Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Wednesday morning did not provide a direct answer when she was asked if she wanted President Joe Biden to continue his campaign for president.
The California Democrat was pressed on the issue on MSNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Morning Joe&#8221; and said she and other Democrats would support whatever Biden chooses to do.
&#8220;It&#8217;s up to the president to decide if he is going to run,&#8221; Pelosi said.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
.<a href="https://twitter.com/SpeakerPelosi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SpeakerPelosi</a> asked about Biden&#39;s candidacy:

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;We&#8217;re all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short,&#8221; she added.
Pelosi said Biden has the &#8220;overwhelming support of the caucus,&#8221; although she noted that &#8220;it&#8217;s not for me to say&#8221; since she no longer leads House Democrats.
&#8220;But he&#8217;s beloved, he is respected, and people want him to make that decision,&#8221; she said.
MSNBC&#8217;s Willie Geist countered, &#8220;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?&#8221;
&#8220;I want him to do whatever he decides to do,&#8221; Pelosi responded. &#8220;And that&#8217;s the way it is. Whatever he decides, we go with.&#8221;
Pelosi then shifted gears, saying Biden is &#8220;orchestrating&#8221; this week&#8217;s NATO conference &#8220;magnificently.&#8221;
The former speaker said she told her fellow Democrats to refrain from expressing their opinions about Biden&#8217;s candidacy until after this week.
&#8220;I&#8217;ve said, everyone, let&#8217;s just hold off, whatever you&#8217;re thinking either tell somebody privately, but you don&#8217;t have to put that out on the table until we see how we go this week,&#8221; Pelosi said.
Biden&#8217;s campaign is facing a crisis among Democrats since his dismal debate performance last month against former President Donald Trump.
Democrats are currently divided on Biden, and many have publicly expressed concerns that the president may not be up to the task of serving another four years or even campaigning for the next four months.
Pelosi&#8217;s unenthusiastic remarks on Biden&#8217;s candidacy Wednesday come as other top Democrats, including Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), have <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/07/09/congress/schumer-im-with-joe-00167121" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declared</a> their solid support for the president.
Biden has made it clear he has no intention of dropping out.
“I’m firmly committed to staying in this race,” Biden wrote in a letter to Congress on Monday.
One Senate Democrat is warning that Biden is likely to lose in November.
&#8220;Donald Trump is on track, I think, to win this election — and maybe win it by a landslide — and take with him the Senate and the House,&#8221; Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) <a href="https://x.com/TVNewsNow/status/1810847716559266171" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on CNN.

The Biden campaign released an ad last week that personally attacks Supreme Court justices for being beholden to former President Donald Trump.
The <a href="https://youtu.be/_G3ua5TCHnA?si=1k6AHoU4GhR_IKdw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ad takes</a> particular aim at the Supreme Court&#8217;s landmark <a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-supreme-court-due-rule-trumps-immunity-bid-blockbuster-case-2024-07-01/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ruling</a> earlier this month that a U.S. president cannot be prosecuted for acts that were within his constitutional powers as president.
&#8220;Nearly 250 years ago, America was founded in defiance of a king under the belief that no one is above the law, not even the president — until now,&#8221; the Biden ad&#8217;s narrator says.
The spot refers to the high court as the &#8220;Trump Supreme Court&#8221; and implies that the justices ignored the law and ruled as Trump wanted them to.
<iframe loading="lazy" title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_G3ua5TCHnA?si=dP5t16E06JnZTUDU" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&#8220;The same Trump Supreme Court that overturned Roe v. Wade ruled that the president can ignore the law even to commit a crime because Donald Trump asked them to,&#8221; the ad&#8217;s narrator says. &#8220;He&#8217;s already led an insurrection and threatened to be a dictator on day one. Donald Trump can never hold this office again.&#8221;
President Joe Biden, 81, has frequently attacked the Supreme Court with its 6-3 conservative majority, especially as the campaign season has heated up.
&#8220;I dissent,&#8221; Biden <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/biden-make-remarks-monday-evening-immunity-ruling-by-supreme-court-2024-07-01/">said</a> Monday evening in response, referring to the court&#8217;s decision on presidential immunity.
Biden has also been particularly focused on the Supreme Court&#8217;s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, claiming the Dobbs decision overturned a constitutional right for the first time in the history of the court.
Biden&#8217;s attacks on the court are unprecedented, experts say.
Legal scholar Jonathan Turley <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/bidens-scotus-critiques-considered-unprecedented-experts-say-contrasting-clintons-2000-deference" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> the idea that Biden is &#8220;really the symbol of constitutional fealty is really alarming.&#8221;
Attorney Mark Paoletta, a personal friend of Justice Clarence Thomas who played a significant role in his confirmation, called the attacks on the court &#8220;dangerous.&#8221;
&#8220;Obama criticized a single case in his State of the Union, which is bad enough, but Biden does a nationwide primetime address to trash the court on immunity… though he did not have the courage or perhaps the mental acuity to take any questions,&#8221; Paoletta <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/bidens-scotus-critiques-considered-unprecedented-experts-say-contrasting-clintons-2000-deference" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>.
In 2010, then-President Barack Obama lashed out at the court&#8217;s decision in the Citizens United case, which allowed corporations and other groups to spend independently on political campaigns.
The court &#8220;reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests — including foreign corporations — to spend without limit in our elections,&#8221; Obama said during his State of the Union speech that year.
Republicans at the time criticized Obama&#8217;s willingness to attack the court.

