According to a recent NBC News Decision Desk study of precinct-level data, low attendance in overwhelmingly Democratic cities was a major factor in Vice President Kamala Harris' defeats and President-elect Donald Trump's victories in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Harris's most obvious route to victory heading into Election Day was to win all three of the traditional blue wall states. She ultimately lost in all three, and the almost finished vote count in those states demonstrates how the number of votes decreased in some of the most Democratic-friendly regions of those states as compared to 2020. Harris's percentage of the vote and the percentage change in the total number of votes cast in the presidential campaign relative to the total number of votes cast in 2020 are depicted i...

It's undoubtedly striking: A group of multiracial, gender-bending models enter an austere, prismatic setting after emerging from an elevator wearing state-of-the-art makeup and vibrant apparel to a techno-industrial beat. However, the renowned British automaker Jaguar's new rebranding lacks one essential component: automobiles. Online comments on the advertisement have ranged from perplexed to appalled, with some equating the possible backlash to Bud Light's employment of a trans influencer in deviating far from its target audience. The advertising was deemed "disastrous" by a communications specialist on X because it placed too much emphasis on branding rather than the actual goods. "Something along the lines of 'our cars are engineered to the gills and go very very fast,' is what Jaguar ...

Vice President Kamala Harris may now go to Capitol Hill to defy Donald Trump in what may be her final significant act as president, following a heartbreaking defeat to him. In an ambitious endeavor to surpass the 234 judges Trump appointed during his first term, Democrats are preparing for the prospect of tight calls as President Joe Biden tries to move forward with a flurry of court appointments before he leaves the White House. Harris would be useful in this situation. Harris has the constitutional authority to provide a tie-breaking vote in his capacity as Senate president.

According to three people wit...
