A Pennsylvania talk radio station has severed ties with host Andrea Lawful-Sanders following revelations that the Joe Biden campaign provided questions for his post-debate interview. Sara M. Lomax, President and CEO of WURD Radio, confirmed Lawful-Sanders’ departure, stating the interview was arranged independently without the station’s knowledge or consent.
Lawful-Sanders admitted to CNN that Biden’s team had supplied several questions. She selected four to pose during the interview, which aired on July 4. Despite Biden campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt claiming hosts were free to ask any questions they chose, the incident raised concerns over journalistic independence at WURD Radio.
Lomax announced areview of their policies in light of the incident and highlighted WURD’s status as the only black-owned and operated talk radio station in Pennsylvania.
The controversy stemmed from Biden‘s interview aimed at addressing concerns over his debateperformance against Donald Trump. Biden’s team had facilitated similar interviews with other swing state radio stations, focusing on issues relevant to black voters.
The incident comes as Biden’s cognitive decline has become more and more of an issue to Democrats and their allies in the media as many call for Biden to step aside in the race.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre hung up on a radio interviewer in March being asked whether Biden showed signs of dementia.

Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, is predicting there could be a fresh snap election in France sooner rather than later. Speaking to War Room host Ben Harnwell, Kassam emphasized the huge differences between the far-left New Popular Front (NFP), which placed first, and the globalist-progressive Ensemble bloc, centered on President Emmanuel Macron’s Renaissance party.
“This might actually be the saving grace… This coalition is going to be so shaky; they’re going to be at each other’s throats all the time, and they’re never going to be able to compromise with each other on a vast array of issues,” Kassam said.
“Jean-Luc Melenchon, the anti-NATO leader of the France Unbowed party, is the NFP’s leading figure. NFP does not have enough legislators to govern alone, however, and the Macronists are intensely distrustful of Melenchon. They may try to peel off other NFP parties, such as the Socialists, Communists, and Ecologists, to form a government without him.
“It doesn’t just come down to one or two things. It’s not just about the economy; it’s not just about immigration; it’s not just about ecology and the environment,” Kassam explained. “There are vast swathes of policy positions that all these separate parties that have pulled together this kind of unholy alliance of the left vehemently and violently disagree with one another on,” he stressed.
“It makes you wonder, can there even really be any form of government here? And if there can’t, well, maybe we’ll see another election. That is not beyond the realm of possibility at this point… We see this happen across Europe all the time—’We can’t get anything done, we have to go back to the people, we have to ask them to give somebody a mandate to govern,'” he added.

Despite mounting pressure from donors and congressional Democrats to drop out of the 2024 presidential race, 81-year-old Democratic incumbent Joe Biden remains defiant. On Monday, a meeting between Biden and congressional Democrats led by Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) was abruptly canceled. Instead, Democrats on Capitol Hill received a lengthy letter from the 2024 nominee stating he will not leave the race.
“Now that you have returned from the July 4th recess, I want you to know that despite all the speculation in the press and elsewhere, I am firmly committed to staying in this race, to running this race to the end, and to beating Donald Trump,” the letter from the Biden White House reads. He continues: “We had a Democratic nomination process and the voters have spoken clearly and decisively. I received over 14 million votes, 87 [percent] of the votes cast across the entire nominating process. I have nearly 3,900 delegates, making me the presumptive nominee of our party by a wide margin.”
Biden’s letter strikes a domineering tone. In it, he reminds Congressional Democrats, donors, and television talking heads that he—and he alone—is the Democratic nominee and that they cannot force him from the race.
Democratic resistance to a second Biden run for the White House has grown in the week-and-a-half since his disastrous presidential debate against former President Donald J. Trump. Party leaders have pointed to Biden’s plummeting poll numbers and growing concern among voters regarding the 81-year-old Democrat’s physical and cognitive health.
Despite the significant setback to his campaign and attempts by his own party to get him to leave the race, Biden has repeatedly insisted over the last week that he will not leave and intends to see his campaign through to the election in November.

