Aaron Rodgers was a candidate to be Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate this year, but it ultimately did not pan out. However, with his staunch stances on political and public health issues, as well as seemingly even dipping his toes in the political waters, one gambling website says there is a chance he can actually win the election in four years. And, as a matter of fact, Bookies likes those odds more than they like Rodgers winning a Super Bowl. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM Bookies currently has odds set that Rodgers would win as an independent at 30-1, meaning if you bet $100, you could win $3,000. For context, with Rodgers' New York Jets sitting…

The majority in the House of Representatives appears within reach for Republicans, who have already won control of the Senate and White House. Associated Press race projections show Republicans holding 209 seats compared to 196 seats for Democrats as of Thursday afternoon. A total of five sitting House lawmakers are projected to lose their re-election bids so far – three Republicans and two Democrats. Several races involving GOP incumbents in California are still too close to call and are likely to be pivotal to the House majority.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith told the co-hosts of "The View" he was not surprised by the outcome of the 2024 election, saying President-elect Donald Trump's victory was clear "a mile away." "I was surprised at how lopsided it was. I was not surprised by the outcome. I saw the outcome coming from a mile away. You have to take into account, listen, we respect our President Joe Biden, but here’s the reality. He got into office. He promised to be a transitional president, to be a stopgap, to pave the way for somebody else to come on board," Smith said, noting the Democrats' success in the 2022 midterms Smith continued to describe the Democratic Party's situation after the preside…

Democratic Party strategist and former Bill Clinton adviser James Carville admitted he was left reeling and "perplexed" following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory Tuesday night. Sounding a depressed note, he conceded, "I’m in a very, very dark tunnel right now." In a quick YouTube update, the 80-year-old pundit lamented that people chose to re-elect Trump despite his baggage and claimed that he would have to "reevaluate" the Democratic Party strategy and his own view of America following the Trump win. "I just have to get over the fact that I’m 80-years-old and I live in a country that has put [in] a felonious bigot, who has no idea of what the world is like – is t…

In her quest to become the first female president, Vice President Kamala Harris portrayed herself as a champion of women's rights, putting abortion rights at the forefront of her campaign. But she fell short, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem explains in an interview, because in doing so, Harris and the Democrats failed to meet voters where they are. "I think what was so interesting during this campaign is we consistently saw Kamala Harris and the Democrats try to put women in a box," Noem told Fox News Digital. "They tried to define women as only caring about abortion and their health care. They didn't really give them due credit for being the individuals out there that ar…

Speculation is surging that Susie Wiles, a veteran political operative who worked closely with President-elect Trump during his campaign, could take a top position in his new administration. Sources within Trump's transition team and others close to the former president's campaign confirmed to Fox News that Wiles is reportedly the frontrunner for White House chief of staff — the person who oversees the Executive Office of the President. Trump, during his victory celebration in West Palm Beach, Florida, late Tuesday night, gave special thanks to Wiles for her prominent role throughout the campaign. "Let me also express my tremendous appreciation for Susie [Wiles] and Chri…

Moderate Republicans broke heavily for President-elect Trump despite the efforts of opponents such as Republican former Rep. Liz Cheney. Trump carried Republicans who didn’t identify as a "MAGA Republican" 74%-22% nationwide in Tuesday’s election, according to Fox News voter analysis. The result comes as Vice President Kamala Harris spent much of the last few weeks of the campaign making an appeal to moderate Republicans, hoping to siphon off votes from members of the party who have typically attempted to distance themselves from Trump and his "Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement." LIZ CHENEY ACKNOWLEDGES TRUMP'S VICTORY: 'WE HAVE A NEW PRESIDENT-ELECT' At the center…

Feeling sleepy during the day could signal a more serious issue for some groups. A new study published in the journal Neurology revealed a possible connection between daytime sleepiness in older people and dementia risk. People who lack enthusiasm for activities and feel sleepy during the day were found to have a higher risk of developing a condition called motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR). ‘HOW MUCH SLEEP IS TOO MUCH?’: ASK A DOCTOR MCR can cause people to walk at slower speeds and experience memory issues – and it can occur before dementia develops. The study, led by Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx, New York, included 445 participants averaging 76 …

It's been over a year since I last snuggled with my baby nephew, Kfir. Nearly 390 days since his older brother, Ariel, raced into my loving arms. Instead, baby Kfir, kidnapped at just 9 months old, has spent more of his life as a captive than free, with the horrifying distinction of being the youngest hostage in Gaza. And like millions of you around the world, the last time I saw my redheaded nephews' faces was in the horrifying footage of Hamas terrorists abducting them along with my sister-in-law, Shiri, on Oct. 7, 2023. For us, it's still Oct. 7, 2023. We are frozen in time. My brother, Yarden, is also a hostage - separated from his wife and kids. It's been nearly a ye…

President Xi Jinping called President-elect Trump to congratulate him on his election win, and warned the U.S. would "gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation" with China. The message comes as the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) must prepare for deeper tensions as Trump has vowed to bring back the trade war of his last presidency with blanket tariffs. "Xi Jinping noted that history tells us that both countries stand to gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation. A China-U.S. relationship with stable, healthy and sustainable development serves the common interests of the two countries," China’s foreign ministry said in a readout of the conversation. "It is…

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Thursday rejected calls for a no-confidence vote after he fired his finance minister in a signal that his coalition government was collapsing, saying he will lead the country with a minority government until early next year. Demands for immediate elections were issued by the leader of the largest opposition bloc in parliament, Friedrich Merz of the center-right Christian Democrats, after Scholz fired Finance Minister Christian Lindner on Wednesday for proving uncooperative in his attempts to repair the economy. "The finance minister shows no willingness to implement the offer for the good of our country. I do not want to subject our coun…

It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Pollsters and pundits promised that the 2024 presidential election between Vice President Kamala Harris and, now, President-elect Donald Trump would be a nail-biter. But in the end, it was a blowout, and it opens the door for Republicans to grasp generational power. Since 1994, when Americans signed up for the GOP’s Contract with America and ended four decades of Democratic control of the House of Representatives, our country has not had a truly dominant political party. BIG BOARD ANALYSIS: KAMALA HARRIS IS ‘SIGNIFICANTLY’ UNDERPERFORMING WITH YOUNGER VOTERS It has been a 50/50 society since then politically, with neither side able…

Following his massive election victory, President-elect Donald Trump is still scheduled for sentencing in his Manhattan criminal case later this month, with presiding Judge Juan Merchan first ruling whether to dismiss the charges altogether after the Supreme Court's presidential immunity ruling earlier this year. Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records following his Manhattan criminal trial in May. District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office worked to prove that Trump falsified the business records to conceal a $130,000 payment to former porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election to quiet her claims of an alleged affair with Trump in 2006. …

One of the first-term Republican lawmakers key to the House GOP winning the majority in the last election is projected to lose his seat. Rep. Anthony D’Esposito, R-N.Y., a retired NYPD officer, was defeated by former local official Laura Gillen in New York’s 4th Congressional District on suburban Long Island, in the shadow of New York City, The Associated Press said Thursday.
