UNITED STATES

Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 103 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. Trump has held at least six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of August. Harris has done brief, informal press gaggles this week with the media while on the campaign trail, including on Monday when she criticized the tone and rhetoric at Trump’s rally in New York City over the weekend. She gave a speech on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., outlining her path forward for the United States and how she differs from what she calls Trump’s radical, dark vision.Harris also ended her streak of not appearing on Fox News earlier this month, sitting for an interview in Pennsylvania with chief political anchor Bret Baier. She also did a CNN town hall and interviews last week with NBC News, Telemundo and CBS, as well as several podcasts and local news stations this week.KAMALA HARRIS ASSERTS HER PRESIDENCY ‘WILL NOT BE A CONTINUATION’ OF BIDEN’SHarris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits, friendly appearances with “The View,” Stephen Colbert and Howard Stern and other media appearances.But as for when she’ll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day appears like it won’t come, at least while she’s still a candidate.Conservative Radio Libre host Jorge Bonilla feels Harris should do a press conference but said it’s almost “irrelevant” because she continues to get a pass. HARRIS DODGES QUESTION ON LOWERING PRICES BY DESCRIBING ‘MIDDLE-CLASS’ ROOTS: NEIGHBORS ‘PROUD OF THEIR LAWN’”She is highly unlikely to do a press conference because the media have enabled and encouraged her ‘plexiglass basement’ strategy, wherein she preserves the illusion of being out there while remaining wholly inaccessible to the press and therefore unaccountable,” Bonilla told Fox News Digital.Trump has skipped several potential interviews in recent weeks, but he showed up at the annual Al Smith dinner that has historically featured the presidential candidates doing lighthearted roasts. Harris decided not to attend, sending a video message instead.CBS NEWS BREAKS ITS SILENCE OVER EDITING ALLEGATIONS IN ‘60 MINUTES’ INTERVIEW WITH HARRISHarris also did an interview this month on “60 Minutes” that has generated controversy due to the show’s editing choices with an answer she gave to a question about Israel. In a preview of the interview on Oct. 6, CBS aired one portion of her answer but appeared to air a completely different part of it during the actual special on Oct. 7.Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report.

Vice President Kamala Harris was mocked by the Trump campaign and other conservatives online for a “word salad” after a heckler interrupted her speech in Nevada on Thursday night.”You know what?” the vice president said in Reno, Nevada after shouting could be heard from the audience as she spoke. “Let me say something about this.””We are here because we are fighting for a democracy. Fighting for a democracy. And understand the difference here, understand the difference here, moving forward, moving forward, understand the difference here.””What we are looking at is a difference in this election, let’s move forward and see where we are because on the issue, for example, freedom of choice,” Harris continued as the heckling went on. TRUMP SUES CBS NEWS FOR $10 BILLION ALLEGING ‘DECEPTIVE DOCTORING’ OF HARRIS’ ’60 MINUTES’ INTERVIEW”That’s OK,” Harris said as the voices of her supporters drowned out the heckling. “That’s alright. That’s OK.””You know what? Democracy can be complicated, sometimes it’s okay. We’re fighting for the right for people to be heard and not jailed because they speak their mind. We know what’s at stake.”Harris quickly drew criticism from conservative critics on social media. MARK CUBAN TRIES TO ‘CLARIFY’ AFTER COMMENT ON ‘THE VIEW’ WIDELY SEEN AS INSULT TOWARD PRO-TRUMP WOMEN”Kamala spirals after ANOTHER speech is interrupted by protesters,” an account run by the Trump campaign posted on X.”CRACKS UNDER PRESSURE,” Trump adviser Stephen Miller posted on X. “CHOKES EVERY TIME. Not a quality you want in the commander-in-chief.””She is the word salad Queen!” Author Tom Young posted on X.”The gibberish never ends,” Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce posted on X. Fox News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment but did not immediately receive a response. “”Nevada, I am here asking for your vote,” Harris told the crowd. “I am asking for your vote. And here is my pledge to you, and I got your back, as president, I pledge to you to seek common ground and common sense solutions to the challenges you face. I am not looking to score political points.””I am looking to make progress. And I pledge to listen to experts, to listen to those who will be impacted by the decisions I make and to listen to people who disagree with me. Because that’s what real leaders do.”

