Social Media Manager With the next presidential election being less than three months away, American citizens were eagerly awaiting the first debate between former President Donald J. Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris which took place on September 10, 2024. The United States Presidential Debates are a series of debates that are held before the presidential election. Both candidates have committed supporters and contrasting policies, so it was a shock to no one when tension grew between the Republican and Democratic sides. According to several flash polls, the majority of registered voters who watched the debate saw Kamala Harris as the winner. The data showed that most viewers believed that Harris outperformed Trump. Many also declared that she outdid Joe Biden’s performance when he went on stage to debate Trump. According to post poll data, most debate watchers proclaimed Harris won in a 63% to 37% poll, and the same voters were fairly evenly split before the debate started. After the event, around 96% of Harris supporters agreed that their contender did a much better job, whereas a smaller percentage of 69% of Trump supporters who watched the debate said that he did a better job. There are many reasons why voters are strongly opinionated on who the better candidate is but a main reason is policy and these two candidates have extremely different policies. Policies regarding immigration, gun control, and healthcare are three themes that have been the topic of discussion for years so it is no surprise that Trump and Harris are clashing over these as well. For example, when it comes to immigration, Harris and Trump have differing approaches to border security. Both of them have increased border security during their time in office. Harris wants to introduce a bill that would increase the number of border security agents, while Trump wants to focus on deportation and completing the wall at the border. Another example of the two candidates conflicting is the conversation on gun control. Harris would like to implement pre-purchase background checks for anyone under the age of twenty-one, as well as introduce the Bipartisan Safer Communicates Act. The Act would help create solutions to reduce domestic and community violence as well as help introduce solutions to address mass and school shootings. Additionally, the Act would add funding to improve mental health problems that affect young people. On the other hand, Trump wants to expand concealed carrying rights, which would allow permit holders to drive across state lines without restrictions or permits. Lastly, healthcare is another point of discussion for the two candidates. Harris has been clear about her support for expanding and protecting Medicare, so that more patients have access and rights to healthcare that is affordable. On the other side of this debate, Trump tried and was successful several times in cutting funding for Medicare. Either way, both parties are confident that their policies are the best next steps for the country. After the results of the first presidential debate, Trump stated that he will not be joining Harris on another debate stage again, even though Harris has said she’s ready for the next one anytime. No matter who the citizens of the United States see as the right candidate for the country, it appears that the majority sided with Harris after the first debate. Laramee Minor
Staff Writer From meeting in 2011 to a diss track battle in 2024, Drake and Kendrick Lamar have an abundance of history between them. Both Drake and Lamar are considered two of the greatest rappers of all time. In the early stages of their careers, the two were known to collaborate on each other’s musical projects, but in recent years friendship has turned into an explosion of insults towards one another. The majority of the drama started when Drake released his song, “First Person Shooter,” which featured another big name, J. Cole. The song featured lyrics stating Drake, Cole, and Lamar were some of the greatest rappers of all time. One of Cole’s verses stated, “Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me? We the big three like we started a league.” However, Lamar did not view this as a compliment, and he quickly fired back with his song, “Like That,” where he explained that he is confident that he is the best. Lamar fired back by stating, “...the Big Three? …it’s just big me.” Not long after this, Cole decided he did not want to be a part of the dramatics and apologized to Lamar during a concert. It was there that Cole explained he felt terrible about his actions and vowed to #BeeBetter in the future; however, Drake went in a different direction when he started to counter Lamar’s lyrics in his own songs. This quickly sparked arguably one of the biggest events that has ever happened in rap music. Shortly after Cole’s apology, Drake released his diss track, “Push Ups.” Throughout the song, Drake threw insults by saying not only is Drake better than Lamar, but so are several other artists. He retorts, “You ain’t in no big three, SZA got you