The Fox News host knows that the media — that is, the media outside of his own right-wing channel — is hopelessly in the tank for Vice President Kamala Harris. And he has the evidence to prove it, as he revealed Wednesday afternoon on the show “The ...

Democrats have, until recently, spent much of the 2024 election fretting. And high on the list of reasons was the presence of third-party candidates like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. who they feared would pull more votes from their side. Today, Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t just risen in the polls; she has shifted that third-party dynamic.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democrats’ recently selected vice-presidential nominee, owns no businesses, individual stocks, a home or other real estate — a modest financial position that may put him on par with other former high school teachers but creates a striking contrast with the Republican nominee for vice president, Sen. JD Vance (Ohio). The financial disclosure form Walz filed ...

The leaders of the United States, Qatar and Egypt issued a joint statement Thursday evening calling on Israel and Hamas to return to the negotiating table on Aug. 15 to finalize a cease-fire and hostage release agreement, saying “there is no further time to waste nor excuses from any party for further delay.” “The three of us and our teams ...

Former president Donald Trump related a dramatic story of a near-death experience he said he shared with Willie Brown, a former mayor of San Francisco, during a Thursday news conference. “I know Willie Brown very well,” Trump said. “In fact, I went down in a helicopter with him.

Long before he entered politics, Tim Walz spent years teaching at a high school in southern Minnesota.
