     Kamala Harris attacks Trump on abortion rights

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: ::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.

     French voters torn between hope and fear on eve of vote

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: 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.

     Britain's new prime minister scraps Rwanda scheme

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: New UK PM Starmer scraps the Rwanda migrant scheme :: July 6, 2024 :: Keir Starmer, UK Prime Minister "Look, the Rwanda scheme was dead and buried before it started. 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.

     Britain's new Labour cabinet meets at Downing Street

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Britain's new Labour cabinet meets a day after winning the country's election:: July 6, 2024 :: London, England :: Keir Starmer, UK Prime Minister "Look colleagues, it is absolutely fantastic to welcome you to the Cabinet, our first meeting. And it was the honour and privilege of my life to be invited by the King, His Majesty the King yesterday, to form a government and to form the Labour government of 2024. And now we hold our first Cabinet meeting. So I welcome you to it. We have a huge amount of work to do. So now we get on with our work." Among Starmer's senior team are Britain's first female finance minister, Rachel Reeves, Angela Rayner as deputy prime minister and David Lammy as Britain's new foreign minister. Starmer has promised voters he will deliver change and provide political stability after a Conservative government that has seen five prime ministers and an even higher turnover of other key ministers, including 10 education secretaries. The appointments of his most senior team were widely expected, with ministers being named to the policy briefs they held while serving in opposition.

     Iran election: residents react to moderate's win

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: 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.

     Moulin Rouge celebrates new sails with can-can show

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Moulin Rouge can-can dancers dazzle spectators as its new windmill sails are lit up :: Paris, France :: July 5, 2024 :: Jane Bard, Dancer at The Moulin Rouge “I'm so proud to be a part of such a historic moment today as we light up our beautiful windmill, to let the magic continue tonight, and to dance in front of all of these people, it's just truly something indescribable and unforgettable. I'll always remember it. And I'm so lucky to dance beside so many amazing performances, well, tonight. I'm just so happy. Like, I can't stop smiling. I'm just bursting.” The sails of the red windmill atop the Moulin Rouge, the most celebrated cabaret club in Paris, fell to the ground overnight in late April. The newly-built sails were installed last June 24, in time for the passage of the Olympic torch in front of the landmark on July 15. As the lights on the new sails were lit for the first time, a bevy of can-can dancers came out of the cabaret and performed for a street audience - twirling and shrieking, with high-energy lifts and splits. France goes into a second round of snap legislative elections on Sunday (July 7), possibly plunging the country into a deadlock in parliament. The Moulin Rouge, founded in 1889, became a global symbol of end-of-the-century Parisian culture, its famed can-can dancers widely depicted in paintings by avant-garde artists of the era such as Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Georges Seurat. Nowadays the audience is largely made up of tourist groups.

     Iran election: moderate Pezeshkian named as winner

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Moderate Masoud Pezeshkian is named winner of Iran's presidential election :: Mohsen Eslami, Election headquarters spokesman "Mr. Masoud Pezeshkian had 16,384,403 votes and Mr. Saeed Jalili had 13,538,179 votes. Based on this Mr. Masoud Pezeshkian is introduced as the elected person of the 14th round of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Presidential Election." :: July 6, 2024 :: Tehran, Iran Iran's interior ministry announced Pezeshkian as the winner of Friday's runoff vote against hardline former nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili. The 69-year-old cardiac surgeon has pledged to promote a pragmatic foreign policy, ease tensions over now-stalled negotiations with major powers to revive a 2015 nuclear pact and improve prospects for social liberalization and political pluralism. However many Iranians are skeptical about his ability to fulfil his campaign promises as Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, not the president, is the ultimate authority in the Islamic Republic. Turnout was almost 50% in Friday's vote, following historically low turnout in the first round ballot on June 28, when over 60% of Iranian voters abstained. The election was called after President Ebrahim Raisi was killed in a helicopter crash in May.

