As not only the first female vice president but the first Black female vice president, Kamala Harris is blazing her own path in government. During every vice presidential term, that officeholder takes over the vice president’s residence in Washington, D.C., and redesigns it to fit their personal preferences. As previously reported by theGrio, Harris tapped renowned interior designer and fellow Black woman Sheila Bridges to design her official residence. Recognized for her vibrant and intricately layered design perspective influenced by architectural and historical cues, Bridges combined the home’s traditional look with Harris’ modern aesthetic. Among the many changes made in...

DeSantis for President is selling plain white cotton T-shirts bearing the legend “DeSantis Airways” for $28 apiece. The governor signed an executive order Oct. 12 authorizing the Florida Division of Emergency Management to “carry out logistical, rescue and evacuation operations to keep its residents safe.” Per the DeSantis team, at least 544 Americans have been brought back from Israel via the flights. Kevin Guthrie, executive director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management, estimated to NewsNation Tuesday that the price tag of the initial flight was “right around $4 million

Left-wing Hollywood actress Rosanna Arquette smeared tens of millions of Americans on Thursday, telling her 187k Twitter followers that it is “clear” the R in Republican “stands for Racist.” “Yes,” the Desperately Seeking Susan star began, adding, “It’s clear the R in Republican stands for Racist.”

ABC News’s Claire Shipman filed a report this morning on Good Morning America about Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally, which featured Reverend Walter Fauntroy “We are going to take on the barbarism of war, the decadence of racism, and the scourge of poverty, that the Ku Klux — I meant to say the Tea Party… you all forgive me, but I — you have to use them interchangeably.” On his radio show, Beck slammed the ABC story, comparing it to “Something Goebbels would do.” Rev. Fauntroy, a former non-voting delegate for Washington D.C, was speaking during an appearance at the...

U.S. Sen. John Kerry is trying to make sure hybrid and electric cars aren't too quiet. Kerry is pushing a proposal aimed at helping protect blind pedestrians who rely on their hearing to safely cross streets. The proposal would authorize the U.S. Secretary of Transportation to establish a minimum sound requirement for hybrid and electric vehicles to alert pedestrians to their approach.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., blamed the Bush administration for any lack of oversight leading up to the Gulf oil spill. The Obama administration, on the other hand, is blameless.

Amidst the innumerable excuses we're bound to hear for tonight's Massachusetts election results, credit Keith Olbermann with likely the most loathsome. The Countdown host would explain things away by accusing Brown supporters of . . . racism. [H/t reader Will H.] Olbermann floated his despicable theory to Howard Fineman: "the Republicans and the Tea Partiers will tell you what happens with Scott Brown tonight whether he wins or comes close is a repudiation of Obama policies. And surely one of Obama's policies from the viewpoint of his opponents is it's OK to have this sea-change in American history—to have an...

It is clear and not coincidence that FOX continues to attack and divide our nation along racial lines. We believe our country is beyond this type of attack and call on all Americans to demand that FOX stop its racist coverage.

Tuesday´s debate between Senators McCain and Obama was relative uneventful in my eyes except for McCain´s "That one" statement when referring to his opponent. Now, this may seem insignificant to McCain backers and maybe even to some Obama, but is it insignificant? McCain´s camp has said it was just Senator McCain´s attempt at humor. I was not smiling.
