Kamala Harris is once again on the cover of TIME magazine. But the artwork—a sketch of the vice president surrounded by supporters holding her campaign signs aloft—isn’t for an interview. Instead, it’s for a story by Charlotte Alter with the headline: “The Reintroduction of Kamala Harris.” The piece looks at how Harris has “pulled off the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history” following her replacement of President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket. Harris also featured on the cover of the magazine last month, literally stepping into the frame as Biden exits. Her reappearance on the hallowed cover comes amid Republican attacks on Harris over her lack of media interviews since obtaining the Democratic nomination, with her most recent TV interviews coming in June, according to Politico. Last week, Harris said she wants to “get an interview scheduled before the end of the month.”The reintroduction of Kamala Harris https://t.co/noW5TOgawP pic.twitter.com/iLmQIhxOeF— TIME (@TIME) August 12, 2024

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

Usha Vance tried to walk back her husband’s comments about “childless cat ladies,” but couldn’t quite explain away his misogynistic rhetoric. In a taped interview that aired on Fox & Friends Monday, Vance spun her own toned-down interpretation of J.D. Vance calling Democrats “a bunch of childless cat ladies” who “want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.” She said that, unlike everyone else, she’d actually paid attention to the “context” of his quote. “The reality is, he made a quip in service of making a point that he wanted to make that was substantive, and it had...

J.D. Vance’s Wife Miserably Fails at Defending “Childless Cat Ladies”

Of all the voter demographics you don’t want to piss off, “childless cat ladies” are probably near the top. In the 11 days since J.D. Vance was announced as former president Donald Trump’s running mate, the Ohio senator hasn’t done himself any favors. He made an offhand joke about Diet Mountain Dew that was so unbearably awkward it made national headlines. We learned just how cynical his far-right, anti-LGBTQ+ MAGA pivot really was when news broke that he once brought baked goods to a trans friend recovering from top surgery. Polls have detected anomalously low favorability ratings for a brand-new VP pick, leading many political pundits to question whether Republicans will get “buyers’ remorse” over the pick.
