Former Southern Baptist leader Russell Moore sees "the devil at play" in Donald Trump and J.D. Vance's stories about Haitian immigrants in Ohio.

Both candidates on the Republican presidential ticket have spread false claims about migrants stealing and eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, which has resulted in bomb threats made to government buildings and schools. Moore condemned their morals on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

A surprising swing state that could define the 2024 presidential election is showing signs of dissatisfaction with former President Donald Trump, a new analysis found.

Vice President Kamala Harris might be able to claim a southern state that Democrats have proved unable to win at the presidential level since 2008, the Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin wrote Monday.

A pair of political strategists disagreed over the situation in Springfield, Ohio on CNN Monday, after days of former President Donald Trump and Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) pushing racist conspiracy theories about Haitian migrant workers in the community abducting and eating people's cats and dogs — to the point where violence is flaring up.

Madison Gesiotto, a GOP political strategist, acknowledged Vance's claims were fake — but insisted he was just, clumsily, trying to draw attention to a real harm being done by immigrants.

MyPillow founder Mike Lindell's "election crime" group allegedly sent out emails requesting personal information from local officials and information about security threats by impersonating a nonprofit cybersecurity initiative.

The Lindell-backed Election Crime Bureau emailed at least one Georgia county Sept. 5 asking officials to respond to a survey about the nonprofit Center for Internet Security (CIS) and its Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center, which is funded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, reported Rolling Stone.

The sheriff of an Ohio county recently asked his followers on Facebook to keep track of people in their neighborhoods who are openly supporting Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign.

Local news station WKYC reported that Portage County Sheriff Bruce D. Zuchowski told his followers to "write down" the addresses of people who put Harris-Walz signs in their front lawns so that he could drop off any undocumented immigrants at their residences.

A Republican member of Congress who tried to defend Sen. J.D. Vance's admission that he created stories about Haitian immigrants eating pets faced stern rebuke from a fed-up CNN anchor Monday morning.

Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) proved unable to convince Kate Bolduan that Vance was justified in spreading false information if it focused the mainstream media's attention on President Joe Biden's immigration policy.

MSNBC's John Heilemann delivered a withering description of Donald Trump's "toxic" new travel companion.

Far-right influencer Laura Loomer has reportedly encouraged Trump to spread racist conspiracy theories about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, and other outlandish claims, leaving "Morning Joe" panelists puzzled over her sudden prominence in the 2024 campaign.

A conservative pundit on Monday offered rare criticism of former President Donald Trump over repeated false claims that Haitian immigrants are eating pets.

CNN analyst Shermichael Singleton slammed Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, for campaign rhetoric about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio that he described as hateful and not politically savvy.

Former President Donald Trump could respond to the recent apparent attempt to assassinate him by becoming more extreme — even if it puts lives at risk, a new political analysis contends.

Trump's refusal to heed warnings that he endangers lives by repeating false claims that Haitians eat pets, and his repeated claims that the Justice Department has been weaponized against him suggests any renewed calls for unity likely will not last, CNN's Stephen Collinson argued Monday.

Donald Trump has been hammering Vice President Kamala Harris relentlessly on the economy, blaming the policies of the Biden Administration for inflation. And in Pennsylvania, early September robocalls from former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii — an ex-Democrat who has endorsed Trump — have echoed that theme.

But economist Joseph Stiglitz, in a biting op-ed published by The Guardian on September 5, lays out five ways in which he believes a second Trump term would make United States economy "weaker, less competitive and less equal" if he defeats Harris in November.

A retired police officer who took the stand to defend George Floyd killer Derek Chauvin is the latest to publicly back Trump in a campaign ad — the content of which was pulled apart in a fact-check Monday.

Scott Creighton told the jury that convicted Chauvin of the 2020 killing how he’d arrested Floyd less than a year before, and described him as ‘uncompliant” — a claim that was not backed up by body-cam footage that shows Floyd shouting “Don’t shoot me, man!” and Creighton cursing at him.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough called out J.D. Vance Monday for stoking fear and violent threats in his home state of Ohio by knowingly spreading lies about an immigrant community.

The Republican vice presidential candidate, together with Donald Trump, have spread thoroughly debunked claims that Haitian immigrants in Springfield have been stealing and eating pets. But Vance argued on Sunday talk shows that he was entitled to amplify the false claims to draw attention to the community's problems.

Former President Donald Trump struck a rare tone in a late night Truth Social post — one of gratitude.

Trump expressed thanks to supporters who raised concerns and U.S. Secret Service officers who shielded him from the second assassination attempt the Republican presidential nominee has faced in roughly two months.
