US Election 2024 Live Updates: Harris and Trump to hold campaign in Wisconsin with just 4 days ahead of presidential polls

Former US President Donald Trump once again dismissed the scientific consensus on climate change and mocked the rising sea levels at a campaign rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Saturday. Viewing the concept of global warming as overstated, he argued that nuclear warming, not climate change, poses the most significant threat."I will terminate the green new scam, one of the great scams in history. Remember our country was going to be dead in 12 years, well we came up.They say global warming, they used to call it global warming but now they call it climate change. You know why? Because climate change covers it if it's too cold. We are suffering from climate change. If it's cold, it's good. If it's hot as hell it's good. It used to be Global Warming and that wasn't working because we're actually cooling. So we have that, but you know the biggest warming problem we have is nuclear warming," Trump stated.

In 1980, white men in US who hadn’t been to college earned more than the average American worker. That has changed since. College-educated women earn more today with the US economy now focused less on manufacturing and more on services and knowledge work. Women without a college degree still round off the bottom of the payment pyramid, though. No matter the racial group, men without a college degree “have fallen well below the average full-time worker (women without a degree have long been at the bottom in income, and college-educated men have consistently been at the top)”, says New York Times.

While addressing a rally in Detroit, Michigan, on Friday, Minnesota governor and vice presidential candidate Tim Walz stirred controversy with a remark that quickly went viral.He was discussing the influence of billionaires when he referred to Elon Musk as "that gay guy," a comment that sparked a mix of laughter and criticism both in the crowd and online.

The United States has a unique electoral calendar: citizens vote for the president in November, yet the new leader is inaugurated only in January. While many countries quickly transition to new leadership after elections, the US takes a more deliberate approach, allowing an 11-week period between election day and inauguration. This span, though seemingly lengthy, is shorter than the four-month wait originally permitted under the Constitution for the transfer of power.

US intelligence officials on Friday announced that a video claiming to show voter fraud in Georgia is fabricated and created by 'Russian influence actors,' warning that foreign attempts to undermine election integrity could continue beyond the voting period.

They said that the purported video was a part of "Moscow's broader effort to raise unfounded questions about the integrity of the US election and stoke divisions among Americans."

LeBron James, the NBA's all-time leading scorer and four-time champion, has officially endorsed Kamala Harris for the upcoming US election.

Expressing his support on social media, James highlighted the importance of the future for his family and children.

"What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS," he declared.
