Trump Rallies in Iowa for Hinson as Democrats Sue Over Election Rules President Trump campaigned in Sioux City for Republican Senate candidate Ashley Hinson, touting diesel tax relief and $8 billion in farm aid, while Democrats sued the administration over election interference and the Supreme Court allowed New Hampshire voter ID rules. President Donald Trump rallied in Sioux City, Iowa, on Thursday for Republican Senate candidate Ashley Hinson, touting emergency diesel tax relief and a new $8 billion agricultural assistance program in the final 12 days before the Nov. 3 midterm elections. Trump is expected to speak at 6 p.m. ET at a rally aimed at energizing Republican turnout. Hinson has sought to present herself as both an ally of Trump and an independent voice for Iowa, saying she will support the president when it benefits the state but push back when necessary. Her Democratic opponent, state lawmaker Josh Turek, has emphasized bipartisanship while criticizing Trump's tariffs and handling of the war with Iran. At the rally, Trump called for Rep.Trump Demands Ilhan Omar Resign Over False ClaimsIlhan Omar, D-Minn. , to resign from Congress, raising allegations about her identity and marriage history. Trump told supporters he had received breaking news aboard Air Force One alleging Omar used a different name when she was sworn into Congress."It was just revealed just a little while ago that Ilhan Omar, not a person I've ever been particularly fond of, that her name is not Ilhan Omar, the one that she used to get elected and sworn into Congress," Trump said. Trump also revisited longstanding, unsubstantiated allegations that Omar married her brother."She said, not to my knowledge. That's one of the worst answers I think I've ever heard," Trump said."I assume she must immediately have to resign from Congress, right? " he added. Omar had dismissed the allegations as insane during a Wednesday interview, saying she was unaware of any familial relationship with her former husband."Not to my knowledge," Omar told MS NOW's Chris Hayes when asked whether there was any weird kernel of truth to allegations involving her ex-husband, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. The claims, which Trump has repeatedly amplified, have not been substantiated. Omar's interview marked her first since federal agents searched her Washington, D.C. , home on Oct. 12 as part of an ongoing criminal investigation.Trump Touts Diesel Tax Relief During Sioux City RallyThe Justice Department confirmed agents executed a judicially authorized search warrant. Omar has denied wrongdoing and accused Trump of being involved in the investigation. Trump touted his administration's emergency diesel tax relief and the newly announced $8 billion agricultural assistance program during the rally. The Oct. 5 executive order directs the Treasury Department to consider temporarily deferring certain diesel excise tax payments and providing penalty relief for farmers, truckers and other affected taxpayers.The order also directs the IRS to suspend certain penalties associated with using dyed diesel on highways through Dec. 31, while the administration explores options for permanently forgiving deferred taxes."On Monday, I announced the Harvest Fuel Relief Program, providing our farmers with $8 billion to offset diesel costs in the harvest season, including an estimated $400 million is coming to Iowa farmers," Trump said. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders have sued the Trump administration in federal court, accusing the president and his administration of improperly interfering with states' authority to administer elections.Democrats Sue Trump Administration Over Election InterferenceThe lawsuit, filed by Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Democratic campaign committees, challenges federal efforts involving voter-roll reviews and ballots cast by people the government identifies as likely noncitizens. Democrats also filed an effort to stop California from counting ballots from voters included on a federal list. They argue the administration is relying on unsubstantiated claims of widespread noncitizen voting and threatening state election officials.The legal fight comes less than two weeks before Election Day, when control of Congress and numerous state offices will be decided. In Kansas, Republican Sen. Roger Marshall and Democratic nominee Adam Hamilton debated Wednesday. Marshall blamed the war between Russia and Ukraine rather than the U.S. war with Iran for high diesel prices, while Hamilton said voters would not accept that explanation.The issue is particularly important in Kansas, where diesel powers much of the agricultural economy. Marshall also criticized Hamilton's support for portions of the Green New Deal, arguing that renewable-energy policies have prevented the construction of new refineries. Hamilton said he supports parts of the proposal but not the entire package. The debate reflects the broader economic challenge facing Republican candidates as they seek to defend Trump's agenda while voters remain concerned about the cost of everyday goods and energy.Former Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to Mississippi on Thursday to campaign for Democratic Senate nominee Scott Colom as he seeks to unseat Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith. The campaign held a rally at Columbus High School in Colom's hometown, bringing supporters together less than two weeks before Election Day. Colom's wife, Nadia, shared a story about Harris calling her husband during a family dinner, saying he handed her the phone after learning she had experienced a difficult day.Supreme Court Allows New Hampshire Voter ID Rules"Scott could have kept that moment about himself. He could have kept that moment about the race. But he took it to notice me," she told the crowd. The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that New Hampshire can continue enforcing voter ID guidance excluding student IDs ahead of the November midterm elections, handing state officials a victory in an election rules dispute.The justices blocked lower court orders challenging the guidance, citing the principle that federal courts should generally avoid changing election procedures shortly before an election."This Court has repeatedly emphasized that lower federal courts should ordinarily not alter the election rules on the eve of an election," the unsigned order stated. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented, arguing that the lower court had sought to correct misleading guidance rather than change state law.Detroit Metro Times Drops Mike Rogers Over False AccusationsIn Michigan, the Detroit Metro Times declared Wednesday it will no longer seek comment from the campaign of Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers over what it described as his lies and bigoted attacks against his Democratic rival, Abdul El-Sayed."For the first time in @metrotimes history, we're no longer seeking comment from a candidate's campaign because of repeated lies and bigoted attacks," investigative reporter Steve Neavling announced on X. "That candidate is Mike Rogers, whose campaign keeps targeting Abdul El-Sayed's Muslim faith. " Neavling accused Rogers of lying when the Republican asserted that El-Sayed hasn't disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood, pointing to the Democrat telling a town hall audience member, "Sure, yeah, absolutely" earlier in the week when asked to denounce the organization, and for suggesting El-Sayed believes "America deserved 9/11," a statement made by El-Sayed's prominent supporter, left-wing streamer Hasan Piker.Neavling also accused Rogers of having inflated his counterterrorism résumé, specifically about his role in the operation targeting Osama bin Laden. When Metro Times asked about those claims for its Oct. 8 report, Rogers' campaign declined to answer specific questions, instead defending his record and repeating an unfounded assertion.
