Kamala Harris calls Trump unstable and revenge-obsessed ahead of election

Former President Donald Trump is becoming increasingly unstable, obsessed with revenge and is out for unchecked power, Vice President Kamala Harris said on Friday in an unprecedented attack on her Republican rival ahead of next week's election. In a rally in Las Vegas, Harris, the Democratic leader of Indian heritage said Trump is all about "hate" and more division and that he would bring an "enemies list" to the White House while she would carry a "to-do list" of priorities. Singer Jennifer Lopez joined the Democratic leader at the rally. "We all know who Donald Trump is. He is not someone who is thinking about how to make your life better. He is someone who is increasingly unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance, and he is out for unchecked power," Harris said at the rally. With just four days left for the November 5 vote, the race between Trump and Harris remained very tight in the key battleground states. "If he (Trump) is re-elected, Donald Trump will walk in

Trump extends Diwali greetings, condemns attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh

Sending Diwali greetings, former president Donald Trump, who is the Republican presidential candidate, on Thursday condemned the attack on Hindus in Bangladesh, vowed to strengthen ties with India and described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as his good friend. Bangladesh, he said, remains in a total state of chaos and alleged that his Democratic rival Vice President Kamala Harris and her boss President Joe Biden have ignored Hindus across the world and in America. I strongly condemn the barbaric violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities who are getting attacked and looted by mobs in Bangladesh, which remains in a total state of chaos, Trump said in a post on Truth Social. This is for the first time that Trump has spoken on the issue of Bangladesh. Hundreds of Hindus were killed in July-August in Bangladesh when a students' agitation turned into massive protests leading to then prime minister Sheikh Hasina to flee the country on August 5. It would have never happened

Challenge of Musk's $ 1mn a day voter sweepstakes moves to federal court

A Pennsylvania prosecutor's effort to shut down Elon Musk's $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes moved to federal court on Thursday after a state judge let both sides debate their grievances in a hearing skipped by the world's richest man. Judge Angelo Foglietta agreed that Musk, as a named defendant in the lawsuit filed by Democratic District Attorney Larry Krasner, should have attended the hearing in person, but he declined to immediately sanction the tech mogul. Musk's lawyer, Matthew Haverstick, said he's a busy man who could not simply materialize in the courtroom hours after the hearing was scheduled. Krasner's team challenged the notion that the founder of SpaceX could not make it Philadelphia, prompting a quick retort from the judge. Counsel, he's not going to get in a rocket ship and land on the building, Foglietta replied. The huge giveaways to registered voters come from Musk's political organization, which aims to boost Donald Trump's presidential campaign. After his law

Kamala Harris, you are fired, says Donald Trump at Wisconsin rally

Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump held competing rallies in Wisconsin as they tried to outperform each other in the key battleground state, five days ahead of the US election day. The latest CNN polls showed that Democratic nominee Harris has a narrow advantage in Michigan and Wisconsin, while she and Republican candidate Trump remain tied in Pennsylvania. In Michigan, Harris holds a lead over Trump by 48 per cent to 43 per cent among likely voters, according to the findings Harris also leads Trump in Wisconsin, where 51 per cent support her to 45 per cent for Trump, but the race is tied in Pennsylvania with both having 48 per cent support. As the race for the White House remained razor-tight, Trump mounted a sharp attack on Harris while using President Joe Biden's comments that appeared to call Trump's supporters "garbage". Dressed in a garbage vest, Trump arrived at the venue of the recent rally in Wisconsin's Green Bay area in a dump truck and ...

New law makes easy duelling presidential transitions possible in US

There will be 77 days between Election Day and inauguration, a period in which the president-elect may ready his or her administration to take over power from President Joe Biden. Long built on tradition and bipartisanship, the presidential transition exploded into a point of political contention four years ago, after then-President Donald Trump made baseless claims to dispute his loss and his administration delayed kicking off the transition process for weeks. This year, a new law is meant to start the transition sooner, no matter who wins. But, if neither major party candidate concedes after Election Day, the updated rules allow both sides to get additional government funding and logistical support to begin working toward transitioning to power. That could lead to both Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump potentially assembling duelling, governments-in-waiting for weeks. Rules can only take you so far, and ultimately you need to have the players in the system working to shared .

US election system proving secure, but human nature is a vulnerability

Hacking a local election system in the United States wouldn't be easy, and secretly altering votes on a scale massive enough to change the outcome of the presidential race would be impossible, election officials have said, thanks to decentralised systems, paper records for nearly all ballots, exhaustive reviews, legal due process and decades of work by American election officials, volunteers and citizens. But foreign actors and domestic extremist groups looking to meddle in next week's election can target a much weaker link: voters' perceptions and emotions. Those intent on undermining confidence in US democracy don't have to change any votes if they can convince enough Americans not to trust the outcome. It's a possible scenario particularly concerning to intelligence analysts and officials tasked with protecting America's election: An adversary tries to hack a state or local election system and then releases a document perhaps a fake one or even material that is publicly available

US' Europe allies face tough times, whoever wins presidential election

The United States' European allies are bracing for an America that's less interested in them no matter who wins the presidential election - and for old traumas and new problems if Donald Trump returns to the White House. The election comes more than 2 1/2 years into Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, in which Washington has made the single biggest contribution to Kyiv's defence. There are question marks over whether that would continue under Trump, and how committed he would be to NATO allies in general. A win by Vice President Kamala Harris could be expected to bring a continuation of current policy, though with Republican opposition and growing war fatigue among the US public there are concerns in Europe that support would wane. Trump's appetite for imposing tariffs on US partners also is causing worry in a Europe already struggling with sluggish economic growth. But it's not just the possibility of a second Trump presidency that has the continent anxious about tougher times

Judge sets hearing on $1 mn a-day sweepstakes from Musk PAC helping Trump

A Philadelphia judge is holding a hearing Thursday morning in the city prosecutor's bid to shut down Elon Musk's USD 1 million-a-day sweepstakes in battleground states. The giveaways come from Musk's political organisation, which aims to boost Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, a Democrat, filed suit Monday to stop the America PAC sweepstakes, which is set to run through Election Day. Judge Angelo Foglietta will hear motions on the issue in a City Hall courtroom. Matthew Haverstick, one of several lawyers representing the defendants, declined to say late Wednesday if Musk would attend the hearing. The sweepstakes is open to people in battleground states who sign a petition supporting the Constitution. Krasner has said he could still consider criminal charges, saying he is tasked with protecting the public from both illegal lotteries and interference with the integrity of elections. Election law experts have raised questions about .

Donald Trump boards garbage truck to draw attention to Biden's remark

Donald Trump walked down the steps of the Boeing 757 that bears his name, walked across a rain-soaked tarmac and, after twice missing the handle, climbed into the passenger seat of a white garbage truck that also carried his name. The former president, once a reality TV star known for his showmanship, wanted to draw attention to a remark made a day earlier by his successor, Democratic President Joe Biden, that suggested Trump's supporters were garbage. Trump has used the remark as a cudgel against his Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris. How do you like my garbage truck? Trump said, wearing an orange and yellow safety vest over his white dress shirt and red tie. This is in honour of Kamala and Joe Biden. Trump and other Republicans were facing pushback of their own for comments by a comedian at a weekend Trump rally who disparaged Puerto Rico as a floating island of garbage. Trump then seized on a comment Biden made on a late Wednesday call that "The only garbage I see ..