President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden&#8217;s</a> re-election campaign claimed on Wednesday that all of the country&#8217;s Democrat governors support Biden to be the party&#8217;s nominee this fall as forces in the party are seeking to have him replaced following his disastrous debate performance last week against former President Donald Trump.
&#8220;Tonight President Biden and Vice President Harris met with Democratic governors from across the country at the White House to discuss their continued partnership in this reelection campaign,&#8221; the Biden campaign claimed in a statement following the meeting. &#8220;The president reiterated his determination to defeat the existential threat of Donald Trump at the ballot box in November and sought the advice and expertise of Democratic governors.&#8221;
The campaign said that the meeting also focused on the importance of making sure that Democrats were elected &#8220;up and down the ballot to deliver more Democratic governors and more Democratic majorities in Congress and statehouses across the country.&#8221;
&#8220;All participants reiterated their shared commitment to do everything possible to make sure President Biden and Vice President Harris beat Donald Trump in November,&#8221; the campaign claimed.
The White House hosted the meeting for the governors, which was attended in person by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the chair of the Democrat Governors Association, along with California Governor Gavin Newsom, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, New York Governor Kathy Hochul, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, and Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear. All the other Democrat governors attended the event virtually.

Many, but not all, of the governors released <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-governors-unite-behind-biden-as-80-of-america-says-hes-too-old" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statements</a> of support for Biden following the meeting.
During a meeting with the campaign earlier in the day, Biden denied that he was dropping out as he sought to ease staffer&#8217;s minds amid reports that he had told an ally that he was considering it.
“Let me say this as clearly as I possibly can, as simply and straightforward as I can: I am running,” Biden said. “No one is pushing me out,” he continued. “I’m not leaving. I’m in this race to the end and we’re going to win.”

