Politics and views in the United States.

The war between Israel and Hamas started a year ago, and VP Harris is being pressed on her position. Trump returns to campaign in the place he was shot at. And voter registration deadlines take effect with less than a month until Election Day.

TRANSCRIPT

Welcome to 2024 talks where we're following our democracy in historic times.

Do we have an important alliance between the American people and the Israeli people?

And the answer to that question is yes.

Today marks one year of war between Israel and Hamas.

Despite continued violence, Vice President Kamala Harris says the United States supports Israel but remains committed to getting a ceasefire.

The Hamas-run health ministry said 26 people were just killed in airstrikes on a Gaza mosque and school housing refugees.

More than 40,000 Palestinians have died while conflict is now rising in Lebanon.

Democratic Senator John Fetterman told Fox News Sunday that former President Donald Trump knows the importance of Pennsylvania.

In 2020, I put out a picture of the butler rally from Trump.

And Dallas said it's going to be very close in 2020.

And then it was.

Now, back use in Butler and it's the same thing.

Over the weekend, Trump returned to Butler where three months ago he was shot at during a rally.

He was joined by tech CEO Elon Musk, who called the former president brave.

Former First Lady Melania Trump's clear stance as a supporter of reproductive rights comes as a departure from her husband's changing but generally pro-life positions.

Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard.

Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth.

Several times her husband has changed his position on a national abortion ban, but he called state abortion bans a beautiful thing to watch.

Analysts say Melania may be trying to soften his unpopular positions to appeal to moderate voters.

Polling shows most Americans back the idea of Supreme Court term limits, and many want the court expanded to 15 justices.

And Joe Hines with Stand Up America says with the current justices aging, people should keep the court's controversial opinions and ethics scandals in mind when picking the next president.

You're not just voting for a president.

You're not just voting for Congress.

You're also voting for generations of decisions that will impact on a mental right.

During his first White House press briefing while president, Joe Biden said he's confident next month's election would be free and fair, but said it might not be entirely peaceful.

I don't know whether it will be peaceful.

The things that Trump has said and the things that he said last time when he didn't like the outcome of the election were very dangerous.

Trump has refused to clearly say he would respect the results if he loses.

Today's the last day to register online to vote in next month's election in Arizona, including for people with disabilities.

Rinaldo Fowler with Disability Rights Arizona says they want full access to the electoral process.

Change the culture from the top, from the election administrators down to persons with disabilities down to family members having high expectations for their loved ones to vote.
