New York CNN —Does Donald Trump really want his running mate, JD Vance, to have the final debating word this fall? The only remaining agreed-to debate of this presidential election season is the October 1 face-off between the vice presidential nominees, Vance and Tim Walz. CBS is hosting the VP debate and allowing other networks to simulcast the matchup, just as CNN did in June and ABC did earlier this month. The Harris campaign signaled that it would be interested, but only after the VP debate. The first two presidential debates this year were indisputably valuable to the tens of millions of voters who tuned in.

An unlikely technology billionaire could come out on top in the battle of the world's richest a year from now. That briefly positioned Ellison as the richest person in the world behind Musk and ahead of Bezos. This could boost the ex-CEO's fortune by $27.8 billion to $203.9 billion, placing him less than $3 billion behind Ellison in stock value. That could mean a windfall for CEO Huang's stock fortune, lifting his stake by $27.2 billion to $128.7 billion. Musk's Tesla stake could decline nearly 11% to $89.6 billion from roughly $100.3 billion as of Thursday's close.

“I’m here to support my wife and everybody else that deserves the right to have freedom of their reproductive rights,” said Goldberg, a 70-year-old retired computer software developer. Women clearly feel the impact of abortion restrictions, said Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez. At the same time, he argued, there’s no precedent for reproductive rights being a driving issue for men. The couple has become surrogates for the Harris campaign on reproductive rights, including at last month’s Democratic National Convention. “I’m here because the fight for reproductive rights isn’t just a women’s fight,” Josh Zurawski said at the Chicago convention.

Bezos, who had been the second-richest person on and off since 2016, is worth $202 billion. The stock surge caused Ellison to briefly pass Bezos as the world's second-richest person on Friday, before the Amazon founder reclaimed the title. Oracle said last week that it would partner with Amazon's cloud computing unit to enable its database services on dedicated hardware.

LONDON — Two alleged art thieves will appear in court in London next month accused of stealing “Girl With Balloon,” a famous painting by the mysterious British street artist Banksy. Larry Fraser, 47, from east London, and James Love, 53, from Essex, were both charged with non-residential burglary and placed in police custody on Thursday. The artwork — which shows a little girl letting go of, or perhaps reaching out for, a heart-shaped balloon — was stolen from a gallery in central London on Sept. 8 at 11:00 p.m, police said. The painting was the only item stolen and police said it had been recovered and would be returned to the gallery. The latest artworks from Banksy were a series of animal paintings dotted around London last month.