In the wake of President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden&#8217;s</a> disastrous debate performance Thursday night, Democrats are panicking.
Just weeks ago, though, they were assuring us the president was just fine, asking us in the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHxGUe1cjzM" target="_blank" rel="noopener">spirit</a> of the Marx Brothers, &#8220;Well, who are you gonna believe? Me or your own eyes?&#8221;
Here are some of the Biden allies who defended the president&#8217;s mental capacity against &#8220;right-wing propaganda&#8221; as recently as this month.
1. Nancy Pelosi
Just this month, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) slammed The Wall Street Journal for reporting on Democrats who said that behind closed doors, Biden is showing signs of mental slipping.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Pelosi posted on social media that many Democrats talked to the Journal and shared their &#8220;first-hand experiences&#8221; with Biden where they see &#8220;his wisdom, experience, strength and strategic thinking.&#8221;
&#8220;Instead, the Journal ignored testimony by Democrats, focused on attacks by Republicans and printed a hit piece,&#8221; Pelosi said.
2. Chuck Schumer
In February, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) defended Biden against a special counsel&#8217;s report saying the president has a “poor memory.”
“I talk to President Biden regularly. Usually several times in a week. His mental acuity is great, it’s fine, it’s as good as it’s been over the years,” Schumer <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/4465074-schumer-biden-mental-acuity-is-great/#:~:text=“I%20talk%20to%20President%20Biden,in%20response%20to%20a%20question." target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> reporters.
“I’ve been speaking to him for 30 years since we worked on the Brady Bill, the assault weapons ban when I was a young congressman,” Schumer said. “He’s fine. All this right-wing propaganda that his mental acuity has declined is wrong.”
3. Biden Campaign Co-Chair Mitch Landrieu
In February, Mitch Landrieu, co-chairman of Biden&#8217;s reelection campaign, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4461381-biden-campaign-says-idea-president-is-unfit-for-office-is-bucket-of-bs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> that suggestions the president is mentally unfit for office are a &#8220;bucket of BS.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m telling you this guy&#8217;s tough, he&#8217;s smart, he&#8217;s on his game,&#8221; Landrieu said on MSNBC. &#8220;When you&#8217;re going to brief the president, you&#8217;d better have your big boy pants on. And this kind of sense that he&#8217;s not ready for this job is just a bucket of BS that&#8217;s so deep your boots will get stuck in it.&#8221;

4. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz
In January, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) accused those criticizing Biden&#8217;s mental capacity of &#8220;ageism.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;ve spent a lot of time with the president, and he&#8217;s great,&#8221; Walz said on NBC. &#8220;We&#8217;re talking, we&#8217;re chatting and all this, and I think, you know, we all get a little older, that&#8217;s what happens. But you also gain that insight, I think, when it comes to these issues, working across the aisle to get things done. You see the president just doing this with dignity, doing it with class, getting up every day, doing the work. So I think he&#8217;s just doing what he does.&#8221;
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1712932862202000&amp;usg=AOvVaw0plT8RRdMy9XUpIhocnjQS">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a>
&#8220;Look, my mom&#8217;s 88, still living on the farm, drives herself,&#8221; Walz added. &#8220;Folks are able to do this. So I think there&#8217;s a little bit of ageism that goes to this. If it&#8217;s not that, it would be something else. They attack all of us on something. This is part of it.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
5. Senator Alex Padilla
Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) said in February that Democrats&#8217; task until November is to &#8220;remind&#8221; the American public that not only is Biden &#8220;fit to do the job, he&#8217;s doing a hell of a damn job.&#8221;
&#8220;If he was weak, he wouldn&#8217;t have been able to rally our allies to support Ukraine against Putin&#8217;s aggression,&#8221; Padilla said on MSNBC. &#8220;He wouldn&#8217;t have driven the economy to such great success.&#8221;

