After his marathon two-hour X Spaces chat with Donald Trump on Monday night, Elon Musk extended a similar invitation to Kamala Harris.

The Democratic nominee has been criticized for not doing interviews since she took over from joe Biden as the party's 2024 standard bearer.

Lara Trump is blaming X glitches during her father-in-law’s event Monday on Iranian hackers and a coordinated attack from the ‘deep state.’

The co-chair of the Republican National Committee and wife of Eric Trump accused haters of being given a ‘free pass.’

It comes after a shaky start to the former president’s X event with Elon Musk on Monday even, which started 40 minutes late and was riddled with glitches – similar to the campaign kickoff event the billionaire CEO held for Florida Gov Ron DeSantis last year when he launched his presidential bid.

Speaking with Fox News host Sean Hannity late Monday evening, Lara Trump said:

Iran has rejected calls from the West to refrain against a retaliatory attack against Israel amid fears of a wider war in the Middle East.

Foreign ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said on Tuesday that 'Iran is determined to defend its national security' and claimed requests to de-escalate 'lacked political logic'.

He accused Israel of violating 'sovereignty and territorial integrity' with the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.

The demands to hold back 'amount to open and practical support for the source of international crimes and terrorism in the region', Kanaani added.

His comments came after the U.S. and a number of European countries — the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy — issued a joint statement urging Iran and its allies to 'stand down its ongoing threats of a military attack against Israel'.

The White House warned on Monday that an Iranian attack could come in days, after the U.S. beefed up its military presence in the region by deploying a guided-missile submarine.

Donald Trump’s spokesman is lashing out at Kamala Harris’ campaign for refusing to attribute their attacks to a member of the team.

Steven Cheung called the vice president’s campaign ‘f***ing cowards’ after it put out a statement mocking the ‘glitchy’ X interview with Elon musk and accusing Trump of seeking to serve ‘self-obsessed rich guys.’

The Trump attack dog lamented in an X post:

The vice president’s rapid response X account released a statement Monday evening on Trump’s highly-anticipated live-streamed event with Musk, which followed the former president’s return to the platform earlier in the day after nearly a year.

The event kicked off 40 minutes late and was laden with glitches.

Meanwhile, Democrats were in full fundraising mode during the event, and urged donors to ‘chip in $25 now’ because Musk was trying to take ‘control.’

'Right now, Elon Musk is interviewing Donald Trump live on Twitter (we’re not calling it ‘X’),' the Harris-Walz campaign solicitation message started before asking for money.

It continued:

On Saturday night, Vice President Kamala Harris promised to abolish tax on tips for service workers if she wins the election in November.

Her announcement triggered howls of outrage from Donald Trump who accused her of stealing his idea after he made the same promise in June, when a server in Nevada told him she felt the government was taking too big a share of her tips.

But an exclusive poll for DailyMail.com shows why Harris won't care about charges of theft: The policy is overwhelmingly popular with voters.

Almost two thirds of likely voters say they support the idea.

And it is popular across all demographics and groups. Trump voters, white voters, Hispanic voters, Harris voters, the young and the old, graduates and non-graduates all support the idea of abolishing tax on tips.
