 At least 22 killed in RSF attack on Sudan's al-Fashir, activist group says A pro-democracy group said Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) killed at least 22 people in an attack on the city of al-Fashir in the western Darfur region on Saturday, though the paramilitary force denied launching an assault. The al-Fashir Resistance Committees said on Facebook that the RSF had fired artillery shells on markets, hospitals and apartments in a surge of violence after weeks of stalemate on that front in the country's civil war, Reuters reported.

Biden is also likely to voice support for a constitutional amendment that would limit immunity for presidents and certain other officeholders after the court ruled in July that pr...

Cheung claimed there “is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party … that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone ‘better,'” citing former President Obama’s lack of endorsement to date, though Obama is expected to back Harris publicly soon. “Therefore, it would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds,” Cheung s...

 "I'm grateful to the woman most responsible for my presence here today, my mother, Shyamala Gopalan Harris. When she came here from India at the age of 19, she maybe didn't imagine this moment. But she believed so deeply in America where a moment like this is possible," said Kamala Harris.  Harris’s mother, Shyamala Gopalan, who came to America young and alone, made a career as a breast cancer researcher before dying of cancer in 2009. Harris remains close to her mother’s side of the family — one of her brightest childhood memories was walking down the beach hand in hand with her Indian grandfather, PV Gopalan. In fact, it was her grandfather (a staunch supporter of women's education) who instilled confidence in 19-year-old Shyamala when she won admission to a PhD program at the University of California, Berkeley (without anyone in the family knowing she had applied). He did not hesitate to pay, even though it was a lot of money for a civil servant. "One thi...
