Responding to Hinchcliffe’s joke, the president said Puerto Ricans are “good, decent, honorable people.”He added, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done.”The White House later clarified his comments, saying he was speaking about the rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally rather than Trump supporters. They’re scum, they’re scum, and they want to take down our country. They are absolute garbage.”Burgum told moderator Kristen Welker that voters won’t be swayed by comments like that. “The parsing of comments from the last seven days is not what’s going to determine the election,” he said.

Vice President Kamala Harris tore into Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Saturday for his comment that Republicans might seek to repeal the CHIPS and Science Act if they take control of Congress in the upcoming election. Now to get rid of the CHIPS Act,” Harris added. When asked whether Republicans will seek to repeal the CHIPS Act if they win the election, Johnson replied, “I expect that we probably will,” according to a video posted by a local journalist. “The CHIPS Act is hugely impactful here,” Williams said, vowing to “remind” Johnson “night and day” about the importance of the law. His only mistake was being honest.”The CHIPS Act passed Congress on a bipartisan basis and was signed into law by President Joe Biden in 2022.

The handful of Americans who have won $1 million checks from tech billionaire Elon Musk’s super PAC have a few things in common. He said he didn’t know the process the super PAC used to pick his name and didn’t ask. He said he believes Democrats are not ideologically predisposed to sign Musk’s petition in support of the First and Second Amendments. NBC News asked the super PAC to share the process Oct. 22 and did not receive a response. All 14 winners have either recorded videos for Musk’s super PAC, been photographed for the super PAC or both.

"He can do anything he wants," Trump said. The CDC has routinely said that the worst side effects from Covid vaccines are not worse than the potential effects of the Covid virus. And, Covid vaccines do not increase the risk of death, while the Covid virus does. In August, he suspended his own independent presidential campaign and endorsed Trump. “The only thing President Trump and his campaign team are focused on is winning on November 5th," Trump campaign senior adviser Jason Miller said in a statement Friday.

“I don’t think there’s inconsistency between loyalty to the Constitution and support for Donald Trump,” Vance added. If he was what John Kelly said he was, then why did Donald Trump deliver peace and prosperity?” Vance asked. He then accused Trump’s opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, of using the Justice Department to target political foes. There is no evidence that the Justice Department targets the political opponents of Harris or President Joe Biden.

Sen. JD Vance on Saturday defended former president Donald Trump's comments calling Democratic leaders "the enemy from within," saying that inflation, slowing military recruitment and the migrant crisis are a "way bigger threat than any foreign threat." These problems, the Ohio Republican told NBC News' "Meet the Press," are "caused by broken leadership." Specifically, Vance mentioned former Speaker Nancy Pelosi as a catalyst for American decline. "Under Nancy Pelosi’s long life in public leadership, the United States has gone from the preeminent industrial power of the world to second, next to China," Vance told moderator Kristen Welker. We can handle foreign conflicts.”Vance's comments follow weeks of Trump asserting that Democrats, as the "enemy from within," are more dangerous to the U.S.' future than foreign adversaries.

The mayor of Waukesha, the seat of a reliably Republican county outside Milwaukee, Wisconsin, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president on Wednesday — the first time the formerly Republican city leader is supporting a Democrat for commander in chief, the campaign said. Wisconsin is a key battleground state that could be a critical piece of Harris or Trump's path to victory on election night. In 2000, just 32% of voters in Waukesha County voted for Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore, while in 2020 39% of voters there supported President Joe Biden. On Thursday, GOP former Michigan Rep. Fred Upton also endorsed Harris, saying in a statement that he has never voted for a Democrat for president "until now." Other former GOP members of Congress that have endorsed Harris include Liz Cheney, R-Wyo and Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. Harris also touts endorsements from GOP former Sen. Jeff Flake, former Vice President Dick Cheney, more than a hundred Republican former national security officials, former Georgia Lt. Gov.

Josh Shapiro on Sunday said that tech mogul Elon Musk's plan to give money to registered voters in Pennsylvania is "deeply concerning" and "it's something that law enforcement could take a look at" during an interview on NBC News' "Meet the Press." Elon Musk in Pennsylvania announced that he would give away $1 million per day to a registered voter until Election Day. Chesnot / Getty Images fileQuestions about the legality of these cash payments abounded on Saturday night, as elections law experts pointed to various provisions in federal law that prohibited making cash payments to voters. Musk and a representative for America PAC did not immediately respond to requests for comment on this story. "It seems like if this law is going to be enforced, it needs to be deterred," Hasen said.

