From the pulpit, Harris calls out Trump for hurricane misinformation
LA TimesPresident Biden speaks Sunday after a briefing by federal, state and local officials in St. Pete Beach, Fla., during a tour of areas affected by Hurricane Milton. Vice President Kamala Harris used an appearance Sunday before a largely Black church audience in battleground North Carolina to call out former President Trump for spreading misinformation about the government’s hurricane response. He pressured that argument on Fox News Channel, saying the White House’s storm response was “absolutely terrible” and repeating the false claim about FEMA dollars. “We are one United States, one United States.” Harris opened her second day in North Carolina by speaking at the church in Greenville as part of her campaign’s “Souls to the Polls” effort to help turn out Black churchgoers before the Nov. 5 election. And it is not good government to be dependent on a day-to-day existence as opposed to appropriate planning,” Mayorkas said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” House Speaker Mike Johnson said there was plenty of time and that lawmakers would address the funding issue when Congress comes back into session after the Nov. 5 election.
