VOTES OF NO CONFIDENCE

PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN MAY BE looking across the Atlantic with trepidation as Britain's left-leaning Labour Party suffers heavy losses among Muslim voters across the country.

'OUR FOREIGN POLICY AND DOMESTIC REFORMS ARE TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN'

It is a well-known fact across the globe that the North Korean regime is irrational and unpredictable, but we have been consistent in strengthening our defense posture against the threat from North Korea since the Korean War, and I believe that their conventional capability is much inferior to that of the Korean military.
