President Donald Trump has regularly trailed Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden in most national polls and aims to avoid becoming the first incumbent in 32 years to fail to win a second term. Election Day also falls on Colin Kaepernick’s birthday. Some have taken this as a positive omen for Biden, given the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback was one of Trump’s most outspoken critics during the incumbent’s first term....

The Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept will debut in 2024 as a production model with nine power levels, all-wheel drive, exhaust “noise” and a transmission that, unlike what is in almost all electric vehicles, shifts. “This car, we believe, will redefine American muscle,” Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis told Newsweek. It will run to the car show, it will run a quarter mile and it will run to Costco because of the lift gate and the full flat seats that adds functionality inside....

Warren brought along a copy of the release, which she constructed herself, telling the audience, “I used to teach contract law and I thought I would make this easy....

On Monday, Warren targeted DeVos in a series of tweets highlighting her plans for public education. Along with improving funding for public schools and the treatment of teachers and staff, she would nominate someone to the position of Education Secretary that had experience as a public school teacher. Days earlier, on Friday, DeVos told Fox News host Brett Baier that America was “failing” too many kids. She criticized the amount of money that was spent on education since the Department of Education was created given the gap in achievements between students on the low and high end of the spectrum....

The image, posted on Twitter after of the sprinter’s gold-medal performance in the men’s 100 meters Sunday, was meant to be a lighthearted reflection on how fast Bolt is.

On August 7, 2018, Musk tweeted that he was “considering taking Tesla private at $420” per share, in a deal that would be valued at around $72 billion. Glen Littleton, an investor, sued Musk, Tesla and members of the company’s board, alleging that the tweets in question cost investors billions by sparking dramatic fluctuations in the prices of Tesla stock, options and bonds. Musk said in court papers that he was considering taking the Tesla private and believed that he had the backing of Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth to complete the deal, The Wall Street Journal reported....

Bremmer, founder and president of political risk consulting firm Eurasia Group, wrote in a newsletter to his firm’s subscribers that Musk had said Putin was “prepared to negotiate” on ending the war during a recent talk, according to a report published by Vice on Tuesday.

A Securities and Exchange Commission filing on Friday revealed that Musk had informed Twitter that he was backing out of the deal over alleged deceptions involving the platform’s “fake or spam accounts.” Twitter’s board soon announced plans to sue Musk for breaking the contract, saying in a statement that it would “enforce the merger agreement” in court and was “confident” of victory.

At the end of 2022, the country had 850,000 fewer people than it did at the end of the previous year.

Attorney Alex Spiro filed a motion Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Manhattan on behalf of Musk. The motion argues that a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) subpoena should be nullified, the Associated Press reported. Spiro also contended that without court authorization, the SEC can’t take action in regard to Musk’s Twitter posts.

Opining in his March 15 “Moving On” column headlined “Of the Places You’ll Go, Is The Library Still One of Them?...

As with many other issues, the first concern is language. Did I really have a “breakthrough case?” The term suggests the virus broke through a shield that should have kept it out. I’ve been a longtime vaccine advocate, but I never viewed my Moderna shots as a guarantee of never getting sick. For most of 2021, there were suggestions that vaccinated status helped keep the first wave of COVID at bay, and it may have done just that....
