Harris, Trump hit final week with conflicting messages, styles
Kamala Harris and Donald Trump make a final push to break their bitter deadlock as polls show the two remain neck-and-neck in the polls as Election Day on November 5 looms.Trump held his much-hyped Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday, with jokes about the "garbage dump" of Puerto Rico and a Black voter carving watermelons for Halloween. After a series of swing-state stops, Harris will give her closing pitch on Tuesday, symbolically at the same spot where Trump rallied supporters to protest his 2020 election loss before the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol.

Fallout continues from Washington Post endorsement block
A top Washington Post editor lashed owner Jeff Bezos for blocking the newspaper's endorsement of Kamala Harris in what he called a "quid pro quo" with Donald Trump. Outgoing editor-at-large and columnist Robert Kagan, who resigned Friday to protest Bezos' action, said he doesn't know the specifics of a deal. But he said Trump's meeting with executives of Bezos' Blue Origin space company on the same day the billionaire Amazon owner blocked the Harris endorsement was "proof of a backroom deal."

Musk violated US immigration laws: Report

South African-born billionaire Elon Musk — recently dubbed "X's biggest promoter of anti-immigrant conspiracies" — worked illegally in the US while building a startup tech company during the 1990s, according to a report in the Washington Post. Musk arrived in Palo Alto, California, in 1995 to pursue a graduate degree at Stanford University but never enrolled and instead began building the company that became Zip2, which sold for about $300 million in 1999. Legal experts told the Post that abandoning his studies meant Musk, now the world's wealthiest person, didn't have a legal basis to remain in the U.S.

Ohtani set to play in World Series' Game 3

Global superstar Shohei Ohtani's participation in Monday's Game 3 of the World Series will be a matter of pain tolerance according to Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who fully expects him to play. It wasn't quite the decisive "He's playing tomorrow" message that Roberts sent ESPN in a text, but the manager sounded confident that Ohtani, who suffered a partially dislocated left shoulder in Game 2 on Saturday, would be good to go. Ohtani was hurt as he attempted to steal second base in the seventh inning of the Dodgers' 4-2 victory.
