Harris, Trump Come Out Swinging In Presidential Debate In Philadelphia
Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald J. Trump came out swinging at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia on Tuesday, Sept. 10 in their first and possibly only presidential debate before the Tuesday, Nov. 5 election. Harris made the first move by shaking Trump's hand on stage — in their first face-to-face encounter. Political observers noted how Harris "baited" the former president, prompting him to look increasingly angry. But Trump entered the "spin room" less than an hour after the debate, saying, "I think it was the best debate, personally, that I've ever …

RFK Jr. Drove Decapitated Dead Whale's Head From MA To NY, Daughter Reveals
Even though Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has dropped out of the presidential race, that hasn't stopped him from stirring yet another odd animal-related controversy thanks to a resurfaced interview with his daughter. In the 2012 interview with Town & Country Magazine, Kennedy's daughter, Kick, revealed that her father, the former independent presidential candidate who is now 70 years old, rushed to Squaw Island in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, in 1994 when she was just 6 years old. This was after he heard that a dead whale had washed up on the shore. After an hours-long trip, Kennedy…
