The United Auto Workers (UAW) union has thrown its weight behind Vice President Kamala Harris in her quest for the U.S. presidency. This endorsement could potentially enhance her campaign in Michigan, a crucial swing state.
What Happened: As reported by Reuters on Wednesday, the UAW&#8217;s executive board voted to endorse Harris, following their endorsement of President Joe Biden earlier this year. Biden withdrew from the race on July 21.
UAW President Shawn Fain praised Harris&#8217;s track record of supporting the working class and her commitment to combating corporate greed. He mentioned her participation in the picket line with striking auto workers in 2019.
Harris expressed her gratitude for the endorsement on X, stating, &#8220;I am honored to receive the endorsement of the United Auto Workers. From walking picket lines to taking on big banks, I have spent my entire career fighting for unions and working families—and, as President, I will continue to deliver for organized labor.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
According to Fain, Harris is scheduled to rally with UAW members in Detroit on August 7. The endorsement could prove significant, given the large number of UAW members based in Michigan, a key battleground state.

Why It Matters: The UAW&#8217;s endorsement of Harris comes after a series of events that have shaped the union&#8217;s political stance. In January, the UAW had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36771258/joe-biden-gets-united-auto-workers-backing-shawn-fain-says-donald-trump-blamed-the-american-worker">endorsed</a> President Joe Biden praising his support during the union's recent strike against major automakers. 
However, concerns about Biden&#8217;s re-election chances against Donald Trump surfaced in July, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39748499/uaw-president-shawn-fain-worried-about-bidens-re-election-chances-against-trump-report">leading to discussions</a> on the union's potential strategies. Amid these developments, UAW President Fain was also under investigation for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39707474/uaw-president-shawn-fain-probed-for-alleged-demands-to-benefit-his-domestic-partner">alleged demands</a> to benefit his domestic partner.

Kamala Harris Says Proud To Recieve UAW Endorsement: 'Spent Entire Career Fighting For Unions And Working Families'

North Korea has indicated a willingness to re-engage in nuclear discussions with the United States, provided Donald Trump secures a second term in office. This information comes from Ri Il Gyu, a senior North Korean diplomat who defected to South Korea.
What Happened: Ri, a high-ranking North Korean diplomat who recently defected to South Korea from Cuba, disclosed that North Korea is formulating a new negotiation strategy, as reported by Reuters on Saturday. The strategy aims to lift sanctions on North Korea&#8217;s weapons programs, remove its label as a state sponsor of terrorism, and secure economic aid.
Ri&#8217;s remarks represent a significant departure from North Korea&#8217;s previous position, which ruled out dialogue with the U.S. and suggested the possibility of armed conflict. Ri partly blamed the failure of the 2019 Vietnam summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Trump on Kim&#8217;s decision to entrust &#8220;inexperienced, clueless&#8221; military commanders with nuclear diplomacy.
&#8220;Kim Jong Un doesn&#8217;t know much about international relations and diplomacy, or how to make strategic judgment,&#8221; said Ri.
North Korea has enhanced its bargaining power against Washington by strengthening ties with Russia, which has provided assistance with missile technology and economic support. Ri also noted that Kim is open to a summit with Japan, seeking economic aid in exchange for concessions on the issue of Japanese nationals kidnapped by North Korea in the 1970s and 80s.

Why It Matters: This development follows a series of events that have shaped the current situation. Earlier this month, Ri defected from North Korea to South Korea, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39809871/kim-jong-uns-cuba-expert-fled-north-korean-regime-ends-up-in-south-korea">expressing his disillusionment</a> with North Korea&#8217;s political system. Around the same time, former U.S. diplomat Richard Grenell suggested that Trump might renew diplomatic ties with North Korea if re-elected, according to another <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39860142/trump-would-pursue-diplomacy-with-any-nation-if-re-elected-says-former-diplomat-citing-engagement-wi">Benzinga</a> article.
However, North Korea initially dismissed Trump&#8217;s claims of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39925959/kim-jong-un-rejects-donald-trumps-friendship-claims-north-korea-says-we-do-not-care-expresses-nuclea">friendly relationship</a> with Kim and maintained its readiness for any U.S. leader. Furthermore, North Korea&#8217;s recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40004935/after-kim-jong-uns-defense-pact-with-russia-global-economy-could-lose-4-trillion-if-war-erupts-betwe">defense pact</a> with Russia, as reported by Benzinga, has added another layer of complexity to the situation.

