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.

Harris lost to Trump. She may have one last chance to defy him.

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.

Throughout Biden's term, Harris has been the go-to person for Democrats' narrow majority. Last year, she broke the record for the most decisive votes cast by a vice president in history. According to three people wit...

However, a recent report from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau suggests that the choice may backfire in a lending market beset by consumer abuses.