6. Montana Senator Jon Tester
Again in February, Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) said Biden has been &#8220;absolutely, 100% with it&#8221; when Tester has been around him.
&#8220;His recall, his cognitive ability, whatever you want to call it — I&#8217;m not a doctor, I&#8217;m a dirt farmer — he&#8217;s fine, and he&#8217;s doing a good job,&#8221; Tester told NBC. &#8220;I think folks are making a bigger deal out of it than it is.&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
7. Congressman Dan Goldman
In February, Representative Dan Goldman (D-NY) went as far as to say that Biden is &#8220;sharper&#8221; than anyone he has spoken to about the Hamas attack on Israel.
&#8220;I was in Israel on October 7 as you know, and President Biden was nice enough to call me,&#8221; Goldman said on CNN. &#8220;I can tell you he was sharper than anyone I&#8217;ve spoken to about a very complex, geopolitical, urgent issue.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
8. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker
Also in February, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker (D) <a href="https://abc7chicago.com/president-joe-biden-documents-doj-report-governor-jb-pritzker/14405259/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> it was &#8220;extremely unfair&#8221; for a &#8220;Trump appointee,&#8221; referring to special counsel Robert Hur, to &#8220;offer his own opinions about the mental acuity or age&#8221; of the president.
&#8220;I&#8217;ve been with the President of the United States many times,&#8221; Pritzker said. &#8220;He is on the ball. The man knows more than most of us have forgotten.&#8221;
9. Senator Chris Coons
Just three weeks ago, Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) insisted that Biden showed not evidence of &#8220;mental feebleness,&#8221; but is in fact &#8220;sharp and commanding.&#8221;
“Of course Joe Biden is over 80 years old, and like any human being over 80 years old, that means there’s a little diminished energy,” Coons <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4709707-chris-coons-biden-diminished-energy-sharp-commanding/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Politico.
“I think what is highlighted in some of the, in my view, attack reels that I see on other news outlets is not evidence of mental feebleness but is either evidence of a lifelong stutter, or the result of having an incredibly demanding schedule and having served in public life 50 years,” he said. “When I say that I find him sharp and commanding, and I have no concerns about his mental acuity, I’m being honest.&#8221;
10. Senator Raphael Warnock
A year ago this month, Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) dismissed concerns about Biden&#8217;s age, saying &#8220;he&#8217;s doing just fine.&#8221;
Warnock <a href="https://www.axios.com/2023/06/14/warnock-biden-age-2024-election" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> at an Axios event he thinks Biden &#8220;will go down as certainly one of the most effective presidents we&#8217;ve seen, certainly in my lifetime.&#8221;

10 Biden Allies Who Promised Us He Was Fine Weeks Ago

Jill Biden

Trump 2024

Former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard explained how she believes her former party has damaged its standing with Christian voters, one of the largest voting blocs in the country.
In an interview with The Daily Wire over the weekend, Gabbard said that during her time as a Democratic politician, she noticed increasing &#8220;discomfort when people mention God or open a meeting with a prayer.&#8221;
&#8220;You see how this progression in the Democratic National Conventions over time, how once prayer and God, they were very much a part of many of the speeches that were given,&#8221; Gabbard told The Daily Wire.
&#8220;You go back to the last convention in 2020 and maybe there was one mention of God, but even in the Pledge of Allegiance, they took out &#8216;under God&#8217; when they said that,&#8221; she said.
Gabbard was a popular congresswoman from Hawaii and served as vice chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee until 2016. She even ran for president in the party&#8217;s 2020 primary before announcing in October 2022 that she had left the Democratic Party and was an independent.
&#8220;This is one of the reasons I left the Democratic Party, is they are undermining our freedom of religion and they are both directly and indirectly challenging our democracy and targeting people of faith and spirituality, especially Christians,&#8221; Gabbard said.
&#8220;So it&#8217;s no wonder why so many Christians and, and people of faith recognize the danger of what happens when you have a party in power trying to remove even any mention of God from every facet of our public life,&#8221; she added.
Beyond Christians, Gabbard said Democrats currently seem to be &#8220;alienating&#8221; everyone who is not &#8220;infected with their Trump derangement syndrome.&#8221;

&#8220;Common sense-minded Americans, independent-minded Americans, people who care about their kids, who are concerned about safety in our communities, who are concerned about the destruction of Title IX, who are concerned about parents wanting to have the power to make a decision where they send their kids to school,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Like how about let&#8217;s support small businesses instead of, you know, threatening a 40% increase in taxes that will directly impact them.&#8221;
Many people who have traditionally voted Democrat are now seeing &#8220;a very real difference in policies&#8221; and recognizing how &#8220;radical&#8221; the Democrats really are, Gabbard said.
&#8220;So whether it&#8217;s minority communities or other ethnic or religious demographics across the spectrum, we see people who&#8217;ve been taken for granted by the Democratic Party for a long time, people who recognize how the Democrats or elite are wildly out of touch with the everyday lives and challenges that people are facing in small towns and big cities and ultimately how insane and radical their agenda really is,&#8221; she said.
Gabbard&#8217;s remarks come as the 2024 presidential election heats up, with former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden facing off in their first debate of the election cycle Thursday evening.

