Key Events Shaping the US Political Landscape

In a bid to galvanize votes, Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz are embarking on a critical campaign tour in Georgia, a state pivotal to this year's election. Their focus is on energizing Black voters, who constitute a significant portion of Georgia's electorate.

Meanwhile, a U.S. appeals court has revived a lawsuit against TikTok involving the death of a 10-year-old girl who took part in a dangerous challenge. The court ruled that federal law does not shield TikTok from claims related to its algorithm recommending harmful content.

Adding to the political fervor, venture capitalists supporting Harris have called for prioritizing policies on women's reproductive rights, climate change, and support for startups. This comes as Harris and Trump prepare for their highly anticipated presidential debate.
