Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) urged a shift in conversation toward voters’ everyday financial struggles rather than dwelling on unsubstantiated election fraud claims, as President Donald Trump prepared to deliver a primetime address on election integrity. Trump’s speech, scheduled for Thursday night, was expected to include findings from a White House task force on the 2020 election, despite courts and former administration officials concluding no widespread fraud that could have altered the outcome. Republicans like Cassidy and Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), who described looking forward instead of at “conspiracy theories,” called for moving past the issue, while Democrats accused Trump of undermining trust in the electoral system before the midterms. The address arrives amid separate controversies over fatal ICE enforcement errors and rising gas prices linked to U.S. strikes on Iran.