President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden&#8217;s</a> re-election campaign said this week that despite Biden&#8217;s previous claim that he believes Florida is in play for 2024, they do not believe that the state is winnable for Democrats this upcoming election cycle.
Biden campaign chairperson Jen O’Malley Dillon was asked during an interview this week if the campaign believes that Florida is a battleground state.
&#8220;No,&#8221; she responded.
During a visit to the state in April, Biden said that he thought &#8220;Florida’s in play, nationally.&#8221;
Democrats used to have an advantage of 300,000 more registered voters than Republicans when DeSantis took over as governor.
However, under DeSantis&#8217; leadership, Republicans are now closing in on having more than a million more registered voters than Democrats have.
&#8220;For decades, Florida was the largest, most-important battleground state in presidential elections,&#8221; DeSantis posted on X this week in response to the Biden campaign acknowledging that the state is not winnable for Biden.
&#8220;Today, even the Biden campaign acknowledges that those days are over,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Florida is not in play in 2024.&#8221;

Dan Kanninen, the campaign’s battleground states director, tried to reverse what Dillon said, claiming: “Florida is in play for President Biden and Democrats up and down the ballot.”
Florida Democrat Party chairwoman Nikki Fried said that state Democrats were &#8220;not naive about the challenges ahead&#8221; for the party.
DNC chairman Jamie Harrison claimed that &#8220;the planets are aligning&#8221; in such a way that &#8220;Florida is going to be in that mix&#8221; this fall.

Trump first called for ending taxes on tips at a Nevada rally earlier this month, saying that “people that get tips” are “going to be very happy, because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips.”
Nevada has a large number of workers who receive tips, largely due to the recreation and tourism industries in the Las Vegas area.
Trump repeated his promise to the crowd at Turning Point Action&#8217;s convention in Michigan earlier this month.
&#8220;Tips for restaurant workers and hospitality workers and anyone else relying on tips, no more taxes on tips,&#8221; Trump said. &#8220;For restaurant workers or hotel workers or caddies or car people, it&#8217;s a lot. But anyone receiving tips, there&#8217;s no more tax on tips.&#8221;

&#8220;We mail &#8217;em and you stick &#8217;em!&#8221; reads the website for the sticker project. &#8220;From restaurants to beauty salons, to hotels to cabs and beyond, everyone deserves the full gratuity they worked hard to earn.&#8221;
The website also encourages people to share a photo of their sticker and receipt on social media with the hashtag #NoTipTaxes.
&#8220;The effort was inspired by the countless people that have been sharing images of them writing on receipts,&#8221; the super PAC said in an emailed press release.
Earlier this month, singer Kid Rock shared a photo of a receipt showing he had tipped $400 on a $1,143 bill at a steakhouse. On the receipt he had written, &#8220;A vote for Trump is a vote for no tax on tips!!&#8221;
Many other social media users shared photos of their receipts with similar messages as well.
On Saturday, Trump himself hopped on the trend when he stopped by a Philadelphia cheesesteak restaurant and left a $500 tip, writing &#8220;no tax on tip&#8221; on the receipt.
“It’s simple: President Trump wants hardworking American to keep more money in their pocket, Joe Biden wants to take it to give to illegal immigrants. President Trump’s plan is brilliant, and our sticker campaign will make sure it’s known far and wide,” said Taylor Budowich, CEO of Make America Great Again Inc.

A major <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/virginia" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blue state</a> has slipped into toss-up territory as President Biden&#8217;s poll numbers continue to flounder, according to a major poll rater.
Virginia is now <a href="https://www.realclearpolling.com/maps/president/2024/toss-up/electoral-college" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rated</a> a toss-up by RealClearPolitics, which analyzes and averages the latest polling for the 2024 election.

Virginia has 13 electoral votes, which Democrats have snagged in both of the last two presidential elections. A presidential candidate needs 270 electoral votes to secure victory.
In 2020, Biden won Virginia by 10 points or nearly half a million votes. In 2016, Hillary Clinton won the state by less, five points or about 200,000 votes.
Clinton&#8217;s popularity in Virginia may have been boosted by picking Virginia Senator Tim Kaine as her running mate.

