Election 2024 updates: Trump campaign claims it was hacked by 'foreign sources'
Trump’s campaign on Saturday said in a statement it had been hacked.
Fresh off a newly minted Democratic ticket, Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, are set to go on tour, hitting several battleground states in five days -- alongside them and mirroring their schedule state by state is Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance.
On Monday, Harris introduced Walz to a fired-up crowd in Philadelphia; Vance was also in Pennsylvania on Monday. The candidates will campaign next in Wisconsin and Michigan.

VP contenders' incomes, finances examined
The major party vice presidential nominees -- Democrat Gov. Tim Walz and Republican Sen JD Vance -- sharply disagree on a range of issues, but the differences in their personal finances are just as stark.
Walz, a former teacher and member of the U.S. House of Representatives, earns about $127,000 in salary per year, retains no stock holdings and relies on a pension account as his primary asset, financial disclosures show.
Vance, a former venture capitalist, brought in roughly $221,000 in 2022 from salary and book royalties, as well as hundreds of thousands in investment income, a U.S. Senate financial disclosure showed. He also held significant wealth in brokerage accounts and dozens of business investments, according to the financial disclosure.

Trump says he has agreed to offer from ABC News to debate Harris
Former President Donald Trump said he has agreed to an offer from ABC News to debate Vice President Kamala Harris on Sept. 10.
He said so during a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago Club on Thursday.
Trump previously said he had been willing to go toe-to-toe with President Joe Biden and agreed to ABC News' first invitation issued in May.
However, after Biden dropped out of the race last month and Harris became the presumptive Democratic nominee, Trump had implied he would not debate Harris on ABC.
Harris has accused Trump of "running scared" and trying to back out of the debate.

Harris, Walz to meet with UAW in Michigan
Harris and Walz will attend a campaign event with United Auto Workers members in Wayne, Michigan, which represents Ford’s Michigan Assembly Plant Thursday afternoon, the campaign said.
Upon arrival, they will be greeted by President Shawn Fain and UAW board members, according to the campaign, before they deliver brief remarks.
The union endorsed Harris for president on July 31 after it had previously endorsed Biden.
This stop is their only campaign stop before heading to Phoenix, Arizona, for a rally on Friday.

House Democratic armed service veterans defend Walz' record
Reps. Jason Crow, D-Colo., Jake Auchincloss, D-Mass., and Mikie Sherrill, D-N.J., who are all veterans, defended Gov. Tim Walz Thursday following attacks on his service by Sen. JD Vance and other Republicans.
Crow said the attacks coming from Republicans are "old and tired."
"They have no options but to try to do one of the worst things you can do in America, that is to attack a veteran for their service," he said adding, "We're not going to put up with it."
Auchincloss said the Trump and Vance ticket doesn't represent the values of veterans.
"I thank JD Vance for his service, but his political career and his political positions are antithetical to the values of veterans, and Donald Trump has a long track record of disparaging veterans," he said.
Sherrill said the Harris-Walz ticket is "fantastic" and one that "veterans can get behind, because we know they will continue to fight to support our veterans with legislation like the PACT Act."
Thursday marked the second anniversary of the PACT Act, which provides health care and benefits for millions of veterans injured by exposure to toxins.
