  • Never-Trumper J.D. Vance Is Now Trump's Vice Presidential Candidate
    Jul 16 2024
    On the first day of the Republican National Convention, Sen. J.D. Vance became the vice presidential nominee to run alongside former President Donald Trump. At 39 years old, the Ohio senator is the first millennial on a major ticket. In the past, Vance was not always a supporter of Trump, once calling him "America's Hitler," saying he was a never-Trumper, even calling him a "total fraud." Vance is now one of the staunchest supporters and backers of Donald Trump, and he's made a 180-degree turn in the Senate, pushing bills that criminalize gender-affirming care, going against all affirmative action policies at colleges and universities, publicly supporting a 15-week abortion ban, and, among many other things, promoting the replacement theory.

  • This Day in History: Celebrating Ida B. Wells, Born in 1862
    Jul 16 2024
    Born on July 16, 1862, Ida B. Wells was a formidable crusader against lynching and an active participant in the women's rights and suffrage movements, establishing several notable women's organizations. In a pivotal act of resistance 71 years before Rosa Parks, she refused to give up her seat on a train and was forcibly removed. This incident propelled her into civil rights activism, and she sued the railroad, winning a $500 settlement. Wells became a public figure in Memphis through her journalism, writing for "The Living Way," and later became the first Black woman paid as a correspondent in Europe. Ida B. Wells passed away in 1931 at 68 years old. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Trump Chooses Sen. J.D. Vance As Running Mate, Elevating Former Critic Turned Ally
    Jul 16 2024
    Former President Donald Trump chose Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate on Monday, selecting a former critic turned loyal ally. The 39-year-old Vance, who gained national fame with his 2016 memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” was elected to the Senate in 2022 and has become a strong advocate for Trump’s “Make America Great Again” agenda. Despite his support, Vance remains largely untested in national politics. He joins the ticket during a tumultuous time following an attempted assassination of Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, which has heightened awareness of the nation’s divisive political climate. Jaime Harrison, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, said Mr. Vance had “championed and enabled Trump’s worst policies for years — from a national abortion ban, to whitewashing Jan. 6, to railing against Social Security and Medicare.” Learn more about your ad choices.
