oe Biden’s presidency is over. The old man can’t hack it, announcing earlier this afternoon that he’s exiting the race, endorsing Kamala Harris, his vice president, and finishing the rest of his term in isolation. But where is the president? A tweet of his ‘I quit’ letter was released, which did not sit well with many folks, and then nothing. We’re left to speculate what is going on with Joe Biden, and none of it is good. What the hell https://t.co/aOz5gaMyX0— umichvoter 🏳️‍🌈 (@umichvoter) July 21, 2024Frank Biden came forward to say that his brother’s health definitely played a role...

The assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump paused the Democrat infighting about if President Joe Biden should remain the presumptive nominee of his party. Not one Democrat publicly came out against Biden since the violent attack on Saturday against Democracy, a positive sign for the president. The Democrat party, however, is far from united and may resume in the weeks leading up to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in five weeks, Axios reported Monday: Privately, the conversations are raging. Biden has more work to do to convince donors and elected officials that he should be the party’s nominee. Donors...

The defeated leader of the Conservative Party, which suffered its worst election result in well over a century overnight, has said he is stepping down from power and will also give up control of what remains of his political faction. “I have heard your anger, disappointment and I take responsibility for this loss,” said Rishi Sunak on Friday morning at the podium in front of Downing Street. The Prime Minister acknowledged the country has given a clear signal that it wants change, and said he would go to King Charles III to tender his resignation. The Prime Minister immediately got...

The White House is frantically moving to get President Joe Biden in front of cameras and crowds on an expedited schedule this July 4th weekend after growing calls from within his party to step down after his debate disaster. Biden's handlers had already put in place a taped, sit-down interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos to try to fend off calls from lawmakers and donors to demonstrate that he is still up to the task of campaigning. But after a Wednesday meeting with the nation's governors that failed to quell mounting calls for his ouster from the Democratic ticket, ABC announced...

The Dump Biden movement has regained momentum inside the Democratic Party. We cannot yet say for sure that it will succeed. Team Biden is still digging in to keep their man in contention. But the ground is slipping from under the President's feet. It could soon be an unstoppable landslide. By this time next week, the Democrats could be looking for a new presidential candidate. Or still ripping themselves apart over whether they should be. I spoke to two senior Democrats today, one an experienced election strategist, the other on Joe Biden's staff when he was vice president. Both were...

A self-proclaimed “vaping addict” is calling for the devices to be banned after her right lung collapsed twice and she suffered permanent scars. “You never think this type of thing will happen to you — but it happened to me. It felt like my lung was on fire,” Wisconsinite Karlee Ozkurt, 20, told SWNS. “I fell into the trap of thinking vaping was cool,” Ozkurt confessed. “But it’s stupid. I didn’t realize until it was too late.” Ozkurt’s plea follows a recent study that found that 11.3% of American high school students reported using e-cigarettes in the past 30 days...

The day after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) won reelection by a shocking 19-point margin, the Rupert Murdoch-owned New York Post screamed a one-word front page headline: “DeFuture.”The celebratory photo showed a Kennedy-esque, central-casting-worthy family. Casey DeSantis, holding hands with her two small children, looked like a future first lady in her stunning gold designer gown on her way to the inaugural ball. The victorious governor held their third child with one arm, waving to the crowd with the other.Looking back at that eight-month-old New York Post front page, not only have the powerful Murdochs reportedly soured on DeSantis, but...

Attorney Trusty, appearing on NBC on Friday morning, said Trump is ready for a battle. “He’s a fighter, and he’s going to come out swinging, and he’ll be fine,” Trusty said. “He’s not afraid of this thing.” Hours later, in a shocking turn of events, Trusty and another attorney on the team, John Rowley, resigned from the case.

He gave a 45 minute going away speech yesterday to staff.Today, the reporters who are loyal to O’Keefe have told the board that unless they resign today, they are all quitting as a bloc.This matches the loss of nearly 100,000 followers of PV on Twitter in one day.

We’re all about to walk out after an emergency board meeting tomorrow unless they all...

The “Great Resignation” is causing waves across the workforce, but not in places you might expect. While plenty of attention has been devoted to Gen Z employees switching jobs in record numbers, new data shows the C-suite is struggling too. Deloitte reports around 70% of high-level executives are seriously considering quitting their jobs, largely to improve their emotional well-being. In fact, these departures are already underway. According to a recent report conducted by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, over 650 CEOs left their jobs in 2022. What’s behind this exodus of leaders? Workers across all industries have been deeply impacted by...

A record-setting 4.5 million Americans quit their jobs in March, according to data released Tuesday from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The data also showed 11.5 million jobs available, indicating a continued advantage for workers as companies and industries across the country – from airlines to teachers- struggle with staffing shortages. Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter, went so far as to call the current market “the greatest job seekers’ market of all time” in a tweet.

Companies who are demanding workers back at the office every day may actually see their workers join the Great Resignation instead. It may especially be a challenge to get Gen Z workers to work in person all the time. That's based on survey findings from ADP Research Institute. The new report, "People at Work 2022: A Global Workforce View", included results from a November 2021 survey of over 32,000 workers in 17 countries. The countries surveyed include the US, ​​India, and the Netherlands.

Johnathan Perkins, director for Race and Equity at University of California, Los Angeles, tweeted his wish for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to die after news broke that Thomas was hospitalized for an infection. "This whole rule we’re not to wish ill on people is silly," he said. Perkins added "Uncle Thomas is a sexist token who’s committed himself to making us all share in he and his treasonous wife’s misery" and "I’m over it. He is bad. He’s LITERALLY endangered lives of countless of this country’s vulnerable populations." Perkins further said he did not believe Thomas was not actually...

The Florida Department of Health has placed a top official on administrative leave after he criticised staff over their vaccination rate. In an email on 4 January, Dr Raul Pino called unvaccinated staff members "irresponsible" and wrote "we are not even at 50% - pathetic". Legislation passed in Florida late last year prohibits employers, public and private, from mandating jabs. DOH confirmed on Wednesday the doctor's actions were being investigated.

President Joe Biden left Monday for his beach vacation in Delaware after admitting in a video call with U.S. governors that there was no federal solution to the coronavirus pandemic. “Thank you very much.
