After Joe Biden's horrendous debate performance, current and former aides are saying the quiet part out loud and revealing what the President is like behind the scenes. The White House and campaign blame a 'cold' for Biden's low and, at times, hard-to-understand speaking voice. Others say this is what the President is like on a day-to-day basis now. Former White House deputy director of photography Chandler West wrote in an Instagram story: 'It's time for Joe to go.' 'I know many of these people and how the White House operates,' West added. 'They will say he has a 'cold' or...

Taylor Swift wrapped up her third and final Eras Tour date in Dublin, Ireland, at Aviva Stadium on Sunday, and she debuted The Tortured Poet’s Department’s closing track “Clara Bow” live along with giving it a special dedication to an icon who was also in attendance. “You don’t even know she’s doing it, she’s just become friends with so many female artists just to be a guiding hand,” Swift said before delivering the song on acoustic guitar. “I can’t tell you how rare that is.

Roberta Kaplan, a prominent lawyer best known for ending the ban on gay marriage and her advocacy work for sexual assault victims, is leaving the law firm she formed in 2017. Kaplan’s exit from Kaplan Hecker & Fink comes following reports to the New York Times from those who worked with her that she mistreated lawyers and cultivated an unprofessional office culture. She allegedly insulted employees, made inappropriate comments about their looks, and threatened their careers. Her lawyers denied those allegations and said Kaplan and her firm took allegations of workplace misconduct seriously. “There is nothing more unremarkable than trial...

A Minnesota homeowner was left searching for answers after a neighbor's construction had a devastating effect on a tree on their property that had stood for over a century. One Redditor explained their story and provided a photo of the 150-year-old oak tree that was damaged by their neighbor's carelessness in the r/treelaw subreddit recently. The neighbor began construction and excavated for a "massive, side-by-side duplex they're building." While the user was fine with the trimming of a large branch on their tree, they noted that the neighbor "also excavated out approximately 1/3 of its root system." The destruction of...

A top donor to Joe Biden has slammed three of the president's most trusted aides after the president's horror show at the first debate in Atlanta Thursday night. Tens of millions of Americans saw Biden look weak and raspy on stage at the event with Donald Trump. The Biden family gathered at Camp David this weekend for a summit to discuss their patriarch's political future as he slides further away in the polls. While the family remains united in its 'unequivocal support' for the president - and with troubled son Hunter most insistent he remain in the race - others...

Thousands of people danced, sang and celebrated at Toronto’s Pride Parade on Sunday until the procession was suddenly stopped mid-route, and then cancelled, by a protest. About 30 demonstrators, calling themselves the Coalition Against Pinkwashing, held banners and chanted on Yonge Street, just south of Wellesley Street, three and a half hours after the parade’s 2 p.m. start. Floats and marchers making their way south toward the parade’s finish at Nathan Phillips Square were stranded behind the protesters, who chanted “Free Palestine” and “Pride is a protest.” And 45 minutes after the protest began, Pride Toronto announced the remainder of...

Another Boeing whistleblower has come forward, saying that he witnessed 787 Dreamliner planes being built in a manner that could lead to a "catastrophe down the line." Richard Cuevas was a Strom airplane mechanic who used to work as a contractor for Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems. In a complaint filed by his lawyers to the FAA, Cuevas said Spirit AeroSystems workers were drilling holes into the fasteners of the plane's forward pressure bulkhead, which were bigger than what Boeing had specified. In March, a few months after he reported his findings to Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems, he was fired from...

The former Obama White House senior adviser said the appropriate time to have the discussion would have been last year. “Reality check: @JoeBiden is the nominee of the Democratic Party, nominated by voters in primaries across the country,” Axelrod wrote on the social platform X. “Unless the @POTUS, himself, decides to quit — which he won’t — that issue is settled.” “The discussion that is going on...

The Justice Department has presented Boeing with a plea deal after it accused the airplane manufacturer of violating the terms of a 2021 deferred prosecution agreement that was put in place following two 737 Max crashes in 2018 and 2019. The Justice Department told Boeing it could plead guilty or go to trial, people familiar with the talks confirmed to CBS News. The agreement, which was presented to Boeing on Sunday, would have the company plead guilty to the conspiracy charge it originally faced in 2021. In exchange, Boeing would pay a fine and enter a three-year probationary period, the...
