravan.

"Since 2014, 12 states have passed minimum wage increases through ballot measures," Martinez Hickey told CNBC. Meanwhile, voters in Arizona will decide on a ballot measure that would lower the minimum wage for tipped workers. Here's what's at stake for workers who make the minimum wage, and the employers who pay them, in next month's election. 1 would raise the minimum wage to $13 in 2025, and to $14 in 2026. Question 5 in Massachusetts would slowly phase out its tipped minimum wage of $6.75 per hour, until it eventually matches the state's standard minimum wage by 2029.

I spoke to voters and a mayor in Northampton, one of two bellwether counties in Pennsylvania. The mayor told me that politics are local — and the election will likely come down to grocery bills. Both Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump were in Pennsylvania on the same Monday, courting voters at a rally and town hall respectively. There was 46-year-old Michelle Kerns, who said she doesn't think Harris gets enough credit for easing inflation. I heard many iterations of "I'm not following the election" or "I'm sick of talking about it" on Monday afternoon.

She has yet to appear with Trump on the campaign trail. Nikki is helping us already.”However, Trump and his campaign have recently sought out female voters, including sitting for a Fox News town hall with all female voters in Georgia earlier in the week. Senior advisers also hoped that the endorsement from Robert Kennedy Jr., who has been stumping for Trump on the campaign trail, could help with the female demographic – particularly conservative-leaning mothers.

The documents were released a day after Judge Tanya Chutkan rejected a bid by Trump to pause the release. Others include a myriad of claims of voter fraud during the 2020 election. The final volume includes memos from lawyer John Eastman with a plan for Pence to reject the congressional certification of the 2020 election.

Four teams have canceled games against San Jose State: Boise State, Southern Utah, Utah State and Wyoming, with none of the schools explicitly saying why they were forfeiting. You just don’t let it happen.”After Trump’s comment, San Diego State issued a statement that said “it has been incorrectly reported that an San Diego State University student-athlete was hit in the face with a volleyball during match play with San Jose State University. “We’re a volleyball team that wants to compete and get better,” he said after Thursday night’s loss in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Nevada released a statement acknowledging that “a majority of the Wolf Pack women’s volleyball team” had decided to forfeit against San Jose State.