Former President Trump was joined onstage at a Nevada rally on Thursday night by the family of a marine veteran who was recently murdered in Mexico. Retired Army Lt. Col. Warren Douglas Quets joined Trump on stage in the Las Vegas suburb of Henderson while speaking about his son Nicholas Douglas Quets, a 31-year-old Marine veteran who worked for Pima County, Arizona, on water reclamation projects.The younger Quets was shot and killed along the Caborca-Altar Highway in northern Mexico on Oct. 19, 30 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.”I really wasn’t planning on being here,” Warren Douglas Quets said. “Two weeks ago, I was a completely apolitical actor. Anybody outside my own home wouldn’t have known who I would have voted for. Today. The situation changed for me two weeks ago.”TRUMP SUES CBS NEWS FOR $10 BILLION ALLEGING ‘DECEPTIVE DOCTORING’ OF HARRIS’ ’60 MINUTES’ INTERVIEWHe said Trump and his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, met with him three days after the killing.”So when you wonder about where America really is and what the stories are, you don’t have to wonder anymore. The man next to me and his vice presidential nominee, a current seated senator, both met with me within 36 hours of asking, and both took up the cause,” said Quets.TRUMP MAKES PLAY FOR BLUE-LEANING STATE AS HE BRIEFLY DETOURS FROM THE BATTLEGROUNDS”It is the policy that contributed to my son being killed. It is the policy that’s contributing to the death of other Americans,” he added. “It is the policy that’s contributing to fentanyl coming into the United States. Those are political failures, and we need to end them.”Mexican officials reportedly said that Nicholas Quets didn’t stop at a cartel checkpoint, and a group of armed men followed his pick-up truck and opened fire in a “direct attack.”While reports indicate Mexican authorities made arrests, Quets’ father said he was relying on the FBI to conduct its investigation and wants his son’s killers extradited to the U.S.”What I want is sponsorship of a couple things,” Quets said. “One is change to US code so that if people committed crimes against US persons, especially murder, they are brought back here to face our justice. Number two is legislation that is enacted that takes us someplace closer to a plan in Mexico that’ll institute not only military capability, but also institution building.”Quets told the crowd that Trump had a “tear in his eye” when the two talked about his son and that he believes Trump will “keep” his promise to seek justice if elected.Quets also said that his family attempted to attend a rally with Harris running mate Gov. Tim Walz but were told the venue was full and that they could not meet with Walz.Fox News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment but did not immediately receive a response.”That’s incredible and frankly, to do that, to be able to do that literally just a few days after this horrible event happened is pretty amazing,” Trump told the crowd, who at one point erupted with chants of “Nicholas!””I’ll tell you. We’ll take care of it. We’re going to take care of it. We’re going to get that guy. We’re going to get him. We’re going to get him. They know who he is. Can you believe it? They know who he is. Nothing’s done. Mexico is going to give them to us. Mexico is going to give them to us. They have to. They have to. It’s going to be real easy. When I’m president, we’re going to put the drug smugglers and human traffickers. We’re going to put them right out of business. They’re killing hundreds of thousands of people in our country.”Fox News Digital’s Louis Casiano contributed to this report