Kim Jong Un Reportedly Willing To Resume Nuclear Talks If Trump Returns To White House, Reveals North Korean Diplomat Who Switched Sides

In a recent event at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago, former President Donald Trump made unfounded allegations about Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217; racial identity.
What Happened: Trump falsely insinuated that Harris, who is the first Black woman and Asian American to hold the vice presidency, had only identified as Indian in the past. "I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don't know, is she Indian or is she Black?" Trump questioned during his speech at the convention, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-black-journalists-convention-nabj-1e96aa530e88013ed6f577feaf89ccb6">reported</a> AP News.
Michael Tyler, the communications director for Harris' campaign, condemned Trump&#8217;s comments, stating, "the hostility Donald Trump showed on stage today is the same hostility he has shown throughout his life, throughout his term in office, and throughout his campaign for president as he seeks to regain power."

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who is Black, labeled Trump&#8217;s comments as "repulsive" and stated, "It's insulting and no one has any right to tell someone who they are how they identify."
Trump has a track record of racially charged attacks on his opponents and critics. He gained notoriety in Republican politics by spreading false theories that President Barack Obama, the first Black president of the nation, was not born in the United States.
Why It Matters: Trump's unfounded claims come in the wake of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39947274/trump-takes-aim-at-kamala-harris-in-first-rally-post-bidens-exit-calls-her-a-radical-left-lunatic-vp">series of attacks</a> on Harris, which started after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek re-election. Trump has been targeting Harris on various issues, including her prosecutorial record and her stance on immigration and inflation.
Trump and Harris are likely to face each other in the 2024 presidential election, with polls showing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/40055183/trump-vs-harris-vice-president-leads-2024-election-by-1-point-hits-records-for-net-buzz-net-favo">close race</a> between the two.

Trump Gets Slammed For Falsely Questioning Kamala Harris' Race: 'It's Insulting...'

QQQY

Trading Halt: Halted at 7:50:00 p.m. ET - Trading Halt: Halt News Pending

EVOK

In less than four months, voters will head to the polls to vote between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
A close race is expected between the two candidates, with the potential for swing states and key demographics to play an increasingly important role in the election.
A new election poll shows Harris gaining steam in these key areas.
What Happened: Vice President Harris has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/40070258/trump-vs-harris-election-forecaster-with-9-out-of-10-accurate-predictions-gives-this-candidate-t">been gaining support </a>in new election polls since President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential election race.
A new Morning Consult poll of nationally registered voters showed Harris <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/40055183/trump-vs-harris-vice-president-leads-2024-election-by-1-point-hits-records-for-net-buzz-net-favo">with a one-point lead </a>over Trump.
While the national vote matters, attention could be shifting to the swing states that have been close in past elections and could sway the election results.
A new Bloomberg News/Morning Consult <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2024-07-30/kamala-harris-erases-trump-s-swing-state-lead-in-2024-election-poll">poll </a>of registered voters shows how residents in swing states would vote if the election were held today.
Overall, Harris won the latest swing state poll with 48% support compared to Trump's 47%. Biden trailed Trump by two points in the last swing state poll before dropping out.
Here are the state-by-state results:
<ul>
<li>Arizona: Harris 49%, Trump 47%</li>
<li>Georgia: Harris 47%, Trump 47%</li>
<li>Michigan: Harris 53%, Trump 42%</li>
<li>Nevada: Harris 47%, Trump 45%</li>
<li>North Carolina: Trump 48%, Harris 46%</li>
<li>Pennsylvania: Trump 50%, Harris 46%</li>
<li>Wisconsin: Harris 49%, Trump 47%</li>
</ul>
Harris has now taken the lead away from Trump in Arizona and Nevada which he had once over Biden and she doubled the lead Biden once had in the state of Michigan, according to the report.

