President Trump will stump for GOP Senate nominee Michael Whatley in North Carolina on Wednesday evening, seeking to rally support for the former Republican National Committee chair.

Actor and activist Ashley Judd spoke to CNN about the risks AI poses to the safety of women, specifically how women are portrayed in pornographic images. Judd spoke at the same summit where both Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon raised concerns about the benefits of AI being concentrated among a small number of tech billionaires, while the American public is left to grapple with its risks and pitfalls.
