**Harris' Campaign Intensifies Push Against Trump as Election Nears**

Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign is ramping up its efforts to portray Donald Trump as a significant threat to democracy in the final month before the November 5 election. This strategic move arises from concerns over Trump's persistent false claims regarding the 2020 election, his actions on January 6, 2021, and indications that he may not accept the results of the upcoming election unless he wins.

During this week’s vice presidential debate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz challenged Ohio Senator JD Vance by questioning his stance on whether Trump lost the 2020 election, putting Vance in a difficult position. This moment underscores the campaign’s method of leveraging debates to highlight Trump's perceived unfitness for office.

In addition, Harris' campaign has enlisted the help of various GOP surrogates, including some former Trump staffers, to solidify their message that Trump poses a risk to the republic. Further amplifying their efforts, former President Barack Obama is set to join the campaign trail in support of Harris next week.

Contrastingly, Trump's campaign continues to forward different narratives. Trump’s spokesperson Karoline Leavitt announced his planned appearance in Butler, Pennsylvania, remarking on an alleged assassination attempt three months ago. Despite his indictment related to attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, Trump maintains that he won the election four years ago, a claim that lacks supporting evidence.

Election law experts grow increasingly concerned that Trump is preparing to dispute the fairness of the November election should he lose. As part of her campaign outreach, Vice President Kamala Harris will appear on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast next week, according to a campaign spokesperson who confirmed the engagement to Axios.

Amidst these political maneuvers, another contentious narrative has emerged regarding monthly job figures. Contrary to claims by some public figures and social media commentators suggesting these numbers are "fake," updates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics reflect adjustments based on new economic data, underscoring the routine process of data revision in economic reporting.