So, what do you do when somebody calls you garbage? Of course it matters if it’s from someone whose opinion you value, like your spouse or your relative or that Chinese lap dancer I met in Croatia. But what if it’s coming from this guy? I mean, this guy thinks you’re garbage. The guy who didn’t even acknowledge he had a grandchild because she came from the wrong side of the tracks. To him, she was garbage, which kind of makes him garbage. And yet, Joe called Trump supporters “garbage.” And the next day, Trump showed up for a campaign event asking the media one question: how do you like my garbage truck? VIDEO OF TRUMP: How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden. Joe Biden should be ashamed of himself if he knows what he’s even doing. I hope you enjoyed this garbage truck. We enjoy it. So Joe calls Trump supporters “garbage,” Trump shows up for a campaign event in a garbage truck. I wonder what would happen if Biden had called them d****. Would Trump have showed up in this? You know he would. So why does this moment matter? Well, first, the same media that went insane over a comedian’s joke about a trash crisis in a U.S. territory now views Biden calling half the country “garbage” a hoax. TRUMP CALLS FOR SUPPORTERS TO ‘FORGIVE’ BIDEN IN SHOW OF UNITY AFTER PRESIDENT CALLS SUPPORTERS ‘GARBAGE’MSNB’S JOE SCARBOROUGH: The very same news media that ignored all the times Donald Trump has called American citizens and American voters scum and garbage actually tried to turn Joe Biden’s use of the word garbage into a controversial news story today. CBS EVENING NEWS HIT: He landed in Green Bay just a short time ago and then pulled this campaign stunt, speaking to reporters from a garbage truck. Proof that he and his supporters are giving no grace to a gaffe by President Biden, where he and his explanation inadvertently called Trump supporters “garbage.” You see that? “Inadvertently.” Like that was inadvertent. Like when I inadvertently landed on that candlestick. But sure, the garbage line could be misconstrued, but do we owe them that grace, as Norrah suggests? Hell, no. After all, Biden rode in on the most divisive lie ever — the fine people hoax, which was thoroughly debunked. Worse, it was the tent pole hoax that initiated the Trump is Hitler narrative that they’ve been pushing ever since. It was divisive, destructive, and even when they knew it was false, they kept at it. So forgive me if I don’t give a f*** if Biden just got “fine people” hoaxed. What’s good for the goose is good for the slander. So while Joe’s biting babies, Trump is chewing up Kamala’s campaign like a toddler dressed as a Big Mac. But there’s a bigger problem. Whether you’re called “irredeemable,” “deplorable” or “garbage,” the rot is coming from the top and it’s undermining the fabric of the social contract. It’s not team sport politics. I got no problems with tribes, allegiances, clubs, even cults. Hell, I had Scientologists as neighbors and they were always willing to invite me over for a threesome. Because there was always a bedrock premise underneath it. It’s the cheesiest phrase ever. Love thy neighbor. It’s corny because we get it wrong. When we hear “love thy neighbor,” we think of Ned Flanders offering a hi-diddly-ho neighborino to Homer. But “love thy neighbor” doesn’t matter when things are good only, only when it’s bad. And if Kamala wins, you both may have to fend off roving gangs of transgendered Venezuelans with student loan debt. That societal agreement is no different than the First or the Second Amendment. They don’t exist for hello and goodbye. It’s for bad words and bad hombres, which means no matter who you root for, you’re still neighbors. If you’re a Yankees fan, you live next to a Red Sox fan, don’t sit near each at a game. Actually, you may both want to avoid both those cities. But you can still borrow the leaf blower, but then return the favor by leaving your blinds open when you undress. But “love thy neighbor” became amoral once radicals made the political personal. In the 60s, the left’s most heralded voices declared that every relationship is one of power —  between boss and worker, husband and wife, white and Black, even me and my pool boy. I keep telling him someday I’ll get a pool. Suddenly the quality of connection turns vertical. It’s no longer we’re in this together, it’s now who’s on top. They changed “love thy neighbor” into love thy neighbor unless we disagree. The relationship is transactional, but not based on neighborly stuff. But now your neighbor won’t talk to you if you’re voting for Trump. Now I know, do you really want a jerk like that in your life anyways? But that’s what calling half the country Nazi garbage gets you. You end up in a place where it’s harder and harder to return to loving one’s neighbor when the media and their team calls them trash. My advice? Get your lawn tools back before Tuesday.
