Joe Scarborough Demands Biden Advisors Intervene & End Campaign: ‘Not Going To End Well.’

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough is calling on those closest to Joe Biden to “do the right thing” and push the 81-year-old Democrat out of the 2024 presidential race. A close ally of Biden, Scarborough has until now defended the octogenarian career politician’s decision to push forward with his re-election bid despite plummeting support and concerns about his cognitive decline.

“You know, it’s really incumbent on people that are around Joe Biden to step up at this point and help the President. And help the man they love. And do the right thing,” Scarborough said during Thursday morning’s episode of Morning Joe. “This is not going to end well if it continues to drag out.”

The Congressman turned left-wing news host stopped short of directly telling Biden he needed to leave the race. Instead, Scarborough suggested that Biden’s re-election bid has been hampered by aides who exist in a “bubble” and are not telling the incumbent the truth about his failing campaign.

“The anger that I hear is not at Joe Biden. The anger I hear are at the people [sic] who are keeping him in a bubble,” Scarborough said. The MSNBC host added: “That’s not just the anger from inside Congress. That is anger from inside the political, his own political camp, and it is widespread.”

As recently as March, the talk show host was insisting, “This version of Biden, intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever.”

Monday’s episode of Morning Joe was pulled amidst fears from MSNBC executives that Scarborough and co-host Mika Brzezinski —or their regular guests—could say something “inappropriate” about the assassination attempt against Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday.

When they returned, the seething couple threatened to quit the network if they are benched in the same way again.

Calls to Impeach Judge Boasberg as Appeals Court Blocks ‘Improper’ Anti-Trump Contempt Crusade.

A federal appeals court has ordered an end to Judge James Boasberg’s contempt investigation into the Trump administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal immigrants.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has ordered Judge James Boasberg to cease his “intrusive criminal contempt investigation” into Trump administration officials who used the Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal immigrants. The decision was made by a 2-1 vote, with Judges Rao and Walker, both appointed by President Donald J. Trump, in favor, and Judge Childs, appointed by former President Joe Biden, dissenting.
📰 DETAIL: Judge Boasberg had previously issued a vaguely-worded temporary restraining order (TRO) to halt the deportation of Venezuelan nationals linked to the Tren de Aragua gang to El Salvador mid-flight, accusing the administration of criminal contempt when it transferred custody of the migrants to Salvadoran authorities on arrival. The Barack Obama-appointed judge pursued his contempt investigation aggressively, even threatening to breach attorney-client privilege, based on his personal reinterpretation of what the order meant. The appeals court ruled strongly against him, stating, “The TRO simply said nothing about transferring custody… In our constitutional system of government, criminal liability cannot turn on the unstated intentions (or post hoc assertions) of a district court judge. The pursuit of this improper investigation is a clear abuse of discretion.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “It’s clear: time to impeach Rogue Judge Boasberg.” – Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO)
🎯 IMPACT: The ruling effectively halts any further legal action against Trump officials regarding the deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, in a significant legal victory for the administration. Senator Eric Schmitt, citing the appeal court’s ruling that Boasberg engaged in a “clear abuse of discretion,” took to social media to say it is now time to impeach the “rogue” judge. Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) previously introduced articles of impeachment against Boasberg for allowing Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) special counsel Jack Smith to target Republican lawmakers, operatives, and organizations in a politically motivated probe.

Spain is About to Give Amnesty to Half a Million Illegals.

Spain’s government has approved a controversial plan to legalize 500,000 illegal migrants—meaning they will likely have access to all 27 member states of the European Union (EU) in time.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Spain’s socialist-led government, under Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, has approved legislation granting legal status to approximately 500,000 illegal immigrants. Applicants must prove just five months of residency in Spain, along with a clean criminal record.
📺 DETAIL: Sánchez described the “extraordinary regularization,” via Royal Decree, as “An act of normalization, of recognizing the reality of nearly half a million people who already form part of our daily life,” as well as “an act of justice and a necessity.” He and his supporters argue that the regularized illegals will help sustain Spain’s public services and aging native population, although the evidence from Britain and other European countries suggests that low-skilled foreigners are generally a net drain on the public finances. The Funcas think-tank estimates there are around 840,000 illegal immigrants in Spain, most of whom are from Latin America.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The Spanish people have not given permission for this. If the illegals ‘already form part of our daily life’ it is only because you and the [formerly governing People’s Party] have let them in against our laws and against our interests. The people will not forgive it. Sooner rather than later you will have to pay for it.” – Santiago Abascal, leader of Spain’s populist nationalist VOX party
🎯 IMPACT: Supporters of the amnesty claim that integrating illegals will boost the economy, but critics warn it will only incentivize further illegal migration. Notably, as Spain is a member of the European Union (EU), its regularization of the migrants paves the way for them to eventually have access to all 27 of the bloc’s member states, under its Free Movement internal migration regime.
📺 FLASHBACK: Spain has previously implemented migrant amnesties under both Socialist and notionally center-right People’s Party (PP) governments, with the last major legalization occurring in 2005, granting residency to 577,000 migrants.

