Election Day is less than two weeks away, but Donald Trump is laying the groundwork to challenge the election if he comes up short against Vice President Kamala Harris.On Wednesday, NBC News reported that Trump's allies expect that he will quickly declare victory on election night, regardless of whether the election has been called. One Trump ally said Trump would declare victory again if early returns skew more Republican, which is likely to happen again since they won’t include mail-in ballots, just like in 2020.“There is no part of me who does not think that is part of the conversation,” a Trump donor from North Carolina told NBC News. “We have seen him do it before, and if he is up on election night, I think his campaign—maybe smartly—will try it again.”As in 2020, Trump and his allies are spreading the same baseless lies that voting machines are stealing votes from Trump, a lie that cost Fox News $787 million in a defamation suit."Reports from Whitfield County, GA that Dominion machines are flipping votes," far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia wrote in a post on X, with no proof to back up her claim. "This is exactly the kind of fraud we saw in 2020."

Russia helped propagate disinformation about Hurricanes Helene and Milton in order to deepen political divisions in the U.S. and undermine America's support for Ukraine, according to a new analysis.Why it matters: The findings underscore Russia's ability to manipulate political discourse in the U.S. The study noted that Kremlin-backed actors appear to be stepping up their efforts in the final stretch of the U.S. presidential race.Driving the news: The disinformation was spread largely "unchecked" on social media by Russian state media accounts and pro-Kremlin networks, according to the new analysis from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue.The misleading posts advanced several divisive narratives, including using U.S. support for Ukraine to paint the government as prioritizing Ukrainians over Americans.The campaign also sought to portray the Biden administration as incompetent or corrupt, and FEMA as unable to provide adequate assistance because of the government's purported support for immigrants.State of play: While Russian sources helped promote these narratives, they often originated from U.S. domestic sources, including public figures like Elon Musk and former President Trump, the study found.Exploiting narratives already circulating in the U.S. in on par with Russia's strategy of "amplifying divisive domestic issues to weaken public trust in institutions, diminish support for US global engagements and ultimately undermine the stability of liberal democracies," the think tank noted.By tying the FEMA response to Ukraine, Russia aims to paint U.S. support for its adversary as "actively harmful to US citizens."The big picture: FEMA warned earlier this month than an avalanche of mis- and disinformation surrounding the recent hurricanes was impeding federal response efforts.Meteorologists around the country found themselves battling threats and conspiracy theories in the wake of the devastating hurricanes. That was due, in part, to false assertions that the government was controlling the weather, a conspiracy that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) helped spread.Go deeper: Russian disinformation is now hiding in plain sight"Damn un-American": Biden slams Trump for hurricane misinformation

