Trump and Vance hold rally in battleground state of Georgia: Live

The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump’s election interference case has denied his attempt to throw out the proceedings.

In an order, issued on Saturday, DC District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan rejected Trump’s motion to dismiss the Department of Justice’s case on legal grounds.

Trump “may file a renewed motion once all issues of immunity have been resolved,” she wrote.

Chutkan has reclaimed control of the election interference case after the Supreme Court tasked her with deciding which acts in Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election are considered “official” versus private acts, the latter of which can be prosecuted.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff has admitted having an affair during his first marriage.

The second gentleman was married to film producer Kerstin Emhoff from 1992 to 2008 and the pair share two children, Ella and Cole. The Daily Mail first reported on Saturday that Emhoff had cheated on Kerstin with his children’s private school teacher.

Later on Saturday, he acknowledged the affair happened. “During my first marriage, Kerstin and I went through some tough times on account of my actions. I took responsibility, and in the years since, we worked through things as a family and have come out stronger on the other side,” Emhoff told CNN in a statement.

Vice President Kamala Harris was less than 20 feet from a “viable” pipe bomb on January 6, according to a new report from Homeland Security’s internal watchdog.

The Office of the Inspector General released its report on Friday detailing the Secret Service’s preparation for, and response to, the events of January 6, 2021. Five people died and hundreds were injured in the Capitol assault, where rioters aimed to prevent the certification of the election for President Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Among the shocking revelations was that Harris, then vice president-elect, was within close range to a “viable” pipe bomb that Secret Security had missed in a security sweep.

A journalist at Fox News Atlanta reported that people began lining up for the 5pm ET Trump rally 12 hours early.

JD Vance told his seven-year-old son to “shut the hell up” when Donald Trump called and asked him to be his running mate.

Vance, 40, recounted the story on the “Full Send Podcast” on Friday. The Ohio senator was publicly announced as Trump’s running mate last month at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, with Trump calling him to break the news just minutes before.

“My son, who is seven, is in the hotel room with me,” Vance told the political podcast, which regularly hosts conservatives. “And he is really into Pokémon cards right now, he’s going through a Pokémon phase…he’s really into it.”

Donald Trump’s and Kamala Harris’s resumes couldn’t be more different. Trump has a total of four years of experience in public office to Harris’s 34.

Unlike Harris, however, Trump has 52 years of business experience under his belt.

Taking on the renovation of the Commodore Hotel and the facade of the Grand Central Terminal in New York City as one of his first construction projects in 1976, Trump launched the Trump Organization and starred in the reality TV show The Apprentice.

He joined the political scene as a neophyte but caught the imagination of the Republican Party base and rode that wave all the way to the White House in the 2016 election.

After four years as president, Trump lost re-election in 2020 amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, Harris has spent her entire career in the public sector, starting out at the district attorney’s office in Alameda County, California in 1990. She joined the San Franciso district attorney’s office eight years later.
