Former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger set to round out slate of GOP speakers supporting Harris
Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger is in a unique position as a Republican: On Thursday, he is set to deliver a prime-time speech on the final day of the Democratic National Convention, speaking in support of Vice President Kamala Harris before she accepts her party's nomination for president.
Kinzinger, who retired from the House in 2023, has been a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump over the years, and although he describes himself as a "proud conservative," he endorsed then-candidate Joe Biden for reelection in June.

Harris campaign dodges question on why there isn't a Palestinian speaker at DNC
The Harris campaign at a briefing Thursday morning dodged a question from ABC News on why there isn't a Palestinian speaker at the convention and why simply saying former President Donald Trump would be worse for Arab-Americans is not the campaign taking their votes for granted.
"No, we're absolutely not taking their votes for granted," campaign spokesman Michael Tyler said. "I think, as it relates to uncommitted delegates at this convention, we're proud, glad that they are here. We've worked to engage them throughout the convention."
Tyler noted a panel conversation that was held with members of the uncommitted movement and said Harris recently engaged with the movement's leadership in Michigan. He also emphasized that the vice president is working toward a resolution to the Israel-Hamas conflict "with a permanent cease-fire that allows Israel to fully secure itself, that fully continues and make sure that we have full humanitarian aid, but also make sure that Gazans are able to peacefully live and prosper in Gaza."
