Famous names including Bianca Jagger, Lord Lloyd-Webber, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Princess Michael of Kent, Sir Andras Schiff, Tom Holland, Lady Antonia Fraser and many others appeal to the Vatican to save the Traditional Latin Mass in a letter to the Times tomorrow.

Polling has started to come out following last week’s presidential debate between former President Trump and President Biden, showing some indications of Trump gaining in the aftermath. Anticipation for the debate built up in advance for both candidates, but especially for Biden, who was hoping to use the night to overcome worries that he’s not up to the job of president for four more years. Instead, he at times stumbled over his words, struggled to make clear statements on policy positions and did not present significant energy that many Democrats wanted to see. Although Trump made numerous false statements throughout...

Ahead of former vice-president Joe Biden’s expected 2020 presidential bid, women are speaking out about their personal interactions with him — alleging he physically touched them in ways that made them feel uncomfortable. Last week, the Cut published an essay by Lucy Flores, a former Nevada lieutenant governor nominee, who wrote that Biden smelled her hair and kissed the back of her head at a campaign event in 2014. In the week since, several more women have come forward. Below, here’s a running list of the allegations against Biden. Lucy Flores On March 29, in the aforementioned essay published on...

As the desperate search for a Biden replacement continues amongst Dem insiders and anxious liberals, one possible replacement shines through the dark. In a recent Reuters/Ispos poll which surveyed 1,070 U.S. adults across the country, found that in a match-up between former first lady Michelle Obama and President Trump, Obama would win in a 50-39 margin against the former president. Obama, who has previously said she will not run for president, beat out all other Biden alternatives offered in the poll

President Joe Biden has blamed his poor debate performance last week on jet lag, telling reporters that he "wasn't very smart" for "travelling around the world a couple of times" before the debate. "I didn’t listen to my staff... and then I nearly fell asleep on stage,” he said. Mr Biden, 81, last returned from travel on 15 June, nearly two weeks ahead of the 27 June debate. Mr Biden's remarks come amid intra-party panic ahead of November's election over his mental fitness,

Justice Department officials plan to pursue the criminal cases against Donald Trump past Election Day even if he wins, under the belief that department rules against charging or prosecuting a sitting president would not kick in until Inauguration Day in January, according to people familiar with the discussions. That approach may become more consequential given this week’s Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity, which probably will lead to further delays to Trump’s election interference trial in D.C. and has already affected one of his state cases. Senior law enforcement officials have long viewed the two federal indictments against Trump —...

Hunter Biden, 54, the president’s son, who was recently convicted of three gun-related felonies, is reportedly sitting in on meetings with his father in the West Wing, as the Biden family tries to manage the fallout of last week’s debate. The New York Post reported Tuesday: First son Hunter Biden has been joining West Wing meetings with his father since President Biden returned to the White House on Monday — as the oldest-ever sitting president resists calls from fellow Democrats to step aside, The Post has confirmed.

The Biden administration is telling emergency room doctors they must perform emergency abortions when necessary to save a pregnant woman’s health. That's following last week's 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that failed to settle a legal dispute over whether state abortion bans override the federal law that requires hospitals to stabilize patients. The Health and Human Services agency

She’s served more than three years as first lady, but after President Biden’s stunningly shaky debate performance and subsequent calls for him to step down, Jill Biden — and her potential power — are suddenly being thrust into the spotlight like never before. “It seems to be a make-or-break moment for the president, and I would say that Jill Biden will be there at every turn,” said Katherine Jellison, an expert on first ladies and professor of U.S. women’s and gender history at Ohio University. Biden’s role in her husband’s campaign and decision-making process came into sharper focus last week,...

Some White House staffers have been forced to tiptoe around President Biden when briefing him on certain topics because they want to avoid eliciting his wrath and are “scared s–tless” of him, a new report says. “It’s like, ‘You can’t include that, that will set him off,’ or ‘Put that in, he likes that,’”a senior administration official told Politico, referring to how some of the 81-year-old president’s aides feel they have to walk through a minefield before briefings to avoid him getting angry with them.“It’s a Rorschach test, not a briefing,” the source said. “Because he is not a pleasant...

