ut she has never offered a single shred of evidence to prove she did. This wouldn’t matter much if she didn’t make it the cornerstone of her professional life, a claim she repeatedly made in an attempt to identify with voters who otherwise likely wouldn’t be able to relate to a stuffy, rich kid who never had to worry about money and only ever worked for government after getting her start in politics through an appointment by her boyfriend. She’s never told a story about her summer at McDonald’s, never explained why she allegedly worked in a McDonald’s in California...

U.S. — After skeptics questioned Kamala Harris's claim that she once worked at Mcdonald's, researchers have found evidence of her employment - and rapid promotion to shift manager - after a sordid affair with Mayor McCheese. "It's now clear how Kamala was able to rise through the ranks from a lowly crew member at the fry station to running the entire restaurant in spite of her glaring incompetence," said Journalist Chet Cruggs, who broke the story. "This seems to be Harris's modus operandi at every place she has worked." Mayor McCheese, the Mayor of McDonaldland who has an enormous cheeseburger...

My stance on the Second Amendment is simple: I’m not going to take anyone’s guns away. I believe in the Constitution. But Americans need to work together to figure out why we have mass shootings every 21 hours. Something changed around the time of the Columbine shootings in 1999, and it wasn’t the number of guns in America. The National Institutes of Health refuses to investigate the mystery; in fact, Congress prohibits the NIH from researching the cause of mass shootings. Under my administration, that rule ends — and our kids’ safety becomes a top priority.

Donald Trump accused Kamala Harris of lying about working at McDonald's - a claim that has sparked endless speculation. *** 'She also said, "I worked at McDonald's.'' Turned out she didn't work at McDonalds," the former president mentioned to the audience. 'Did anyone see that?' he continued. 'After an exhaustive study that took about 20 minutes, they found out she never worked there. In April, Harris appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show, where she was asked if she worked at the fast food restaurant. 'I did. Yes, I did work at McDonald's,' the vice president said. 'When I was at...

in a section that asked her to list every position she held in the last 10 years. McDonald’s is absent. McDonald's has not responded on confirming her employment. As the Free Beacon notes, that's a change from how fast-food chains have previously acknowledged presidential candidates who once worked for them.

McDonald's reported a surprise fall in sales in the April to June quarter - as customers cut down on trips to the fast food giant. Americans placed fewer orders than a year ago - meaning sales were down by nearly one per cent. Globally, sales fell by a similar amount. McDonald's saw fewer customers, but it said those who came spent more because of price increases. It was the first sales decline since 2020 when the pandemic shuttered stores and millions stayed home. Profits also slumped by 12 percent. Big price rises - including fan favorites like a Big Mac...

McDonald's has given up on its bid to sell meat-free beef burger in America. US president Joe Erlinger has said the McPlant has been ditched because customers did not want fake meat. The chain had been testing the McPlant at several hundred restaurants in California and Texas since trials began in late 2021. Developed with Beyond Meat, it was made from pea and rice proteins. While it has flopped in the US, it has been a hit in the UK, Germany, Holland and Portugal. But there is little chance of a return to America. McDonald's is now shifting its focus...

McDonald’s declared that its experiment with plant-based burgers was a disaster. Joe Erlinger, who heads US operations for the Chicago-based fast food giant, told a business conference that the company discontinued the pilot program after customers in San Francisco and Dallas-Fort Worth panned the McPlant. The McPlant “was not successful in either market,” Erlinger told the Wall Street Journal’s Global Fast Food Forum in Chicago on Wednesday. “I don’t think the US consumer is coming to McDonald’s or looking for McPlant or other plant-based proteins from McDonald’s now.” The executive added that McDonald’s won’t be reintroducing salads to its menu...

One angry McDonald's customer was most definitely not loving the packaging of her McChicken sandwich, heading to social media — and back to the fast food chain’s counter — with a theory about the wrapper’s possible hidden meaning. “I thought they gave me the wrong sandwich but conveniently, McDonald’s changed their packaging,” the customer, @mahawi2850, explained in their now-viral (and removed) TikTok, pulling out the blue and white wrapper. “Wow. What does that resemble?” Peeved over the packaging’s apparent resemblance to the Israeli flag, @mahawi2850 took their concerns back to the fast food chain, asking an employee about the offending...

A longtime San Francisco McDonald’s has become the latest casualty of California’s new $20 minimum wage, according to reports. The McDonald’s at the Stonestown Galleria shopping mall, about eight miles southwest of downtown San Francisco, was permanently shuttered Sunday after more than 30 years serving the area. “This is a gut-wrenching day for my family,” franchise owner Scott Rodrick said, according to ABC 7. Rodrick blamed the closure on a number of factors — but said the newly rolled-out law hiking the statewide minimum wage from $16 to $20 an hour pushed the business over the edge. Coupled with the...

After a brutal, unprovoked attack by a homeless man at a McDonald's drive-through in Boyle Heights that left 74-year-old Jose Juan Rangel battered and bruised and his wife Maria Guadalupe Vargas Luna brain-dead, the family has received yet another blow. This time, the LA County District Attorney George Gascón's office states they plan to file a motion to dismiss the most severe charge against Charles Green, a felony count, and only keep the lesser charge of misdemeanor battery. "The DA, in my opinion, is brushing it off. They're not really seeing the big picture of what impact the injuries that...

An independent group of McDonald's franchise owners have spoken out about the the chain's $5 meal bundle planned for this summer. The US's biggest fast food chain is trying to lure back customers fed up with its price hikes. Customers will get a total of four items - either a McDouble or McChicken sandwich, small fries, small soft drink and four McNuggets - for $5. 'The fact remains that in order to provide the consumer with more affordable options, they must be affordable for the owner/operators. 'McDonald's vast resources and financial investment are essential to any sustainable affordable strategy,' the...

A McDonald’s in Oakland has temporarily closed after health inspectors discovered rodent activity, including a dead rat, inside the fast food restaurant Friday. The inspection came one day after six McDonald’s employees at 1330 Jackson St. went on strike for unsanitary work conditions due to severe rodent activity. According to two employees who filed a complaint with the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health, staff saw rats daily. “We see rats in the kitchen every day. We see rats at the grill where we make the hamburgers, nibbling on pieces of bacon or on hamburgers that are ready to...

McDonald’s is working to introduce a value meal in U.S. stores to help offset an increasingly challenging environment for consumers, two people familiar with the matter told CNBC. The people said the $5 meal could include four items: a McChicken or McDouble, four-piece chicken nuggets, fries and a drink. The value meal was first reported by Bloomberg News. The potential new offering comes at a time when low-income consumers are beginning to pull back on spending, particularly at fast-food brands. Mentions of low-income consumers on company earnings calls are at their highest levels in nearly two years, according to data...

One of the young victims was knifed in the chest, while the other was slashed on the hand in front of the fast food restaurant at 1600 Boston Road in Charlotte Gardens just before 4 p.m., according to police.
