Democrats will stick with Biden

Whoever wins Wisconsin, wins the presidency

If former President Donald Trump wins in Wisconsin, he will win the presidency. The latest Marquette University Law School poll shows Mr. Trump ahead with 43% of the vote, while President Biden had 40%. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., had 8% of the vote, and three other third-party candidates carried the remaining votes. Only 1% of those surveyed said that they did not know who to vote for at this time.

How to prevent future deaths like Laken Riley’s

President Biden seems more upset about using the term "illegal" to describe the illegal immigrant who is accused of killing Laken Riley than he is over her death. Truly stunning and outrageous.
