Republican vs. Democrat: Who Failed Black America?

Fri, 26 Jun 2026 05:45:55 +0000

Stephen A. Smith hosts a powerful and passionate debate between Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson and conservative commentator Anton Daniels on one of the most important questions facing America today: Who has truly failed Black America?

From jobs, education, crime, immigration, family structure, and political accountability to the role of Democrats and Republicans in shaping Black communities, this conversation pulls no punches. Anton Daniels argues that personal responsibility and accountability are the keys to success, while Tharon Johnson contends that leadership, policy, and investment in communities remain critical to improving outcomes.

The result is an intense, thought-provoking discussion that challenges conventional wisdom from both sides of the political aisle.

Do Democrats deserve credit for Black progress?
Have Republicans offered better solutions?
Is the biggest problem government policy or personal responsibility?

Watch the full debate and decide for yourself.

India Today World Exclusive: Russian President Vladimir Putin's Biggest & 1st Interview On

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 00:07:25 +0000

In an exclusive interview with India Today, Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed global geopolitics, stating "India is a major global player, not a British colony." He praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a "reliable person" who doesn't succumb to pressure. Putin discussed the Ukraine war, asserting "Kiev is the mother of all Russian cities" and claiming Russia was forced to support eastern Ukraine. He also commented on U.S. relations, revealing details of a five-hour meeting with Donald Trump's envoys and acknowledging American companies' desire to resume cooperation. Regarding the economy, Putin confirmed that over 90% of Russia-India transactions are in national currencies and clarified that a single BRICS currency is not an immediate goal. The discussion also covered future collaborations in high technology and the Gaza conflict, with Putin advocating for an independent Palestinian state.
