Donald Trump says he will resume federal executions as president and go after cop killers and child rapists

Donald Trump says he will end the Justice Department moratorium on executions on his first day in office, and use the full force of the law to go after major drug dealers and cop killers.

The Trump campaign sees crime, in general, and Kamala Harris's record as a prosecutor in California, in particular, as areas where they can inflict damage on her presidential bid.

And in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, Trump laid out more details of his crime-fighting agenda starting with whether he would reverse the Biden-Harris administration's freeze on federal executions.

'Of course I would. I would have executions on major drug dealers,' he said when asked if it would be a day-one priority.

'I would have, perhaps, the raping of a child, the killing of a police officer.

Former Miss Teen USA contestant is VERY unhappy with J.D. Vance

Former Miss Teen USA contender Caitlin Upton is calling VP hopeful J.D. Vance 'shameful' for resurfacing a clip of her from 2007.

She was asked during the competition why less than a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on map, to which she responded with a world salad of gibberish sparking an embarrassing viral moment.

Vance posted the clip of her response comparing it to Kamala Harris' answers during her first interview with CNN on Thursday evening.

Now, Upton is taking to X to slam Vance for resurfacing the video:

It’s a shame that 17 years later this is still being brought up. There’s not too much else to say about it at this point. Regardless of political beliefs, one thing I do know is that social media and online bullying needs to stop.

J.D. Vance was then asked to respond to her accusations of 'online bullying' during an interview on CNN.

He said he also wasn't aware that she has struggled with her mental health since the incident.

'My heart goes out to her and I hope she’s doing well,' he replied, adding that he has said a lot of stupid things on camera.'

'The best way to deal with it is to laugh at ourselves,' he stated.

Donald Trump to hold Fox News town hall with Sean Hannity on September 4

Donald Trump will participate in a Fox News town hall moderated by Sean Hannity on September 4.

The former president will sit down with voters in Harrisburg, Pennslyvania, on a date he proposed debating Kamala Harris on the network.

The Harris campaign rebuffed, and the candidates are now set for a primetime showdown on ABC on September 10 in Philadelphia.

The two sides are still haggling over the rules. The focal point of contention is whether to mute microphones when the other is speaking.

The Trump campaign said they had agreed to a stringent set of guidelines including no notes, standing and muted mics.

But the Harris team insists there are still disagreements with just 10 days to go.

Viewers say Harris looked WEAK for appearing alongside running mate in CNN interview

Kamala Harris looked 'weak' and 'bad' for waiting weeks and then sitting alongside her running mate rather than appearing solo in her first interview since becoming the Democratic nominee for president, according to a DailyMail.com panel of viewers.

But they also suggested it was a missed opportunity that the vice president can quickly put right.

Her overall performance received positive reviews. When 294 viewers were asked for their one-word review, the most common were 'presidential' and 'smart.'

After avoiding interviews for more than a month, the vice president sat down with CNN's Dana Bash as well as her running mate Tim Walz to answer questions in a Georgia restaurant on Thursday.

J.L. Partners asked a representative sample of viewers: 'Kamala Harris did the interview with her running mate, and has not sat for a solo interview since she has been named the nominee. How do you think this makes Kamala Harris look?'

J.D. Vance says Trump would appoint a Democrat to his cabinet

J.D. Vance said Donald Trump would 'of course' pick a Democrat to be in his cabinet, after Kamala Harris suggested she could choose a Republican during her high-stakes CNN interview.

'We actually got a lot of great Democratic support, we just got RFK [Jr.], of course, Tulsi Gabbard, who endorsed the president in just the last couple of days,' Vance told the network on Friday morning.

'If you look at the Trump movement in 2024, it’s actually the common sense big tent movement in American politics,' he added.

'We don’t agree on everything. Of course, not everybody who votes for Donald Trump is going to agree with every policy issue, but we agree on the basics.'

'We agree that American energy prices should be lower. We agree that we should be making more of our own stuff in the United States of America.

'We agree that we should close down the border and stop the flow of illegal drugs and trafficking into our country. It’s just the basic common sense stuff.'

