Vice President Kamala Harris, in an attempt to outmaneuver the strategies of former President Donald Trump and address old points of vulnerability on her policy positions, has started drawing the outlines of how she would govern if elected in the November polls. This marks a significant departure from the norm, as vice presidents usually do not have policy portfolios of their own.
Previously, Harris adhered to President Joe Biden’s policy lead for four years. She now treads cautiously while revealing a policy vision of her own. Such deliberate attempts are considered typifying among presidential candidates looking to solidify their political identity and priorities.
Meanwhile, a peculiar event has unfolded concerning the Trump camp. At least three news outlets reportedly received leaked confidential material from the Trump campaign. These documents included a detailed report on the vetting of JD Vance as a potential vice-presidential candidate.
Upon receiving the information, all outlets declined to disclose any explicit details. Instead, they wrote about a likely hack of the campaign and described what they received in general terms. Thus, the nature of the information contained in the leaks remains unknown.
Elsewhere, President Biden announced a total of $150 million in grants for research as part of his ‘moonshot’ initiative to combat cancer. The strategic focus is on reducing cancer-related deaths without a second-term bid. This initiative is a culmination of the administration’s effort to leverage federal funding to create innovative cancer treatments.
What caught attention, however, is whether Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate to spark debates about apostrophes. A battle on grammar norms is on the horizon, with linguistics enthusiasts heatedly discussing the rules for possessive proper names ending in ‘S.’
Despite the debates, the Harris campaign, as yet, has not taken a clear stance. There have been inconsistencies in the use of apostrophes, creating more controversy among the grammar enthusiasts.
In other developments, the U.S. approved $20 billion in arms sales to Israel, which include fighter jets and advanced missiles. This is seen as a pivotal move, considering the mounting concerns of Israel’s probable involvement in a wider Middle East conflict.
Concurrently, Missouri is set to decide on a constitutional amendment guaranteeing the right to abortion, thereby reversing the state’s near-total ban. With sufficient signatures from registered voters, the initiative petition has already qualified for the general election in November.
