Trump and Harris campaign out West in final sprint to Election Day: Live

Cash-strapped former Mayor Rudy Giuliani is allegedly not “ready” to hand over his New York City apartment after a federal judge ordered him to turn over his Manhattan penthouse and other valuables to two election workers he defamed.

A judge last week ordered Giuliani to transfer his Madison Avenue co-op apartment — along with cash, 26 watches, his Mercedes Benz that was allegedly previously owned by Lauren Bacall and other valuables — to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whom he has been ordered to pay $150 million in a defamation verdict. Now, he is not “ready” to make the transfer — even though movers planned to come to his apartment Thursday.

Just a sample of what was on offer at this evening’s Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson event, part of the profits of which will be donated to relief efforts for those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

There was a comedy act, a priest with a guitar, Nicole Shanahan, and then Charlie Kirk:

He was followed by Senator Mike Lee:

Andrew Feinberg filed this report for The Independent from the White House.

He had no idea what he was in for.

Thursday’s episode of The Joe Rogan Experience marks twice now in as many weeks that the fight commentator and former Fear Factor host has left a member of the Republican ticket looking foolish in selectively edited clips of his show. Vance, having clearly expected either the kind of freewheeling conversation Rogan is known for with his non-political guests or at the very least to not be challenged on his claims, walked into a rhetorical shooting gallery.

White House press officials altered the official transcript of a call in which President Joe Biden appeared to take a swipe at supporters of Donald Trump, drawing objections from the federal workers who document such remarks for posterity, according to two U.S. government officials and an internal email obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.

Biden created an uproar earlier this week with his remarks to Latino activists responding to racist comments at a Trump rally made by the comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who referred to the U.S. island territory of Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.”

Biden, according to a transcript prepared by the official White House stenographers, told the Latino group on a Tuesday evening video call, “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”

The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,” which aides said pointed to Biden criticizing Hinchcliffe, not the millions of Americans who are supporting Trump for president.

The change was made after the press office “conferred with the president,” according to an internal email from the head of the stenographers’ office that was obtained by The AP. The authenticity of the email was confirmed by two government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters.

The supervisor, in the email, called the press office’s handling of the matter “a breach of protocol and spoilation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.”

“If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,” the supervisor wrote, adding, “Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff.”
