PHOENIX — Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s campaign told a Pennsylvania court that he will be endorsing former President Donald Trump, ahead of his own Friday afternoon announcement putting to rest a tumultuous independent presidential campaign. The filing came shortly before Kennedy was set to take the stage at an Arizona press conference where he's expected to formally end his presidential campaign. Initially, Kennedy sought the Democratic presidential nomination, but he decided in October 2023 to run as an independent bid instead. The Kennedy campaign spent more than $8 million on campaign consulting from Accelevate 2020 LLC, a group that also does ballot-access work. Overall, the campaign effectively raised what it spent — it amassed $57.6 million and spent almost $54 million through July.

Still, the Trump campaign has long worried that Kennedy’s campaign, built on conspiracies and anti-vaccine rhetoric, pulled directly from their side, especially in a handful of key states. Women were more likely to support Kennedy than men, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey, though other polls haven’t shown a meaningful difference.

CNN —Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced at a news conference in Phoenix Friday that he is suspending his campaign and endorsing Trump. Kennedy insisted that he was not ending his campaign, but he noted that he will withdraw his name from appearing on ballots in swing states. If you live in a blue state, you can vote for me without harming — or helping — President Trump or Vice President Harris. Kennedy running mate Nicole Shanahan praised him following his announcement and urged him to “save our children” in a social media post. But Kennedy’s support for Trump was clear Friday afternoon.

☆ I'm a mom of 4 and have done back-to-school shopping for over a decade. These are the 3 things I've learned.

Read previewBack in the 80s and 90s, school shopping seemed straightforward and relatively inexpensive. As the parent of four children who's been back-to-school shopping for over a decade, I have realized the real key to surviving this time of year is being creative. With two in middle school and two in college, back-to-school shopping costs me almost as much as (if not more than) our family's most expensive holiday, Christmas. If nothing works out from last year's clothing, many secondhand stores will buy the kid's clothes that no longer fit. If they choose to spend more on school supplies, it will impact the amount they are allowed to spend on clothes.

AdvertisementMy grandparents raised my brother and me"They were like drill sergeants," my aunt relayed to me on one of the evenings when I stayed over at her house. Part of that upbringing, as children of immigrants, meant children were second-class citizens, meant to be seen and not heard. For the first time, my grandparents got to be grandparents with my kids. My feelings of envy for the relationship my grandparents were creating with my kids disappeared and were replaced with gratitude. When I look back at pictures of them with my kids, I tell them how much my grandparents loved them.

New York residency is especially important to Mr. Kennedy because his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, lists California as her home. Mr. Kennedy, 70, an environmental lawyer, spends most of his time at a home in Los Angeles that he shares with his wife, the actress Cheryl Hines. “New York has been his residence continuously since 1964, and Mr. Kennedy has deep ties to it,” Mr. Savino said in the statement. Mr. Kennedy revealed the bear-dumping in a video he posted on social media just before a critical New Yorker profile that included the same anecdote was published. After the bear story became public — resulting in a barrage of public criticism and mockery — Mr. Kennedy sought to fire back, placing a post on X.com on Tuesday, attacking the “mainstream media.”“The more you smear me,” Mr. Kennedy wrote, “the more I’ll keep speaking.”

“Would it put a virus on your computer?” Ms. Parlapiano said. Tubi has exploded in popularity over the last 18 months, establishing itself as one of the most popular streaming outfits in the United States. It now consistently outranks Peacock, Max, Paramount+ and Apple TV+ in total viewing time, according to Nielsen — and is drawing even with Disney+. The streaming service, which is owned by the Fox Corporation, runs a different business model from those competitors. And it comfortably commands more engagement than those peers, according to Nielsen.

And it has different meanings in African American English versus the Mainstream US English more likely spoken by white folks. So when white people unfamiliar with African American English hear that rise and fall, they think the speaker is being kind of argumentative. How "Black" Harris sounds, in other words, is in the ear of the beholder. In 2022, she compared the way Harris talks to audio clips of the comedian Maya Rudolph doing her impression of Harris on "Saturday Night Live."

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent presidential campaign is disappearing — both on the trail and in the polls. Kennedy’s public poll numbers are dropping, from around 9% or 10% in national surveys before Biden dropped out, to about half that level now. The Kennedy campaign did not respond to questions for this article. The Kennedy and Trump campaigns have not commented or provided any details about whether Trump made Kennedy a specific offer. Kennedy posted a video on Aug. 2 announcing an endorsement from Russell Brand, the actor and comedian who has been accused of sexual assault by multiple women.

This is particularly true for Black Latinos, according to the authors. That’s why Lopez argues in the report that asking people about their “street race” could provide necessary insight into the different ways Latinos are racially categorized. According to the Pew Research Center, Black Latinos are more likely than non-Black Latinos to report having experienced discrimination based on race. Lopez and the co-authors of the report say that additional questions could still be added to official forms, including the “street race” question. “But we also need a question on perceived race.”For more from NBC Latino, sign up for our weekly newsletter.

Staying hydrated during the summer season has always been important but it's even more vital as temperatures rise to record highs. To keep your electrolytes at a normal level, there are seven elements that should be included in the foods and drinks you consume, in moderation, according to Cleveland Clinic:MagnesiumSodiumCalciumPotassiumPhosphateChlorideBicarbonateDrinking water is "the best way for us to hydrate," says Nicole Antes, a registered dietitian nutritionist, but when water is filtered, it can lose some of its healthy minerals. Antes recommends adding trace mineral drops that include minerals like sodium, potassium and magnesium to increase the benefits you get from drinking water. You can also buy mineralized water for those same perks. And if you're looking for other beverages, or foods, to stay hydrated, Antes has a list you can reference.

At least 8,078 confirmed Oropouche cases, including two fatal cases, have been reported in the Americas. That’s 90% of all confirmed Oropouche cases in the Americas and a significant jump from the 832 cases Brazil reported last year.