House Armed Services Chairman reflects on three-year anniversary of Afghanistan withdrawal

House Armed Services Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Ala., issued a statement on the three-year mark of the Afghanistan withdrawal.

In 2021, President Biden and Vice President Harris publicly set an arbitrary deadline to complete the United States’ withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Biden-Harris administration’s arbitrary deadline was fueled by craven politics and unnecessarily put Americans in danger. Congress and senior military officials warned that a rushed and unconditional withdrawal would lead to disaster. Unfortunately, the Biden-Harris administration ignored these warnings. 
Make no mistake, our nation is less safe today because of the Biden-Harris administration’s catastrophic withdrawal. Conflict in the Middle East has escalated to historic levels, including hundreds of attacks on U.S. servicemembers.
Our adversaries in the Middle East are no longer deterred. The disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal was one of the first signals of weakness from the Biden-Harris administration to our adversaries in the region. Weakness and chaos will be the legacy of the Biden-Harris administration.

Harris lying low after CNN interview

Kamala HarrisTim WalzCNN Exclusive interviewAugust 29, 2024

By Emily Goodin, senior White House correspondent

Kamala Harris is lying low after her CNN interview, which Republicans have attacked as ‘boring’ and full of ‘word salad.’

Even some Democrats said her interview didn't 'move the ball forward that much.'

The vice president is in Washington D.C. and has no public events on her schedule.

She ‘will receive briefings and conduct internal meetings with staff. These meetings will be closed press,’ her office said of her Friday events.

Harris’ next public event is scheduled for Monday when she will hold a rally in Detroit and then head to Pittsburgh for a Labor Day rally with President Joe Biden.

Former Republican Rep. and Iraq war veteran slams Tim Walz's response to military record question

Former Republican Rep. Peter Meijer has criticized vice presidential candidate Tim Walz for how he answered a question about embellishing his military record.

Walz was asked on CNN if he 'misspoke' when he claimed he carried guns in war, even though he never deployed to a combat zone as a member of the National Guard.

Kamala Harris' running mate said he was talking about school shootings and then appeared to blame his 'bad grammar'.

Meijer said on X: 'This is such a disappointing response from Walz. Even if this rambling tripe was what the campaign media folks demanded he say, shame on him for not insisting on an answer that was honest and showed some humility.'

'Train wreck for Harris': Kamala is ripped to shreds for 'word salad' CNN softball interview as ex-Obama strategist gives brutal verdict ahead of Trump debate showdown

Kamala Harris was last night ripped to shreds for her 'word salad' answers in a softball liberal media interview - her first since Joe Biden dropped out 40 days ago.

The Democratic nominee appeared beside her running mate Tim Walz for an hour-long broadcast - which in reality amounted to less than half an hour of actual questioning by Dana Bash.

The liberal commentariat claimed that she had succeeded by following the tenet of 'do no harm' during the pre-recorded broadcast from Savannah, Georgia.

But Harris' critics said she failed to address three issues that plague her campaign: the border crisis, red-hot inflation and the Biden health cover-up.

David Axelrod, a former Obama strategist, gave a brutal verdict in CNN's post-game analysis, stating that Harris hadn't 'moved the ball forward that much.'

Scott Jennings, an ex-Bush advisor, issued the ominous warning that Donald Trump will be 'salivating' ahead of the presidential debate on September 10 - their first ever face-to-face meeting.

Kamala Harris insists she doesn't regret saying Biden, 81, was fit to serve in 'vague' and 'boring' CNN interview

Kamala Harris defended President Joe Biden's fitness to serve in her first interview as the Democratic presidential nominee and took a pass when it came to commenting on her Republican rival Donald Trump.

Harris sat down with CNN's Dana Bash in what the network described as a 'wide-ranging interview.' While many topics were covered, Harris stuck to her talking points and, at times, appeared nervous and hesitant in her responses.

