During the debate, Biden frequently appeared incoherent and struggled to articulate his points, seemingly […]
MILWAUKEE — The Republican Party used to support federal protection of the unborn, and it explicitly opposed federal funding of abortion providers.

The main stage of the Republican National Convention Monday featured an eclectic roster of speakers, but one speaker, Amber Rose, particularly brought out the party’s internal divisions on social issues.

On Monday, former President Donald Trump chose Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his vice presidential nominee. Vance was a protégé of Peter Thiel, a prominent Silicon Valley venture capitalist.
