    US President Joe Biden has put Vice-President Kamala Harris in charge of controlling migration at the southern border following a big influx of new arrivals. Mr Biden said he was giving her a "tough job" but that she was "the most qualified person to do it". The numbers of people arriving have grown since Mr Biden took office. They include hundreds of unaccompanied minors who are being held in immigration detention facilities. Mr Biden's predecessor, Donald Trump, was widely criticised over his government's treatment of young migrants at the US-Mexico border.

    Liberals on social media seethed in reaction to Democratic lawmakers reportedly admitting behind the scenes that former President Trump isn't a "threat to democracy" as their party loudly claims. New York Times columnist Ezra Klein appeared on The Bulwark Podcast Tuesday and revealed what "top Democrats" have told him off the record as they panic over whether they should support or abandon President Biden on their ticket. "People are weighing this set of things. Like, ‘It would be quite unpleasant for me personally to come out against the president as an elected official in the Democratic Party,' and weighing what...

  • New York v. Trump: Merchan delays sentencing hearing until September

    MSN ^ | 3 July 2024 | Brooke Singman
    Judge Juan Merchan has delayed former President Trump's sentencing in New York v. Trump to September, after requests from the presumptive Republican nominee to do so, and no opposition from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Trump was found guilty in an unprecedented criminal trial last month on all counts of falsifying business records in the first degree, following a six-week trial stemming from Bragg's investigation. Trump on Monday moved to overturn his criminal conviction in the Manhattan case after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a former president has substantial immunity for official acts committed while in office. He also...

    Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. warned Friday that President Biden's poor showing at Thursday night's CNN Presidential Debate calls into question who's really running the country. "He does not seem to be the person who's making the decisions in the White House," RFK Jr. told Lawrence Jones on "Fox & Friends" Friday. "I think our government is being run by anonymous men in lanyards, and it's scary." Biden's performance against former President Trump in the first debate of the 2024 election cycle in Atlanta sent shockwaves across the Democratic Party as voters grow increasingly concerned about Biden's fitness for...

    Gov. Gavin Newsom, D-Calif., proposed slashing budgets regarding public safety, such as prisons and law enforcement, as the state simultaneously grapples with a crippling deficit and doubles down on climate goals relating to equity. The California Democrat's proposed budget, released in May, notes that "difficult decisions" are necessary to address the estimated $27.6 billion deficit, which is projected to continue for years to come. It includes a $97 million cut to trial court operations, $10 million to the Department of Justice's Division of Law Enforcement and more than $80 million to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

    We need to formally start a boycott of New York State. Any company doing business there should not be welcome to our dollars. I'm sorry for the upstate Red warriors and conservatives, but the Leftist majority of this city is ruining the republic. The real threat to democracy is law of the strong man or political party over the citizens.

    NKARA, Turkey (AP) – Old foes Turkey and Greece will test a five-month-old friendship initiative Monday when Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis visits Ankara. The two NATO members, which share decades of mutual animosity, a tense border and disputed waters, agreed to sideline disputes last December. Instead, they´re focusing on trade and energy, repairing cultural ties and a long list of other items placed on the so-called positive agenda. Here’s a look at what the two sides hope to achieve and the disputes that have plagued ties in the past: Mitsotakis is to meet with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan...
