Well, folks, we're going to get to all the news surrounding President Biden. Will he stay or will he go? Today, he has a big press conference at 5.30 p.m. Eastern time, which is after his bedtime. We are told that he's been trying to restrict his activities to between like 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. So he's really stretching himself by going all the way till 5.30 for this presser tonight. A lot of people talking about whether it is a make or break moment for him. The problem, of course, is that Dr. Jill Biden has super glued his ass to the floor in the Oval Office.
And there is no way to physically move him unless he wishes to be moved. We'll get to that in a moment. First, I have to discuss with you my trip to Capitol Hill yesterday. So as a human, I try to avoid Washington, D.C. as frequently as possible. There are nice buildings there. The problem is it's filled with government. And it turns out that government is filled with idiots. And so yesterday we did a congressional hearing. The hearing was in the House Judiciary Committee. And it was about issues surrounding a collusive relationship.
quasi-conspiratorial group called GARM, the Global Alliance for Responsible Media. That group is essentially a consortium of 90% of the advertising market. They sign up with GARM. GARM sets a pseudo-objective standard for what can be advertised on and what cannot be advertised on. That pseudo-objective standard, of course, cuts universally against conservatives. So what they do is they label unsafe sites like The Daily Wire or shows like mine or shows like Joe Rogan or places like X.
This is one of their goals. They tried to cudgel all of these social media sites or shows or conservative outlets into compliance with their idea of things that ought to be said. So I was on the Hill testifying about all of that. Here is some of my opening statement.
We're in the midst of a trust crisis in the world of media, which is because so many in the legacy media have lied in order to preserve left-leaning narratives. To take just the most recent example, we were told by the legacy media that President Biden was just fine. For years, anyone who questioned his health and mental fitness was trafficking in cheap fakes. And then President Biden went out and engaged in a full-scale mental collapse on stage in front of hundreds of millions of people.
So we can see why Americans, at least Americans who are not Democrats, do not trust the media. The question isn't really why the legacy media have lost Americans' trust. We know that answer. The question is why, despite that loss of trust, the legacy media continue to gain share in the advertising market. And the answer is simple. There is, in fact, an informal pressure system created by Democratic legislators, this White House, legacy media advertisers, and pseudo-objective brand safety organizations.
That system guarantees that advertising dollars flow only to left-wing media brands. And so the hearing was fairly long. It started about 10 a.m. It ended about 2.30 p.m. somewhere in that neighborhood. It was a little spicy. There were some Democrats who decided that they were not going to talk about the issue at hand, namely the collusive attempt by advertising agencies, social media bros, and government. Because again, Democrats have been pushing for
for intervention in these markets for years. And so what happens is that advertisers and social media bros, in an attempt to avoid the scrutiny of people like Dianne Feinstein, who has been consistently threatening until her death, obviously, she was consistently threatening social media for years with regulation. If they would not quote unquote regulate themselves, she's not the only one. There are members of the committee before whom I was speaking. People like ranking member Jerry Nadler,
People like head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, Pramila Jayapal, who have openly called for regulation of social media if social media allows messages they don't like.
They call it misinformation or hate speech, but it really is just messages they don't like. So instead of talking about all that, some of the Congress people decided that it would be fun to talk about other things. One of the things they kept saying over and over and over was Project 2025. Well, Democrats are trying to distract from the fact that they have a terrible record, but the record is, in fact, terrible, including, of course, a 40-year inflationary spiral. You've heard me talk for a long time about how you can actually save money with Pure Talk. Pure Talk is half the cost of other big phone providers. Now, you might be thinking, what's the catch? There's no way Pure Talk can offer unlimited talk, text,
and plenty of data for just 20 bucks a month. I say, well, I mean, just ask the thousands of my other listeners who have already switched over. They are loving America's most dependable 5G network. They love Pure Talk's US customer service, their selection of premium phones, the money they are saving month to month. So what exactly are you waiting for? It's time to start supporting companies who share your values, like creating American jobs and supporting our veterans.
It's time to switch your cell phone service over to Pure Talk. Plus, with no contract and a 30-day money-back guarantee, you've got nothing to lose. Visit puretalk.com slash Shapiro to upgrade your cell phone service to America's most dependable 5G network and save an extra 50% off your very first month of coverage.
That's puretalk.com slash Shapiro today. Again, puretalk.com slash Shapiro. Save an extra 50% off your very first month of coverage. I've been using Pure Talk myself for years at this point. Their coverage is excellent. And of course, I am saving money and they don't hate my values. Head over to puretalk.com slash Shapiro today to get started. So for those who don't know, the Democrats have been trying for the last week or so to try to misdirect away from the fact that their president is no longer sentient
By shouting Project 2025. So, for example, Joe Biden just the other day tweeted out Google Project 2025. Naturally, a lot of people then did Google Project 2025. So yesterday at the hearing, I'd say half the Democrats in the House Judiciary Committee decided to rail about Project 2025, which has literally nothing to do with the subject of this particular committee hearing. One of the people who is doing that was Representative Eric Swalwell, who I think
just kind of wanted to have a Twitter battle, but in real life. So we had a bit of a colorful exchange, the representative and I. Here is what that sounded like. Mr. Shapiro, thank you for joining us today. I think it is important that you're here as one of the leading conservative voices in the country. And the country has, in the last couple of weeks, talked a lot about and Googled Project 2025. It's one of the most Googled projects
search terms right now and you're not going to get any censorship from me. So I just wanted to know
From your perspective, I think it would help us understand on just like a scale of zero to 100%, how much do you support Project 2025? I think like President Trump, I haven't looked all that deeply at Project 2025, but it seems that Democrats on this committee, sort of like Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, if they say Project 2025 enough, their presidential candidate becomes alive again.
So obviously, everybody in the room knew what I was saying was true, including Swalwell, who, to his credit, laughs because the reality, of course, is that he had Representative Hank Johnson. He came and he just said Project 2025 over and over and over and over. He had other members of Congress. You had Mary Mary Gay Scanlon from the state of Pennsylvania. She also was just referencing Project 2025 over and over and over. So they all know that what I'm saying is true, that this is an attempt to breathe life back into a failing candidacy.