However, Biden has slowly lost ground in Virginia this election cycle, according to polls from the last few months.
In a <a href="https://www.roanoke.edu/news/rc_poll_politics_may_2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">poll</a> from late May, Biden and former President Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, were shown tied 42-42.
In another estimate, Biden leads Donald Trump by just 0.1%, according to an average of 17 polls.
Other states marked as toss-ups by the poll rater are Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada,  Minnesota, North Carolina, and Georgia.
Overall, Trump <a href="https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/trump-vs-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">is up</a> over Biden by less than a point, according to the RealClearPolitics average of polls.
As of late last month, the former president was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-leads-biden-in-five-of-seven-swing-states-poll-finds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">leading</a> in five of six swing states, although Biden has been <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-donald-trump-polls-battleground-states-1908358" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shown</a> with a small lead in several of those states since then, according to some polls.
In 2020, Trump lost a slew of these battleground states: Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin.
With the election just five months away, both Trump and Biden have ramped up their campaign strategies. Democrats have leaned into the abortion issue and Trump&#8217;s recent felony conviction, while Republicans have doubled down on their attacks on the economy under Biden, immigration, and the court cases against Trump.
Trump is battling several court cases, one of which kept him stuck in a Manhattan courtroom all day for weeks until late last month, when he was convicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to hush-money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels. Trump scheduled rallies and other campaign events in the evenings, on weekends, and on Wednesdays when the court was not usually in session.
Later this month, voters will see the president and former president go head-to-head in the first presidential debate of the 2024 election cycle, which is scheduled for Thursday, June 27.
The first debate could jolt polling in favor of one candidate, at least briefly, as presidential debates have done in the past.

Blue State Now A Toss-Up As Biden Tumbles, Major Poll Rater Says

Virginia

President Joe Biden&#8217;s former press secretary, Jen Psaki, offered a shocking admission that Biden&#8217;s executive order on the southern border was meant to address a &#8220;political vulnerability.&#8221;
Psaki discussed the political implications of the border crisis on MSNBC on Wednesday.
&#8220;Politically, this is one of the biggest vulnerabilities,&#8221; Psaki said.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

&nbsp;
&#8220;Regardless of who&#8217;s mad about the details of what&#8217;s in here and what isn&#8217;t in here, it&#8217;s a political vulnerability for the president and his campaign,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;They know that. They knew they would have to do something like an executive order before the election politically as well. And that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re seeing play out.&#8221;
Psaki also admitted Wednesday that the border is &#8220;broken.&#8221;
&#8220;The border is broken for a range of reasons including security being broken at the border,&#8221; Psaki <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6354394962112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> during the TV segment. &#8220;The wall&#8217;s not going to fix it. I mean, technology has advanced, I would say, over the past couple of decades.&#8221;
Biden&#8217;s executive order was announced on Tuesday. The order will shut down the southern border when more than 2,500 migrants cross illegally every day for seven days in a row.
Once triggered, the order will remain in effect until two weeks after daily crossings drop to an average of 1,500 crossings a day for seven days in a row, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/06/06/us-news/jen-psaki-makes-stunning-admission-about-bidens-border-action-its-political/?utm_campaign=nypost&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to officials.
On Wednesday, the first day of the order, Border Patrol apprehended about 4,000 illegal immigrants, Fox News <a href="https://x.com/BillMelugin_/status/1798715698644201809" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>, citing Customs and Border Protection sources.
Biden declined to take questions about his executive order on Tuesday, including from a reporter who asked him, &#8220;Why now?&#8221;
The president&#8217;s move comes as immigration continues to dog him in public opinion as the election cycle heats up.
Earlier this year, immigration <a href="https://news.gallup.com/poll/644570/immigration-named-top-problem-third-straight-month.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">surged</a> to become the top issue on voters’ minds, bumping inflation down to second place, polls showed.

