Your lookahead horoscope: March 29, 2026

  IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY No matter how angry you may get about what is taking place in the world this year you must keep a sense of perspective and recognize that in the greater scheme of things it’s all part of the cosmic plan. If nothing else you will sleep better. ARIES (March 21 - April 20): This is your time of year and so many things are going well for you now, but don’t fall into the trap of believing that the good times will last forever. The approaching full moon will upset a few apple carts, so get ready to protect yourself. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21): The good things you have done for other people will be repaid in full this week as Venus enters your sign. As a bonus, you will find it easier to reach out to people whose affection you crave - and they will reach out to you as well. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21): Gemini may be one of the zodiac’s air signs, and therefore more mental than emotional in nature, but you must not rely entirely on logic over the next few days. Wh...

Biden and Trump Agree to Two Presidential Debates Ahead of 2024 Election

 

In a surprising turn of events, U.S. President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have agreed to participate in two general election debates. The first debate is scheduled for June 27, hosted by CNN, and the second will take place on September 10, hosted by ABC. This sets the stage for their first presidential face-off, just over a month away.

The quick agreement on the debate timetable followed Biden’s announcement that he would not participate in the fall presidential debates sponsored by the nonpartisan commission that has organized them for more than three decades. Instead, Biden’s campaign proposed that media outlets directly organize the debates between the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees.

The unusually early timing of the first debate means that neither Biden nor Trump will have formally accepted their party’s nomination. Hours after Biden’s announcement, he accepted an invitation from CNN, playfully adding, “Over to you, Donald.” Trump, who had previously insisted he would debate Biden anytime and anywhere, confirmed his participation on Truth Social, saying, “Let’s get ready to Rumble!!!” Soon after, they agreed to the second debate on ABC.

The swiftness with which these debates were arranged reflects each candidate’s strategy. Trump and his team believe the debates will highlight voters’ concerns about Biden’s age and competence, while Biden’s team aims to remind voters of why they voted Trump out of the White House four years ago. These debates are particularly crucial in a year when voters express underwhelming enthusiasm for their choices and have concerns about the candidates’ advanced ages—Biden is 81, and Trump is 77.

As the election season heats up, all eyes will be on these debates, where the two candidates will face off in a high-stakes showdown. The outcome could significantly impact the trajectory of the 2024 election, making these debates a critical moment on the political calendar.

Stay tuned for more updates as the candidates prepare to spar on the national stage!
