Bud Light parent company Anheuser-Busch appears to be trapped between a rock and a hard place as it grapples with polarization over its paid partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Since the controversy emerged on April 1, Bud Light and Anheuser-Busch's main social media accounts have fallen silent, despite major sporting events of the kind the brand typically chimes in on. Aside from an initial terse statement, Anheuser-Busch has also ignored media requests on the issue. Last week, a Missouri distributor canceled an event featuring the famed Budweiser Clydesdales, citing safety concerns. 'They never expected the reaction that they got,'...

Former Vice President Mike Pence said Thursday on FNC’s “The Story” that he believes Republican primary voters will make “better choices” than nominating former President Donald Trump for the 2024 election. Host Martha MacCallum said, “So when the former president announced that he was going to get in the race, you said then that you believed that the American voter would have better choices than him.

Amid rampant corruption in Kiev and as US troops gather at the Ukrainian border, does the Biden administration have an endgame to the conflict?

President Joe Biden received a warm welcome from Irish President Michael Higgins on Thursday. Less so from his dog. As the two leaders made their way into the grounds of the Irish president's residence for a tree planting ceremony, Higgins tried to introduce his American counterpart to Misneach, one of his enormous Bernese Mountain dog. But Misneach — named for the Irish word for 'courage — was having none of it. As Biden moved in to show it some love, the two-year-old did its best to upset U.S.-Irish relations by barking at the president and backing away. Maybe it just...

For months now, the Democrats have been attacking the Republicans, accusing them of attempting to cause the U.S. to default on its financial obligations. Meanwhile, the GOP has insisted they aren’t going to cave on the debt limit but also says they are looking for cuts to address Washington D.C.’s exorbitant spending. That has become the rallying cry that has gotten conservatives behind House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. But, behind the scenes, there appears to be very little progress on actually finding a path forward on this. McCarthy hasn’t spoken with or negotiated with President Joe Biden in months, and the...

Florida's Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis supports the bill and has said he will sign it. It previously passed the Florida state Senate. Earlier Thursday, there was chaos in the Capitol as protesters flooded the building. Demonstrators were seen shouting...