And, you know, even Swalwell had to laugh at it because, again, true. But then Swalwell decided that he was just going to make his entire five minute questioning time about Project 2025, which I'll be honest with you, I haven't read. And the reason I haven't read it is because it's 922 pages. I promise you, Eric Swalwell has also not read Project 2025. Probably no one who's criticizing Project 2025 has read Project 2025.
Certainly, President Trump has not read Project 2025. So, yeah, Swalwell is questioning me about this. And what he's really questioning me about, I assume, is just being a conservative. And the idea is that being a conservative is just evil. That's that's the I don't think it went particularly well for Representative Swalwell here.
You probably want less bureaucracy, right? I do. I want less bureaucracy. You want more efficiency? I do. I want more efficiency. You want taxpayer money spent wisely? I do. Congrats on becoming a Republican. My parents would be proud. Mass deportations, it calls for that. Do you support that part?
I support the deportation of any illegal immigrant who's in the United States who is not of benefit to the generalized American public. So if they're picking agriculture that puts food on the tables of everyday Americans, they've never committed a crime inside the United States, they didn't come across with documents, should they be deported? If they have not paid taxes and if their draw on the taxpayer benefits are larger than the contribution they are making to the economy or if they're involved in criminal activity, they should be deported. How do we measure that?
The same way that the IRS measures my income every year. It seems like if the IRS can track down every aspect of every receipt that I've ever submitted, and they can do so for hundreds of millions of other Americans, they can do that for illegal immigrants as well, except for the fact that no one knows how many are in the country thanks to this administration. So you would be cool with creating a system where they could pay those taxes if they wanted to and then stay and work and put food on our table? It depends on how long it would take for them to pay the taxes, and they would also have to go presumably to the back of the line, although I'm not sure why I'm testifying about immigration policy at this point.
How about banning the abortion pill? That's part of Project 2025. Do you support that part? I think that that's a state-by-state issue on a personal level. I'm just asking you. Sure. I'm a fully pro-life person, which means that I'm not in favor of the distribution of the abortion pill. Banning same-sex marriage. What about that part?
I am in favor of traditional marriage between a man and a woman, and I am perfectly fine with anyone having any sort of voluntary sexual arrangement they seek. That's a different thing from whether the government should attach benefits to that personal relationship. But you think it's a sin to have same-sex marriage? I mean, I'm confused. Are you asking me as a religious Jew what I think about biblically? I'm just asking, is it a sin to be gay? Is it a sin to be gay? I mean, would...
How long do we have here? Two minutes? I mean, if the basic idea is that sexual orientation is up for government regulation, I'm not in favor of the government regulating the private consenting sexual activity of adults. That is a different thing, once again, from whether the government ought to engage in actual benefits for particular sexual arrangements that adults make. But again, just you to me, is it a sin or not? From a religious Jewish perspective, orientation is not a sin, but activity is. That's also the same perspective of most major religions, so far as I'm aware. Okay.
And how about cutting Social Security? Do you support that part of 2025? I'm not sure what Project 2025's position on Social Security is. I'm in favor of the restructuring of Social Security along the lines of privatization and lowering and increasing the retirement age because you, as well as every other congressperson, know Social Security is going to go bankrupt, and yet everyone seems to have an interest in lying about it for the next decade and a half until we have to take austerity measures or radically increase inflation or taxes.
And bans against books about slavery. Do you support that part? Why would I possibly be in favor of bans about books about slavery? That would be absolutely ridiculous. What I am in favor of is the idea that school libraries should be able to make decisions along the lines of what exactly is appropriate for, say, a seventh grader and whether they ought to be treated to cartoons and genderqueer. That's not quite the same thing. And just...
because we found some receipts. You did say, I think homosexual activity is a sin. Yes, I'm a religious Jew, that's true. Are you sure there's a genetic component to sexual orientation? You found me out. But the view of all religious people I know has always been that sexual behavior is something that is up to you. And you said, I may have a desire to sleep with many women, but I do not. I agree with me. Yes, that's true. Congratulations on your, yeah. I'm sure it's very hard to restrain yourself. Mr. Chairman, I just want to shift to Alvin Bragg
He was supposed to be here this week. And then he starts randomly talking about Alvin Bragg and the hearings. I would have jumped in at this point and said that Eric Swallow is probably the last person in America who should talk about the difficulty of struggling with, for example, men as a genetic matter wanting to sleep with many women.
Eric Swalwell's personal history is quite checkered. I decided not to bring that up in the congressional hearing. But again, it just shows you what Democrats are trying to do. Do they actually want to talk about the issues that are on the table? Of course not. What they actually want to do is misdirect to a bunch of issues they don't fully understand. And how many questions can you be asked by a congressperson where the premise is just completely wrong?
So didn't go amazing for Representative Swalwell. And we hope he gets well soon. In any case, back to the topic of the actual hearing. One of the things that became clear from the House Judiciary Committee report is that the Global Alliance on Responsible Media didn't just target The Daily Wire, which they suggested was well out of bounds for advertisers or Joe Rogan. They also targeted Twitter slash X.
The report said that Garm tried to direct all of its members, corporate giants who together account for 90% of global advertising dollars, to, quote, stop all paid advertisement on the platform after Elon Musk purchased it. And we have the emails. Rob Rakowitz, who is the head of Garm, he was emailed by...
One of the advertisers or one of the advertising agencies says, says, hi, Rob, I'm reaching out to ask you if it's possible to arrange a meeting and hear more about your perspectives about the Twitter situation and a possible boycott from many companies. And Rakowitz then responded, quote, hi, both. This is good. I did some tweaking on the edges to help contextualize who we are and what we are doing. I'd like to point out that nowhere in this email is the you may recognize my name from being the idiot who challenged Musk on brand safety issues. Since then, they are 80 percent below revenue forecasts. Happy face emoji.
