Ex-President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris met for their first presidential debate—and Trump unleashed a barrage of lies and misleading claims.
Trump spent much of Tuesday’s debate lying about his position on abortion, repeatedly spreading conspiracy theories about Democrats executing infants, and downplaying the very real consequences of the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
The vice president has said that she will call on Congress to pass a federal ban on price gouging and give the Federal Trade Commission more authority to prevent consolidation in the food industry.

Harris has proposed expanding a tax deduction for costs that are incurred while starting a business, creating a new fund that would allow the country’s smallest banks to cover the interest accrued on loans to new businesses, and more.
After years of a worsening housing crisis in Iowa, Kamala Harris’ proposals seek to create three million homes by 2028, provide down payment assistance to first-time home buyers, and crack down on price fixing among corporate landlords.

FTC spokesperson Victoria Graham said that the decision “does not prevent the FTC from addressing noncompetes through case-by-case enforcement actions” and said that the agency is “seriously considering” appealing the Texas court’s decision.
This new indictment "reflects the government's efforts to respect and implement the Supreme Court's holdings,” after the court ruled last month that former presidents have sweeping legal protections from charges for alleged acts that they committed while in office.
In the letter, the former staffers “jointly declared” that they’ll be voting for the Harris-Walz ticket in November’s election, and condemned Trump’s policies, as well as Project 2025.