SCANDAL: Biden DOJ Targeted Pro-Lifers.

An internal Department of Justice (DOJ) review reveals biased enforcement of the FACE Act under the Biden government, including collaboration with pro-abortion groups and harsher penalties for pro-life activists.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A Department of Justice (DOJ) review has exposed significant bias in the enforcement of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act under the Biden government, including withholding evidence, targeting pro-life activists with aggressive arrest tactics, and seeking harsher penalties for them compared to pro-abortion defendants.
📺 DETAIL: The DOJ review, spanning over 700,000 records, revealed that the Biden-era DOJ collaborated with groups like Planned Parenthood, the Feminist Majority Foundation, and the National Abortion Federation to monitor and prosecute pro-life activists. Emails showed DOJ officials referring to Christian pro-lifers as “culty” and working to exclude them from jury pools, as well as complaining about a “very Catholic” magistrate who was “very particular” about “not infringing on [defendants’ First Amendment rights.” The review also highlighted that pro-life defendants faced an average of 26.8 months in prison, more than double the average of 12.3 months sought for pro-abortion defendants.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The weaponization that happened under the Biden Administration will not happen again, as we restore integrity to our prosecutorial system.” – Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche
🎯 IMPACT: The review’s findings have prompted internal referrals for potential criminal prosecution or disciplinary action against DOJ employees involved. The revelations have also intensified scrutiny of the Biden government’s approach to justice and its apparent targeting of political and religious opponents.
📺 FLASHBACK: The FACE Act, enacted in 1994, was designed to protect access to abortion clinics and religious institutions. However, critics have long argued that its enforcement has been uneven, depending on the political leanings of those in power.

Authorities Claimed a Child Murderer Was Simply Autistic. Then He Attacked, Killing Three.

An inquiry has found that multiple agencies failed to act on clear warnings about Axel Rudakubana’s violent tendencies, leading to his infamous child stabbing attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: An inquiry led by retired high court judge Sir Adrian Fulford found that warnings about child murderer Axel Rudakubana’s violent behavior were repeatedly ignored by various agencies in the lead up to a deadly stabbing attack on a children’s dance class in Southport, England, which killed three children and injured 10 others in 2024. Rudakubana was sentenced to life imprisonment, with a minimum sentence of 52 years.
📺 DETAIL: The inquiry, concluded this week, highlighted systemic failures in addressing Rudakubana’s behavior, which was often excused due to his autism diagnosis. Despite numerous red flags, including possession of weapons and violent outbursts, agencies failed to intervene effectively. Notably, his former school principal, Joanne Hodson, told the inquiry she had previously identified Rudakubana as “very high risk,” but was “shut down” by a mental health worker who accused her of racially profiling a “black boy with a knife.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Far from recognising that [Rudakubana] was responsible for his own actions … agencies regularly used his autism as an explanation or even an excuse for his conduct, including his violence. This was both unacceptable and superficial,” said Sir Adrian Fulford.
🎯 IMPACT: The failure to act on Rudakubana’s behavior resulted in the gruesome deaths of three young girls during the attack. The inquiry calls for a reevaluation of how agencies handle similar cases and stresses the need for better communication and accountability.
‼️ BLAME: Government agencies such as Lancashire Police, counterterrorism (PREVENT) officers, social services workers, and mental health staff in Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) were all held responsible by the inquiry.

Swalwell Accusers Go Public: ‘He Thought He Was Untouchable.’

Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) has announced his resignation from Congress and withdrawal from the California gubernatorial race following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct, including claims of assault and inappropriate messaging.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Accusers of Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) have come forward following his resignation from Congress, which follows allegations of sexual misconduct. Multiple women have accused Swalwell of sending inappropriate messages, unsolicited explicit photos, and even sexual assault, prompting investigations by authorities.
📺 DETAIL: Swalwell is alleged to have abused his position under the pretense of professional mentorship by multiple women, sending them inappropriate and explicit images. Ally Sammarco, who previously came forward publicly, has now been joined by Annika Albrecht, who told CBS, “For me, justice won’t be until he can’t ever harm a woman ever again, and he has faced the consequences for the women that he has harmed.” The women are not satisfied with his resignation from Congress, noting that he appears to have done so only to spare himself the embarrassment of being forcibly expelled by fellow lawmakers.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “He thought he was untouchable. He acted with total impunity. He never thought that the consequences of his actions would follow him,” said accuser Ally Sammarco.
🎯 IMPACT: Swalwell’s resignation buries high political aspirations. He had previously run for President, and was in the middle of a now-abandoned bid for Governor of California, when the current scandal overtook him. The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office is investigating the accusation of sexual assault, which Swalwell denies, calling the allegations politically motivated. The scandal has sparked broader discussions about accountability in politics and the misuse of power by Democrat officials.
📺 FLASHBACK: Swalwell has been embroiled in scandals in the past, including questions about his connections to a suspected Chinese spy.

GOP Rep Finally Resigning After Sex Scandal.

Congressman Tony Gonzales (R-TX) has announced his retirement following revelations of an affair with a former aide who tragically passed away in 2025, sparking an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) has announced his long-awaited retirement from Congress following the disclosure of an affair with a former aide, Regina Ann Santos-Aviles, who died by suicide in 2025. The announcement coincides with an ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation into allegations of misconduct.
📰 DETAIL: Gonzales finally admitted to the affair earlier this year, describing it as a “lapse in judgment” during a radio interview. The relationship reportedly became known among staff during the 2024 election cycle, and Santos-Aviles’s husband discovered text messages revealing the affair shortly after Gonzales narrowly won a GOP primary runoff. Santos-Aviles took her own life in 2025, and the Ethics Committee is investigating whether Gonzales violated the Code of Official Conduct or engaged in improper behavior.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “There is a season for everything and God has a plan for us all. When Congress returns tomorrow, I will file my retirement from office.” – Rep. Tony Gonzales
🎯 IMPACT: Gonzales represents Texas’s 23rd Congressional District, which has been mostly establishment Republican held since its redistricting inception in the early 2000s. Prior to that, it leaned Democrat.

Dems Push ‘Stop Nick Shirley Act’ to Silence Citizen Journalists Exposing Fraud.

Instead of clamping down on fraud, California Democrats are going after the citizen journalists exposing it.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: California Democrats have voted for a highly controversial law that would clamp down on citizen journalists exposing fraud and abuse. Dubbed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act”—in reference to the citizen journalist who exposed the Somali daycare fraud scandal in Minnesota—by Assemblyman Carl DeMaio (R), the new law (AB 2624) would have a chilling effect on free speech, silencing citizen journalists and protecting taxpayer-funded organizations from public scrutiny.
📺 DETAIL: AB 2624 would empower organizations providing services to migrants to demand the removal of video evidence of misconduct, supposedly to protect them from “threats of violence.” The law also threatens journalists with large financial penalties, dissuading them from reporting on public interest stories. It would, according to DeMaio, prevent criticism of any organization nominally tasked with providing aid and support to migrants, hindering investigative reporting into potential wrongdoing.

💬 KEY QUOTE: “If this bill becomes law, the message is clear to every journalist in California: expose corruption, and you will be punished. AB 2624 is an unconstitutional direct attack on transparency and the First Amendment—and it needs to be defeated.” – Assemblyman Carl DeMaio

🎯 IMPACT: The bill is a reaction to viral reporting by independent citizen journalists such as Nick Shirley, who have exposed fraud and abuse. Shirley’s investigative reporting into welfare fraud in Minnesota—which heavily implicated the Somali community in defrauding childcare programs, costing taxpayers billions—caused Democrat Governor and former vice presidential candidate Tim Walz to abandon his reelection bid, proving its potential to influence state and national politics..

DATA: Migrants Behind Surge in Sex Crimes in This European Country.