This prompted Elon Musk to announce today that X has no choice but to file suit against the perpetrators and collaborators in the advertising boycott racket. Hopefully some states will consider criminal prosecution. So some actual positive effects from a congressional hearing other than some viral moments. Okay, now onto the problems with the presidential candidate.
Again, the Democrats are going to keep saying Project 2025, but the reality is that most Americans don't know what that is, don't care what it is. And most Americans, that includes Donald Trump. If you think that Donald Trump has been browsing Project 2025 while he sits on the toilet and tweets, you're wrong. That's not a thing that Donald Trump has ever done or will ever do.
The real issue for most Americans at this point is, will the current president of the United States survive to even make the election? Well, Democrats, Americans, everybody is concerned that President Biden may not survive to make it to the elections, that he might be dead meat. But speaking of meat, you need the best meat, like actual meat, not like, not like...

He was not doing an amazing job here. Just a couple of his flubs from a speech over at NATO.
The fact is that so many of my, let me put it this way. I'm very pleased that today all NATO members are making the pledge to expand our industrial base. President Truman said, quote, we hope to create a shield against aggression, the fear of aggression, and permit us to get on with the real business of creating a government and society. I mean, he's literally just reading off a piece of paper right there.
He's literally reading off a piece of paper and he's having some trouble. If you want to know what it sounds like when someone reads off a piece of paper and doesn't have trouble, go back to my original testimony yesterday, which you have to submit into the congressional record. And so typically you are reading. Then Biden also did a rally and he was rambling at the rally again, as he is fond of doing. Here's what that looked like. I was going to have a cat that looked like a man.
And it does. More minorities, more women, more labor. I'm serious. Think about it. Staring randomly at things. That's why we're strong. We're diverse. We're strong. We've got to stop looking at it. It's an asset. Things are not getting better. Things are not getting better. And the button on top of that particular story was placed there by one George Clooney. So let's be real about this. George Clooney is a little mad at Joe Biden because George Clooney's wife, Amal Clooney, wrote a horrifically anti-Semitic
report for the International Criminal Court suggesting the prosecution of the prime minister of Israel, as well as the defense minister of Israel. And the response to the Biden administration was not warm toward that. So Clooney's a little mad.
He had called up the president to yell at him. So as Joe Biden answered, then after they made up, made a little kissy face, then George Clooney held a big fundraiser for Joe Biden. And you'll recall that fundraiser because that fundraiser culminated in Barack Obama having to guide Joe Biden from the stage like a visiting angel. Like he holds his hand, he puts his hand on Joe Biden's back. He tries to remind him where he is. And then he guides the shuffling old man off the stage. You'll recall this. Well, now George Clooney puts out a piece in the New York Times
titled, I Love Joe Biden, But We Need a New Nominee. And just as fascinating in this piece...
as this piece is the provenance of this piece. What made this piece happen? According to Politico, before Hollywood icon and Democratic donor George Clooney published his buzzy and brutal New York Times op-ed yesterday, calling on Biden to step aside as the nominee, we're told he reached out to former President Barack Obama to give him a heads up. The two men who are friendly both attended the L.A. fundraiser Clooney referenced in his piece, where the actor said he'd beheld a diminished Biden and that the leader he interacted with was, quote, the same man we witnessed at the debate.
While Obama did not encourage or advise Clooney to say what he said, he also didn't object to it, we're told from people familiar with their exchange. The lack of pushback is an eye-popping revelation, given that the former president was one of the first big voices defending Biden following his abysmal debate performance. Obama's team has declined to comment. So from behind the scenes, Barack Obama's like, you want to, would you like to write a piece, George? That talks about how the president should step aside. Never liked that guy. He's a jerk. And George Clooney was like, sure, Mr. President.
For all those who pretend that Barack Obama is no longer invested in Democratic Party politics and is just off gallivanting around doing Netflix deals, false. But as always, Barack Obama is not a leader, and so he is leading from behind. I will say that the Biden team is pushing back against George Clooney in the stupidest possible way, like truly idiotic. Apparently, according to CNN White House correspondent Kayla Tausch, a Biden campaign aide is now pushing back on George Clooney's New York Times piece. Apparently, Tausch said a campaign official at the same fundraiser told her, quote,
George Clooney left three hours before the president asked to clarify what that was supposed to mean. Tausch then said, quote, The point of this is to suggest that Biden's stamina is better than Clooney's and Clooney didn't have eyes on the entire event. Yeah, that what now? So their defense is Joe Biden has more stamina than George Clooney.
Good luck on that particular argument. I'm having a tough time with that. George Clooney is 63 years old and a movie star. He is also the world's worst Batman, but still Batman. Joe Biden's going to take on Batman even like the world's worst Batman. OK, then here's what George Clooney actually writes in The New York Times. And it is vicious. Quote, I'm a lifelong Democrat. I make no apologies for that. I'm proud of what my party represents and what it stands for.
As part of my participation in the democratic process and in support of my chosen candidate, I have led some of the biggest fundraisers in my party's history. Barack Obama in 2012, Hillary Clinton in 2016, Joe Biden in 2020. Last month, I co-hosted the single largest fundraiser supporting any democratic candidate ever for President Biden's reelection. I say all of this only to express how much I believe in this process and how profound I think this moment is. I love Joe Biden as a senator.
As vice president and as president, I consider him a friend. I believe in him, believe in his character, believe in his morals. But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can. It's devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at a fundraiser was not the Joe Big F-ing Deal Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.
Was he tired? Yes. A cold? Maybe. But our party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn't see what we just saw. We're also terrified by the prospect of a second Trump term that we've opted to ignore every warning sign. The George Stephanopoulos interview only reinforced what we saw the week before. As Democrats, we collectively hold our breath or turn down the volume whenever we see the president, whom we respect, walk off Air Force One or walk back to a mic to answer an unscripted question.