My buddie says that there are several states that will not allow the dims to put another candidate on their ballot for President. He says, ITS THE LAW. Then I tell him the law is for republicans and suckers because the dims simply get a judge to go around the law. There was an incident I need help remembering. I believe it was a senate election in NJ some years ago, maybe in the 90s. The dim nominee either withdrew or died or something within weeks of the election and the NJ law didn't allow them to put anyone else...

Police departments across the country are getting desperate to hire due to chronic understaffing and elevated burnout. Earlier this month, the Seattle Police Department became the latest major law enforcement agency to open recruiting to illegal aliens, and if hired, these new cops will end up having more gun rights than everyday Americans. Under this new hiring policy, illegal aliens protected from deportation under the Obama-era DACA program will be eligible to apply. Of course, should these aspiring officers pass the training academy, they will be sworn to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and empowered with...

SNIP I was in a room filled with mostly Democratic voters at BusBoys & Poets, a well-known restaurant and progressive hub in the heart of Washington D.C., where I was preparing to give my post-debate analysis. Going into the evening, I admittedly had had relatively low expectations; we have all seen former President Trump and President Biden on a debate stage before, and it was not pretty. I was under no illusion that this bout would be any better. Even though my expectations were low, the performance by both men failed to clear the lowest bar. Former President Trump lied...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. an independent candidate for president, was recently accused of sexual assault, according to a new report from Vanity Fair. On Tuesday, Vanity Fair published a new exclusive story detailing aspects of Kennedy Jr.'s life, the nephew of former President John F. Kennedy, and son of former Attorney-General Robert F. Kennedy Sr. The story details incidents involving Eliza Cooney, who was hired by the Kennedys as a babysitter in 1998. Cooney moved in with Kennedy Jr. and his ex-wife, Mary Richardson shortly after being hired by the family. Cooney told Vanity Fair that she detailed in her...

Cracks are beginning to emerge in President Biden’s backing within the Democratic Party, fueling questions about whether he will remain at the top of the ticket in the final stretch to Election Day. Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas), a nearly 30-year veteran in the House, shattered Biden’s wall of public support among elected lawmakers on Tuesday, becoming the first Democratic member of Congress to publicly call on him to withdraw from the 2024 race. “I represent the heart of a congressional district once represented by Lyndon Johnson. Under very different circumstances, he made the painful decision to withdraw,” Doggett said in...

Rome Takes Historic Step Towards ‘Full Communion’ with Conservative AnglicansThe Vatican is taking historic strides towards achieving “full communion” with Anglicans who do not ordain female priests. It is doing so by recognizing Anglican holy orders and churches, but not requiring them to merge with or convert to Roman Catholicism.“We are scheduled to begin our talks at the Vatican this coming September 26-27,” Bishop Ray Sutton, presiding bishop of the Reformed Episcopal Church in the U.S., announced in an Ecumenical Relations Task Force Report of the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA) College of Bishops.The ACNA bishops, who oversee 128,000...

Joe Biden Says He 'Almost Fell Asleep' on Debate Stage Published at 7:24 PM EDT President Joe Biden on Tuesday offered an "explanation" for his poor debate performance during a fundraiser in McLean, Virginia. While addressing supporters alongside Virginia Representative Don Beyer, the president said that he "wasn't very smart" to travel in the weeks leading up to the first presidential debate against former President Donald Trump. "I decided to travel around the world a couple of times ... shortly before the debate ... I didn't listen to my staff ... and then I almost fell asleep on stage," Biden...

Representative James Clyburn (D-SC) said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that Vice President Kamala Harris should be supported by Democrats “whether it’s in second place or the top of the ticket.” While discussing President Joe Biden’s future after his highly criticized debate performance, Mitchell said, “Congressman, how would you feel if there is a decision for him to step down? If he decides that and he has to decide that, or if the party pressures him to do that, how would you feel if they worked around and try to go around Kamala Harris because of her lack of...

While that path carries risk because Harris’s poll numbers are nearly as lackluster as Biden’s, she is popular enough among Democrats—particularly among women and Black voters—that casting her aside could cause resentment and division within the party.
