Former Bush campaign manager Karl Rove joined Fox News on Friday and predicted Vice President Kamala Harris will soon have a solid lead over Donald Trump in the polls. “So let’s talk about where the race is, because in some battleground states, the polls seem to have been narrowing. Let’s put it up here Arizona. Trump still leads, though one poll has got Harris up by two. Same thing in Nevada. Wisconsin, Trump holds a very narrowly missed Michigan. Trump is ahead, but Harris is up 11 in one new poll, which I think might be an outlier. Trump continues to lead in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia. He’s still got the advantage, Karl, but she’s gaining momentum, there’s no question,” began anchor John Roberts.

In fact, in a 1980 interview with "People," she said, “They can use my name for equal rights, but I don’t get out there and raise hell because I’ve been so liberated, I have nothing to squawk about.”Ball empowered women by example—and...

ABU DHABI – Marlon Vera plans on making Deiveson Figueiredo pay if he shoots on him.
Vera (23-9-1 MMA, 15-8 UFC) will look to rebound from his title loss when he takes on Figueiredo (23-3-1 MMA, 12-3-1 UFC) on Saturday’s UFC on ABC 7 (ABC, ESPN2, ESPN+) main card at Etihad Arena.
Former flyweight champion Figueiredo has shown off his ground game since moving up to 135 pounds, defeating Rob Font and then submitting Cody Garbrandt. Vera is expecting a similar approach from the Brazilian.