Is it fair to point these things out, says George Clooney? It has to be. This is about age, nothing more, but also nothing that can be reversed. We're not going to win in November with this president. On top of that, we won't win the House. We're going to lose the Senate. This isn't only my opinion. This is the opinion of every senator and congressmember and governor who I spoke with in private. Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly. So this is George Clooney just ripping the cover off of the conspiracy of silence inside the Democratic Party.
He says, we love to talk about how the Republican Party has ceded all power and all the traits that made it so formidable with Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush. So a single person who seeks to hold on to the presidency. And yet most of our members of Congress are opting to wait and see if the dam breaks. But the dam has broken. We can put our heads in the sand and pray for a miracle in November or we can speak the truth.
This is all the scary stories that were being told about what would happen next simply are not true. In all likelihood, the money in the Biden-Harris coffers would go to help elect the presidential ticket and other Democrats. The new nominee would not be left off ballots in Ohio. We Democrats have a very exciting bench. Let's hear more from Wes Moore and Kamala Harris and Gretchen Whitmer and Gavin Newsom and Andy Beshear and J.B. Pritzker and others. By the way, I love this. I love that tacit in this piece is Clooney saying it should not be Kamala Harris.
That's what he's saying. That's why he's dumping all of these names into this piece, because Democrats, the real story here is that as we demonstrated in our documentary series, you should go check out right now over at Daily Wire Plus. Scamola, the Kamala Harris unmasking. She is awful. Everyone knows she's awful. Her poll numbers suck. And so Democrats are like, oh, my God, we can't even get rid of this corpse because standing behind him is the Joker. It's just terrible.
He said, let's agree that the candidates not attack one another. But in the short time we have focus on what will make this country sore. Then we could go into the Democratic Convention next month and figure it out. Would it be messy? Yes. Democracy is messy. But would it enliven our party and wake up voters long before the June debate had already checked out? It sure would. Joe Biden is a hero. He saved democracy in 2020. We need him to do it again in 2024, this time presumably by stepping down.
George Clooney trying to turn Joe Biden into a hero. The problem is Joe Biden is asleep somewhere, but you can't sleep as well as Joe Biden because, you know, you're not senile. And if you have trouble sleeping, let me recommend Helix mattresses. Helix harnesses years of mattress expertise to offer a truly elevated sleep experience.

David Axelrod, again, part of Team Obama. So one of the untold stories here is how much Team Obama hates Team Biden, despises Team Biden. They see them as hangers-on. They see them as people who rode Obama's coattails to power, which is true. And...
They, of course, helped an incredibly charismatic, if dishonest president become president and stay president. And they're looking at Joe Biden, who is totally uncharismatic, and they're freaking out. So here's David Axelrod, part of Team Obama, being like, man, Clooney's right. There's nothing we can do about it.
Clooney, who just hosted a fundraiser, a major fundraiser for the president a few weeks ago in California, said you can't win the battle against time. None of us can. It's devastating to say. But Joe Biden, I was the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago. The fundraiser was not the Joe Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate. That is devastating. It was not surprising to any of us who were at the fundraiser. I was there. It was
Clooney was exactly right. And every single person I talked to at the fundraiser thought the same thing, except for the people working for Joe Biden, or at least they didn't say that. Again, that's Team Obama. That's Jon Favreau from Pod Save America. He's one of the Obama boys. Michael Douglas also coming out of the woodwork to say, you know, probably he needs to go.
I'm deeply, deeply concerned. I mean, especially it's difficult because the Democrats have a big bench. I mean, they've got a lot of heavy hitters. A lot of talent. A lot of talent. People have to catch up. They only have a few months. And I do worry with the debate, the difficulty with the debate.
I mean, it was relatively simple. I mean, you just first of all, they should just told told the president stand up, put a little makeup on him, you know, for the debate, which should help him. And then where to look and call the other guy a convicted felon, call the other guy and just don't deal with all your facts. Just deal with his lies. By the way, Michael Douglas is 79 years old and looks significantly better than Joe Biden.
Stephen Colbert, who does not have the courage of his convictions, he's basically also doing the Obama thing. He's implying that Biden should go, but he's not going to call for him to go. But he's implying he should go, but he's not going to call for it because he has no courage. Could I recommend a new book? Oh, the places for Joe. Is he mentally fit? Can he serve a whole term? Can he beat RFK with his brain full of worm?
Just ask him. Just ask him. The man loves to talk as long as you ask him before 8 o'clock. Whatever. While congressional Democrats are conflicted, we got a clear message today from our nation's most powerful Democratic leader, George Clooney. LAUGHTER
George wrote a New York Times op-ed titled, I love Joe Biden, but we need a new nominee. Adding, we also need a money guy, a safe cracker, an acrobat and Brad Pitt. It's the plot of Oceans 24. Amal's busy with human rights stuff and I got bored. I watched that.
Okay, so Colbert is not calling for him to step out, but everyone knows that he's got to go. Even members of the media who are very much trying not to undercut Joe Biden at this point, they're getting caught on camera saying things they shouldn't be saying. So George Stephanopoulos was outside walking the streets over in New York and somebody asked him, so George, do you think that the president can do another four years? And Stephanopoulos is like, nope.
Hey, how you doing? What do you think? Do you think Biden should step down? You talk to him more than anybody else have lately. And you can be honest. You don't think he can serve four more years? All right. That's an answer. What? Oh, he's saying it. By the way, he then had to walk that back. Yeah, the walk back ain't going to help. Chuck Todd and another news anchor. He says two years ago, cabinet members were saying that Biden could not fulfill another term. This is from his Chuck Todd cast on NBC News.
Let's just say I've had somebody who wanted to run for president and still wants to run for president say to me, I was on that stage when Joe Biden essentially pledged to be a one term president. Never said it, but it certainly was OK if that's what voters heard. And it was always the that was the intent that voters need to hear that. And this person goes and I was on stage. There were three or four of us on stage there. I heard that's what I heard. I heard a one term and that he was going to pass the torch.
And any any and he didn't pass the torch. Everything that I've learned, it has made me want to rethink a lot of the Biden biography. I think the entire narrative on Joe Biden is going to change and that he was everything has been about his ambition and his ambition comes first. No bleep. Chuck, welcome to the party, pal. Again, all of this is bubbling inside the media. But for Biden's part, he keeps saying he's not going anywhere.
