Now that it is looking increasingly like Vice President Kamala Harris will be the Democratic nominee for 2024, her liberal past has come back to haunt her once more. Before becoming the vice president under President Joe Biden, Harris served as a senator for California. According to data from 2019, she was the most left senator, even to the left of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). Using stats from Govtrack.us for the 2019 report card, Jeremy Redfern, the press secretary for Gov. Ron DeSantis...

In about 48 hours, Vice President Kamala Harris went from No. 2 on the Democratic presidential ticket to the presumptive presidential nominee, after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her. Here, we fact-check some of Harris’ recent speeches — before and after Biden dropped out: Harris repeated the claim that former President Donald Trump “intends to cut Social Security and Medicare,” even though he did not attempt to cut either retirement program when he was president,...

This was like watching a Canadian Medical Assistance...

Body camera footage shared by U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley of Iowa sheds new details on the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump—and raises additional questions. On July 13, a 20-year-old gunman fired several shots from an AR-15-style weapon during Trump's campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The U.S. Secret Service has faced pressure from both sides of the aisle over how the young assailant was able to get a clear shot on Trump, who was grazed on the...

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will address Congress on Wednesday – seeking to shore up American support for his war in Gaza and redirect the attention of a nation that has been preoccupied for weeks by a stream of domestic political issues. Netanyahu’s address to Congress comes at a crucial crossroads for the war. US officials have voiced optimism about the prospects of a deal that could free Hamas-held hostages and bring the conflict to an end. Meanwhile, the...
