The producers didn't plan for the biopic about the life of Ronald Reagan to open so close to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, but delays caused by the pandemic and an actors strike led to its release on August 30. It seems easier to portray a historical figure that no one currently living remembers. In the case of "Reagan," the challenge would appear especially challenging. Actor Dennis Quaid, who plays Reagan, is more than up to that challenge. Quaid avoids what could have easily been a temptation to portray Reagan as a caricature. Though he resembles the 40th president...

Pollsters think they’ve learned from their mistakes in 2020. Of course, they thought that last time too. One month since she entered the presidential race, Kamala Harris has a small but clear lead over Donald Trump, if the polls are to be trusted. But after the past two presidential elections, trusting the polls might feel like a very strange thing to do.

The Food and Drug Administration is expected to approve the new Covid vaccine as early as Thursday, according to two sources familiar with the agency’s planning. It’s the third time the vaccines have been updated to match circulating strains since the original series. The shots should be available within days. The FDA and HHS declined to comment on the expected update. The timing of the new vaccines — last year's rollout was in mid-September — is significant, since most of the U.S. is still caught in the summer wave of Covid illness. As of Monday, the Centers for Disease Control...

This is the moment Ukrainian troops destroyed a pontoon bridge in the Kursk region with a HIMARS strike, which could leave thousands of Russian troops stranded. The pontoon crossing in the border region was built by Putin's army after Ukrainian forces destroyed at least three permanent bridges over western Russia's Seim River in recent attacks. Video footage showed drones chasing down trucks and blowing them up. Drones can also be seen crashing into stationary military vehicles, while aerial footage showed the pontoon bridge being decimated. The footage came as Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of trying to strike a nuclear power...

When Oprah Winfrey endorsed Barack Obama in 2008, it was a big deal. Today, the Democratic Party is trying to turn Kamala Harris into Obama 2.0, and naturally, the party thought it was a good idea to un-retire Oprah the billionaire from irrelevancy to give a speech at the Democratic National Convention and gush about the most unpopular vice president in history. Naturally, Trump had an epic response to Oprah's DNC speech endorsing Harris. He shared a handwritten letter to him from Oprah, dated Jan. 11, 2000. Donald, I received the book excerpt. I have to tell you, your comments...

CNN host Chris Wallace reminded viewers Wednesday that just “six months ago” Democrats were considering ways to remove Vice President Kamala Harris from President Joe Biden’s ticket. Before Harris became the Democratic nominee for the upcoming presidential election, approval ratings for the vice president had been dismal, falling as low as 36.3% in November 2023. Wallace noted that while the Democratic National Convention (DNC) was going “fine” as it entered its third night, some delegates and Democratic officials disapproved of Harris staying on the ticket with Biden initially when he was still in the race. “I‘ve been thinking about this...

Soviet Britain and the Future of AmericaIn recent weeks, riots have broken out across the U.K., with rival gangs of native Britons and Muslims clashing.

Every time I’ve ever applied for a new driver’s license while also being involved in the voting process (Arizona, Tennessee, and now Alabama), I’ve registered to vote while I was in the DMV getting my picture taken. Now apparently that process is true for Texas too—which makes this story all the more odd, unsettling, and condemning. From a report out yesterday by Natalia Mittelstadt at Just the News:Texas AG Ken Paxton launches probe of groups allegedly registering non-citizens to voteThe AG’s Election Integrity Unit found that multiple nonprofit organizations have opened booths outside Texas Department of Public Safety Driver License...

After Michigan’s Democrat-led legislature passed sweeping changes to Michigan elections, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is attempting to implement corresponding potentially “illegal” new rules before the November general election, even though the law isn’t set to go into effect until next year. Senate Bill 603 (SB 603), which acts in part to “reorganize, consolidate, and add to the election laws,” as well as “provide for election officials and prescribe the powers and duties of certain state departments, state agencies, and state and local officials and employees,” was signed into law by Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer last month. The bill’s...

NEW YORK -- A U.S. government report expected to stir debate concluded that fluoride in drinking water at twice the recommended limit is linked with lower IQ in children. The report, based on an analysis of previously published research, marks the first time a federal agency has determined — “with moderate confidence” — that there is a link between higher levels of fluoride exposure and lower IQ in kids. While the report was not designed to evaluate the health effects of fluoride in drinking water alone, it is a striking acknowledgment of a potential neurological risk from high levels of...

A trio of cold-hearted thieves stole a woman’s two puppies on a Bronx street earlier this month and the pets still haven’t been reunited with their owner, police said. The three suspects and the 42-year-old victim had gotten into an argument at around 11 a.m. on Aug. 1 on Southern Boulevard near the intersection with Jennings Street, the NYPD said Wednesday. The woman then went inside a building and when she came out with her two pit bull puppies, the three followed her, according to police and sources. A male suspect punched her in the face while his two accomplices...

(The Center Square) – Former Georgia Republican Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan took the stage on the third night of the Democratic National Convention and told his party to do the “right thing” and support Vice President Kamala Harris for president this November. “I am a Republican, but tonight I stand here as an American,” Duncan said to a cheering crowd in Chicago. “An American that cares more about the future of this country than the future of Donald Trump.” Duncan was not the first, nor the last, Republican to speak to the gathered Democrats over the first few days of...

From the floor of the DNC, @ChrisCuomo says the Democrats’ pledge to go after “corporate gouging” is almost laughable when the leaders of corporations are literally looking down on the party from seats that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
