ICYMI: On Eve of Elections, Environmentalists Condemn Stein, Calling for Her to Drop Out

The Nation: I’m an Environmentalist. That’s Why I Can’t Vote Green. WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, MoveOn Political Action spotlighted environmentalists from all around the world condemning third-party spoiler Jill Stein – calling for her to drop out of the race and cease boosting Donald Trump’s bid for the White House.

‘It Is Freedom Over Communism,’ Trump Supporter Says at NC Rally 

ROCKY MOUNT, N.C.—“We’re running a campaign of solutions to save America, an America which they have virtually destroyed,” former President Donald Trump said of the Biden-Harris administration at a Wednesday afternoon rally here. To elect Vice President Kamala Harris as president “would be to gamble with the lives of millions and millions of people,” Trump said, adding that Harris “would get us into World War III because she is too grossly incompetent to do the job.”   The former president spoke at Rocky Mount Event Center, which holds about 4,000,…
