U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris acknowledged the challenge of defeating Donald Trump in November but expressed confidence that her new presidential campaign would overcome his "wild lies." While Trump spoke at a bitcoin conference in Tennessee, Harris attended a Massachusetts fundraising event featuring celebrities like James Taylor and Yo-Yo Ma.

"We are the underdogs in this race, but this is a people-powered campaign," she told the audience, with her campaign estimating $1.4 million in funds raised.

Harris addressed Trump's false claims about her record, including the assertion that she supports the legalization of killing newborns due to her strong stance on abortion rights. She challenged Trump to a debate, hoping he would reconsider his decision to skip the scheduled September 10 face-off with Biden.

Trump, 78, spoke at the bitcoin conference, advocating for the U.S. to become a leader in the cryptocurrency industry, despite previously calling it a "scam." He announced plans to resume outdoor rallies following an assassination attempt at a campaign event in Pennsylvania, emphasizing the importance of free speech and public gatherings.

Harris's campaign, which aims to make her the first female president in U.S. history, has gained momentum with support from prominent Democrats, including Joe Biden and Barack and Michelle Obama. Despite the late start, polls indicate a tight race between Harris and Trump.

Supporters like Torianna Parrish greeted Harris upon her arrival in Massachusetts, expressing hope for her campaign. James Taylor introduced Harris at the fundraising event, urging the crowd to support her efforts to lead the country.
