According to CNN’s latest poll, Joe Biden‘s approval ratings have risen. The President’s assent is likely attributed to the better-than-expected mid-term results from the Democratic party in the midterm elections. Forty-six percent of respondents said they approved of Biden’s job performance, while 54 percent said they disapproved. The approval rating was up five points from the last poll, taken before the midterm elections.

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) blasted Donald Trump for endorsing Herschel Walker for U.S. Senate. Christie said he believes Trump has saddled the Republican party with “bad candidates.” “Bad candidates lose. Good candidates have a chance to win. Herschel Walker was not a good candidate,” Christie told ABC News. Trump endorsed Walker and campaigned alongside the Republican candidate before the December runoff. A laundry list of personal scandals marred Walker’s candidacy. “Herschel Walker is his creation,” Christie said of Trump. “We all remember in 2016, he said, if he got elected...

President Joe Biden is pushing to make South Carolina the first primary state in 2024 to increase diversity in the Democratic Party’s nominating process. The move would drastically change the presidential nomination calendar. The new order of primaries would be as follows: South Carolina, where more than half of the population is black, on February 6, Nevada and New Hampshire on February 13, followed by Georgia’s primary on February 20 and Michigan’s on February 27. The reordering would end a decades-long tradition of the “first in the nation” caucus in Iowa, which would be completely removed ...

A rural county in Arizona delayed the certification of the midterm election’s results, raising concerns about the effect of misinformation about the voting process spread by far-right candidates during this year’s campaign in the state. The Republican majority of the Cochise County Board of Supervisors voted on Monday to postpone the certification process until Friday, claiming concerns about voting machines. By doing so, the county missed the Monday deadline for all 15 Arizona counties to certify their results. The decision led Arizona’s Secretary of State Katie Hobbs — a Democrat who won the...

Herschel Walker did it again and went viral due to a bizarre televised moment — which has become usual in his campaign for the U.S. Senate in Georgia. This time, the Republican candidate inspired memes by mixing words and saying: “This erection is about the people.” “First of all, this election is more than Herschel Walker,” Walker said during an interview aired on Fox News. “This erection is about the people,” he added, obviously confusing the words “election” and “erection.” In the video, Walker is surrounded by Republican Sens. Ted Cruz (Texas) and Lindsey Graham (South Carolina). They both...

Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate in Georgia, went on an unexpected tangent at a rally on Wednesday and declared he wanted to be a werewolf, not a vampire. In a rambling speech, Walker suddenly cited a movie he watched on TV to make a vague point about having faith in the country and elected officials. The former college football player turned politician with the endorsement of former president Donald Trump told voters he watched a movie whose title he remembered as “Fright Night, Freak Night, or some type of night.” IN MEMORIAM 2022: 100 GREAT CELEBRITIES WHO DIED TH...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming) mocked Kari Lake for losing Arizona’s gubernatorial election on Monday. Cheney retweeted a letter Lake wrote to her in October ironically thanking her for her “anti-endorsement.” In the document, Lake said her campaign received more support after Cheney urged Arizonans to not vote for Lake, a Donald Trump-backed candidate. With the results called on Monday night, Cheney responded to the joke by tweeting, “You’re welcome, @KariLake.” Cheney, a Republican, is a harsh critic of former president Trump. She is one of the two Republicans serving on the House select commit...

Despite pre-midterm projections, the Democrats still have a slim chance of retaining the House. Republicans are much closer to the 218 threshold, with a projected 211 wins to the Democrats’ 191, but in Western states that tend to vote blue, mail-in ballots are more common. Counting them will take time, but there are over 10 states that lean blue where races have not yet been called. This leaves about 30 races that could go to either party, but Republicans need to win just seven of those to gain the majority in the House. They are currently expected to win around 220 of the seats, just two less...

Ahead of the midterm elections, Russia renewed its strategy of using internet trolls to influence American politics, undermine trust in the electoral system and spread the idea that the U.S. should not fund Ukraine in its conflict with Moscow. In the past few months, trolls have been targeting conservatives on social media platforms like Gab, Gettr and Parler to spread these ideas, according to Recorded Future and two other social media research companies, Graphika and Mandiant. Recorded Future was able to track one of those accounts, identified as Nora Berka. The account resurfaced in August ...
