On Wednesday, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters announced it would not endorse either Donald Trump or Kamala Harris for the presidential election, citing insufficient support from its 1.3 million members. Meanwhile, Israeli officials planned an operation in Lebanon, leading to reports of explosions that killed at least 12 and injured over 450. In Congress, House Republicans blocked their own short-term funding bill amid divisions, with Trump insisting on attaching the SAVE Act. The Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates by 0.25% in response to economic shifts before the 2024 election. Additionally, federal officials revealed that Iranian hackers targeted Trump's campaign and sent information to the Biden campaign, but there’s no evidence of a response from Biden’s team.