The extreme left has won the French legislative elections after striking an anti-populist pact with President Emmanuel Macron’s globalist Ensemble bloc. Marine Le Pen’s National Rally (RN) placed first in the election’s first round, with the far-left New Popular Front (NFP) coalition in second and the Macronists a distant third. The pact, which saw NFP candidates stand aside for Ensemble where they had the better chance of defeating RN, and vice versa, saw the far left rise to first place and the Macronists rise to second, with Le Pen’s party in third.
Jordan Bardella, the RN president who would have become Prime Minister had the populists won the election, called the “unnatural” left-globalist pact a “dishonorable alliance” that has “thrown France to Jean-Luc Melenchon’s extreme left,” referring to the leader of the France Unbowed party that the NPF centers on. Le Pen herself says the election shows the “tide is rising,” with more RN lawmakers in the National Assembly than ever. “Our victory has only been delayed,” she insists.
Meanwhile, the French far left, which rioted after RN won the election’s first round, rioted again, despite winning.

President Emmanuel Macron called the legislative election on short notice after RN won the European elections in France. He likely believed the populists lacked the resources to fight another election so soon and could be robbed of their momentum.
While Macron’s eleventh-hour alliance with the extreme left has successfully blocked a populist government, it may prove as damaging to him as to Le Pen. His handpicked prime minister, Gabriel Attal, is already tendering his resignation, though he will remain in post as a so-called caretaker for now.
Jean-Luc Melenchon, whose coalition partners include the French Communist Party, wants economic policies far to the left of Macron’s, including tens of billions of dollars in tax hikes, over a hundred billion dollars in additional spending, and reversing Macron’s increase of the state pension age from 62 to 64.
More concerningly for the European establishment, he is a staunch ally of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), a critic of the European Union (EU), and favors leaving NATO. He also opposes arming Ukraine. In 2014, he supported Russia’s annexation of Crimea as a “protective measure against an adventurous putschist power.”
“The Russian nation cannot allow the North Americans and NATO to settle on their doorstep,” he added.
These differences guarantee a huge fight between the far left and the Macronists over the coming weeks, as neither have an outright majority in the National Assembly.
Macron’s presidential term does not expire until 2027 and he claims he will not resign. However, Le Pen believes his position is now “untenable.”

An exit poll released as voting ends in the British election projects a historic breakthrough for Nigel Farage’s Reform Party. The populists are projected to win 13 seats in the House of Commons.
The Labour Party led by Sir Keir Starmer is projected to have won a historic landslide, as predicted, earning an estimated 410 seats to 131 for the Conservatives, who have led Britain for 14 years.
British pollster John Curtice notes the Conservatives seem to have “fallen far in seats they previously held,” while “Reform has advanced most in areas people voted Leave in the 2016 EU referendum.”
“It looks as though Reform may win more seats than many polls suggested,” he observes, adding that “how many seats Reform will win is highly uncertain,” with models suggesting “there are many places where they have some—but a relatively low—chance of winning.”
However, Farage himself is said to have a 99 percent chance of winning the Clacton-on-Sea constituency (electoral district) he is contesting.
British exit polls, based on surveys of voters who have cast their ballots, are typically highly accurate, with no significant errors since 1992.

Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof delivered his inaugural address to parliament on Wednesday, expressing a commitment to curbing immigration. Schoof, who ascended to the prime minister’s office after months of negotiations between populist and center-right political parties to form a government, stated: “The biggest of those concerns is asylum and migration. That is the crux of the matter, no matter how you look at it.”
Schoof, 67, is a former chief of Dutch intelligence and counterterrorism. His appointment occurred amidst the formation of a new coalition government following the collapse of the previous governing coalition on July 7 of last year. The anti-mass migration Party for Freedom, led by Geert Wilders, secured the largest number of seats in the country’s November 2023 election. However, it took 223 days to establish a four-party coalition, as opposition from other coalition partners prevented Wilders from obtaining the premiership.
The governing coalition includes Wilders‘ Party for Freedom (PVV), former Prime Minister Mark Rutte‘s center-right People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, the populist Farmer Citizen Movement, and the New Social Contract party. Its guiding document, ‘Hope, Courage, and Pride,’ outlines stringent asylum measures, abolishes family reunification (chain immigration) for refugees, and aims to decrease the number of international students in the Netherlands.
“Migration puts too much pressure on social services and social cohesion. The asylum and migration figures are high and so is the pressure on society,” Schoof told lawmakers.
Conversely, opposition leader Frans Timmermans—of the social democrat-green alliance—harshly criticized the new government, labeling the Party for Freedom-inspired policies “racist.” He also announced plans to submit a motion of no-confidence against two cabinet members from Wilders‘ party.
In response, Wilders denied any allegations of “Nazi racist theories” among his party colleagues.

