ABC NewsTrump continues to demonize migrants, falsely claims they're 'building an army'
Former President Donald Trump ratcheted up his anti-immigrant rhetoric at a rally in the South Bronx, where he claimed, without evidence, that migrants coming to the U.S. are forming an "army." The comments are part of the dark narrative Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, is advancing on the 2024 campaign trial that what is occurring at the southern border amounts to an invasion. With New York as his backdrop, a city that's reckoned with housing a surge of migrants seeking asylum in recent years, Trump continued to demonize immigrants.

How RFK Jr., Libertarian Party could team up to help his ballot access -- if he reverses a previous refusal
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has previously ruled out joining the Libertarian Party -- but as he prepares to speak at the party's national convention on Friday, there's speculation that they could join forces in a move that could be a boon to Kennedy's ballot-access efforts. If the party's delegates vote for Kennedy, and if Kennedy reconsiders his recalcitrance to join with the party, it would mean he could possibly get on the ballot in enough states to theoretically net the 270 Electoral College votes needed to potentially qualify for the presidential debate state -- and even win the presidency. ABC News has confirmed, through state election offices' websites or spokespeople, that the Libertarian Party has 2024 election ballot access in at least 37 states, including key battlegrounds such as Pennsylvania and Arizona.
