'Manhattan D.A. witch hunt against me has been postponed': Trump
Reuters Videos9 hours agoSTORY: :: Trump expresses relief as a judge delays sentencing for his hush money case :: September 6, 2024 :: Charlotte, North Carolina "Big news today is that the Manhattan D.A. witch hunt against me has been postponed because everyone realizes that there was no case because I did nothing wrong. It's a witch hunt. It's a an attack by my political opponents in Washington, D.C..And comrade Kamala Harris and radical left opponents for purposes of election interference. That's all that was.” “Over the past four years, Kamala Harris and the radical Democrat Party have led a war on law enforcement in America. They're against you so strongly. As a result, families that do everything right and carry this country on their shoulders have watched helplessly as their communities dissolved all around them.” The New York judge in former President Donald Trump's hush money trial delayed his sentencing until after the Nov. 5 election, now planned for Nov. 26, unless the case is dismissed before then. Trump’s lawyers had pushed for delaying the sentencing citing "naked election-interference objectives.” Trump also mocked Harris for her debate preparation, claiming she was struggling to focus due to MAGA supporters outside her quarters. Speaking on migration, Trump blamed Harris and the "radical" Democrat Party for a "crime wave" and a "nation-wrecking border invasion," promising to put a an end to these crises if re-elected to the White House. "As soon as I'm back in the White House, the conquest will end and the great liberation of America will begin," said Trump finalizing his speech.

- 1:58Trump proposes role for Elon Musk on an 'efficiency commission'Reuters VideosSTORY: Donald Trump says he would tap Elon Musk to serve in his administration if he wins November's US presidential election. Trump said Thursday he'd make good on Elon's offer to serve under him - by putting him charge of an efficiency task force. "I will create a Government Efficiency Commission tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms. We need to do it - can't go on the way we are now. And Elon, because he's not very busy, has agreed to head that task force. It would be interesting." It was part of a wide-ranging speech where Trump laid out his economic vision - -he also pledged to slash corporate tax rates for companies that manufacture domestically- -establish "low-tax" zones on federal lands to encourage construction companies to build new homes -and start a sovereign wealth fund. He says the commission would work to eliminate 'fraud and improper payments' within six months but did not provide details on how it would operate. Musk has already responded to Trump saying on X he's eager to serve America if given the chance, and that, quote, "No pay, no title, no recognition is needed." The Tesla CEO mentioned in an August 19 podcast that he had discussed the commission with Trump and was interested in joining it. Sources told Reuters Trump has been discussing the efficiency commission idea with aides for weeks. American politicians have called for similar entities before; Republican President Ronald Reagan established the Grace Commission during his presidency. But Trump’s proposal drew fire from Everett Kelley, president of the American Federation of Government Employees - a union that represents 750,000 federal workers. He accuses Trump and Musk of wanting to gut the nonpartisan civil service and replace fired workers with allies.1 day ago