Well, yeah, I mean, we all knew that he was senile two years ago and then all of you covered it up. I'm old enough to remember when we were saying that. I'm also old enough to remember when COVID basically shut down health care where hospitals were overflowing, urgent care centers had eight hour wait times. Well, CDC is now issuing a bird flu health alert.
Is this going to be the next round of this? I don't know about you. I'm not about to let the government control my life. I took control of both mine and my family's health and ordered a medical emergency kit from the doctors at the wellness company. It's not a first aid kit. It's a kit filled with essential prescriptions that can treat over 39 medical issues. The kit includes strong antibiotics for infections of all types, including pneumonia, strep throat, ear infections, and more. It's like having an urgent care in your home. No waiting to see a doctor, no waiting at a pharmacy. It's all there is.
It's best to be ready in case of emergency. Urgent Care Kit can help you do it. UrgentCareKit.com slash Ben. Enter promo code Ben for 15% off.
So John Kirby, national security spokesperson and actual White House press secretary, because Karine Jean-Pierre, of course, is awful at her job. He keeps saying over and over. I don't know how many times I have to say this. He's running. He's running. I'm just telling you he's running. Here we go.
He did make his decision and he made it crystal clear to everybody that he's running for re-election. The president has made it clear to the entire team, certainly at the National Security Council, what his intentions are and what his goals are. And we exist to support him and to give him the advice and counsel and the resources he needs to get that job done. And that's what his focus is on.
Mm hmm. Sure. He's focused on getting the job done. So what is Biden doing to actually shore this thing up? So as we mentioned at the top of the show, there's going to be a press conference from the president of the United States. God help him. May he be healthy and well enough to actually do it this afternoon. Who knows? Lots of stuff could happen to you now in 530 p.m. Eastern time. And apparently he's going to have what they are now calling a big boy press conference. They are so incompetent at their branding. They tried Bidenomics and everyone hates Bidenomics. And they're like, he's going to have a big boy press conference.
And like Huggies, he's a big kid now. Here we go. MSNBC excitedly reporting.
You know when you're driving somewhere and you see a gas station or a liquor store right before a bridge and it says last chance for gas or last chance for liquor? I feel like this press conference Thursday, Alex, is like the last chance Democrats have, right? Like they're going over the bridge and this is it. If you want to pull over and fill up your tank or buy a bottle of bourbon before you go to a dry county or a dry state, boy, this is the moment. This press conference on Thursday, I think, is the moment.
If he hits the ball out of the park, obviously the pressure will ebb. But if it doesn't go well, I think you will see one final round of Democrats trying to get him out of the race. And you'll see, I think, some of these senators, especially, who have been quiet or been talking on background, go public and call for him to step out. I think that's a high-stakes moment on Thursday.
That's Jonathan Martin from MSNBC talking about what happens this afternoon. But Biden has already scheduled more interviews. So apparently NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt is going to sit down with Joe Biden. They have an exclusive one-on-one interview. It's supposed to come out next Monday, 9 p.m. Eastern. That's when you watch the interview in its entirety.
You know, good luck. The original interview is going to be aired presumably this weekend and it'll be all chopped up in some way. And then you'll get the full interview on Monday. Meanwhile, Team Biden is scheduled today to meet with Senate Democratic leadership at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee during lunch. But it won't be Biden. It'll just be his advisers like Mike Donilon and Steve Ruschetti. But that's not the question. The question is whether Joe Biden is, in fact, capable, whether he can handle himself.
So the Democrats behind the scenes are super uneasy. Obviously, what Clooney says is correct. It's being reported by everyone from Politico to Punchbowl News. Everyone recognizes the behind the scenes Democrats think he is going to lose.
Axios Today says Schumer is now open to dumping Biden in 2024. In public, says Axios, Chuck Schumer, the Senate majority leader, has been insistent that he is for Joe. In private, he's singing a different tune. Over the last 12 days, Schumer has been listening to donor ideas and suggestions about the best way forward for the party, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The majority leader is one of several Democrats, including former President Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has the political and personal standing to convince Biden to step aside. Even so, Biden can still dig in and delegates are pledged to him. Schumer said in a statement, quote, As I have made clear repeatedly, publicly and privately, I support President Biden and remain committed to ensuring Donald Trump is defeated in November. But but apparently Schumer's flip phone has been burning up for weeks and Schumer has been listening.
Following Tuesday's caucus lunch, Schumer invited senior Biden campaign officials to brief members and directly address any concerns they might have. So Schumer is now open to the possibility of pushing Joe Biden off the cliff. Pelosi has been pretty clearly trying to mobilize against Biden. She's been signaling to Biden. In fact, she says that she is really funny. She did an interview where she keeps saying that Joe Biden has a decision to make on running.
He keeps saying his decision, which is that he is going to run. But she did an interview on MSNBC where they're like, well, he says he's going to run. She's like, well, I hope that he makes the right decision. And they're like, well, but he's made his decision. She's like, well, no, I'll do whatever he says. It's his decision. But he made his decision, ma'am. I'm sorry, you're wish casting that Joe Biden is going to reverse himself because you keep heavily implying he should drop out is not going to work. Here she was on MSNBC this morning, Joe, trying to leave the door open to Joe Biden leaving.
Does he have your support to be the head of the Democrats again? As long as the president had the president, it's up to the president to decide if he is going to run. We're all encouraging him to to make that decision because time is running short. The I think overwhelming support of the of the caucus. It's not for me to say I'm not the head of the caucus anymore. But
He's beloved. He is respected. And people want him to make that decision. He has said he has made the decision. He has said firmly this week he is going to run. Do you want him to run? I want him to do whatever he decides to do. And that's that's the way it is. Whatever he decides, we go with. Oh, boy.
