Freshly out of prison, right-wing strategist Steve Bannon announced he would assemble a "war room" at the Willard Hotel on election night just as he did on the eve of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol in 2020.

The previous "war room" served as a command center for his plot to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

CNN correspondent Steve Contorno reported Monday that a crowd waiting to see former President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania was "quite thin" with "a lot of empty seats."

Moments before Trump was set to speak in Reading, Pennsylvania, Contorno spoke from the venue where the event was being held.

Donald Trump Jr. predicted that Democrats would use a "magical truck filled with ballots" to cheat against his father, former President Donald Trump.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell complained over the weekend that he was labeled a Nazi after he used a white supremacist code for "Heil Hitler" in his product pricing.

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones encouraged his followers to "fight harder" and be ready for "civil war conditions" after former President Donald Trump gave a campaign rally speech over the weekend.

During Trump's Sunday morning speech in Pennsylvania, he suggested that he should not have left office after losing the 2020 presidential election and called for assassins to target members of the news media.

Former President Donald Trump said he didn't mind if would-be assassins "shoot through the fake news" because he was protected by bulletproof glass.

At a Sunday campaign rally in Pennsylvania, Trump noted that the U.S. Secret Service had installed the ballistic glass following a previous failed assassination attempt.

CBS host Margaret Brennan challenged Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) after he downplayed a racist insult comedian who criticized Puerto Rico at a campaign event with former President Donald Trump.

"In recent days, the Harris campaign has said they have seen favorable movement towards them with Latinos and with undecided voters, particularly following that New York rally we referenced there with the insult comment making remarks about Puerto Rico," Brennan explained during a Sunday interview. "You've been focused on outreach to Hispanic voters for the Trump campaign. Are you concerned that this unforced error hurt outreach?"

NBC host Kristen Welker confronted Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND), a surrogate for Donald Trump, after the former president called supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris "garbage."

"Governor, let me ask you about a big story this week, the campaign continuing to deal with the fallout from the offensive comments about Puerto Rico made by a supporter of former President Trump by that comedian at that rally last weekend," Welker told Burgum in a Sunday interview. "The Puerto Rican community in Pennsylvania factors almost half a million people in that critical state, some saying they were absolutely furious about the comments, hurt that former President Trump hasn't apologized."

Fox News correspondent Aishah Hasnie said the Trump campaign was scrambling after a new "shock poll" showed Donald Trump losing in the red state of Iowa.

"Now, all of this comes as a new Des Moines Register poll came out last night, a shock poll showing Harris beating Trump by three points in Iowa, normally a red state," Hasnie reported Sunday. "That sent shockwaves across the political spectrum."

Appearing on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Friday morning, the editor-in-chief of the The Economist explained why the venerable institution couldn't bring itself to back Donald Trump and instead cast its lot with Vice President Kamala Harris with an endorsement that caught political observers by surprise.

Speaking with the panel, Zanny Minton Beddoes summed up the Economist's position on Trump by calling him an "unacceptable risk we think he poses to America and the world."

"The audience that we had in mind when we wrote this was our many readers who are Republicans," she explained to Morning Joe regular Katty Kay. "We have Republicans and Democrat readers and we didn't want this to be a grand statement for the history books. We wanted to try to lay out to those readers that we have, who are likely to vote for Donald Trump, why we think he poses a risk."
