- 0:58Kamala Harris attacks Trump on abortion rightsReuters VideosSTORY: ::Kamala Harris attacks Trump on women's rights during an appearance aimed at wooing Black voters ::July 6, 2024 ::Kamala Harris U.S. Vice President "This is probably the most significant election of our lifetime. You know, we have said it every four years, but this here one, is it. We are looking an election that will take place in 122 days, where on one side you have the former president who is running to become president again, who has openly talked about his admiration of dictators, and his intention to be a dictator on day one, who has openly talked about his intention to weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies, who has talked about being proud of taking from the women of America the most fundamental right about making decisions about your own body." "Understand that the former president who is up for re-election has said he is proud of what has happened, proud of the fact that our daughters will have fewer rights than their grandmothers." ::New Orleans, Louisiana Harris, the top choice to replace U.S. President Joe Biden if he were to step aside as the Democratic Party's standard-bearer, was speaking in New Orleans at the Essence Festival of Culture, an annual culture and music festival sponsored by Essence magazine, whose target audience is Black women. She said the Nov. 5 vote was "probably the most significant election of our lifetime", before warning that Trump was "proud of the fact that our daughters will have fewer rights than their grandmothers." Harris on Friday (July 5) posted a supportive note on X after Biden's rally in Madison, saying the president had devoted his life to fighting for Americans. "In this moment, I know all of us are ready to fight for him," she said. 81-year-old Biden is facing a slow-boil uprising from congressional Democrats and some influential donors who have grown concerned he lacks the capacity to defeat Republican rival Trump in the upcoming election. But the president gave no hint that he was considering stepping aside on Saturday, after a pair of defiant public appearances a day earlier.2 days ago

- 1:19French voters torn between hope and fear on eve of voteReuters VideosSTORY: In the seaside town of Le Touquet in northern France, Sunday's snap parliamentary elections - and the far-right National Rally, or RN - were top of mind for voters. "I saw the map of France and it scared me a little because the majority are with the RN. So obviously, I don't feel very well. I think there are many of us who have this feeling, many who are afraid for France, for the future." While some welcomed the change embodied by the RN, others worried about what they called an 'anti-Semitic' and 'racist' party. Opinion polls forecast the far-right could be the largest party but fall short of an absolute majority. Ahead of the vote, parties across the political spectrum urged French voters to vote massively to tilt the outcome either way. Marine Le Pen's eurosceptic, anti-immigration National Rally topped the parliamentary election's first round with a third of the vote. It opened the prospect of the far-right leading a French government for the first time since World War Two. However, after a series of tactical withdrawals aimed at boosting whoever is best placed to beat the far-right, several surveys have projected a drop in the number of seats the RN could win. That would make an absolute majority even harder to reach.2 days ago

It's never been a deterrent. Look at the numbers that have come over in the first six and a bit months of this year. They are record numbers. That is the problem that we are inheriting. It has never acted as a deterrent." :: London, England "The work has started and we will deliver change as quickly as we can and that will include change, you know, within the early months and years of the government. It won't be a question of simply saying nothing's going to change until towards the end of the first term. But different changes will be delivered at different speeds inevitably. What I can't pretend is that we can fix everything overnight." In his first news conference since becoming prime minister, Starmer also committed to spending 2.5% of GDP on defense ahead of Washington's NATO summit next week to celebrate the alliance's 75th anniversary. The Labour Party surged to a landslide victory in Britain's parliamentary election, ending 14 years of often tumultuous Conservative government and propelling Starmer to power as prime minister.2 days ago

- 0:32Iran election: residents react to moderate's winReuters VideosSTORY: :: Tehran residents say they're happy after moderate Pezeshkian wins presidential election "Honestly speaking, I just hope the expensiveness decreases, and jobs are easily found for young people, and that's it, I do not have any other special feelings; I'm happy that Mr Pezeshkian was elected." :: July 6, 2024 "I have a positive feeling for now, with the condition that he fulfils the promises he has made. (white flash) With Mr. Pezeshkian, the sanctions will likely be lifted, and that's very good for people." Iran's interior ministry announced on Saturday that Pezeshkian had won the country's presidential run-off. This followed June 28 ballot with historically low turnout, when over 60% of Iranian voters abstained from the snap election for a successor to Ebrahim Raisi, who had died in a helicopter crash. The next president is not expected to produce any major policy shift on the nuclear program or change in support for militia groups across the Middle East, but he runs the government day-to-day, and can influence the tone of Iran's foreign and domestic policy.3 days ago
