Both major presidential candidates are gearing up their campaign efforts. Vice President Kamala Harris is set to participate in a livestream event with Oprah Winfrey in Michigan, titled “Unite for America.”

This two-hour session aims to showcase grassroots support for Harris and highlight various groups backing her campaign.

Whereas former President Donald Trump will address the Israeli-American Council , attending the events with prominent Jewish donors.

He will speak at a “Fighting Anti-Semitism in America” event hosted by Miriam Adelson, a prominent Republican donor and widow of billionaire Sheldon Adelson.

Trump will also address the Israeli-American Council, a nonprofit supported by Adelson and Haim Saban, a notable donor to President Joe Biden .

The council’s national convention comes before the first anniversary of Hamas' October 7 attacks on Israel, which triggered the ongoing Gaza conflict .

In related news, the “Uncommitted” Democratic protest movement announced on Thursday that it would not endorse Harris, but also urged supporters to vote against Trump.

The group, which emerged during the Democratic primaries and opposes the Biden administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war, advocates for a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to U.S. arms transfers to Israel.

Harris’ campaign did not address the group’s decision directly but reiterated her commitment to resolving the Gaza conflict while ensuring Israeli security and addressing Palestinian rights.

Harris will also campaign in Wisconsin and Georgia on Friday, focusing on the case of Amber Thurman, a young mother who died after complications related to an abortion pill.

Harris argues that Thurman's death highlights the consequences of Trump’s judicial appointments and restrictive abortion laws.


Trump is set to hold a rally in North Carolina on Saturday, a crucial battleground state.

The candidates’ campaign activities come in the wake of the Federal Reserve’s unexpected half-point interest rate cut. This significant move could alter the economic landscape just weeks before the election.

Trump criticized the rate cut as indicative of a failing economy, while White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre defended the Fed’s independence and the administration’s respect for its decisions.