</ul>
Why It's Important: While the headline figures are great for Harris and troublesome for Trump and the Republicans, another statistic from the poll could also factor in.
Over one-third of voters polled said they are more likely to vote in the 2024 presidential election now that Biden has dropped out. This could be a positive for the Democrats with some voters likely planning to avoid the election with Biden running once again.
The positives for Trump in the poll are immigration and the economy still ranking as top issues among voters in the swing states with the former president favored to handle both key issues versus Biden previously and now Harris.

Six of the seven swing states were won by Biden in the 2020 election, with Trump winning North Carolina. Five of the seven swing states won by Biden in 2020 flipped from Trump&#8217;s win in 2016.

Harris Vs. Trump: Vice President Has Passed Former President In Swing States, Could Biden Stepping Down Secure Victory In Battleground Territories?

The escalation in Venezuela after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40012327/us-expresses-serious-concern-as-both-venezuelan-president-nicolas-maduro-and-opposition-claim-electi">a disputed election vote</a> could lead to billionaire Elon Musk and the leader of the country fighting.
Here's the latest.
What Happened: In 2023, an ongoing feud between Tesla Inc CEO Musk and Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg led to a challenge to turn the battle<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/03/37759876/musk-vs-zuckerberg-billionaire-battle-could-heat-up-with-meta-platforms-ceo-2-billion-away-"> into a cage fight.</a>
While both parties never met in the cage, Musk has taken on a new fight challenge.
A disputed election in Venezuela that current President Nicolas Maduro claimed victory led to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40003819/elon-musk-calls-venezuela-elections-a-travesty-as-nicolas-maduro-wins-third-term-amid-fraud-allegati">Musk accusing the </a>world leader of "major election fraud."
Maduro did not take kindly to the fraud allegations and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40027649/nicolas-maduro-challenges-elon-musk-as-both-exchange-heated-words-after-venezuela-election-results-s">issued a fight challenge.</a>
"Do you want to fight? Let's do it. Elon Musk, I'm ready. I'm not afraid of you Elon Musk. Let's fight, where you want," Maduro said on national television.
Maduro accused Musk of potentially invading Venezuela based on comments the billionaire made.
On Wednesday, Musk replied to the fight challenge.
"I accept," Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1818683475530334368">tweeted</a>.
A proposed fight between Zuckerberg and Musk gained steam thanks to posts on social media platform X. The role of social media and this past fight idea wasn't lost on Musk Wednesday.
"All three of us enter the ring, only one comes out," Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1818698395646935476">said </a>to a potential fight with Maduro and Zuckerberg.
While X users were quick to say Musk would beat Maduro in a fight, the Tesla CEO gave <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1818700101520703898">props </a>to the Venezuelan leader.
"Maduro is a big guy himself and probably knows how to fight, so this would be a real fight. Zuck is a little fella, so that would be a short fight lol."
Musk also <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1818699112134721953">offered </a>up the potential stakes of the fight in a tweet.
"If I win, he resigns as dictator of Venezuela. If he wins, I give him a free ride to Mars."

