Harris attacks Trump as "confused" and dangerous in combative debate

Vice President Harris landed repeated blows on former President Trump during their first presidential debate, attacking his criminal convictions, rambling statements and unpopular positions on issues including abortion.This was a very different debate this cycle for Trump than the one in June that effectively knocked President Biden out of the race, and his performance appeared unlikely to pull in many wavering moderate voters.Harris seemed to zero in on Trump's trigger points, prompting him to give bellicose and occasionally confusing answers on issues like abortion and the size of his rally crowds.Pressed on January 6, Trump denied culpability and referred to the police who defended the Capitol as "the other side."

Trump’s false claim about Haitian immigrants eating pets invokes racist trope

For days, Donald Trump and his allies have zeroed in on Springfield, Ohio, amplifying baseless claims that Haitian immigrants there are eating others’ pets. The promotion of such rumors, which thrust the city into the national spotlight, is rooted in a centuries-old racist trope of vilifying newcomers to the United States and highlights the country’s present-day divides, historians say.“We’re going to get these people out,” Trump said Friday during a news conference at his golf course in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., promising to conduct “large deportations” if he is elected president.His remarks were the latest in a swirl of canards that Trump has spread about Haitian immigrants, despite local officials debunking the claims. Leaders in Springfield have said the claims are harming the community, which has been forced to evacuate schools, city hall and other buildings after receiving threats since Trump’s remarks.Trump has also incorrectly said that Haitians in Springfield are in the U.S. illegally, though local officials have rebutted that as well. The migrants were granted temporary protected status in the United States after fleeing violence at home.