So what was that meant to be? According to Politico, those comments were meant to serve as a subtle green light. One person close with Pelosi said meant to encourage members to speak up about their desire to see change atop the ticket and to warn Biden to reconsider staying in the race. So what you have right now is sort of a classic prisoner's dilemma for Democratic leadership. They've got a real problem. They have a collective action problem. They are not sure whether or not together they can get everybody to push Biden off the ticket.
And so everyone has an interest in staying silent. They're suddenly encouraging everybody else to go out and be the person who gets shot. But they don't want to be the first person over the edge of the World War I trench. They don't want to charge directly into Biden's line of sight here. And so what you have here is all of them whispering behind the scenes that they want Biden to go. And nobody willing to actually say it except for George Clooney, who, of course, is not answerable to anybody because he's busy directing another bad movie or something. Pelosi has apparently...
not try to hide her disdain for the situation in which the party now finds itself. She suggested to people, according to Politico, that Biden won't win this November and should step aside. In fact, she's advised some Democrats in swing districts to do whatever they have to do to secure their own reelect, even if it means asking Biden to relinquish his place atop the ticket. Pelosi is advising those members to wait until the end of the NATO summit. Some members have already started drafting statements of what they want to say, ready to drop once the foreign leaders leave town.
For members who are not in swing districts, Pelosi is encouraging them to take their pleas for Biden to step aside directly to the White House or the campaign in order to minimize public fighting. So again, Pelosi behind the scenes is pushing very hard for his ouster. You're starting to see the wall break a little bit. Senator Peter Welch is the first Democratic senator to openly call for the president to step aside. He said Biden should withdraw, quote, for the good of the country. This is in the Washington Post. He said his constituents are, quote, worried that Biden can't win this time and they're terrified of another Trump presidency.
Meanwhile, Hakeem Jeffries, who is the House minority leader, he has told lawmakers, according to Politico, in private meetings, he will relay concerns regarding the president's electability to Biden, according to two people familiar with the situation, as more Democrats call for him to step aside.
It's still not clear when Jeffries will speak with the president. Asked Wednesday about his plans to talk with Biden, Jeffries sidestepped and said, quote, the comprehensive conversations with the House Democratic Caucus will be, quote, the focus of our activity today, tomorrow. We'll see where we go from there. The fact that this is an open question in July is a disaster area for Democrats. And you can see why precisely all of this panic is breaking out. Brand new polling from New York, from New York,
suggesting that New York is now a battleground state. OK, if New York is a battleground state, this election is over. Joe Biden in 2020 won New York by a lot of points. The percentage that he won New York by in 2020 was 23 percent. He won 61 percent of the vote in New York state in 2020. If Donald Trump is even within spitting distance of Joe Biden in New York, this election is over and it's a landslide.
According to Politico, Biden aides have not focused on New York, but the warning signs are impossible to ignore and have been building over the past year. Two private polls conducted in a swing New York House district and reviewed by Politico found former President Trump leading Biden there by one point, a virtual tie. Public polls over the last four months found Biden's lead had winnowed to just eight points across New York. He won by 23 last time, 23. And that lead is now down to single digits like eight. If that's the shift in the country,
then Trump doesn't just win Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. He wins Virginia. He wins New Hampshire. He wins a wide variety of states that are within that margin of error. And a Siena College poll in June found Biden with only an eight-point lead over Donald Trump in New York. Full-scale disaster area.
So again, this is why Democrats are freaking out. We'll get to more of their freak out in just one moment. First, folks, yesterday, as I told you at the top of the show, I took our fight straight to Washington to expose the truth about the global cartel trying to control what you see and hear in the media, revealing how corporations and elite organizations are using their advertising dollars to silence conservative voices like ours.

Again, right now, looking at the polling data, Nate Silver, who updates his presidential forecast pretty much every day, he says that Donald Trump currently has a 70% chance to beat Joe Biden.
And the polls usually under sample Trump voters, historically speaking. Right now in Pennsylvania, he is leading on average in the 538 polling average by 3.4 points. According to RealClearPolitics, by 3.
The economy says that Donald Trump has a 74% chance of winning Pennsylvania. And these numbers are disastrous for Joe Biden, which is why you're seeing all of these Democrats kind of, they're approaching it. They're approaching it super softly. They're going to try and creep around Joe Biden. They don't want to be the first person to plunge the knife in Julius Caesar, but they'll be the second person to plunge the knife into Julius Caesar. Here's Representative Steve Cohen from Tennessee. The language they're going with for now is if he wants it, he'll be the nominee. Well, he does want it, but you're not declaring him the nominee.
What you're doing is you just keep saying over and over and over that maybe, maybe he'll reconsider. I hope he'll reconsider. Please reconsider, please. Nancy Pelosi is one of the best politicians and smartest people I've ever been blessed to deal with and interact with. And she's saying what we should do. We should. The reality are Joe Biden will determine whether he's the nominee or not. If he wants to be the nominee, he will be the nominee. If he doesn't, we'll have some other avenue. And she's saying, let Joe Biden decide.
Let Joe Biden decide is not a move, guys. Let Joe Biden decide. Again, I love it. I love it. It's like.
My wife asked me what movie I want to see tonight. And I'm like an action movie. And she's like, well, I hope that you make the right decision. I'm like, like, so like Die Hard. And she's like, well, I hope you make the right decision. Like, no, no, Die Hard's a great movie. She's like, the right decision I hope you make. Like, oh, you want to watch Sleepless in Seattle? Like that's what they're trying to do right now. And it's not going to work. Absent something big happening. Democratic campaign.
Senator Richard Blumenthal from Connecticut. He's saying pretty openly he's afraid that Biden's going to lose. I am deeply concerned about Joe Biden winning this November. Oh, well, that's sad. Tim Kaine, you'll remember him from being the anonymous former vice presidential candidate to failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. He says, don't worry, Joe Biden will do the patriotic thing again. This is my wife just asking me whether I really, really want to make the right decision and watch Die Hard again.
