2024 election updates: Trump, Harris hit more battlegrounds

Former President Donald Trump was briefed by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence earlier Tuesday on Iran's continued assassination threats against him, his campaign said in a new statement, calling the threats "real and specific."

"Intelligence officials have identified that these continued and coordinated attacks have heightened in the past few months, and law enforcement officials across all agencies are working to ensure President Trump is protected and the election is free from interference," Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung wrote in the statement.

"He will let nothing stop him or get in his way to fight for the American people and to Make America Great Again," Cheung continued.

A coordinated campaign office shared by Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign and the Democratic Party in Tempe, Ariz., was damaged by gunfire just after midnight on Monday, the police said Tuesday in a statement to ABC News.

"No one was inside the office during the overnight hours, but this raises concerns about the safety of those who work in that building, as well as those nearby," Tempe Police spokesperson Sgt. Ryan Cook said.

Police said they received calls from those who worked in the office on Monday afternoon and arrived to what they said appeared to be gunshots through the front windows.

Tempe Police said they are analyzing evidence and were taking "additional measures" after the shooting "to ensure the safety of staff and others in the area." A motive for the shooting has not yet been determined and the investigation continues, according to the police.

The same office was shot at just a week prior, on Sept. 16, in an incident the police said appeared to involve a BB or pellet gun. That shooting also happened just after midnight and caused "criminal damage," according to the police.

Harris is scheduled to visit the state on Friday.

In response to the second incident, the Harris campaign offered its thanks to Tempe police.

"Overnight, several shots were fired into our Tempe Democratic Party coordinated campaign office. We are grateful to Tempe Police for coming quickly to the scene and are fortunate no one was present or injured," read a statement from a campaign spokesperson

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson announced Tuesday that he has hired lawyer Jesse Binnall to represent him in what he calls the "outrageous lies" following reporting by CNN that he posted racist and inflammatory comments on a porn site's message board a decade ago.

Binnall is known for his representation of former President Donald Trump, including in legal cases involving Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Binnall still represents Trump in legal matters.

"I am confident that Binnall Law Group will leave no stone unturned and enable us to use every legal means to hold CNN accountable for their lies. In the meantime, my campaign remains laser-focused on the issues at stake in this election," Robinson said in a statement.

Trump’s campaign and political action committees began paying Jesse Binnall’s law firms in November 2020, and they have paid nearly $6 million since.

This includes more than $823,000 paid so far this year by Trump’s Save America PAC and Make America Great Again PAC, which used to be his previous presidential campaign, according to campaign records.
