On Sunday, former President Donald Trump was targeted in an attempted assassination at his West Palm Beach golf club but was unharmed, with a suspect in custody. Republican Vice Presidential nominee J.D. Vance defended Trump's debunked claims about Haitian migrants and suggested fabricating stories for media attention. The Nevada Green Party is appealing a state court ruling that blocks their candidate, Jill Stein, from the ballot due to a signature collection error. RFK Jr. is under investigation by the National Marine Fisheries Institute for allegedly mishandling a whale specimen, which he disputes. Far-right influencer Laura Loomer, known for conspiracy theories, has faced backlash for racist comments about Haitian immigrants.
