To kick off the week, Harris' interview with Alex Cooper on the popular "Call Her Daddy" podcast is expected to air Sunday. The Trump campaign declined to do a "60 Minutes" interview after initially accepting the invitation, according to the network. On Tuesday, the Harris campaign will fly the vice president to New York for appearances on ABC's "The View," CBS' "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and "The Howard Stern Show." Along with various appearances on Fox News, more friendly territory for the Republican nominee, Trump has interviewed on podcasts that are popular with young men like "This Past Weekend w/Theo Von" and the "Lex Fridman Podcast." Over the course of Harris' fast-tracked campaign, the vice president has sat for interviews with CNN, a panel from the National Association of Black Journalists, MSNBC and some local outlets.

☆ Fact check: Amid bipartisan praise for Biden hurricane response, Trump falsely claims reviews are ‘universally’ negative
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-03 | by ( Daniel Dale | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

The Biden administration’s response to the hurricane has received bipartisan praise from political leaders in affected states. But Trump’s assertion that reviews for the Biden administration’s handling of the crisis have been entirely negative is not true. And this is just the latest Trump false claim on the subject of the administration’s hurricane response. Brian Kemp hadn’t been able to get Biden on the phone, though Kemp had said the same day that he had already spoken to Biden. Praise from Republican governorsVarious Republican governors in the southeastern states hit by Hurricane Helene have praised the Biden administration’s response, sometimes naming Biden in particular.

Tim Walz said he believes his rival for vice president, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, wants to solve the nation’s immigration crisis, but he questioned whether former President Donald Trump really does. Vance acknowledged that Walz wants to solve the problem, too, but he questioned whether Vice President Kamala Harris really does. Vance said he and Walz “probably agree that we need to do better” on addressing gun violence. “I think Tim Walz agreed with JD Vance significantly more times in this debate. “Look, I’ve known Tim Walz 16 years, and that’s who he is,” Colorado Gov.

Tim Walz take the stage in New York City for Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate, it will be their first in-person meeting. Given that Trump hasn’t agreed to a second showdown with Harris, Vance vs. Walz could very well be the last debate before Election Day. With all that in mind, here are a few things to watch for as Vance and Walz face off in New York:Does Walz win the expectations game? “I can’t wait to debate the guy,” Walz said, before he alluded to a vulgar false claim made about Vance online.

The central clash in the pivotal Senate race in Montana — and the fight for control of the Senate itself — was on full display Monday night as Democratic Sen. Jon Tester and Republican Tim Sheehy faced off in a heated debate. Like other vulnerable Senate Democrats, Tester tried to make it personal — touting his bipartisan bona fides, highlighting his own connections to his red-leaning state and suggesting his opponent cannot be trusted. Montana is the party’s next top target, with Tester running for re-election in a state Trump won by 16 points in 2020. James Richmond, 50, an IT consultant and voter in Helena, pointed to those comments in explaining why he plans to support Sheehy, despite supporting Tester’s work for veterans. An AARP poll conducted in late August found Sheehy leading Tester by 6 points, 55% to 49%.

☆ Kamala Harris on working at McDonald’s in her 20s: 'It was not a small job'

Before going into politics, Vice President Kamala Harris worked at McDonald's in her 20s, she confirmed in a recent interview with MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle. "It was not a small job," Harris told Ruhle. "There are people who work at McDonald's in our country who are trying to...raise families and pay rent." To Harris, working at McDonald's inspired her to make lowering costs and raising economic security a "top priority" if elected president in November. These are valuable skills in any career, Tiffanie Boyd, senior vice president and chief people officer for McDonald's, previously told CNBC Make It.

☆ Amazon and TV vet Brian Williams are nearing a deal that hints at a new strategy for the streaming giant

Brian Williams is close to a deal with Amazon to host an election-night special on Prime Video. These people were granted anonymity to speak freely about private deal talks. AdvertisementThe people close to the deal talks rebuffed the idea that Amazon would build its own news operation, however. Amazon this year turned on ads in Prime Video, gunning for the nearly $70 billion in annual TV ad spending. "It fits in with their interest in disruptions and amassing big audiences," the second person close to the deal talks said.

