Today’s Headlines: In Venezuela, President Nicolás Maduro declared himself the winner of Sunday's election, despite exit polls showing opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez with a significant lead. The National Electoral Council, controlled by Maduro, reported a narrow victory for him, raising concerns about electoral integrity. The U.S. and other foreign leaders expressed doubts about the results. Meanwhile, President Biden endorsed Supreme Court reforms, including term limits for justices and a new amendment to limit presidential immunity for crimes committed in office. He aims to prevent abuses of power similar to those seen in Venezuela. On the economic front, the U.S. saw a slight drop in inflation, with the Personal Consumption Expenditures Index falling to 2.5%. Vice President Kamala Harris is gaining momentum in her campaign, with significant fundraising and endorsements, including from Republican Mayor John Giles of Mesa, Arizona, and the CEO of the Chief Executive Leadership Institute, who noted a lack of support for Donald Trump among Fortune 500 CEOs. Harris has committed to attending the September 10th presidential debate, regardless of Trump's participation. Lastly, a new bill proposed by Representative Anthony D’Esposito would require House staffers to undergo active shooter training, following an assassination attempt on Donald Trump.
