The runner-up in the 2024 U.S. presidential election won’t be running for California‘s top job next year, but Kamala Harris isn’t ruling out a 2028 White House bid yet. After months of speculation and impressive polling, the former Vice President has made it official: She’s not going to be on the ballot to lead the Golden State. “After deep reflection, I’ve decided that I will not run for Governor in this election,” Harris said Wednesday. Earlier this year, around the time of the Oscars, Harris told friends and deep-pocketed donors that she would make a final decision on running for

Most likely, she either has negotiated a multimillion-dollar contract with a news organization or she wants to run for president.

Yep, the other shoe has dropped. First, Knucklehead Tampon Timmy announced he wasn't running for President, and now his partner in campaign incompetence, Kackles the Klown, announces she's sparing the voters in California of her annoying presence in their next gubernatorial election. I've no doubt that both were informed in no uncertain terms that they weren't getting a dime from the major Rat donors, so no point in bothering to run.

She can't speak. Forget admission to and graduation from law school. Her IQ could not possibly be above 80. Don't you know that that was Willie Brown's main attraction to her? He wanted a sackmate who couldn't speak. That's what he got. It cost him his marriage, but he got what he wanted. To this day, he's not impressed with Camel-ah.

Pete Buttigieg has been quietly making the rounds on an early 2028 tour after having announced that he would sit out races for governor and senator in 2026. In October, Buttigieg will speak at the Michigan Democratic Party’s “Best of the West” event, a prime swing-state spot for a presidential hopeful. (Snip) An Emerson College poll in late June showed Buttigieg continues to face problems with Black voters. In a stunning result, zero percent of Black respondents supported him when asked whom they’d back for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination in 2028. “You can’t get nominated as a Democrat without

CHICAGO — Former President Joe Biden expressed alarm Thursday about attacks on the rule of law and threats to civil rights under President Donald Trump in some of his most pointed criticism about the new administration since leaving office. Biden, speaking to the National Bar Association in Chicago, did not mention Trump by name but his intended target was clear during remarks that only ran about 20 minutes. “You can’t sugarcoat it. These are dark days,” Biden told the crowd of nearly 1,100 members of the predominantly Black legal organization. The remarks echoed, at least in tone, some of his

Brom was 16 years old when he killed his mother Paulette, his father Bernard, his younger sister Diane and younger brother Richard at their home in Rochester, Minnesota.

The gunman who killed four people before turning the gun on himself, identified as 27-year-old Shane Tamura, was trying to target the National Football League headquarters, NYC Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday. Investigators believe Tamura mistakenly took the wrong elevator, leading him to Rudin Management instead, Adams told NewsNation local affiliate WPIX. Tamura reportedly had a three-page suicide note inside his pocket, which claimed he had a brain injury from a contact sport and blamed the NFL. Tamura, who played high school football, reportedly wanted his brain studied after his death. An official motive has not yet been released.

However, one group rising in membership plans to use their sick time for precisely that — taking a page out of organized labor's handbook and using their collective action to expose and potentially even directly impact what they view as systemic injustices against the working class of the United States.

An Islamic center in Minnesota penned a gushing letter of support for a Somalian migrant convicted of raping a 12-year-old girl. Qalinle Ibrahim Dirie, 42, was convicted in May of first-degree criminal sexual conduct after he was found guilty of abducting the girl from her backyard and raping her in June 2024. Following his conviction, Dirie's local Islamic center, Al-Ihsan Islamic Center in St. Paul, submitted a heartfelt letter begging Hennepin County District Court Judge Michael Burns to consider the convicted criminal's 'character' before delivering a sentence, Alpha News reported.

The former House speaker had joined the program to discuss the 60th anniversary of Medicaid, but things quickly went off-script when Tapper tried to bring up Trump’s pointed remarks. Tapper began to quote Trump, saying, “Nancy Pelosi became rich—” before Pelosi abruptly cut him off. “Why—why do you have to read that?” she snapped, clearly not happy with where the discussion was going.

Monday’s mass shooting is a problem for Zohran Mamdani not just thanks to his long record of cop-bashing, but because he was off vacationing at the family estate in Uganda when it happened. Any candidate could have been out of town in late July, but no others would be partying at a grand colonial compound an ocean away from home. And it’s an extra-icky look for a socialist who’s supposedly pro-equality and anti-imperialistic. Yes, the gated Mamdani spread in the ritzy Buziga Hill neighborhood of Kampala, Uganda, belongs to Zohran’s Hollywood-director mom and Columbia radical-prof dad, but he plainly feels fully privileged to enjoy it.

Congress’s slashing of federal funding has resulted in one of the most useless agencies shutting down operations. The far-left Corporation for Public Broadcasting announced in a press release on Friday that they were going to begin the process of closing down for good, despite a supposed outcry from millions of Americans. The organization cited the shutdown due to the passage of the rescissions package last month and the release of the Senate Appropriations Committee’s FY 2026 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies (Labor-H) appropriations bill.