     'Only Lord Almighty' can make me quit the race: Biden

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: :: Biden in an ABC interview says only the 'Lord Almighty' could oust him from the presidential race Biden says only the 'Lord Almighty' could oust him from the presidential race in an exclusive interview with ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos on Friday, after facing questions about his shaky performance in a recent debate with Donald Trump. :: (If you can be convinced that you cannot defeat Donald Trump, will you stand down?) :: "It depends if the Lord Almighty comes down and tells me that, I might do that." "I'm not going to do that. (You're sure?) Yeah, I'm sure. Look, I mean, if the Lord Almighty came down and said 'Joe, get out of the race,' I'd get out of the race. The Lord Almighty's not coming down." :: July 5, 2024 :: Madison, Wisconsin :: He also calls his debate against Donald Tump 'a bad episode' :: “It was a bad episode. No indication of any serious condition, I was exhausted. I didn’t listen to my instincts in terms of preparing. I had a bad night. “ :: (“You say you were exhausted. And I know you have said that before as well, but you came, and you did have a tough month, but you came home from Europe about 11 or 12 days before the debate, spent six days in Camp David. Why wasn’t that enough rest time? Enough recovery time?”) :: “Because I was sick. I was feeling terrible. As a matter of fact, the docs with me, I asked them if they did a COVID test to try to figure out what was wrong. And did a test to see whether or not I had some infection, you know, a virus, I didn’t. I just had a really bad cold." He added that it was no one else's fault but his own, and that he hadn't rewatched his debate performance. Biden's comments came in a clip of an interview that is being closely watched by Democrats concerned about the president's ability to serve another four years, or beat Republican Trump in November’s election, after his faltering debate performance on June 27.

     2024 election: Why the conventions might be weird this year

     Yahoo News Video

     Historically, the Republican and Democratic National Conventions have been a time for parties to come together, formally nominate their presidential and vice presidential candidates and present a united front as the general election kicks into high gear. However, as the RNC descends on Milwaukee later this month and the DNC prepares for their big show in Chicago in August, both presumptive presidential nominees are bringing an unusual amount of uncertainty about their ability to serve a second term with them. Yahoo News explains why former President Donald Trump’s legal ongoing issues and growing concern over President Biden’s health are casting a shadow over the 2024 conventions.

     How three-way election battles will shape France's future

     Reuters Videos

     STORY: In the first round of France's snap elections - centrist Emilie Chandler came in third place. She had a quarter of the votes in her constituency - far behind the far-right National Rally candidate leading at 34%... who was closely followed by the Popular Front candidate at 30%. Chandler's chances of winning back her seat in Sunday's election run-off are slim. And candidates such as she are being pressed to drop out to unite voters against National Rally. But she continues to hit the campaign trail, in a bid that critics say could end up helping a far-right party win a majority in France for the first time since World War Two. "In any case, if I had withdrawn, it would have been a gift to the National Rally. My final point is that I don't want to abandon my voters, nearly 15,000 of them in the first round. These are people who put their trust in me." Chandler's constituency in Val d'Oise is one of roughly 100 three-way election battles taking place across France. Marine Le Pen's eurosceptic, anti-immigration National Rally topped the parliamentary election's first round with a third of the vote. In an attempt to block the far-right from holding power, 200 third-placed candidates withdrew their candidacy. Local business-owner Mourad Elferdi says he's afraid of a future with the National Rally. "I'm really worried about my kids. What do you want me to say to my children, whom I encourage to go to school and keep on going? They're doing very, very well, but what do you want me to explain to them? That even if you've got your qualifications, the National Rally has banned you from certain jobs, how do you want me to explain the situation to them?" Opinion polls suggest that the National Rally will win fewer seats than previously thought and is likely to be short of an absolute majority. An Ipsos poll forecasted the National Rally would get up to 205 seats. But for a ruling majority, 289 seats are needed in the National Assembly.