South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham on Sunday slammed members of his own party who are supporting Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential bid, asking them, “What the hell are you doing?”“You’re supporting the most radical nominee in the history of American politics,” Graham said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press.”Several high-profile Republicans have endorsed Harris in recent weeks, including former GOP Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger and several former members of the Trump administration. “The danger to this country is the policies of Biden and Harris,” Graham added. “When Vice President Harris is asked, ‘What would you do different?’ she says, ‘Nothing comes to mind,’” he said. Graham appeared to be referring to comments Harris originally made on “The View” earlier this month, for which she has been criticized by Republicans. Asked by the hosts of that show whether she would have done anything differently than Biden, Harris simply said that “there is not a thing that comes to mind.”

Melania Trump will accompany former President Donald Trump to the Al Smith dinner in New York City on Thursday, two sources familiar with her plans told NBC News. In late September, a Kamala Harris campaign aide confirmed that the vice president would not be attending the dinner, saying that she would instead be campaigning in key battleground states. Among those Democrats was Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., who made appeals to Harris’ campaign about modifying her schedule. “He lets me be who I am, and he lets me believe what I believe. The mood at the Al Smith dinner is traditionally jovial and gives candidates a chance to joke about their time on the campaign trail.

President Joe Biden announced while surveying storm-damaged Florida on Sunday that over $600 million will flow to states affected by hurricanes Helene and Milton, which ravaged Georgia and North Carolina as well. Ahead of the storm, the Biden administration sought to combat misinformation about the emergency funds flowing to the state. No money is being diverted from disaster response needs. FEMA’s disaster response efforts and individual assistance is funded through the Disaster Relief Fund, which is a dedicated fund for disaster efforts. Disaster Relief Fund money has not been diverted to other, non-disaster related efforts.”FEMA uses Disaster Relief Fund money solely for that purpose.

Former President Donald Trump called Democrats and others who have opposed or investigated him "the enemy from within" in an interview that aired Sunday, describing them as more dangerous than major foreign adversaries of the United States, including Russia and China. "I always say, we have two enemies," Trump said, adding, "We have the outside enemy, and then we have the enemy from within, and the enemy from within, in my opinion, is more dangerous than China, Russia and all these countries." Trump added that a "smart president" could handle outside adversaries "pretty easily," but "the thing that's tougher to handle are these lunatics that we have inside, like Adam Schiff." House Republicans have joined Trump in his ire against Schiff, who is leading in the California Senate race against former baseball player Steve Garvey, a Republican. Mueller's report found no explicitly coordinated effort between Trump's campaign and Russia to influence the election.

“Donald Trump believes he will be immune for anything he does once he’s in office,” Cheney, a fierce Trump critic, told moderator Kristen Welker. "Donald Trump believes he will be immune for anything he does once he’s in office," she said. Donald Trump loves tyrants. "JD Vance and Donald Trump both support a very isolationist foreign policy and an erratic and a chaotic foreign policy," Cheney added, referring to the former president's running mate. Cheney cited an internationalist foreign policy, including strong support for Ukraine in its defensive war against Russia, as an area where she agrees with Harris.

Zients also made clear that President Joe Biden had directed the Secret Service to provide the highest level of protection for Trump, the source said. A subsequent letter from Wiles to acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe reviewed by NBC News confirmed several of the campaign’s requests. The Trump campaign also requested that special operations forces be assigned to protect Trump, according to two U.S. officials. A defense official told NBC News that the “department continues to provide enhanced support to the U.S. Secret Service” for the presidential and vice presidential candidates. Another source said Trump is receiving the same level of protection as Biden, so the campaign should not expect more.

Simmons also wrote that the vice president eats a healthy diet and engages in regular daily aerobics and core strength training. Harris' last medical exam in April was "unremarkable," Simmons said, adding that all of her routine exams and bloodwork were "normal." The report noted Harris' skin was "normal apart from mild sun damage in sun-exposed areas." Presidential candidates typically release their medical records, and presidents tend to have annual exams. This is the first time Harris' medical records have been made public.

And they are long-shot races, especially during a presidential election, when ticket-splitting isn’t as common as it used to be. In Florida and Texas, Democrats are focusing on state abortion bans to try to push beyond their recent losses in those states. Cruz’s campaign spent almost $5 million on ads in September and $4 million in the first 10 days of October. The spending disparity is less stark in Florida, where in September Mucarsel-Powell’s campaign spent $8.6 million and Scott’s campaign spent $2.1 million. In Maryland, the Senate race features a similar dynamic, with the race rated by Cook as “Likely Democrat,” even though Harris is expected to win there easily.