wiped down, Travis got you wiped down, Savage got you wiped down.” As one can imagine, Lamar did not take this lightly and struck back at Drake with his six-minute song, “Euphoria.” Every second of the song was dedicated to insulting Drake. His viral verse reads: “I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress.” It did not end there; Lamar did not give Drake a chance to respond by dropping his next diss track, “6:16 in LA.” Throughout this song, Lamar explained that he hates bullies like Drake and how much of a terrible person he is. Drake then responded to Lamar’s insults with his song, “Family Matters,” which arrived on streaming platforms just 14 hours after Kendrick Lamar dropped, “6:16 in LA.” Throughout the entirety of the song, Drake jabs at not only Kenrick himself but Lamar’s family and love life. Lamar did not hesitate to drop his third diss track towards Drake entitled “Meet the Grahams.” With this song, Lamar slammed Drake for being a “deadbeat” father. He ended the song by stating, “... a rap battle, this is a lifelong battle with yourself.” It had not even been 24 hours when Lamar released his fourth and final song, “Not Like Us,” where Lamar referred to Drake’s criminal record. Lamar’s final song rapidly became the favorite as it charted higher in the Billboard Top 100, higher than any of the other songs released. Even though Drake did respond to the allegations with his song “The Heart Pt. 6,” which he denied any wrongdoing, it became clear that for the most part fans saw Lamar as the winner of the feud. Lamar’s “Not Like Us" and "Euphoria” completely topped the charts with "Not Like Us," debuting as number one and “Euphoria” charting as number three on the Billboard Top 100 Charts. Lamar’s songs have further gone mega viral on social media. Despite all the drama, the Drake v. K-Dot diss track battle will go down in history and will always be remembered as the time when two of the greatest rappers fought to see who was truly number one. Asher Montano

Staff Writer Since September of 2023, Swifties and football fans have debated whether or not Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are compatible. Swift attended multiple of Kelce's football games before their relationship was officially established. Many Swifties across the world suspected the couple had something going on, especially when he attended her Eras Tour July 2023. On April 9, 2024, BHS students were asked their opinions regarding Taylor Swift, known for her music career, Travis Kelce, known for his football career, and their controversial love story. Plenty of students at Bonneville dislike the couple. One student believes Swift and Kelce are in"a fake relationship" for NFL marketing and "driving up the audience." The student believes that the marketing of their relationship is only to help the chiefs to get more people to the games. Many students at Bonneville believe their relationship is just for clout or attention. While some students noted a general disinterest in the couple, many swifties came to defend them. One of the students remarked that they like the couple and “they should stay together for a while because Swift seems happy and I think Kelce could use some of that happiness.” Like this Swiftie, many more expressed their hopefulness regarding the star's love life; her fans simply want to see her happy. Not only has the relationship stirred fans and critics alike, but a Super Bowl engagement rumor caused even more noise in the press. There were rumors on social media that Kelce was going to propose at the superbowl if the Chiefs won. His team did win; however, he did not propose. Another BHS student, who was interviewed about the rumor, stated that they "don't think he should have [proposed] because a proposal is supposed to be special." While some students were concerned about the NFL's reputation, many agreed that asking Swift to marry Kelce should be a private conversation. Many students also agreed that a proposal would have been too soon because they have been dating for less than a year. Swift attends as many of his games as she can. After Swift started to appear at many of Kelce's football games, some football fans were upset by seeing her on the screen and not the game. Many students believe that blaming Swift for being on TV during the game is uncalled for as she cannot control when she is on camera. Some people think she should just leave the games when she pops up on screen so often. One student thinks that "she deserves to support her boyfriend." As long as her boyfriend does football everyone knows she is going to attend as many games as she can to support him. The couple has received mixed emotions from football fans and Swifties The debate of whether Swift and Kelce are compatible will continue as long as the couple is together. Some students at Bonneville believe it is for attention for the NFL. A Swiftie simply stated that they just want Swift to be happy with whoever she dates. No matter what people see from their relationship their names will always be splashed across headlines. Joanna Dickson
