Former Trump senior advisor Christian Whiton has weighed in on why US presidential candidates Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are at odds over their first head-to-head debate. The Harris campaign is pushing for a debate to take place on ABC News but Trump says the ABC debate has been “terminated”. Instead, the former US president is pushing for a Fox News debate with Ms Harris on September 4. “I don't know why Harris is concerned,” Mr Whiton said. “The two debate moderators who are proposed are considered very fair and frankly would throw some hard balls at Donald Trump. “So...

The AR-15 — the deadliest abomination known to man. A gun so terrible it’s killed more people than net neutrality and Trump’s tax cuts combined. And to demonstrate how awful this weapon is, I did something foolish: I tried firing one. And the experience was so horrible I have not stopped crying and soiling myself since. Yes, even as I type this, tears fill my eyes at the remembrance of pulling that trigger and the terrible things that followed. And my pants... my pants are so soaked. How to describe the experience of firing that monstrosity? When I pulled the...

That is why McCallum gave a 40-minute speech to only local Chinese-speaking newspapers in the Asian-dominated town of Markham about why McCallum and the Trudeau Liberals thought Meng Wanzhou, the Huawei CFO had a strong...

WASHINGTON -- A Democratic senator is blocking Associate Attorney General Robert McCallum's nomination to be ambassador to Australia over allegations he improperly influenced the government's lawsuit against the tobacco industry. In a letter to President Bush, Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said it was premature to place McCallum in a new position of trust as long as the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility is conducting an ethics inquiry into the handling of the tobacco case. Any senator may place a hold on an executive branch nominee, an act that can be overcome with 60 votes. The civil racketeering tobacco...

Do we stand with our friends? To war or not to war: That's the moral question that trumps all others By JOHN IBBITSON Saturday, January 11, 2003 – Page A21 The shift in Canada's foreign policy announced by Defence Minister John McCallum this week has raised a fundamental question about the future of our country in its relations with the world, a question each of us must answer for ourselves.