Politicians from the party once led by Angela Merkel, who allowed millions of migrants into Germany, now concede that they are greatly overrepresented among sexual predators.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: New data from the German police reveals that the number of reported sexual assault cases in the country has skyrocketed in recent years, with migrants overrepresented among perpetrators. A majority of suspects still have German citizenship—this will include naturalized and second-generation migrants—but foreigners are account for a far larger proportion than their share of the population.
📺 DETAIL: In 2025, there were a total of 13,920 sexual assault cases in Germany. In 2018, there were 8,106 cases, indicating an increase of approximately 72 percent and reflecting a long-term trend of rising sexual violence. Data on the share of rapes committed by migrants in 2025 will not be released until later this month, but data from 2024 shows roughly 41 percent of suspects for “crimes against sexual self-determination,” which includes rape, were foreign nationals. “Zuwanderers”—a sub-category of foreigners including asylum seekers and refugees—accounted for 15 to 18 percent of rape suspects in 2024, despite being only two to three percent of the population.

💬 KEY QUOTE: “The truth is that perpetrators with a migration background are overrepresented,” admitted Roman Poseck, a senior official in the federal state of Hesse for Germany’s governing CDU, formerly led by Angela Merkel.

🎯 IMPACT: In some German states, migrants are nearly 50 percent of the perpetrators of certain categories of violent crime. In Bavaria and Hesse, for instance, reports indicate that non-German suspects are three to four times as likely to commit a serious sexual offense.
📺 FLASHBACK: The German government abandoned efforts to put the rising, anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party under surveillance last year, after the Trump administration publicly intervened, stating, “That’s not democracy—it’s tyranny in disguise.”

Trump Allies form ‘Mass Deportation Coalition,’ Urging President to Go FURTHER on Key Campaign Pledge.

The Mass Deportation Coalition is urging President Trump to adhere to his campaign promises amid concerns of waning deportation rhetoric.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Mass Deportation Coalition is pushing President Donald J. Trump to fulfill his campaign promise of mass deportations, as the administration appears to be softening its stance on the issue. Notably, following the fatal shooting of two pro-illegal immigration agitators in Minnesota, the administration wound down its deportation mission in the state, and White House Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair reportedly told Republican lawmakers to deemphasize deporting all illegal immigrants rather than only dangerous criminals.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Our basic goal of the mass deportation coalition is to actually provide Trump with what we call kind of a right flank, saying, ‘No, Mr. President, you’re listening to the wrong people.’”  – Mark Morgan, former head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
🎯 IMPACT: The coalition’s efforts highlight an emerging division between the Trump administration and its America First base, as the White House focuses on foreign policy objectives such as defeating Iran, and concerns grow among the base of flagging interest in deporting illegal immigrants at scale.
📺 DETAIL: Led by figures like Mike Howell of the Oversight Project, the Mass Deportation Coalition includes GOP think tanks and advocacy groups, aiming for at least one million deportations annually. They argue that public support for strict immigration enforcement remains high, despite opposition from liberal activists and donors who exploit foreign labor.
📺 FLASHBACK: In early March, James Blair posted on social media that “Republicans want to keep deporting the violent/criminal illegals that Joe Biden & the Democrats in Congress let in,” and that “Republicans will get the violent criminals out”—signaling a shift away from 2024 election promises that all illegal immigrants would be deported, whether or not they have already been convicted of a crime, in favor of a much narrower definition of “mass” deportations.

Ken Paxton Investigates Lululemon for Toxic Chemicals in Clothes.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating Lululemon for potential health risks tied to “forever chemicals” in its athletic apparel, raising questions about the brand’s marketing and safety practices.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into Lululemon over the potential presence of PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals,” in its athletic apparel. The chemicals, which do not easily break down in nature, are linked to health risks such as endocrine disruption, infertility, and cancer, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
📰 DETAIL: Paxton’s investigation will focus on whether Lululemon’s testing protocols, supply chain practices, and restricted substances list comply with Texas safety standards. The probe comes amidst growing consumer concerns and research into the potential health risks of synthetic materials used in apparel. Lululemon, known for marketing to health-conscious customers, has not yet responded to requests for comment.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I will not allow any corporation to sell harmful, toxic materials to consumers at a premium price under the guise of wellness and sustainability. If Lululemon has violated Texas law, it will be held accountable.” – AG Ken Paxton.
🎯 IMPACT: The investigation could have significant consequences for Lululemon, which is already facing weak annual forecasts and shareholder disputes. The company’s stock has dropped nearly 22% this year, with shares marginally down at $163.59 following news of the probe. If violations are found, it could further erode consumer trust and financial stability.
👀 FLASHBACK: Earlier this year, Lululemon faced backlash over its “Get Low” workout collection, which was pulled from its website due to complaints the material was basically transparent.
