    Former Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Katy Tur Reports” that Vice President Kamala Harris represented the “mainstream” and added that she was the “American dream.” Tur said, “They’re going to go after her as a progressive Californian, somebody who’s out of touch with the rest of the country. How does she combat that, senator?” Boxer said, “First of all, she’s been vice president for almost four years. She’s represented the whole country. Second of all, I got the same thing when I ran. Oh, you’re too liberal, too short, to this. You vote this way. I used...

    President Joe Biden might have stood down from the 2024 race for the White House but that doesn’t mean first lady Jill Biden is giving up on any of her gilded diplomatic ambitions carried out in his name. Far from it. She will still lead the American delegation at the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris, France, later this week as scheduled. It will repeat her efforts at the last Olympic Games in Tokyo which she also attended solo. Rumors had been swirling that Jill, 73, could pull out or be replaced by Vice President Kamala Harris, now...

    After five decades of inaction, the Food and Drug Administration revoked the authorization of brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food on July 3, 2024. The additive bromine, used to stabilize fruit flavorings in beverages and sodas, has toxic effects and has already been banned in many places, including California, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. What was the agency’s excuse for its 50 years in limbo? The FDA insisted it was “waiting for more safety data.” Right. Consumer advocates called the FDA’s ban on brominated vegetable oil in food “a victory for public health.” Still, digging deeper, it is indisputable...

    FBI declassified a 1999 video of Saudi intelligence agent Omar al-Bayoumi casing the Capitol and other Washington D.C. sites for the 9/11 attack. How, then, did the CIA-FBI 9/11 report conclude in 2005 that Saudi Arabia was not involved in the attack? And why did the FBI maintain — for 20 years, before its recent retraction — that al-Bayoumi wasn’t a Saudi agent? Such willful deception, practiced increasingly by American intelligence, is the subject of former CIA agent J. Michael Waller’s new book Big Intel: How the CIA and FBI Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains ......

    Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is set to offer a “warning to all American voters” in an upcoming book, according to a Tuesday press release. “For the first time, she shares the story of her operation to evacuate Afghan women to safety in the harrowing final days of America’s longest war,” reads the press release from Simon & Schuster announcing the book, “Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty.” “But we also meet the brave women dissidents defying dictators around the world, gain new personal insights about her old adversary Vladimir Putin, and learn the best...

    Protesters at an anti-Israel “encampment” in Harvard Yard removed an American flag from University Hall, the central administration building, and flew a Palestinian flag in its place Saturday before university staff intervened. The Harvard Crimson reported: Pro-Palestine student protesters at the Harvard Yard encampment flew three Palestinian flags from University Hall on Saturday evening. A group of three protesters hoisted the flags over the John Harvard statue in the Yard, where the University sometimes flies the American flag or flags of the countries of visiting foreign dignitaries. As of 6:34 p.m., Harvard University Police officers were calling Harvard Yard Operations...

    The wealthiest one percent in President Joe Biden’s America set a record with a net worth of $44 trillion at the end of the fourth quarter, U.S. Federal Reserve data revealed. Biden casts his administration as opposed to the widening wealth gap, even though a majority of Americans still live paycheck to paycheck, a recent LendingClub study found, raising concerns that so-called “Bidenomics” failed to help average Americans. A majority of voters are “worse off financially” under Biden, up 25 points since he assumed office in 2021, a Fox News poll found Wednesday.

    A majority of Americans now disapprove of Israel’s war against Palestinian militant group Hamas in Gaza, with support dropping from 50 percent in November to 36 percent this month, according to a new Gallup poll. The number who disapprove increased from 45 percent in November to 55 percent in March. About 9 percent of respondents in the latest Gallup poll have no opinion on the issue. But approval of Israel’s war is divided along party lines, with 64 percent of Republicans supporting the military action in Gaza, compared to just 18 percent of Democrats. Still, both Democrats and the GOP...

    This is the chaotic moment a belligerent American Airlines passenger was put in a headlock and dragged out by a fellow flyer before takeoff. The disruptive male passenger was removed from flight 2506 that was set to fly from Tampa International Airport to Philadelphia on Tuesday. During the outburst, which caused a 30-minute delay, the man yelled an anti-Semitic slur at a flight attendant and seemed to threaten another passenger. In a statement, American Airline told DailyMail.com: 'Prior to departure of American Airlines flight 2506 with service from Tampa (TPA) to Philadelphia (PHL), law enforcement was requested to the aircraft...

    CNN — Why doesn’t scandal seem to matter anymore? According to one definition in Merriam-Webster, a scandal is a “circumstance or action that offends propriety or established moral conceptions or disgraces those associated with it.” Yet scandal in American politics doesn’t necessarily lead to disgrace (or at least disqualification) anymore. Former President Donald Trump tested this question more than any other elected official in modern times. As president, Trump experienced more moments that would traditionally be defined as a scandal than almost any other high official in recent memory, arguably surpassing his notorious predecessor, Richard Nixon. What was so notable...

    The $130 billion sent to Ukraine so far for its war against Russia is apparently not actually going to Ukraine, but is really “benefiting American interests,” a spokesperson for Ukraine told Breitbart News. The shock claim was in response to a request for information by Breitbart News on whether or not any American tax dollars had gone specifically to Uman, a city in the war-torn Eastern European nation that is currently seeing a condo built on a Jewish mass grave, as previously reported, in violation of a bilateral agreement with the U.S., and in violation of international law. Breitbart reported...

    Moscow -- A US citizen has been arrested on drug charges in Russia, officials said on Tuesday, a move that comes amid soaring Russia-US tensions over Ukraine. The arrest of Robert Woodland Romanov was reported by the press service of the Moscow courts. It said the Ostankino District Court ruled on Saturday to keep him in custody for two months on charges of preparing to get involved in illegal drug trafficking pending an official investigation. It didn’t offer any details of the accusations. There was no immediate comment from the US Embassy in Moscow. Russian media noted that the name...
