President Joe Biden posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor on Friday to General Richard E. Cavazos, a former San Antonio resident who displayed heroism and self-sacrifice in combat.

Among the 39 Americans pardoned by President Joe Biden is Nathaniel David Reed, a 46-year-old San Antonio man who was convicted of non-violent offenses when he was 21.

It’s been nearly 70 years since there last was a presidential election rematch, but it has occurred more than people might think in U.S. history.

President Biden and his family announced Saturday that their beloved German Shepherd, Champ, has passed away.

SAN ANTONIO – Long-running corruption in Central America will be the biggest challenge confronting Vice President Kamala Harris, said Dr. Betsy Smith, Ph.D, chair of the department of political science at St. Mary’s University and an expert on Democratic crises in Latin America. “We really have to consider how we’re going to solve the problem when the people who can help us solve the problem are a part of the problem,” Smith said. President Biden has made Vice President Harris his point person in Central America, the same role he had in the Obama administration during the migrant surges in 2014 and 2015. AdAsking Harris to take on the root causes of the current influx at the border, “makes a lot of sense,” Smith said. “This is really a first chance to show her skills and to show her abilities as the vice president,” Smith said.
