And now, on this day — this fateful day — we have lost our innocence once again: OVER THE WEEKEND, the team radio channel for, Bubba Wallace, the only Black driver in NASCAR's top racing series, was apparently hijacked by...

Former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley officially kicked off her GOP bid for the White House on Wednesday, telling a packed South Carolina rally that it’s time to move past the “faded names of the past” — a clear reference to Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Haley, a former South Carolina governor, addressed supporters in Charleston just one days after revealing she was throwing her hat in the ring to challenge 76-year-old former President Trump in the 2024 Republican primary in a bid to take on President Biden, 80, who has yet to formally announce a reelection...
