American dream: How much now?
Donald Trump pledged to “bring back the American dream” at the Republican National Convention in July. At last week’s Democratic National Convention, presidential nominee Kamala Harris saluted Americans “who work hard (and) chase their dreams.” But just how big do we need to dream now when it comes to our money?
Georgia election changes ‘a mess’
In the final months before the 2024 presidential election, three Republicans on the Georgia State Election Board are making new election rules that elected officials and experts in both major parties warn could sow misinformation and chaos in November. Some critics worry the changes could be used to alter election results outright − and the board may make more changes before the election. “They are a mess,” Georgia Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told USA TODAY of the board’s efforts to change vote certification requirements so close to Election Day. One of the latest rules, which passed Aug. 19, requires county investigations of even minor discrepancies between the number of ballots cast and the number of voters in a precinct before certifying the results. Critics worry that could cause delays or even failures to certify. “Any effort to delay also is an opportunity to infuse doubt and suspicion and accusations, and we saw that happen in 2020,” Kathy Boockvar, a Democrat who served as Pennsylvania’s Secretary of the Commonwealth from January 2019 to February 2021, told USA TODAY. The board passed that rule just four days after Raffensperger – who famously resisted Donald Trump’s request to “find” nearly 12,000 votes to reverse Joe Biden’s 2020 Georgia victory − issued a news release denouncing its ongoing activity so close to November. “Activists seeking to impose last-minute changes in election procedures outside of the legislative process undermine voter confidence and burden”

Trump faces new indictment
The special counsel in Donald Trump’s federal election interference case secures a new Jan. 6 indictment against the former president aiming to satisfy the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling. The new indictment basically seeks to distinguish Trump’s private actions, which could face charges, from public duties, which would be immune from prosecution.
