In 2015, Peggy was elected to the state legislature, where she led Democrats on child care issues and engaged her colleagues to form the POCI (People of Color and Indigenous) Caucus.

In a simulated ârunoff, Lula would receive 48% of â the vote compared with 45% for âBolsonaro, the eldest son of former President Jair âBolsonaro. A previous Datafolha poll had Lula leading Bolsonaro by 47% to 45%.
FlĂĄvio played recordings of the former president, promised to continue his legacy and said he had âhumblyâ accepted the mission his father had entrusted to him.
Convicted of more than 27 years in prison for plotting a coup after his 2022 electoral defeat, Jair Bolsonaro has entrusted FlĂĄvio with continuing his legacy, while maintaining his innocence and hoping that his sonâs path to the presidential palace could also lead to his own freedom.
President Trump hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House for a state dinner Thursday, whose guest list is full of tech billionaires and some of the worldâs most powerful business leaders.
Dressed in black tuxedoes, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos were among the corporate elite invited to attend the dinner, according to a guest list released by the White House.

DeSantis is telling Republicans who are frustrated with their partyâs candidates to vote for them anyway lest the DSA take the country âback to before the time of the American Revolution.â
Referring to GOP candidates as less-than-perfect, the governor insisted that the alternative is worse. State Rep. Angie Nixon, a DSA member, secured a major upset victory in August to become the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in November.

Fox News writer Amanda Macias announced that Democratic Socialists of America are âseeking to reshape some of the most basic features of the U.S. economy.â She then proceeded to lay out DSAâs core platform: universal healthcare, free public universities, student debt cancellation, a 32-hour workweek, and collecting higher taxes from the wealthy.
Maciasâs framing of the benefits of socialism reads like the wish list of anyone who is horrified by rising healthcare costs while buried in student debt and working insane hours to keep their head above water. In the end, she asked the same tired question posed by so many critics: whoâs going to pay for it all?
A new fleet of F-35s never draws that question.
A federal judge effectively blocked President Donald Trump from taking immediate action to demolish the Kennedy Center, ordering on Sept. 17 that the center provide a 30-day notice to plaintiffs before any demolition or other major changes to the center‘s main building can begin.
It means the legality of any attempt to demolish the Kennedy Center â which Trump has argued is necessary without substantial renovations â would likely be subject to the judge‘s review during the 30-day period.
Trump has sought to rename the memorial to President John F. Kennedy after himself, recasting it as the âTrump-Kennedy Centerâ last year. Cooper had ruled that only Congress can enact such a change and the name was removed from the buildingâs facade.
Massie argued in his eight articles of impeachment for Hegseth that passing the concurrent War Powers Resolution was one of the multiple ways Hegseth and the administration are breaking the law by continuing the Iran war.
The articles also address how Hegseth has ignored US laws designed to mitigate civilian casualties, his role in extrajudicial executions at sea (strikes on alleged drug-running boats), the attack on Venezuela to abduct President Maduro, the bombing campaign in Yemen last year, and his efforts to chill free speech.
Speaker Mike Johnson said Wednesday he is canceling planned Thursday votes and sending members home for a seven-week recess a day earlier than expected.
The decision lops another day off a preelection legislative schedule that Johnson had already truncated by two weeks. It also allows members to avoid having to take a vote on an impeachment resolution introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) targeting Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, which would have hit the floor no later than Thursday under House rules.
The Saudi-led coalition fighting Yemen‘s Houthis said on Wednesday it had shot down a drone south of Mecca a day earlier, before it could enter the restricted airspace over Islam‘s holiest city. The coalition said „the security of the Two Holy Mosques and the pilgrims is a red line“ and promised deterrent measures against the Iran-backed group.
TPUSA is becoming unrecognizable to those who knew Charlie Kirk‘s values before he died. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks.
„Well, yeah, Iâll say anything about the guy who is not going to punch me back. Youâre certainly brave about the guy whoâs not in the room.â
Loftus, who met Kirk years ago at the nonpartisan political convention Politicon in Los Angeles, said that as a comedian, heâs âall about freedom of speech and the First Amendment,â but described those who made jokes about Kirk as âjust absolute cowards.â

Sen. John Fetterman has faced a tide of public criticism from fellow Democrats as he stakes out lonely ground as a critic of the far-left wing of his party â and another wave rolled in Wednesday after he made a surprise video appearance at the Republican midterm convention.
So far, however, his Senate colleagues havenât joined the pile-on.
In the roughly one-minute video introducing McCormick on stage, Fetterman made clear that he is still a Democrat. But took aim at the rise of âsocialismâ in his own party â a notable and public rebuke to the Democratsâ left flank.
âYes, Iâm a Democrat. Why am I here talking to you today? Because well, Iâm a common sense Democrat. Iâm always going to stand with America. Iâm always going to reject the extremes and socialism and that anti-American way of life,â Fetterman said in the pre-recorded video.

The decision was issued by conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who handles emergency cases rising from parts of the Midwest. Kavanaugh did not refer the case to the full court, a signal that he didnât think the emergency appeal was significant enough to do so. He also did not explain his reasoning, and there were no dissents.
The average price for a gallon of diesel fuel in the United States hit an all-time high average price of $5.85 on Friday as the Trump administrationâs war on Iran and its resulting disruptions to the global energy market showed no signs of ending.
