Obama calls Trump 'wannabe king' at Harris event

The Georgia Supreme Court on Tuesday denied an effort from the Republican National Committee to reinstate a series of election rules, including requiring ballots be counted by hand, after they previously were blocked by a lower judge.

The state's high court ruling was unanimous, according to the order.

The lower court judge previously ruled that seven election rules passed by the state's Republican-led Election Board were "unlawful and void." The RNC then appealed, with RNC chairman Michael Whaley in statement saying the judge "exemplified the very worst of judicial activism."

The order from the Georgia Supreme Court on Tuesday said the appeal "will proceed in the ordinary court" once it is docketed.

There is a large showing of early votes in the swing state of Georgia which has seen record early vote turnout since early in-person voting began last week.

As of Tuesday afternoon, more than 1.84 million Georgians, roughly one in four registered voters, have cast their ballot, with over 1.74 million votes cast at early voting polling places across the state according to Georgia's Secretary of State office.

Trump is set to tape an interview for the popular "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast Friday at Rogan’s Austin, Texas, studio, multiple sources told ABC News.

Rogan’s podcast garners a vast amount of viewership each week and ranks as one of the most-listened-to podcast on Spotify.

The interview comes as Trump has been engaging in more long-format media appearances and podcasts and works to appeal to young male voters, a key group of Rogan listeners.

Earlier this cycle, Rogan and Trump got into a back-and-forth spat on social media after Rogan expressed his support for then-candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during on an episode over the summer.

“He's the only one who makes sense to me," Rogan said of Kennedy in an August episode.

"He doesn't attack people. He attacks actions and ideas, but he's much more reasonable and intelligent."

In response, Trump posted on his social media platform that “it will be interesting to see how loudly Joe Rogan gets BOOED the next time he enters the UFC Ring??? MAGA2024.”

Former Rep. Liz Cheney tore into Trump on Tuesday over the Jan. 6, mob attack on the U.S. Capitol and his tariff policies.

Speaking with ABC News' Jonathan Karl, Cheney excoriated Trump as unfit for office and a threat to American democracy for his role in sparking the mob, echoing an argument she's been making on the campaign trail with Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate.

"I believe he's unfit, and he's dangerous, but I made the decision beyond that to endorse Vice President Harris. And it is certainly the case that there are policies on which we disagree, but she is somebody who's devoted her life to public service. She is somebody who, even if you disagree with her, and maybe especially if you disagree with her, I can tell you, she will listen," Cheney, of Wyoming, said at the Detroit Economic Club.

"You all in business, when you think about, what are you looking for in somebody you hire, you're looking for somebody that you can trust, you're looking for somebody who's going to be responsible, who's going to operate in good faith," she told the audience. "You certainly wouldn't hire somebody who was unstable and erratic. And we need to think about this election in those terms."
