DNC trolls Trump, Vance with digital projections on NYC's Trump Tower ahead of debate
CBSN
In a move intended to troll former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, ahead of the first and only vice presidential debate of 2024, the Democratic National Committee on Monday night is digitally projecting various phrases — including Vance previously calling Trump an "idiot" — onto Trump Tower in New York City.
The projections appeared just hours after Vance arrived at Trump Tower on Monday ahead of Tuesday night's vice presidential debate with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz at the CBS Broadcast Center in Manhattan.
"Vance on Trump: 'What an idiot,'" one of the digital projections says, referring to a Vance tweet from October 2016, when he wrote, "My god what an idiot," about Trump — part of a slew of criticisms Vance has since said he regrets.
President Biden on Monday signed into law a defense bill that authorizes significant pay raises for junior enlisted service members, aims to counter China's growing power and boosts overall military spending to $895 billion despite his objections to language stripping coverage of transgender medical treatments for children in military families.
It's Christmas Eve, and Santa Claus is suiting up for his annual voyage from the North Pole to households around the world. In keeping with decades of tradition, the North American Aerospace Command, or NORAD, will once again track Santa's journey to deliver gifts to children before Christmas 2024, using an official map that's updated consistently to show where he is right now.
An anti-money laundering law called the Corporate Transparency Act, or CTA, appears to have been given new life after an appeals court on Monday determined its rules can be enforced as the case proceeds. The law requires small business owners to register with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, or FinCEN, by Jan. 1, or potentially pay fines of up to $10,000.
