Breaking Updates Trump and Harris agree to debate on ABC on September 10 Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are scheduled to debate on ABC on September 10, following an agreement by both candidates. Trump confirmed this date and mentioned additional debates with Fox News on September 4 and NBC on September 25. The specifics, such as the audience and locations, are still being finalized. Trump expressed his anticipation for the debates, emphasizing their importance and criticizing Harris’s competency, while a senior Trump adviser and an ABC source confirmed the debate dates. Harris had previously agreed to the ABC debate, which was initially planned with both Trump and former President Joe Biden before Biden withdrew. Trump's willingness to debate Harris was contingent on her participation in the Fox News debate, which Harris’s campaign has reportedly not accepted. As negotiations with NBC continue, details regarding the debate's rules and moderators will be settled closer to the event.

Despite his recent dominance in the event and bold predictions about overwhelming his competitors, Lyles struggled due to the effects of a COVID-19 diagnosis received just days earlier. Although he managed to compete, he lacked his usual explosive speed, finishing third with a time of 19.70 seconds behind Botswana’s Letsile Tebogo, who won with a time of 19.46 seconds, and American Kenny Bednarek, who secured silver. Lyles, who was seen receiving medical attention after the race and was subsequently wheeled off the track, expressed pride in earning a bronze medal despite the circumstances. His performance was notably affected by his illness, which was evident when he finished second in the preliminary heat and went directly to medical care afterward. Although Lyles was a strong favorite to win the 200 meters, his compromised condition hindered his ability to capitalize on his usual strengths. His participation in the upcoming U.S. men’s 4x100 relay final remains uncertain, as he considers stepping aside to allow his teammates to compete without him.
