Kamala Harris' husband's seemingly confirming infidelity rumors ... writing a statement where he doesn't outright deny he cheated on his first wife.

Here's the deal ... reports from conservative media figures have swirled for a while now, claiming Doug Emhoff cheated on his first wife -- Kerstin Emhoff -- with his daughter's nanny, and also got her pregnant.

Daily Mail did some digging and wrote their own exposé ... citing a close friend of the nanny's who they say confirmed the story to them.

California's furry felines will be out in force all weekend at CatCon -- but one person who probably won't be making a cameo is J.D. Vance!

As you know, Donald Trump's Republican VP pick put his foot in his mouth in a recently resurfaced 2021 interview with then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson in which he referred to Kamala Harris and other U.S. leaders as "childless cat ladies," mainly on the Democratic side.

Of course, Vance's statement didn't sit well with Kamala -- the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee -- and other liberals who have blasted the Ohio senator ever since the clip started circulating again.

9:23 AM PT -- Kamala just responded to Trump’s invitation to debate him on Fox News — and it’s an unequivocal no. She also says Trump is running scared because he originally agreed to the ABC debate with whomever the democratic candidate is and now he’s backing out. She ended by claiming that she would be happy to entertain future debates, but only after the ABC showdown.

Donald Trump just told Kamala Harris “I’m in,” agreeing to debate his Democratic presidential rival and all but promising it will be one wild event.

The Republican presidential nominee posted a Friday night message on his Truth Social platform explaining that he wants to meet Kamala on stage in Pennsylvania for a televised debate that would air September 4 on Fox News.

DT requested a live audience unlike in his first debate on CNN with then Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. Speaking of whom, DT threw a jab at the Commander in Chief on Truth Social, calling him by his Trump-given nickname “Sleepy Joe.”

Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe is attempting to deflect some of the blame regarding the Donald Trump assassination attempt ... claiming they weren't told a key piece of information beforehand.

The law enforcement expert addressed the shooting at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania -- which left 1 attendee dead and the former prez injured -- in a new press conference Friday.

The Secret Service has been put on blast for letting the attack happen in the first place ... with former Director Kimberly Cheatle ultimately resigning after a tense testimony before Congress.

Todd Chrisley is praising his daughter, Savannah, for her speech at the Republican National Convention -- one he watched from prison, which he thinks she knocked out of the park.

The reality TV star's defense attorney, Jay Surgent, tells TMZ ... Todd tuned in from FPC Pensacola in Florida and came away pretty damn impressed by his daughter's convention appearance ... where she stepped up to the podium as one of the many guest speakers.

We're told Todd believes Savannah spoke well and was focused, not only talking about her incarcerated parents but also advocating against the way our criminal justice system currently operates, particularly on the federal level.

Donald Trump is raising money for his presidential campaign with fancy dinners, where it costs a fortune for a seat at a table with him, and a fat stack for a photo op.

The Republican nominee is attending a fundraiser tonight in the Hamptons, and it costs $25,000 just to attend ... and $50,000 for a snapshot with the former president.

Trump's also charging supporters $250,000 for a seat at his table ... and if someone wants the distinction of being listed as a host, they're going to need to shell out a cool $500,000 ... this according to Bloomberg.

President Joe Biden is still President for the next 95 days or so ... and he's made it clear he'll make the most of his time left in the Oval Office.

After the release of 3 American citizens from Russian captivity on Thursday, journalists grilled 46 about his motivations behind coordinating the act of diplomacy. As one journalist asked ... was it important for Biden to pull off the deal under his administration -- especially since he ended his reelection bid??

Biden seemed to laugh off the question, as he told reporters he's still got plenty of work to do for the next few months.

Donald Trump is in the hot seat right now, as he's being put to task for his controversial past ... though, he thinks his record is pretty impressive -- comparing himself to one of history's most famous U.S. presidents.

Trump was at the National Association of Black Journalists Annual Convention Wednesday morning in Chicago, where he had a Q&A with 3 journalists ... in front of a packed ballroom of convention attendees.