☆ Brian Williams is set to anchor election night coverage on Prime Video. Is Amazon getting into live news?

Amazon’s election coverage plan engendered lots of TV industry chatter when it was first reported by Puck and Variety over the weekend. The notion of a Big Tech heavyweight distributing its own election night TV show would have been hard to imagine a decade ago. Williams, 65, is a product of broadcast TV who led NBC’s election night coverage in 2008 and 2012. The Amazon election event – which has yet to be named – will be his first major project since signing off MSNBC three years ago. If election night morphs into something like election week, as it did in 2020, it remains to be determined whether Amazon’s live coverage would continue.

☆ The politics of tariffs are complicated. A Democrat just introduced a bill to make Trump's proposals law.

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.

Harris is scheduled to make her first trip to the southern U.S. border in more than three years. “We do have a broken immigration system,” Harris said Wednesday in an interview with MSNBC. In discussing immigration, Harris has increasingly attacked Trump over his efforts to kill a bipartisan border funding deal this year. “She keeps talking about how she supposedly wants to fix the border,” Trump said Thursday at a news conference at Trump Tower. He’s skeptical of Harris’ tougher talk on immigration.

Republicans stand a good chance of erasing the Democrats’ narrow 51-49 Senate majority in November, a hard reality that complicates Harris' transition planning. Members of Harris’ transition team have studied that one — the handoff from Ronald Reagan to George H.W. Harris' team is operating under an unusually compressed timeline and is still building the basic apparatus needed to vet potential hires and staff an administration. Last month, Harris' campaign appointed Yohannes Abraham to run the team that is preparing for a transfer of power. He came to his new role with direct experience, having been executive director of Biden’s transition in 2020.

Harris is scheduled to visit a border town in Arizona on Friday, her campaign announced Wednesday. Trump has made the border and immigration a centerpiece of his pitch for the presidency, making multiple visits to the southern border during the campaign. Friday's visit to Douglas, Arizona, will be Harris' second trip to the southern border during her term as vice president. NBC News reported in August that shelters on the southern border and in some major cities experienced sharp declines in migrants seeking shelter over the past several months. Border Patrol agents in June apprehended the lowest monthly number of migrants crossing the southern border since President Joe Biden took office.

A majority of chief financial officers (55%) say Harris will win the election, according to the Q3 CNBC CFO Council Survey. That's a reversal from the prior CFO survey in Q2 (when President Joe Biden was still the candidate) and a majority of CFOs (58%) believed Trump would win. In the Q2 CFO survey, 29% of executives said they were unsure who would win. The majority belief that Harris will win comes despite an equal majority of CFOs (55%) telling the survey that Trump is better on inflation and for the economy. The CNBC CFO Council Survey was conducted between August 19 and September 19, a period which included the presidential debate.

CNN —Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to the White House on Thursday could be his final chance to convince a receptive American president of his country’s war aims. Even if Biden decides to allow the long-range fires, it’s unclear whether the change in policy would be announced publicly. The ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia is no exception, they say, insisting that Ukraine would continue to have the US’s unwavering support against Russian aggression under a Harris presidency. “Five days before Russia attacked Ukraine, I met with President Zelensky to warn him about Russia’s plan to invade. There is quiet recognition even inside the Biden administration that any reassurances Zelensky may receive from Biden and Harris this week on the US’s commitment to supporting Ukraine could all be for naught under a different American president.

A spokesperson for the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Harris' remarks. Trump has also insisted that Harris' anecdote about having worked at the fast-food chain is a "fake story." During Wednesday's interview, Harris said: "My mother raised my sister and me.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris called former President Donald Trump's tariff proposals "a sales tax on the American people," in an interview with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle. "You don't just throw around the idea of just tariffs across the board, and that's part of the problem with Donald Trump," Harris said. The questions came during Harris' first one-on-one interview with a national network since becoming the Democratic nominee. Harris has proposed expanding the child tax credit, creating a tax break for homebuilders and providing a subsidy for first-time homeowners. The interview came shortly after Harris' campaign event in Pittsburgh, where she described her economic priorities.
