If somebody breaks into my house, they’re getting shot: Kamala Harris
Michigan: Kamala Harris participated in a star-studded rally hosted by Oprah Winfrey in Michigan, aiming to energise voters ahead of the crucial November 5 election. During the event, which featured appearances from Hollywood stars like Jennifer Lopez and Meryl Streep, Harris discussed key campaign issues, including abortion, the economy, and gun control.
In a light-hearted moment, she stated, “I'm a gun owner too; if somebody breaks into my house, they're getting shot,” before joking about the potential backlash from her staff. The rally was part of Harris's strategy to unify voters against the divisive politics represented by former President Donald Trump.
While Harris gained traction from a recent poll showing her leading in Pennsylvania, the race remains tight nationwide. Trump, in contrast, held a darker event where he criticised Jewish Americans for their voting patterns, suggesting that their support would be critical to his campaign.
As the election nears, both candidates are actively seeking support from key demographics, including unions and various community groups. Harris's campaign faces challenges, particularly in areas with significant Arab-American populations opposed to U.S. policies regarding the Israel-Gaza conflict.

Supreme Court of India YouTube channel hacked, promoting cryptocurrency scams
New Delhi: The YouTube channel of the Supreme Court of India appears to have been hacked, with videos promoting XRP, a cryptocurrency developed by US-based Ripple Labs, currently being displayed. The channel, which streams live hearings of Constitution Bench cases and matters of public interest, recently broadcasted the proceedings of the suo motu case concerning the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital rape and murder.
Hackers have reportedly made earlier videos private, and a live stream titled "Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION" is now visible on the channel. Scams involving the hacking of popular video channels are not uncommon, and Ripple had previously sued YouTube for failing to prevent scammers from impersonating its CEO, Brad Garlinghouse.
According to a report by The Verge, scammers have been creating fake accounts for Ripple and Garlinghouse, often by hacking successful YouTube channels. These hacked channels, with their large subscriber bases, are then used to promote fraudulent XRP schemes, misleading viewers into making payments in exchange for promises of rewards.
Supreme Court officials have confirmed that the channel's hacking is under investigation.
