Earlier, POTUS said “no” to the commission’s move to hold a virtual debate due to health concerns. NBC News has announced that President Donald Trump will participate in the network’s town hall on Thursday night, a 60-minute event that is due to be held at the Perez Art Museum in Miami.

An aurora, sometimes referred to as polar lights (aurora polaris), northern lights, is the glow of the upper atmosphere that occurs as a result of their interaction with charged particles of the solar wind. Depending on the altitude and composition of the atmosphere, the glow can be of different colors and shapes. For example, if the solar wind collides with nitrogen, and as a result, it loses molecules, we will see a violet and blue glow, and if there is no loss of molecules, we will see all shades of red. The most common greenish glow is when oxygen molecules collide […]
If there’s one thing that has been consistent during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is President Trump’s steadfast denial of the seriousness of the virus and his relentless mockery of people who take precautions. He called out his opponent Joe Biden for wearing a mask as recently as this week at the first presidential debate and has held rally after rally in closed spaces, potentially exposing tens of thousands of people to the virus. Even after hearing his aide Hope Hicks had contracted the virus on Thursday night, he told an event, “the end of the pandemic is in sight.” From the […]
Win McNamee/Getty Images After shadow boxing for months, taking jabs and lobbing insults, Donald Trump will meet his challenger in a socially distanced way Tuesday evening for the first of three debates. The bar is high for Trump in the age of COVID. Can he con the country into wanting the chaos he generates for four more years when there are 200,000 Americans dead from the virus on his watch? Will the rally-loving president be able to perform in an almost empty debate hall without an audience of admirers chanting “fill that seat”? For Joe Biden, this will be the first […]
“People are dying, tens of thousands of people are out of work—he’s embarrassing,” is not only the quote of the year from former Hillary Clinton senior adviser Philippe Reines, but also sums up how he, Rick Wilson, Molly Jong-Fast, and Lincoln Project co-founder Mike Madrid feel about Donald Trump’s dwindling support among his own base. To make matters worse for the president, he is set to debate Joe Biden for the first time Tuesday night, and he doesn’t have that same 2016 anger and energy he drummed up to defeat Hillary Clinton. In this new members-only bonus episode of The New […]
Does the unexpected closure of a nightlife staple known as a place for “gentlemen” to pick up “professional” ladies, suggest that women in the Russian capital have been liberated enough to stop sleazy foreigners from running amok? On the last day of March, one of Moscow’s oldest – and most questionable – expat haunts, Night Flight, locked shut its heavily mirrored doors for the first time since they opened in 1991. The club was founded around the time of the Soviet collapse by Swedish businessmen Sonny Lundkvist and Hokan Polhammar, alongside their Russian partner Yury Giverts. It occupied a prime spot […]
As Saturday Night Live prepares for its Season 46 premiere on October 3, things will be very different from the norm. Although the venerated sketch show will return live—a departure from the remotely produced “At Home” editions launched earlier this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic—everything about its production has been overhauled to ensure the safety of its cast and crew. “We don’t know that we’re going to be able to pull it off,” Lorne Michaels told the New York Times. “We’re going to be as surprised as everyone else when it actually goes on.” On-site rapid COVID tests are now […]
Northeastern Syria, home to the vast majority of the country’s oil, is also where most US troops in the country are concentrated. Damascus has repeatedly accused US forces and their Kurdish allies of stealing the nation’s oil, with intelligence confirming the shipment of tens of millions of dollars of black gold out of the country every month. A convoy of 35 tanker trucks from the Jazira region of northeastern Syria has made its way out of the country into northern Iraq, the Syrian Arab News Agency has reported, citing local sources. The convoy reportedly left Hasakah province on Wednesday evening. Along […]
Saturday Night Live will return to Studio 8H for its Season 46 premiere, and will air live in its usual time slot on October 3, the Peacock announced Thursday. This year marks a significant milestone for the venerated sketch show: October 11 will be the 45th anniversary of its premiere in 1975. It is unclear whether SNL will celebrate this landmark with a special—although the date does fall on a Sunday, meaning the anniversary will occur while the show is still on air on the East Coast. In April SNL introduced an “At Home” format in light of the novel coronavirus pandemic, […]

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – US President Donald Trump’s family, including his wife Melania, will headline the second night of the Republican National Convention (RNC), but Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s speech will be highly scrutinized over allegations that he may be violating US law and the State Department policy. The Republicans opened the second night of their semi-virtual convention in North Carolina on Tuesday. Tonight’s program is focused on shining a light on Trump’s family and will feature a controversial speech by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

The Republican party has been headed down the wrong path on inclusion and diversity for decades and on Monday night, America saw the results as a lineup intended to highlight the party’s diversity instead exposed how little of it there is. The night opened with Charlie Kirk, the 26-year-old white founder of Turning Point USA and one of the most divisive, and angriest figures in America. As the night went on, the party trotted out regular, everyday citizens to spotlight its supposed diversity, but they lost me when they spotlighted the man and woman who pulled loaded weapons on peaceful Black […]
Another night of rioting and vandalism has rocked Kenosha, Wisconsin, with protesters seen setting stores and cars ablaze and clashing with the National Guard and police, who used crowd control weapons against violent rioters.

After an evening of unrest over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, Wisconsin authorities vowed that “justice will be served” as the city of Kenosha imposed a curfew and the governor called in the National Guard. A video of the shooting that was recorded by a bystander appears to show a Kenosha police officer shooting the Black 29-year-old several times at point-blank range as he tried to get into a van with his children. Immediately after the video was posted on social media, protesters took to the streets in outrage, with some setting fires and vandalizing parts of the city. “Justice […]
Earlier it was reported that British patriotic songs such as “Land of Hope and Glory” and “Rule Britannia” could be dropped from the setlist of the Last Night of the Proms amid Black Lives Matter protests and anti-colonial sentiment. The scandal over whether such popular patriotic songs as Rule Britannia and Land of Hope and Glory should be scrapped from the setlist of Last Night of the Proms in three weeks’ time spiraled further, as the centuries-old anthems were pronounced ‘racist propaganda’ in a debate on ITV’s Good Morning Britain on Monday.

On Thursday night, Stephen Colbert’s Late Show went live after the fourth and final night of the Democratic National Convention. And, reacting to Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s convention-closing speech, where he made an impassioned plea for “a united America,” Colbert nearly jumped out of his chair with excitement. Then, the comedian got serious—and issued his own address of sorts to his viewers. “Well, here’s the deal,” the comic said. “Biden spoke for over 10 minutes and addressed all the pain that Trump has inflicted upon our country; all the possibilities for healing our nation. But most importantly, not once did […]

Wheelchair bound, he came up to the halls of Congress to lobby against legislation that would undo the Affordable Care Act.

US President Donald Trump has once again taken aim at the notion of having all voters cast mail-in ballots at the 2020 presidential election, suggesting that in this case the outcome may not be known until “even years later.” “Must know Election results on the night of the Election, not days, months, or even years later!” Trump tweeted on Thursday, shortly before arguing that “universal mail-in voting” at the November election will turn it into the “most inaccurate and fraudulent election in history.” Must know Election results on the night of the Election, not days, months, or even years later! — Donald […]