I have complete confidence that Joe Biden will do the patriotic thing for the country. And he's going to make that decision. He's never disappointed me. He's always put patriotism and and the country ahead of himself. And I'm going to respect the decision. I love it so much. It's so good. None of them have the courage to be like, yeah, Joe needs to go. They don't have the courage to say it because they're afraid then they get shot by their own troops.
Joe Biden is sending his troops like Stalin to the front lines without any weaponry. And if they turn back, then they get shot. That's what's happening with the Democratic Party right now. Figuratively speaking, obviously, the Michigan governor, Gretchen Whitmer, she, too, is echoing this this notion. Only Joe Biden will decide. I mean, only Joe. OK, OK.
If he does decide to step aside, a big if, the caveat there, is it a job you'd be interested in? Listen, I'm not going down that road with you, Willie. I appreciate the question, but the field is set.
Joe Biden is the only person who is determining whether or not he sees this race. He's made his decision. He's communicated that decision and it is time to get going. We've got a high stakes election and all this continued talk and fretting and hand wringing that people are doing only sets us up for a disadvantage going into this important election against Donald Trump. OK, so they're just going to keep trying to wish him out of office. Good luck with that.
Meanwhile, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, Richie Torres, he says, you know, blindness is not bliss. This is what he's been tweeting out.
He says, you keep trying to pretend that if you go blind on this, it'll work. He says, in determining how to proceed as a party, there must be a serious reckoning with the down ballot effect of whomever we nominate. What matters is not how we feel, but what the numbers tell us. An unsentimental analysis of the cold, hard numbers, which have no personal feelings or political loyalties, should inform what we decide and whom we nominate. If we're going to choose a particular path, we should be clear eyed about its consequences. Blindness is not bliss and a terrifying threat of a Trump presidency is coming. I mean, that's Richie Torres.
Again, they're all sort of implying it, but none of them are willing to say it. Over at The View, which is a repository of all human stupidity, Joy Behar, she sees what's coming down the tracks. What she sees coming down the tracks is Democrats want Biden gone and the backup is Kamala Harris. And I refer you to our three-part documentary series, Scamala, for more information on our wildly unpopular vice president. Joy Behar is trying to prep the ground. She's trying to soften the ground with the heavy artillery here. We're
What really ticks me off about him, though, is this laughing Kamala remark. It's such a sexist remark because a guy I was with over the weekend, a friend of mine, they said Kamala's laugh annoys me. Remember they said that about Hillary's laugh, that she was cackling. And men, you know, they don't like a funny woman. We're afraid if you laugh or you make a joke that maybe you'll do that when they're in bed with you. It's like this fear, this fear of women's laughing and comedy.
What now? That's so if you don't like Kamala Harris is weird cackling. It's because you fear her in the boudoir. That's a, that's a theory there. Joy. Uh, I feel like given her personal history, uh,
I mean, Willie Brown and all, that's probably not what people are thinking about Kamala Harris when they are thinking about that type of activity. But sure, go with that. The reason that she's unpopular is because of sexism and men being afraid of funny women in the sack. Nail that one, Joy. As always, as always.
Genius level stuff right there. Meanwhile, President Trump is doing the smart thing and he's just staying outside the spotlight. He's been doing rallies, but nobody covers them because, you know, of the crisis on the Democratic side of the aisle. He also did the smart thing. He's asked about Project 2025, which, again, is the buzzword the Democrats keep using over and over and over. As I said yesterday,
I'm starting to fear Project 2025 so much. It's like the Democrats are going to say it three times in the mirror and then Donald Trump is going to appear and want to play golf or something. It's like Beetlejuice. But in any case, Donald Trump points out the reality, which is that it's not just about Joe Biden inside the Democratic Party. Everyone that they are running is a nut. Here is the former president of the United States correctly noting this fact. I don't care if it's him or somebody else. It's also policy. It's
More about policy than anything else. And these radical Democrats are all radical. Everyone that they're talking about is a radical left lunatic. And whether it's Biden or whether it's somebody else, I think it's the same. He is correct about this. Again, Donald Trump is now the candidate of stability and normality and moderation. Slow clap for the Democrats, guys. You did this to yourself. Hilarious clip from The Daily Show last night. They had a panel of black voters and they asked them,
who they want, Trump or Biden. And certainly they were expecting that everyone in the room was going to be like, we love Joe Biden. That's not how it went. Who will you be voting for in 2024, Daryl?
Do I have to say his name? I don't want to, but more than likely it's going to be Trump. Yeah. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Who are you going to be voting for? Biden. And then, Victor? I'm with her. Oh, Biden, okay. Trump. Trump. Biden. Biden. Trump. Okay, we're an even split. Oh. Which, yeah, I didn't see that coming.
Yes. Yes. Okay. And some people are going to say it's about Trump. And it is. I mean, in the sense that Trump obviously is a larger than life figure. He has pop culture relevance. And all the attempts to turn Donald Trump into Hitler have completely failed. But a huge percentage of this...
is about the fact that Barack Obama levels of support among black voters in the Democratic Party are non-transferable. Certainly, the enthusiasm that black voters felt for Barack Obama is non-transferable to the dead old white man that Democrats are trying to run as he goes around telling Morehouse College graduates they're never going to succeed in life because of the color of their skin. It turns out that's not a particularly popular message. Again, Donald Trump, again, it's scary. He's learning. He's learning. He is.
So a lot of debate over his VP reveal. According to the New York Times, Trump's VP reveal may be this week or not. It's not. He ain't going to do it this week. And the reason he ain't going to do it this week is never interrupt your opponents when they are making gigantic mistakes. And right now, the Democratic Party is tearing itself absolutely apart. If I were Trump, I'd just wait until the convention. The convention is the middle of next week.
It would make some like you're going to there going to be eyes on the convention anyway. That's a great time to announce who exactly you're going to select. My feeling is that Trump is trying to go non-confrontational. That's been every move that he has made. And he took most of the abortion stuff out of the Republican National Convention platform. He took pretty much everything about same sex marriage out of that platform. He has presented the least controversial Republican platform of my lifetime bar none just by polling data.