In the battleground states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, immigration ranks second in importance after only the economy, which typically dominates presidential elections, a new poll <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/biden-trump-poll-swing-states-battleground-election-1908122" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shows</a>.
Back in March, Psaki laughed with MSNBC host Rachel Maddow about immigration being the top voter concern in Virginia.
&#8220;Well, Virginia does have a border with West Virginia,&#8221; Maddow joked.
&#8220;Right, but you&#8217;re thinking, like, what?&#8221; Psaki responded.
Meanwhile, Biden has reversed many of former President Donald Trump&#8217;s border policies aimed at slowing the flow of illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border, including the Remain in Mexico policy, which forced illegal migrants to stay on the Mexican side of the border while they awaited their asylum hearings.

President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a>’s 2024 presidential campaign said this week that the stakes for the upcoming election are “sky high” so it will again accept dark money donations despite previously condemning such donations. 
Biden’s campaign made the statement to CBS News as it <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-64-million-mystery-anonymous-donations-2024-presidential-campaign/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> on a massive $64 million anonymous donation that was sent to his campaign in 2020. The donation was routed to his campaign coffers through the Impetus Fund, a 501c4 tax-exempt organization that says it is focused on “social welfare.” 
This pledge to accept dark money comes after Biden previously said that dark money “erodes public trust” and that it “flows in the shadows to influence our elections.” However, like in 2020, Biden has again signaled he has no issue taken money that is routed to his campaign coffers without scrutiny.
&#8220;The stakes of this election are sky high,&#8221; a Biden adviser told CBS. &#8220;We will protect our democracy with every tool that is legally available.&#8221;
The focus on Biden’s acceptance of dark money comes with lingering questions about the mysterious $64 million donation. A large bulk of that donation, $55 million, was moved from Impetus to Future Forward USA Action, a nonprofit Biden super PAC. Then, Future Forward USA Action sent $60 million to Future Forward PAC for use in electioneering, CBS News reported. Since the money was sent to the nonprofit first, the donor/donors were shielded from exposure. 
Little is known about the D.C.-based Impetus Fund except that it says it &#8220;works with changemakers across the country to unlock a more inclusive, accessible, and vibrant democracy.&#8221; The group&#8217;s president, Ezra Reese, is tied to Democrat election lawyer Marc Elias. Reese is the political law chair at the Elias Law Group.
Impetus is a project of Arabella Advisors, a massive leftist dark money group that had about $3 billion on hand for the 2022 midterm elections. Back in 2020, it had $410 million that it used against former President Donald Trump and Senate Republicans.
Biden’s acceptance of dark money funding has drawn criticism from government watchdog groups.
&#8220;For too long the left has been playing a game of decrying dark money while at the same time being fully dependent on it, even supercharging Mr. Biden&#8217;s reelection campaign,&#8221; Caitlin Sutherland, the executive director of Americans for Public Trust, told CBS.
Anna Massoglia, the editorial and investigations manager at OpenSecrets, said that dark money hid important information about who was trying to influence American voters. 
“Without information about who is funding groups spending to influence elections, voters won&#8217;t know who is trying to color their views, won&#8217;t be aware of any potential conflicts of interest that a funder has or what stake they may have in the outcome of the election,&#8221; she said.
So far in the 2024 election cycle, Biden has held a significant advantage in fundraising, but Trump has been pulling closer in recent months with big hulls coming alongside his legal battles.

Former President Donald Trump called Robert De Niro a &#8220;Wacko&#8221; after the actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-campaign-taps-robert-de-niro-to-rant-against-trump-outside-ny-trial-us-govt-will-perish?topStoryPosition=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appeared</a> for a Biden campaign event outside the Manhattan courthouse where Trump&#8217;s hush-money trial continued on Tuesday.
After an invitation from Team Biden, De Niro spoke to the press behind a podium in New York, claiming that American freedoms &#8220;will perish from the Earth&#8221; if Trump wins in November.
“Under Trump, this kind of government will perish from the Earth. I don’t mean to scare you. No, no, wait, maybe I do mean to scare you. If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted,” De Niro said, “And elections? Forget about them. That’s over, that’s done. If he gets in, I can tell you right now, he will never leave. He will never leave. You know that. He will never leave.”
De Niro, 80, added that &#8220;we don&#8217;t have a choice&#8221; but to vote for Biden &#8220;to preserve our freedoms and hold on to our humanity.&#8221;