Nigel Farage’s rival from Britain’s governing Conservative (Tory) Party in the Clacton constituency (electoral district) is complaining his mega rallies are “reminiscent of the big rallies at Nuremberg” under Adolf Hitler.
“It’s a personality cult that’s been created. There may be no evil intent, but it feels wrong and bad,” Conservative candidate Giles Watling whined, apparently unable to conceive of a politician popular enough with the public to draw a substantial crowd.
Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, attended a “massive, Trump-style rally” for Nigel Farage and his Reform Party in Birmingham, England’s second city, over the weekend, describing it as “incredible” and observing that “this sort of thing doesn’t really happen in England.”
Watling concurs, but considers the idea of a politician capable of attracting mass support “chilling” and claims the rallies are a “very un-British way of doing things.”
Farage is defending his supporters, chastising Watling for having “contempt for the thousands of decent people who turned up in Birmingham… and those who come to my rallies in Clacton.”
“They are decent, law-abiding citizens. How dare he insult them like that?” he said.

Former Joe Biden regime official Sam Brinton has avoided jail time after pleading guilty to misdemeanor petit larceny in a plea deal announced last week in Arlington General District Court. Brinton, formerly a highly-paid nuclear official at the Department of Energy, initially faced felony charges that could have resulted in a 20-year sentence.
Brinton admits to stealing luggage belonging to Tanzanian fashion designer Asya Khamsin six years ago at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. As part of a plea agreement, the non-binary Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence “abbess” will participate in an adult diversion program, which includes mental health treatment, writing an apology letter to Khamsin, and 50 hours of community service. The charges were reduced from grand larceny.
This is the third time the drag queen has avoided incarceration for stealing women’s luggage for their underwear and other clothing while on government business.
In a related civil case filed in Montgomery County, Maryland, Brinton has reached a settlement with Khamsin, agreeing to an undisclosed financial payment and issuing a personal apology.
Brinton was arrested in May of last year as a “fugitive from justice,” months after The National Pulse exposed the “gender non-binary” former official as a luggage thief and a defender of “rentboy.com,” a site that was raided by authorities over illegal prostitution claims.

Globalist and far-left candidates in France are strategically uniting ahead of the July 7 second round of the French legislative elections. They aim to thwart the National Rally (RN) party led by Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella, which won the first round, from earning a majority.
Over 200 candidates from both the New Popular Front—centered on Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s far-left France Unbowed party—and the Ensemble bloc—centered on President Emmanuel Macron’s globalist Renaissance party—have withdrawn from district races to give each other’s candidates a better chance of defeating RN.
The New Popular Front placed second in the first round, with the Macronists falling to third place.
Mélenchon has done a better job forcing his third-placed candidates to stand aside than Macron. The Ensemble camp faces internal divisions, with some reluctant to endorse far-left candidates due to economic and foreign policy disagreements.
Only candidates who secured over 50 percent of the vote in the first round are already guaranteed a seat in the National Assembly. Three or more candidates have qualified for the second round in over 300 districts out of 577, with the number of races that will be reduced to two-way contests due to withdrawals not yet officially confirmed by the Interior Ministry but likely to be substantial.

Joe Biden reportedly required a teleprompter to deliver a few brief remarks at an East Hampton fundraiser over the weekend, raising further questions about his fitness. Supporters at the event were alarmed Biden needed a teleprompter to deliver his remarks, with one attendee saying, “If you believe the stakes of the race are what they are… you can’t be like, ‘No, you all didn’t see what you just saw.'”
Following Biden’s disastrous debate performance last Thursday, some Democrat lawmakers—along with the corporate media—have been openly critical of the White House’s handling of the 81-year-old incumbent. The lack of access granted to Biden by his inner circle has especially been a point of contention.
“He doesn’t take advice from anyone other than those few top aides, and it becomes a perfect storm because he just gets more and more isolated from their efforts to control it,” a senior official said. They added that many staffers are “scared shitless” of setting Biden off during briefings.
The shocking revelation as to the extent of Biden’s cognitive decline has thrown his re-election campaign into chaos. Some donors are even asking the Biden campaign to refund their contributions. Julie Chavez Rodriguez, Biden’s campaign manager, emphasized on a call with major donors on Sunday that if Biden stepped down as the Democratic nominee, only Vice President Kamala Harris could access the current campaign funds.
Despite the overwhelming criticism, Biden’s son Hunter and wife Jill are pushing for him to remain in the race.
