Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst. With just over a week before Election Day, Donald Trump is taking the unorthodox step of holding a rally in New York City, a deep blue city in a blue state. It's set to be an hours-long affair with a long list of special guests, including former New York mayor and Trump personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, House Speaker Mike Johnson, and Elon Musk.
And here's Daniel Kurtzleben has more.
Trump supporters poured out of the New York subway Sunday morning, lining up hours ahead of Donald Trump's speech at Madison Square Garden. The rally is a homecoming of sorts for Trump, who grew up in nearby Queens. Trump has done other New York rallies this year as well, including in the Bronx and on Long Island.
NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben reporting. Meanwhile, Vice President Harris is campaigning across the city of Philadelphia today, speaking a short time ago at a youth basketball facility in northwest Philly. NPR's Asma Khalid has more.
Harris began her day with remarks at a black church in west Philly. In this moment, we do face a real question. What kind of country do we want to live in? That's before us right now. What kind of country do we want for our children and our grandchildren? A country of chaos, fear, and hate, or a country of freedom, justice, and compassion?
And the great thing about living in a democracy is we the people have the choice to answer that question.
This is the central part of Harris' closing argument. She's trying to create a clear contrast with Trump, and she'll try to make that case today as she campaigns in Black and Latino neighborhoods across Philly. Asma Khalid, NPR News, Philadelphia.
Egypt has announced a proposal to end the war in Gaza. As NPR's Daniel Estrin reports from Tel Aviv, U.S. and Israeli intelligence chiefs have met to try to jumpstart the ceasefire talks.
