Biden Campaign Demanded Milwaukee Radio Station Edit Post-Debate Interview.

Joe Biden’s re-election campaign demanded Civic Media’s Milwaukee-based progressive radio host Earl Ingram edit his interview with the 81-year-old Democrat before it aired. The radio network insists the edits to the interview, recorded on July 3 and aired on July 4, were non-substantive, but acknowledges they complied with the Biden campaign’s demand.

“On Monday, July 8th, it was reported to Civic Media management that immediately after the phone interview was recorded, the Biden campaign called and asked for two edits to the recording before it aired,” the radio station said in a statement on Thursday. “Civic Media management immediately undertook an investigation and determined that the production team at the time viewed the edits as non-substantive and broadcast and published the interview with two short segments removed.”

In response to the revelation regarding the edited interview, Civic Media stated they would make the entire, unedited conversation with Biden available online. According to the station, Biden cut two comments from the aired interview, which occurred at 5:20 and 14:15 minutes, respectively.

The first edit removed a claim by Biden regarding diversity in his government. Biden said: “…and in addition to that, I have more Blacks in my administration than any other president, all other presidents combined, and in major positions, cabinet positions.”

In the second edit, Biden incoherently references former President Donald J. Trump‘s remarks regarding the Central Park Five. “I don’t know if they even call for their hanging or not, but he–but they said […] convicted of murder,” the octogenarian Democrat babbles.

The National Pulse reported on Monday that Pennsylvania talk radio host Andrea Lawful-Sanders was fired by her station after it was revealed she used Biden campaign-provided questions for his post-debate interview.

Biden Refused to Sit for Interview With Time Magazine Reporter, Unlike Trump.

TIME Magazine writer Eric Cortellessa acknowledged that the 81-year-old Democrat incumbent Joe Biden rejected the same interview request accepted by former President Donald Trump. As the lengthy interview came to a close, Cortellessa suggested a series of rapid-fire questions to which Trump agreed — but not before he asked if the TIME writer thought that Biden would be able to do the same.

“All right. Do you think you could do this interview with Biden?” the former Republican President asked. Cortellessa responded, “You know, he didn’t say yes. So I’m grateful that you’re giving me the opportunity.” Trump expressed his doubts that Biden would ever accept the interview offer, telling Cortellessa: “He will never say yes, cause he’s off. He’s off, way off.”

The admission by Cortellessa that Biden had declined an interview with the magazine comes as the corporate media wavers in running cover for the Democrat leader’s declining mental faculties. The Biden White House has taken great pains to ensure the 81-year-old only engages in carefully scripted interviews, often requiring reporters to submit questions beforehand. Most recently, the White House heavily promoted Biden’s interview with radio host Howard Stern, in which the one-time shock jock gushed over the Democrat President for a little over an hour and offered only softball questions.

Unlike Biden, whose communications team will abruptly end interviews when the 81-year-old Democrat begins to stray off message, Trump offered to extend the interview with TIME — eventually doing a follow-up interview over the phone.

Transcript Reveals BIDEN LIED After Classified Docs Report — He *DID* Forget When Son Beau Died & Forgot He Was VP in 2009!

The transcript of Joe Biden’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur reveals that the angry response from the 46th President in response to the report’s publication contained yet another lie. Speaking immediately after its publication Biden screamed at the press corps in the White House: “How in the hell dare he raise that? Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself it wasn’t any of their damn business.”

But Hur didn’t ask, and Biden didn’t remember, despite claiming at the time: “I don’t need anyone to remind me when he passed away.”

But the official transcript of the interview between Hur and Biden not only reveals it was Biden who raised the subject, as he often does in public speeches, but also had to rely on several aides to remember when his son Beau passed away.

“And so I hadn’t, I hadn’t at this point … I hadn’t walked away from the idea that I may run for office again. But if I ran again, I’d be running for president,” Biden said, according to the transcript. “And, and so what was happening though — what month did Beau die? Oh, God, May 30th–”

After two other individuals present at the interview reminded him that Beau died in 2015, Biden asked: “Was it 2015 he had died?”

“It was May of 2015,” one aide replied.

In another exchange, Biden asked out loud, “Was I still vice president? I was, wasn’t I? Yeah.” The document he was looking at was dated 2009, and he had only been Vice President for four months at the time.

At another point, he said, “Well, if it was 2013 — when did I stop being vice president?”

Rachel Cotton, from the White House Counsel’s Office, was forced to remind him that he left office in 2017.

Hur is testifying before the House Committee on Oversight today, where he is expected to reiterate his findings over Biden, the classified documents he kept, and his failing memory.