Former President Trump is deep in his dark MAGA era as he delivers an unorthodox closing message in an unprecedented election cycle.Yes, but: While Democrats hammer Trump on his recent vulgar and sometimes violent rhetoric, House Speaker Mike Johnson brushed the comments aside Sunday as typical hyperbole.Here's what you may have missed when newsmakers hit the airwaves this Sunday, October 20.1. Johnson: Trump's crude comment just rally "fun" House Speaker Mike Johnson discusses Trump's crude joke about Arnold Palmer in an Oct. 20 interview with CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and CNN's Jake Tapper clashed Sunday over Trump's recent eyebrow-raising comments.The big picture: Earlier in the campaign cycle, some Republicans urged Trump to stick to the script. But now, they're brushing aside questions about his rhetoric, saying political dialogue should be about policy — even when the former president is speaking publicly about a golf pro's genitalia.The GOP nominee opened his rally Saturday with a long story about famed athlete Arnold Palmer while campaigning in the town where the legendary golfer was born."Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women," Trump said. "This is a guy that was all man.""When he took the showers with other pros, they came out of there. They said, 'Oh my God. That's unbelievable,'" Trump continued.Zoom out: Trump also stirred controversy this week when he characterized Democrats as the "enemy from within" and suggested using the military on Election Day should there be chaos.Later in the week, he doubled down, naming both Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and "the Pelosis" when discussing the "enemy," calling the couple "so sick" and "evil."What he's saying: Johnson first contended that the race "shouldn't be about personalities" and instead be focused on policy.But pressed on Trump's crude words and concerns about his mental acuity, Johnson dismissed apprehension about the former president's stamina, pointing to his lengthy rally speeches. On Trump's off-color story, Johnson said, "He has fun at the rallies; he says things that are off-the-cuff."Johnson also argued Trump's threats against the "enemy" were not directed at his political opponents but rather at "marauding gangs of dangerous, violent people," to which Tapper replied with a clip of Trump naming Schiff and the Pelosis when discussing "the enemy from within."His dismissal sparked a fiery exchange between the two, with Tapper saying, "If a Democratic presidential candidate said that you and your wife were evil, and that the military should be used against you, I would say that's disgusting."The Louisiana Republican again argued Trump was not talking about using the National Guard and the military against Democrats but rather to "keep the peace in our streets." Johnson painted Trump as the "most attack, maligned political figure in U.S. history" and contended voters are willing "to give a little on his ... social media posts and some fun language he uses at rallies."Zoom out: New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R), who endorsed former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley over Trump before she suspended her campaign, told ABC's Martha Raddatz Sunday that while he doesn't "like the profanity" or the "personal attacks," the former president's jabs won't "move the dial.""It's an outrageous statement by Donald Trump — OK, must be a Friday night, right? It's just par for the course," he said, arguing the Harris campaign's efforts to highlight Trump's rhetoric will not sway swing state voters.2. Georgia official denies voter fraud claims Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger speaks during an appearance on CBS News' "Face the Nation" on Oct. 20.With just over two weeks until Election Day, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger denied that there is voter fraud in the state after an incident with a voting machine surfaced last week on social media.Driving the news: Raffensperger confirmed on "Face the Nation" that Whitfield County experienced an issue with a ballot but said user error was to blame."The lady thought she had pressed a certain, you know, selection, and then when she printed out the ballot ... she saw that, and so then she made them aware of it, and it got corrected," he said.Raffensperger cautioned that the situation was "blown out of proportion" by "people that like to use, you know, Twitter and other forms of social media."Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who represents Whitfield County, was among those who shared the story on X.Zoom out: Raffensperger also threw cold water on comments made Saturday by Trump. The former president claimed that it will take at least seven days to calculate results since paper ballots will be used in the election.The Georgia Secretary of State confirmed that all of the state's ballots will be cast via paper, but around 75% of the results will be delivered by 8 pm ET on election night."We will be waiting for is the overseas ballots that come in no later than Friday, and so those will then be the final numbers. And we'll just see if that makes the difference in the total vote totals," he said.Between the lines: Over 1.3 million votes have been cast in Georgia ahead of Election Day on Nov. 5. Those numbers are a state record.North Carolina also set an in-person early voting record on Thursday with over 350,000 ballots cast.3. Musk voter giveaway should be investigated: Shapiro Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro speaks with NBC's Kristen Welker during an Oct. 20 interview on "Meet the Press."Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a former attorney general, called tech mogul Elon Musk's pledge to give money to registered swing state voters who sign a conservative-leaning petition "deeply concerning."Catch up quick: Musk announced Saturday that his super PAC would award $1 million daily to a signee of the petition for the "First and Second Amendments."Musk made his announcement at a town hall in Pennsylvania, where he gave a check to a rally attendee.Earlier this month, Musk said that for each swing state voter an individual refers, that person gets $47. For Pennsylvania voters, the offer grew to $100 this week.Driving the news: "I think there are real questions with how he is spending money in this race, how the dark money is flowing not just into Pennsylvania but apparently now into the pockets of Pennsylvanians," Shapiro said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."Pressed on whether the financial incentive could be illegal, Shapiro replied, "I think it's something that law enforcement could take a look at."Zoom out: Musk gave nearly $75 million in three months to his pro-Trump America PAC, per FEC filings released earlier this month.The world's richest man, who once said he would not donate to campaigns, has funneled tens of millions into re-electing the former president and has become a vocal surrogate for the MAGA movement.More from Axios' Sunday coverage:Lindsey Graham to Republicans backing Harris: "What the hell are you doing?"How Israel decimated Hamas and Hezbollah leadership in three monthsHarris turns 60: How her age compares to past presidents

Like you're really wondering, like, ‘what am I doing here?’”

A second Donald Trump presidency would usher in a new type of class warfare — empowering populists to steamroll mainstream experts on issues such as climate change, economics and public health.Why it matters: This year's devastating hurricane season has exposed the perils of Trump's war on climate experts, who have long warned that human-caused global warming is exacerbating extreme weather.Through warming ocean and air temperatures, climate change makes hurricanes like Helene and Milton more destructive — and more likely to rapidly intensify all the way through landfall.The catastrophic back-to-back storms tore through the Southeast just weeks after climate scientists reported Earth's hottest summer on record.Zoom in: Trump, who is potentially 23 days from winning back the White House, has sought to weaponize the Biden administration's hurricane response while still downplaying the existence of climate change.He's called climate change a "hoax" and a "scam," railed against President Biden's clean energy policies, and urged Big Oil executives to fund his campaign in exchange for him slashing fossil fuel regulations."Remember when they used to say 'global warming?' They don't say that anymore. They say 'climate change' because the planet's actually getting cooler," Trump falsely claimed at a rally last month.Flashback: As president, Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Agreement and publicly disavowed a landmark climate report by his own government — a preview of how he's likely to treat climate experts in a second term. Trump also stunned his advisers by suggesting that national security officials explore the use of nuclear bombs to stop hurricanes from hitting the U.S., as Axios scooped in 2019.The big picture: The MAGA movement's crusade against experts has become fundamental to its anti-establishment identity.Take Trump's populist trade policies: Mainstream economists overwhelmingly oppose his plans for massive tariffs. But the disaffected MAGA base considers that criticism a badge of honor."You say trust the experts, but those same experts for 40 years said that if we shipped our manufacturing base off to China, we'd get cheaper goods," Sen. JD Vance said during last week's VP debate. "They lied about that."Between the lines: Anti-expert sentiment exploded in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, a crisis in which many Americans felt betrayed by health authorities they once trusted.29% of U.S. adults in 2021 expressed a great deal of confidence in medical scientists to act in the best interests of the public, down from 40% in November 2020, according to Pew Research Center.Vaccine skepticism is especially partisan: Just 52% of Republicans believe the COVID vaccine is "very" or "somewhat" safe, compared to 91% of Democrats, according to a Politico/Morning Consult poll last year.Trump has seized on that phenomenon, forging an unusual alliance with anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. grounded in their supporters' mutual distrust of public health experts.What to watch: By reflexively rejecting expert opinions, some pro-Trump Republicans have left themselves vulnerable to conspiracy theories.Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), for example, ignited a feud among House Republicans this week by claiming that the government can control the weather.Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis shot down that conspiracy theory at a press conference Thursday, but then drew a false equivalence to climate change."This is on both sides," DeSantis claimed. "You have some people think government can do this, and others think it's all because of fossil fuels. ... It is hurricane season, you are going to have tropical weather."

Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Georgia-based conspiracy theorist who moonlights as a congresswoman, was at it again on Thursday, posting this semi-cryptic message on X: “Yes they can control the weather. It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done.”The “Jewish space laser” aficionado’s claim about a nebulous “they” controlling the weather came only a few hours after she posted a map purporting to show the damage that Hurricane Helene wrought on predominantly conservative voting areas. Not that it needs saying, but Democratic-leaning areas were ravaged too. As the Associated Press noted on Sept. 30 regarding just one area, “Asheville, [North Carolina,] which was devastated by the storm, is solidly Democratic, as is much of Buncombe County, which surrounds it.”As of Friday afternoon, Helene has claimed over 200 lives.

"It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done."Greene did not elaborate on the ways that "they" can control the weather, or even explain who "they" are.But given her history of promoting conspiracy theories, including when she infamously hypothesized that the Rothschild family was using space lasers to start forest fires in California, many of her followers were quick to pounce with mockery.ALSO READ: Dems fear Mike Johnson has laid the groundwork for a nightmare scenario on Jan. 6, 2025"This is so offensive and untrue," joked comedian and actor Patton Oswalt.

"This ignorance, this lunacy, is why we have a government teetering and lurching. Her stupidity is a disease. She’s not alone either."Anti-Trump attorney George Conway picked up on anti-Semitic currents in Greene's post."Your point is what?" he asked. "That Moses parted the Red Sea? Are you saying he had a space laser?"And Trump biographer Tim O'Brien mocked Greene by reminding her of former President Donald Trump's mishaps in responding to natural disasters."Of course. With a Sharpie or by nuking hurricanes. 'They' should just do that," he joked. — (@) — (@) — (@)

Republican Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana offered up a mealy-mouthed nonapology on Thursday for posting a deeply racist diatribe against Haitian people on his social media account. Reporters followed him to an elevator at the Capitol, where one of them asked Higgins whether or not he “believed those things” he wrote about Haitians in a Wednesday post on X. “Those things” included claiming that Haitian people participate in “eating pets,” practice “vudu,” and come from the “nastiest country in the western hemisphere” before demanding that “All these thugs better get their mind right and their ass out of our country before January 20th.” Higgins claimed he was talking about “Haitian gangs” before saying he listened to the concerns of one congressional “colleague from Florida” and having “prayed about it, but just a few seconds,” he then took the post down.“And I hadn’t even seen it,” Higgins added. “At that point I hadn’t even seen the post. I have still not seen it. Never saw it when it was up, never saw it since it’s been down. I don’t even have Twitter on my phone, ya understand.”

Elon Musk and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Wednesday both took to X to decry a rumor that an explosive device was discovered near the Long Island site where former President Trump is set to hold a rally Wednesday night.Why it matters: The rumor surfaced just days after Trump was targeted in an apparent second assassination attempt and further underscored the security concerns that have permeated the 2024 presidential race.However, the rumor of a bomb threat ultimately turned out to be false.State of play: The rumor circulated among conservative outlets on Wednesday morning.Reporter James Lalino wrote on X that an explosive device had been found in a vehicle along the perimeter area where the Trump rally is slated to take place. The "driver ended up running into the woods," he added.Outlets like the Daily Mail and X account Amuse also picked up the story.Zoom in: "Wow," Musk wrote on X while reposting a story about the bomb threat."THEY WILL NOT STOP UNTIL THEY KILL TRUMP!" Greene posted on X alongside a screenshot of the Daily Mail's bomb threat story.The big picture: Nassau County Police Department Commissioner Patrick Ryder confirmed in a statement Wednesday that "reports of explosives being found at the site are unfounded."An individual who might have been training a bomb detection dog at the site "falsely reported explosives being found," Ryder added. Police detained that person for questioning.Representatives for X and Greene did not immediately respond to Axios' requests for comment.Go deeper: "We live in danger times": Secret Service after Trump apparent assassination attempt
