Election 2024 live updates: Trump hits North Carolina; Harris to stump in Georgia
Trump called into Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” this morning before his day of campaigning in North Carolina and again defended his violent comments about Republican former Rep. Liz Cheney earlier this week.
“All I said is, let’s see how she does,” Trump said. “I said, put a gun in her hand and let her go out and let her face the enemy with a gun in her hand.” Trump also called Cheney a “female bully.”
The former president suggested in an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in Arizona on Thursday night that Cheney would not be such “a radical war hawk” if she were sent to fight “with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her.”
“Let’s see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face,” Trump continued. “You know, they’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building.”
On “Fox & Friends” this morning, Trump also addressed the backlash over racist remarks a comedian made about Puerto Rico at the former president’s rally in New York City last weekend. Trump restated his claim that nobody’s done more for the U.S. territory then him, saying that he had no idea who the comedian was and that the coverage of the offensive comments had “stained” the entire evening.
“They made this one comedian telling one little joke early in the show, when nobody had even started going into the arena practically, they made this comedian and they made the whole weekend, and they took out this gorgeous, unbelievable patriotic evening, and they sort of stained it a little bit by a comedian that I have no idea who he is,” Trump said.

ATHENS, Ga. – Designated hitter Daniel Jackson and centerfielder Rylan Lujo combined for nine RBI Sunday, leading fifth-ranked Georgia to a 12-1 win over LSU at Foley Field.
Georgia improved to 41-11 overall, 21-6 in the SEC, while LSU dropped to 29-24 overall and 9-18 in conference play.
The Tigers return to action at 6:30 p.m. CT Thursday when they play host to Florida in Game 1 of a three-game SEC series in Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Thursday’s game will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network and streamed on SEC Network +.
“Georgia won the moments in this series,” said LSU coach Jay Johnson. “They’re going to score, so you’ve got to capitalize against them when you have scoring opportunities on offense.”
Georgia starting pitcher Caden Aoki (8-0) was the winner, limiting LSU to one run on four hits in 5.0 innings with two walks and seven strikeouts.
LSU right-hander Casan Evans (2-3), making his first appearance since April 17 versus Texas A&M, started the game Sunday and was charged with the loss, working 1.2 innings and allowing four runs on four hits with two walks and three strikeouts.
“I thought Casan’s stuff looked great, and that’s good for him from a health standpoint,” Johnson said. “He’s a guy that the more he pitches, the better he is, so there might have been a little bit of rust, but I thought he competed fine.”
Georgia struck for four runs in the bottom of the second inning in an outburst highlighted by Jackson’s two-out, two-run single and an RBI single by second baseman Ryan Black.
The Tigers narrowed the gap to 4-1 in the third when designated hitter Omar Serna Jr. delivered an RBI single.
Georgia extended its lead to 7-1 in the fourth as Jackson launched a two-run homer and centerfielder Lujo lined a run-scoring single.
Lujo unloaded a grand slam in the fifth, giving the Bulldogs an 11-1 advantage.