Right out the gate, Trump was questioned for his seemingly racist rhetoric and prior associations with White Supremacists. 45 did NOT appreciate the line of questioning  ... as he slammed the introduction as "rude" and accused the NABJ of inviting him to speak under false pretenses.

Elon Musk's talking tough once again ... accepting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro's invitation to brawl -- one year after he vowed he'd fight Mark Zuckerberg.

President Maduro called out Musk on national television this morning ... challenging Musk to fisticuffs in a bizarre rant where he told Elon anyone who came up against him "dries up."

You should watch the video for yourself ... but, ultimately Maduro's making it clear -- EM only needs to name a time and place for the brawl, and Maduro will come ready to kick his ass.

Shocking new video filmed by one of the victims at the Donald Trump rally shooting shows just how close Thomas Matthew Crooks was to Trump ... and it's incredible the Secret Service missed him.

The footage, obtained by Fox News, shot from the bleachers behind Trump, shows Crooks moving quickly along the roof of the American Glass Research Building, disappearing and then popping back up ... minutes before squeezing off 8 shots.

It's the first video showing Crooks and Trump in the same frame ... and this new vantage point illustrates just how close the rooftop was to where Trump was on stage.

Donald Trump says he doesn't play the pronoun game -- and as a result, he got asked if he considers himself fluid ... yeah, it's as surreal as it sounds.

Check it out ... the ex-Prez was asked by Fox News host Laura Ingraham about Vice President Kamala Harris' decision to share her pronouns on social media (she/her), and when LI asks what his pronouns are ... DT declared he doesn't want pronouns.

Ingraham seemed to pick up on the fact this is actually a somewhat liberal take -- as it suggests Trump might use they/them pronouns ... and she asked him about that.

J.D. Vance fired off a lighthearted joke about him and a couch -- and considering all the (unfounded) rumors about him and furniture ... you couldn't write a better script.

The vice presidential candidate spoke in Nevada Tuesday at a rally ... and during his remarks, he mentioned his wife of a decade, Usha -- implying she's not big on public speaking.

In fact, Vance says, if he calls her up to the stage -- she'll probably make him sleep on the couch ... an off-the-cuff comment that drew a few chuckles from the crowd, but which had the internet cracking up en masse.

Megan Thee Stallion is riding for Kamala Harris as the Veep eyes a promotion ... bringing the juice to the presidential candidate's big campaign event in Georgia.

The "Hot Girl" rapper performed Tuesday at Kamala's rally at the Georgia State University's Convocation Center in Atlanta ... playing some of her hits.

MTS grabbed the mic and was accompanied by some backup dancers ... they were decked out in blue as she performed "Girls in the Hood" and "Savage."

John Legend has a big gig coming up, Phaedra Parks is making a big comeback and Simone Biles is celebrating another big win ... all this on today's TMZ TV Hot Takes.

First up on "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles have all the details on John's upcoming appearance at the Democratic National Convention.

J.D. Vance is bound to catch flak for his latest resurfaced interview -- as he once again went after childless people ... making a wild pitch on how to combat their "anti-child" POV.

Donald Trump's vice presidential pick sat down for an interview with The Federalist way back in 2021 -- which, of course, is surfacing anew right now -- and he shared his thoughts on folks choosing to not have kids ... and what conservatives can do to change their minds.

As Vance put it ... Republicans need "to go to war against the anti-child ideology that exists in our country," and from the sounds of it -- his words may have been geared toward women ... that's certainly how many are taking it anyway.

A far-right, Islamophobic group has unleashed havoc outside a Southport mosque over in the UK -- not far from the tragic site where 3 children were stabbed to death this week.

English Defense League members have been tossing bottles and bricks outside the religious place of worship Tuesday -- where Muslims go for prayer, mind you -- and violently clashed with police ... with videos of the tense scenes making the rounds online.

As you can see, these guys went to town .... torching a police riot van, with one officer even ending up with a broken nose amid the madness.
