Democratic Conference

Democrats have gathered in Denver for the two-day What’s Next conference following a historic blue wave of midterm election wins. Also Thursday, President Donald Trump told Vice President JD Vance to shift his focus away from the Iran war and toward what he says is corruption and crime in Democratic-controlled cities and states. Two Democratic senators launched an investigation into whether Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. lied to Congress about his reason for a 2019 trip to Samoa after AP and The Guardian published documents in August refuting his testimony that the trip had “nothing to do with vaccines.”
