A new poll shows Biden’s support among Black voters is slipping in crucial swing states. Rep. James Clyburn joins Charles Coleman Jr. to discuss what Biden’s campaign and Democrats’ can do to reverse the trend. "We're going to have to go to the streets. We cannot rely on the media to do this,” Clyburn says. “This is going to be hand to hand combat.” They also discuss Speaker Mike Johnson’s appearance at a joint news conference at Mar-a-Lago with Donald Trump and what it reveals about...
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is no recent convert to Donald Trump’s gospel of the Big Lie; after the 2020 election, Johnson led 100 House Republicans in filing an amicus brief supporting an effort to invalidate the results of four swing states President Joe Biden won. So it was little surprise to see him standing next to Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, trying to link election conspiracy-mongering to immigration fear-mongering. Johnson and Trump were there to propose new legislation...

To the editor: Buried more than 20 paragraphs into your article on the presidential candidates' instances of dishonesty and mistakes, there is a statement by Joe Biden that is propped up as a lie that justifies this comparison to Donald Trump. President Biden's "lie"? That he visited ground zero in New York the day after 9/11, when he actually went nine days later. Contrasting this misstatement with the torrent of lies and malicious fabrications that flow nonstop from former President Trump, and...
