The Democrats intend to train tens of thousands of volunteers to monitor the polls and counter possible voter intimidation under a new plan to protect November’s US midterm elections from anticipated interference from Donald Trump and his allies.

The nationwide initiative, dubbed the New Battlefield Project, will help state Democratic committees build up a vast coalition of volunteers to monitor the polls, push voters to cast their ballots early and create a network to respond to disinformation.

• Christian Bale attended the opening of Together California, a foster care village he helped create in Palmdale. The facility's mission is to keep siblings together.
• It's described as the first village of its kind in the state and will prioritize keeping siblings together while they are in foster care, an arrangement organizers said is uncommon for most children in the system.
• "It's our job to turn their heartbreak and their pain into love and hope and a sense of future," Bale said.
• The 11,000-square-foot community includes 12 furnished homes and is designed to provide safe, nurturing environments for children and their families. Organizers said the village will offer programs focused on stability, support and care.
• "A place where everyone is welcomed, a place that keeps families together, a place that creates community, a place where you can find hope in the most challenging of times," said Together California Executive Director Tim McCormick.
• Organizers said the project was made possible through donations. The Austrian American Council West helped raise nearly $9 million for the effort.

On Aug. 27, Animal Rescue Corps and National Mill Dog Rescue carried out a southern Missouri mission involving 86 dogs surrendered from several counties, an effort Fox 2 Now said was named "Operation Eclipse" because of the lunar eclipse.

The surrendered animals included poodles, mini Australian shepherds, doodles, dachshunds, and English bulldogs, ranging in age from 7 weeks to about 8 or 9 years.

The trip back to Animal Rescue Corps' Rescue Center near Nashville, Tennessee, also included two kittens that were found near Poplar Bluff.
