It is a self-serving narrative pushed by those who profit from the status quo. To protect that system, they must hide Biden’s complicity in the sweeping destruction of our nation’s productive capacity. Biden has done little to reverse the deindustrialization of America during his more than four decades in public office. In fact, his record on China—both as vice president and well before then—makes clear his policies almost certainly accelerated the erosion of our nation’s manufacturing industry and offshoring of millions of good-paying jobs....

According to an AP-NORC poll, 56 percent of people disapprove of Biden’s stance on immigration, with 55 percent disapproving on the current border situation—the two worst readings of the issues included. Biden also had negative approval ratings on the issues of gun policy and the federal budget deficit. But his overall job approval rating was net positive, with 61 percent approving versus 38 percent disapproving of his presidency so far....

The former vice president announced his $383 million campaign haul on Wednesday night, and thanked the 5.5 million backers who had contributed to his coffers in the final stretch of the election cycle.

“I’m a car guy,” he said, addressing the Michigan crowd soon after leaving the tarmac. The son of a car dealer and the proud owner of a 1967 green Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Biden’s affinity for autos has always been part of his brand. These days, between presidential outings and prohibited from driving himself, Biden’s main ride is his chauffeur-driven heavily armored limousine. 1951 Studebaker Champion But long before Biden’s presidential dreams, it was the 1951 Studebaker Champion that he first drove around in on Delaware’s streets....

That had shifted from earlier in the night when the president had odds of 4-6 (a 60 percent implied chance). Democratic nominee Joe Biden was priced at 13-8 (38 percent chance of winning the election)—longer odds than the 6-4 (40 percent chance) he achieved at 9 p.m. ET....

“I am proud to announce today the first senior White House communications team comprised entirely of women. These qualified, experienced communicators bring diverse perspectives to their work and a shared commitment to building this country back better,” Biden said in a statement. “Communicating directly and truthfully to the American people is one of the most important duties of a President, and this team will be entrusted with the tremendous responsibility of connecting the American people to the White House,” he added....

Fox News host Sean Hannity aired the nearly four-year-old voicemail on his show on Monday. It was originally obtained by The Daily Mail and was reportedly left on October 15, 2018—three days after Hunter Biden allegedly made a false statement while purchasing a gun.

Biden made the remarks while being interviewed alongside Vice President-elect Kamala Harris by CNN’s Jake Tapper on Thursday. Trump has not indicated whether he will attend the inauguration and has instead continued to refuse to concede, while promoting evidence-free conspiracy theories that Biden’s seemingly decisive victory was built on massive unsubstantiated voter fraud. “I think [Trump attending the inauguration] would be important only in one sense,” Biden said. “Not in a personal sense....

The University of Southern California Dornsife Election “Daybreak” Poll, which tracks changes in Americans’ views throughout the presidential campaign, shows Biden with a lead of almost 13 points over Trump. The USC poll is significant. In 2016, when it was partnered with the Los Angeles Times, USC predicted that Trump would defeat former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by 3.2 percent. Clinton won the popular vote by 2.1 percent but the Republican prevailed in the electoral college....

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter put the spotlight on the podcast host’s use of racial slurs on his show over the years last week when she posted a video to social media that featured a lengthy compilation of Rogan using the “N-word.” The host of The Joe Rogan Experience issued an apology and expressed regret while more than 70 episodes of his show were pulled from Spotify. Arie also shared a clip in which Rogan compared a movie theater in a Black neighborhood to Planet of the Apes, which has since been widely condemned....

The podcasting giant discussed the hatred for The Guardians of the Galaxy star online and suggested that he gets so much flack because of his religious views. “Even Chris Pratt gets in trouble because he’s Christian,” Rogan said on Tuesday on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. “He’s kind of outside the lines in terms of his ideology, he’s a Christian, and pretty open about it,” Rogan added. “Because of that they attack him....

Fans often see Rogan working out and training in MMA as he regularly posts himself learning the trade on social media. The 55-year-old has also welcomed nutritionists, chefs and world class athletes onto The Joe Rogan Experience and has always been open-minded in regards to the latest health fads. In a video uploaded last year, Rogan revealed that he’d been on the carnivore diet for the month of January, showing off some impressive results....

The last time I saw Joel Cornette on a basketball court was in the finals of the 2001 Horizon League championship at Wright State. He was a sophomore at Butler University then, grown to 6-10 and the tallest player on a team that would change the way the Bulldogs thought about their basketball program. As much as anyone who wore the uniform, it was Cornette and teammates such as Rylan Hainje, Brandon Miller and LaVall Jordan who turned Butler from a nice mid-major into a burgeoning power....

That was John Baker’s morning on Wednesday. The Cubs’ backup receiver worked a scoreless top of the 16th, then came home on Starlin Castro’s bases-loaded sac fly in the bottom half to beat the Rockies, 4-3. This being the Cubs, of course, Twitter was ready with the quips, even in the middle of the night: For the record, Baker has half as many wins for the Cubs as Samardzija has this season....
