Kamala Harris has selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walls to be her running mate. This is the warning.

What a story it is. The surprise pick has put forward a man who will be ready on day one to be president of the United States.

Speaking about weird, Donald Trump buried one of his ex-wives on the first hole of his Bedminster golf course. I suppose when he goes out there to

0:40.5

reflect on the good days and better days, because he's never had a bad day in his life. He was not just