She did grow animated in one area, when she defended Biden's ability to do the job and talked about that day he called her to say he was dropping out of the race. Biden, 81, was pressured out of the race by Democrats, who were worried he'd lose to Trump after his disastrous debate performance where he struggled for words and stared into space.

'I have served with President Biden for almost four years,' Harris said in defense of the president. 'He truly cares so deeply about the American people. He is so smart and loyal to the American people.'

'I have spent hours upon hours with him being in the Oval Office or the Situation Room - he has the intelligence, the commitment, and the judgment and disposition that I think the American people rightly deserve in their president,' she added.

'By contrast, the former president has none of that and so one, I am so proud to have served as vice president to Joe Biden and I'm so proud to be running with Tim Walz for president United States.'

Gwen Walz will hold her first solo campaign event on Friday when she speaks to teachers in Virginia.

Walz met her husband Tim Walz when they were both high school teachers.

Her event is tied to the start of the new school year. Virginia has trended red in recent years but some Democrats see it as still in play.

She will thank over 100 educators and school personnel at the event in Manassas, alongside Senator Tim Kaine, former Virginia Secretary of Education Ann Holton, and Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton, the campaign said.

Donald Trump signals that he will vote against Florida's abortion ban: 'I think it should be more than six weeks'

Donald Trump signaled that he could vote to end Florida's six-week abortion ban when it comes up in a referendum later this year, as he continues his delicate dance around a key election issue.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com he previewed an upcoming announcement on his voting stance by saying that he did not think six weeks was enough time.

But he avoided committing to using the presidential veto if a nationwide federal ban arrived on his desk as president even though his running mate said he would.

In office, Trump reveled in being the most pro-life president in history, taking credit for ending federal protections for abortion by installing the conservative justices on the Supreme Court who overturned Roe v Wade.

This time he is trying to keep both sides happy on one of the most divisive issues in the election by saying it is up to states to decide their own laws.

Tim Walz gives VERY bizarre reason for falsely claiming her carried a gun in war... and pivots to attacks on his children and his dog

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz shrugged off questions about his incorrect descriptions of his military service record, during a CNN interview on Thursday.

'My record speaks for itself but I think as people are coming to know me I speak like they do,' Walz said, dodging the question. 'I speak candidly, I wear my emotions on my sleeves.'

In 2018, Walz said he carried 'weapons of war' in battle, during a discussion about the need for gun control.

'We can make sure that those weapons of war that I carried in war is the only place where those weapons are at,' he said, despite never being deployed overseas.

He then referred to criticism he got from his wife, when speaking publicly about his record.

Trump campaign plays cleanup after former president told Daily Mail the Florida abortion ban needs to be longer than six weeks

The Trump Campaign raced to clarify the former president's comments after he signalled that he was open to expanding access to abortion in Florida in an upcoming referendum.

Florida bans almost all abortions after six weeks and, when asked how he would vote on a measure that would extend the limit to more than 20 weeks, Trump told DailyMail.com: 'I want more than six weeks.'

In a referendum that offers a simple yes or no to voters, his response horrified allies in the anti-abortion movement.

And his campaign played cleanup on Thursday evening.

'President Trump has not yet said how he will vote on the ballot initiative in Florida, he simply reiterated that he believes six weeks is too short,' said Karoline Leavitt, Trump Campaign national press secretary.

Trump leads Harris by one point in battleground state of Michigan

Donald Trump is leading Kamala Harris by just one point in the 2024 swing state of Michigan , a new poll shows.

The Republican nominee was ahead in the battleground by seven points a month ago, but his lead has been erased since President Joe Biden decided not to run for re-election.

The poll by EPIC-MRA of Lansing for the Detroit Free Press, shows Trump at 46 percent and Harris at 45.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who endorsed Trump last week, gets a projected three percent of the vote while the Green Party 's Jill Stein gets one. Five percent are undecided.

In a head-to-head matchup, Trump leads Harris by 47 to 46 percent, with seven percent undecided.

Biden carried Michigan by 2.78 percent over Trump in 2020, a far narrower gap than was anticipated.

The results show the election is still a tossup with just 67 days to go until election day.