So picking a vice president who is likely to generate controversy, I think, would be a mistake for him, considering, again, he's running toward the middle. So the question is, which candidate for VP is likely to bolster the image of him as a moderate candidate of stability, which that is where we are in the election cycle right now. So picking the least controversial VP candidate would probably be the best move.
And we'll see what he does with that. Meanwhile, Democrats continue to double down on the radicalism. I mean, it really is insane. So yesterday, the House Republicans and like five Democrats passed a bill titled the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act. All that bill did was seek to expand proof of citizenship requirements to vote in federal elections and impose voter roll purge requirements on states. And it's pretty obvious stuff. Why exactly?
Should there not be an obligation to demonstrate you are a citizen of the United States by photo ID, for example, before you get a an application for voter registration? Why should the voter rolls have illegal immigrants on them? Makes no sense. But every Democrat voted against it. President Biden has vowed to veto it.
Please explain to me the logic of that. Why not just sign that if you're Biden and you want to ensure that people don't feel like you're trying to stack the deck electorally? Why wouldn't you sign that? Like what? What is the optic victory here? Opponents of the bill, according to the Hill, say its core idea establishing noncitizen voting as illegal is redundant and argues provisions will more likely lead to U.S. citizens being denied their right to vote than to preventing votes by foreign nationals. But again, this is like the dumbest thing in the world, because polling data shows that the vast majority of Americans believe in voter I.D.,
Now, whenever people say, well, black people can't get I.D. Yes, they absolutely can. And they do. It turns out that black people are perfectly capable of getting voter I.D. So are Hispanic people. So is everyone. You have an I.D., don't you? Again, it is quite amazing that Democrats almost universally voted against this thing. So Chip Roy, excellent member of Congress in Texas.
In an op-ed in May, he wrote, And he pointed out Joe Biden saying back in May that Hispanic immigrants were, quote unquote, voters. He was talking there about illegal immigrants, too.
Again, somebody please explain to me the logic that Democrats are presenting here, that it is a danger to the voting public if you have to show a vote, some sort of identification demonstrating you're a citizen of the United States. It's like basic election security kind of stuff. And Democrats are kicking back against it anyway. That's the reason Donald Trump.
is doing really well. If he puts some duct tape over his mouth and just goes down to the basement for the next four months, that dude's going to be president again. Meanwhile, in just another example of how the left has basically turned everything into a partisan political issue, Letitia Wright is the star of Black Panther and executive producer on the faith-based movie Sound of Hope, the story of Possum Trot has now issued an Instagram statement ripping into us here at The Daily Wire for helping to distribute the film, which is an amazing thing. Like she's a producer on the film.
The film is about the evils of the current foster care system. It's about the amazing heroism of this town possum trot that adopted 77 foster kids. We are in favor of that sort of activity in the real world. We love the movie. We've helped distribute the movie. She's mad that we're even associated with the movie, apparently.
She posted on Instagram, quote, producing this film alongside Peacetree Productions to tell the incredible story of Bishop W.C. Martin, First Lady Donna Martin, and all the incredible families of Possum Trot has been nothing less than inspiring. We've created a beautiful film that gives a voice to vulnerable children with the hope that families across the country and world, no matter their faith, race, or diversity, would join together to help kids to be moved to make a difference in any way they can, which is why it's a shame to see small pockets of discourse online take a divisive,
political turn. This story isn't about politics, it's about children. It's about sacrificial love for children who have experienced unthinkable horrors and how communities at a grassroots level, like the community of Possum Trot, can help provide these safe, loving homes they so desperately need. Any conversation that detracts from that is unnecessary and harmful. The potential for this film to positively change lives is far too important. To be clear, after we completed production of this film, Angel Studios were brought on board to handle its distribution, and they later partnered with The Daily Wire. That was not my decision.
And I was not given an update or made aware of this decision. I'm in no way aligned or affiliated with the Daily Wire. I'm thankful for all who want to positively champion this film and campaign to serve children. However, I do not condone using this beautiful film for divisive political purposes. That is why that is not why I joined the project. So I just don't understand who she thinks is making this partisan. We certainly have not. We have not talked about this as a Democrat Republican issue in any way. This is a human rights issue for children.
What is the blowback that she has received? Again, this is the demonstration full scale of the left's radical intolerance in the cultural arena. Even the minutest association with anybody who's perceived to be conservative over things that are utterly uncontroversial and just good for humanity, like fixing the foster care system and getting kids adopted by loving families. The left is even willing to turn that into a partisan political fight in order to shred any level of association between left and right over issues we all should agree upon.
So DailyWare co-CEO Jeremy Boring put out a statement, quote, on its opening day, July 4th, Sound of Hope was one of the highest grossing films nationwide, second only to Disney's biggest release of the year. This movie is tracking to be huge and has the potential to launch a movement to end America's foster crisis.
The Daily Wire is truly honored to partner with Angel Studios on such an important project. But such is the intolerance of the modern left that instead of celebrating this accomplishment in all it might mean, one of the film's producers, Letitia Wright of Black Panther fame, used the occasion to condemn The Daily Wire's involvement in sharing this message across the country. Letitia and I probably don't share the same politics, but I believe we share Christian faith. And more importantly, the same goal of shining a light on something we can all agree on, a community banding together to help kids in need. We hope people don't allow this distraction to steal from the message, from the film, and the impact it can have.
Everyone should see this movie and join the fight for kids. It's too important not to.
And that's the sad part, is when Hollywood is so wildly intolerant that even when we agree on something, left and the right, they would proceed to shred that level of agreement just to make a political point. You wonder why the country is falling apart culturally. That's why the country is falling. If we can't agree on the foster system needs help and loving families should adopt kids, what the hell can we agree on? And if the idea is that we can't even hold hands over that one, what can we hold hands over?
You want to talk about all of this phony talk about a civil war inside the United States and the country falling apart, but it's this kind of stuff that leads to that. Making these issues into partisan issues is a tragedy for the country. It's an excellent film with an important message, and I don't care who distributes the film. It is worth seeing.
