The Latest: Harris and Trump plan rallies at the same Georgia venue

Republican Donald Trump’s campaign has announced that he will travel to Atlanta on Saturday for a rally in the same venue where Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris plans one Tuesday night featuring a performance by hip hop star Megan Thee Stallion.

Dueling ad campaigns by the presidential candidates portray Harris as “fearless,” while an ad from Trump blasts the vice president for problems at the southern U.S. border.

Trump also appears to be backing away from his earlier commitment to debate Harris, questioning the value of a meetup and saying that he “probably” will debate but that he “can also make a case for not doing it” — prompting her campaign to say he’s “scared.”

Senate lawmakers grilled the acting director of the Secret Service about law enforcement lapses in the hours before the attempted assassination of Trump.

And Trump said in an interview Tuesday on radio station WABC that Harris “doesn’t like Jewish people” and appeared to agree with a host who called her Jewish husband, Doug Emhoff, “a crappy Jew.”