Trump responded to the De Niro presser late Tuesday night, <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112522556937548408" target="_blank" rel="noopener">writing</a> on Truth Social that the actor &#8220;looked so pathetic and sad out there.&#8221;
&#8220;I never knew how small, both mentally and physically, Wacko Former Actor Robert De Niro was. Today, De Niro, who suffers from an incurable case of TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, commonly known in the medical community as TDS, was met, outside the Courthouse, with a force far greater than the Radical Left &#8211; MAGA,&#8221; Trump wrote. &#8220;Robert, whose movies, artistry, and brand have gone WAY DOWN IN VALUE since he entered the political arena at the request of Crooked Joe Biden, looked so pathetic and sad out there. Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio!!!&#8221;
The actor also exchanged words with some of Trump&#8217;s supporters who were also outside the courthouse on Tuesday, according to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/05/28/biden-trump-trial-strategy-00160274" target="_blank" rel="noopener">POLITICO</a>.
&#8220;You are gangsters!&#8221; De Niro reportedly shouted to which one man responded by telling the actor he was &#8220;washed up.&#8221;

The press event featuring De Niro marks an increase in the Biden campaign&#8217;s focus on Trump&#8217;s ongoing criminal trial and could preview a new strategy from Biden as the trial nears its end. The president has stayed quiet on Trump&#8217;s hush-money case throughout the campaign, but a report from POLITICO last week cited “four people familiar with internal deliberations” in the Biden administration who said the president is planning to address the trial from the White House once the jury reaches a verdict.
The Biden campaign&#8217;s apparent shift in strategy comes as Trump continues to lead the president in most polls, including in each of the seven battleground states, according to the polling average compiled by <a href="https://www.realclearpolling.com/elections/president/2024/battleground-states" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RealClearPolitics</a> as of Wednesday morning.

Former President Donald Trump and the Republican Party outraised President Joe Biden and the Democrats by $25 million last month, pushing Trump&#8217;s campaign closer to matching Biden&#8217;s war chest.
Trump and the GOP reported taking in a combined $76 million in April, an amount that was boosted by Trump&#8217;s record $50.5 million haul at a single event with wealthy donors in early April, ABC News <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/biden-democrats-raised-51-million-april-trump-gops-110420422" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Biden and the Democratic National Committee, meanwhile, reported raking in around $51 million last month.
&#8220;JUST OUT: Trump Campaign April fundraising far exceeds the Radical Left Democrats,&#8221; the presumptive GOP presidential nominee <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112479194556726629" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> on Truth Social. &#8220;TRUMP, $76,000,000. Radical Left &amp; Crooked Joe, $51,000,000. MAGA2024!&#8221;
The former president&#8217;s April haul was an improvement over the impressive numbers reported by his campaign and the Republican Party for March, when Trump and the RNC reported <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-rnc-posts-impressive-fundraising-haul-in-march-but-remain-far-behind-bidens-war-chest" target="_blank" rel="noopener">receiving $65.6 million</a>. As of the end of April, Team Biden said it had $192 million cash on hand, which was around the same amount the Democrat&#8217;s campaign said it had at the end of March, which shows the campaign is likely spending its money quickly, according to ABC News.
While the fundraising numbers from Trump and the RNC improved from March to April, Biden and the Democrats reported a significantly lower haul last month than the over $90 million the campaign received in March. Team Biden&#8217;s March numbers were helped by an event with former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, which raised $25 million for Biden.
The Biden campaign has boasted about its fundraising success in recent months and said that Trump &#8220;trails badly in cash on hand.&#8221;
The Trump campaign, however, said the most recent report shows that momentum is on the former president&#8217;s side. Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles, senior advisers for the Trump campaign, said, &#8220;with half of funds raised coming from small dollar donors, it is clear that our base is energized.&#8221;
The advisers added, &#8220;we are raising the resources necessary to deliver a victory in November,&#8221; Fox News <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2024-showdown-trump-tops-biden-april-campaign-cash-dash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.
