Fox News: Harris paid Oprah $1 million in failed bid to help campaign: report
Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign spent heavily on celebrity endorsements during her unsuccessful presidential bid, including $1 million to Oprah Winfrey's Harpo Productions after a town hall event. The campaign also invested in appearances on popular platforms like the "Call Her Daddy" podcast.
Despite these expenditures, which included significant amounts on swing state events, critics argue that the campaign lacked a compelling message and connection to the administration's unpopularity. Republican strategist Brad Todd emphasized that money alone cannot secure electoral success.

The Imaginative Conservative: Trump's Victory & the True Border Crisis
Donald Trump's victory reflects a significant portion of Americans who prioritize the need for borders in society, particularly in response to concerns over illegal immigration and economic issues. The 2024 election highlighted a divide between those who embrace a borderless existence and those who advocate for defined boundaries in various aspects of life.
This desire for borders is seen as a response to a cultural shift towards relativism, where objective truths are often dismissed. As young people increasingly seek authoritative voices and timeless values, there is a growing trend towards conservatism. The hope is that this renewed focus on borders will coexist with individual freedoms, while also recognizing the potential risks of authoritarianism.

Le Monde: 'Derrida's reception in France suffers from a simplistic use of the terms deconstruction'
Benoît Peeters discusses the global reception of Jacques Derrida's work, noting a decline in the popularity of Derridism in the U.S. and a misunderstanding of "deconstruction" in France. Despite this, interest in his philosophy remains significant across various regions.
Peeters also addresses the impact of Martin Heidegger's Nazi ties on Derrida's reception, suggesting that while Derrida's early work was influenced by Heidegger, his later writings shifted focus towards political and ethical issues, distancing him from Heidegger's legacy.