</ul>
Why It's Important: Venezuela's election held Sunday saw a reported 51% vote for Maduro and 44% vote for opposition leader Edmundo Gonzalez. Exit polls pointed to a different outcome with Gonzalez receiving 65% and Maduro receiving 31%.
Election results have been contested and residents of Venezuela have been marching in the country in protest with Maduro claiming victory and a third term as president and the continued Socialist rule of the country.
World leaders including Argentine President Javier Milei and U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken are among those who have expressed concern over the election results.
Maduro is now asking the country's top court to certify his victory despite the opposition saying they have proof he lost the election, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-31/maduro-asks-friendly-venezuela-court-to-verify-his-election-win?srnd=phx-latest&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a>. The election "cannot be considered democratic," The Carter Center said after monitoring the election.
The court is controlled by loyalists who have previously issued favorable decisions on issues against the opposition parties, the report said.
Venezuela currently has economic sanctions from the U.S., which will likely continue with the disputed election.
While a fight with Maduro may not happen, Musk recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39947719/elon-musk-says-he-will-fight-mark-zuckerberg-any-place-any-time-any-rules-cage-match-vibes-anyone">threw down a fight challenge </a>to Zuckerberg once again.
"I'll fight Zuckerberg any place, any time, and rules," Musk said in response to the ongoing fight challenge.

In doing so, <a href="https://floridaphoenix.com/2024/07/31/joe-gruters-opposes-desantis-fl-gop-in-supporting-measure-legalizing-adult-cannabis-use/">noted</a> the Florida Phoenix, he is going up against Gov.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Why Is Gruters Doing It?</h1>
Gruters, who is the former Republican Party of Florida Chair, says it's based on conversations with constituents and people involved in the process. 
"To me it's a realization of where we are, where we're at as a society, what people are doing, what's happened with medical marijuana overall, and I think it's just been an evolving decision to which I said, ‘Let's come out and support it. Let's try to help this win and let's get ahead of this to make sure we do it right,&#8217;" he told the Phoenix.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Falling Out With DeSantis</h1>
After Gruters became one of the few GOP members to endorse Trump over DeSantis in the recent Republican primary, the governor proceeded to veto Gruters projects in the fiscal year budget. Things went downhill from there between the two Republicans. 
DeSantis, by the way, is scurrying to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39873861/desantis-backed-group-launches-to-defeat-cannabis-legalization-in-florida-gop-bigwigs-are-all-in">garner support</a> to defeat Amendment 3.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">The Cops Are With DeSantis On This</h1>
Florida's men in blue are lining up behind the governor in his anti-weed crusade.
The Florida Police Chiefs Association (FPCA) became the second law enforcement group to announce its opposition to cannabis legalization, intoning DeSantis' chants that legal weed is a threat to public safety. 
"Among these impacts will be the growth of illegal markets and criminal cartels, impaired driving and traffic fatalities, homelessness, and hospitalization as a result of marijuana use," <a href="https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2024/07/30/a-lower-quality-of-life-for-all-law-enforcement-lines-up-against-legal-pot-in-florida/">said</a> FPCA president Charles Vazquez. &nbsp;
The FPCA's announcement came on the heels of the Florida Sheriffs Association releasing a resolution also detailing its opposition to Amendment 3.
&#8220;The well-being and health of the citizens of Florida are threatened through the legalization and normalization of recreational marijuana,&#8221; FSA president Bill Prummell <a href="https://tallahasseereports.com/2024/07/31/sheriffs-police-chiefs-oppose-pot-initiative/">said in a statement</a> per Tallahassee Reports. He pointed to impaired public health issues, road safety and youth marijuana use.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Slow Down, Say Proponents</h1>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38313915/cannabis-in-florida-the-bellamy-brothers-tell-trulieve-ceo-we-rolled-a-fat-one-when-legalization" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Smart &amp; Safe Florida</a>, the committee leading the Amendment 3 initiative, disputes those arguments.
&#8220;While marijuana can impair driving abilities, the claim that legalization leads to significantly more impaired driving fatalities is not supported by evidence,&#8221; per information on the committee's <a href="https://smartandsafeflorida.com/">website</a>. &#8220;Proper education, enforcement of impaired driving laws, and investment in public safety measures can mitigate any potential increase in marijuana-related traffic accidents.&#8221;