— In their first and only debate of an unusually competitive Maryland Senate race Thursday, Prince George's County Executive Angela Alsobrooks and former Gov. Larry Hogan sparred over the issue of abortion and whether the deep blue state would be best represented by a staunch Democrat or an anti-Donald Trump Republican. Hogan distanced himself from the former president and current GOP presidential nominee, framing himself as someone willing to put "country over party." Alsobrooks dismissed that frame, arguing that a vote for Hogan would mean a vote for a Senate Republican majority that would threaten abortion rights and support for Ukraine. Hogan criticized Alsobrooks and "both sides" of the aisle for "trying to change the rules so they can pack the court."

Josh Shapiro confirmed to NBC News on Wednesday that he spoke with tech mogul Elon Musk on Sunday — but said politics never came up. NBC News reported Tuesday that Musk called Shapiro while he was at the Pittsburgh Steelers-Dallas Cowboys game in Pittsburgh over the weekend. Shapiro acknowledged the political rift between him and Musk, saying, “We obviously didn’t talk about politics” on Sunday’s call. Musk himself is set to campaign in the state on behalf of Trump, a fact Trump highlighted at a rally Wednesday in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where he called Musk “fantastic.”“He’s going to do a lot. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and owner of X and SpaceX, has ties to the state since he attended the University of Pennsylvania.

Vice President Kamala Harris hit back at Arkansas GOP Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders' comments that Harris "doesn’t have anything keeping her humble" because she doesn't have children. "I don't think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who, one, are not aspiring to be humble," Harris told "Call Her Daddy" podcast host Alex Cooper. In response, Harris blasted Trump, blaming him for nominating three Supreme Court Justice who voted to overrule Roe v. Wade. Harris asked, referring to Trump's comments about protecting women.

With 30 days to Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are launching a media blitz that began on Sunday, with the two set to appear in a handful of interviews with traditional and new media figures, a senior Harris campaign official told NBC News. The media blitz from Harris and Walz comes after Republicans have criticized the pair for weeks for avoiding taking questions from the media. The upcoming media interviews will also be accompanied by campaign events in battleground states for Harris and Walz. Harris will be in battleground Nevada on Thursday for several campaign stops and a Univision town hall.

Former first lady Melania Trump on Sunday defended her beliefs on abortion, which she detailed in an upcoming memoir and which seem to be at odds with those of her husband, former President Donald Trump. “[Donald Trump] knew my position and my beliefs since the day we met. I think I don’t want government in my personal business,” Melania Trump told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo in a pretaped interview that aired Sunday. Without a doubt there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth,” Melania Trump said in the video. And in August, Trump told NBC News that Florida’s six-week abortion ban, which was signed into law by GOP Gov.

“This is the legacy of Donald Trump, which is we now cannot go into an election with full confidence that the results will be peaceful,” the congressman, who is running for Senate this year, told Welker. NBC News has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment. He added that he expects Harris to win the election but that “it is still scary close” and that larger-than-expected margins could stem the threat of violence related to the election result. “The reason why the margin is so important is because [Republicans] will challenge the results when they lose. Running up that margin as much as possible and turning people out has to be our priority,” Schiff said.

President Joe Biden said Friday he was confident that the November election would be "free and fair" but expressed concerns that it may not be "peaceful." During a surprise appearance at the White House press briefing, a reporter asked Biden if he thought that the election would be free and fair and whether it would be peaceful. Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate, Minnesota Gov. Biden on Friday referenced the exchange, telling reporters, "I noticed the vice presidential Republican candidate did not say he'd accept the outcome of the election. On Wednesday, prosecutors filed a new brief in the federal election interference case against Trump, alleging that Trump worked in a personal capacity after the 2020 presidential election to get the results overturned.

The news is a particular blow to Vice President Kamala Harris, since the union was the first to endorse Joe Biden's presidential bid in 2020. In a statement, Edward A. Kelly, the union's president, said that the group's executive board voted on Thursday by 1.2% not to endorse. Both presidential campaigns made personal appeals to the union’s members at a convention in Boston in August, with Minnesota Gov. Last month, the Teamsters union, which represents over 1 million truck drivers, freight workers and others, also declined to endorse a presidential candidate. The AFL-CIO and the United Auto Workers union — which represent millions of workers combined — have each endorsed Harris this cycle.
