    VIENNA (AP) — Austria’s top security official said that four people have died — including one assailant — and fifteen people were wounded in a shooting in the heart of Vienna late Monday. Interior Minister Karl Nehammer told reporters Tuesday that two men and a woman have died from their injuries. A suspected attacker, who was carrying an assault rifle and a fake suicide vest, was also shot and killed by police. Nehammer said that initial investigations indicate that the suspect who was killed had sympathized with the Islamic State group. “We experienced an attack last night by at least...

    An effective closing argument in a presidential reelection is one that makes the case based on a record of accomplishments, motivates the base, and persuades independents and undecided voters. Partisans and polling generally agree that presidential elections turn on the economy. People ask themselves, “Am I better off today than I was four years ago?” The answer usually will coincide with their vote. This year, Gallup’s polling has shown that 56 percent of Americans believe they are better off today than they were four years ago, in spite of the pandemic. While this should be great news for President Trump,...

    In 1996, 54% of Californians voted to pass Proposition 209, a measure that banned discrimination or preferential treatment by public colleges or other government agencies on the basis of race, gender or ethnicity, ending all affirmative action practices in the state. placeholder Now, 24 years later, California Democrats have placed Proposition 16 on Tuesday's ballot, a measure to reverse Prop 209 and which would “permit government decision-making policies to consider race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin to address diversity.” In an interview with Fox News, Peter Kirsanow, a commissioner on the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, said that if passed,...

    Wisconsin Democrats do not appear to be hitting their vote-by-mail and in-person early voting goals, an analysis of the early vote by "The Dan O'Donnell Show" has found. Despite a massive push for early voting across the state, the 12 counties won by Democrat Hillary Clinton in 2016 are badly trailing their early vote percentage from four years ago. As of Monday morning, the day after in-person early voting concluded in Wisconsin, the 12 Democrat counties--Ashland, Bayfield, Dane, Douglas, Eau Claire, Green, Iowa, La Crosse, Menominee, Milwaukee, Portage, and Rock--accounted for a total of 743,829 votes; 39.4 percent of the...

    The Taliban are suspected of using a drone to kill at least four security officers in Afghanistan, marking a potentially dangerous upgrade to the insurgents’ arsenal, as violence continues throughout the country while peace talks with the government remain stalled. An attack on a government compound in the northern province of Kunduz yesterday is thought to have been the first use of a weaponised drone by the Islamist group during the 19-year war. One Taliban fighter told The Times that the group had a “fun new weapon” at its disposal.....

During the ad they show a clip of Biden and the voice over says "Will it be a blue wave...," then a clip of President Trump and the voice over says "...or a cold tsunami like last time."
