Joe Biden’s wife had to pull the Democratic presidential nominee away from reporters on the campaign trail to maintain social distancing, but that didn’t prevent one of his signature eyebrow-raising comments at an event later in the afternoon. While speaking to reporters Monday outside of the Biden campaign’s jet, the former vice president was filmed standing closer than the CDC-recommended six feet apart from the press. Biden was asked a question by a reporter when his better half came up behind him and pulled him back a couple of steps. “I’m sorry,” Biden said as he was shuffled backward, regaining...

It never does. Little girls singing and dancing with pure joy at a pop concert one moment, then targeted for death with a bomb designed for maximum pain, suffering and death. Nails, nuts, shrapnel designed to tear into flesh and bone. That didn’t matter. Coworkers and holiday revelers at an office Christmas party in San Bernardino didn’t matter. Moms and dads and their kids celebrating...

Georgia Democrat Stacey Abrams says she has not heard from Joe Biden’s presidential campaign as it starts its vetting process to pick a nominee for vice president. “I have said many times that if called I will answer, but I have not received any calls,” Abrams, who rose to prominence when she narrowly lost Georgia’s gubernatorial race in 2018, said Wednesday night on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.” Abrams, also a former leader in the Georgia state House, has been frequently floated as a possible running mate for Biden, particularly as pressure ramps up for the former vice president...
