If Kamala Harris wins the election, it will be a huge disappointment for the Kremlin,” said Tatiana Stanovaya, the founder of R.Politik, a Russian political consultancy now based in France. “Not because they expect some concrete anti-Russian steps but because the nature of American politics will become, from their point of view, irrational and unpragmatic and self-destructive.”

Two recent Supreme Court rulings on congressional redistricting have different short-term consequences for Black voters in the 2024 election.
One ruling boosted Black voting power in Louisiana, while another decision upheld a South Carolina congressional map that reduced Black voting power.
But long-term, both rulings reflect a willingness to let legislatures do what they want, without effective judicial review

This year has felt like nonstop #news, with significant events coming on a weekly or even daily basis. But it's not unique in #history.
For example, there was 1940: War, the draft and FDR’s historic reelection.
1968: Assassinations, political turmoil and more war.
1973 had legal abortion, a historic peace deal, Watergate and plenty of political mayhem.

Where Javan leopards thrive, the diversity and abundance of other wildlife species is also enhanced, a new study shows.
Researchers used camera traps across Java from 2020 to 2022 to identify the richness of animal life in areas with more leopards.
Many of these species, such as barking deer and wild boar, are leopard prey, while others, such as dhole wild dogs and Javan rhinos, aren’t.
