President Joe Biden should agree to interviews with “serious journalists” as he faces health concerns following a fumbling debate performance that has rocked his re-election effort, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said on Tuesday. Pelosi, an influential member of the Democratic Party, spoke to MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell as Biden’s team sought to reassure donors and supporters that the president remains a viable candidate against former President Donald Trump. “I think my recommendation is for him to have some interviews with serious journalists, you among them. Serious journalists, no-holds-barred, any question is fair, and just sit there and be Joe,” Pelosi suggested. “Show your values, show your knowledge, show your judgment, show your empathy for the American people,” Pelosi added. “I think that that would be a great thing for him. Not one, maybe two. A couple of those. I think that is essential.” A couple hours after Pelosi made the comments, ABC News announced that Biden would sit for his “first” post-debate TV interview on Friday. Anchor and former Clinton aide George Stephanopoulos is expected to lead the conversation. Many Democrats are panicking about the upcoming election and there is growing pressure on Biden to drop out, including from donors and at least one member of Congress, and give the party the chance to rally behind an alternative. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Post-debate polling from CBS News and YouGov found that 41% of Democratic registered voters and 72% of registered voters overall do not believe 81-year-old Biden has the mental and cognitive health to serve as president. Pelosi, who noted “this is not a normal election,” also said that she thinks it is a “legitimate question” to ask whether Biden’s poor debate performance was “an episode” or a “condition.” She added that Trump should face the same scrutiny. “It’s going to be up to Joe Biden to do what he thinks is — there’s no more patriotic person in our country than this President of the United States. Nobody less than the former president. Joe Biden — I trust his judgment,” she said later. Pelosi added, “I think that — again, I’m not a doctor. I can’t say what happens three, four years down the road. But I think that in my experience, which is what you asked me, I think that he will continue to be a great president.”

President Joe Biden is slated to sit down on Friday for his first TV interview since a shaky debate performance last week rocked the confidence many Democrats have in his effort to beat former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. ABC News announced on Tuesday that Biden will speak with “This Week” anchor George Stephanopoulos, who previously served as a communications director under former President Bill Clinton, one day after the July 4 holiday. The network said a “first look” will appear on the Friday edition of “World News Tonight with David Muir” — which airs at 6:30 p.m. ET — and portions of the interview will air on Saturday and Sunday on “Good Morning America.” Viewers will have to wait for Sunday’s broadcast of “This Week” on Sunday for the “extended” interview to air. It will be shown again on Monday’s episode of “Good Morning America,” ABC News added in a story posted on its website. Many Democrats are panicking about the election and there is growing pressure on Biden to drop out, including from donors and at least one member of Congress, and give the party the chance to rally behind an alternative nominee. Polling from CBS News and YouGov after Biden’s halting debate presentation found that 41% of Democratic registered voters and 72% of registered voters overall do not believe Biden has the mental and cognitive health to serve as president. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said during an appearance on MSNBC earlier on Tuesday that Biden should agree to interviews with “serious journalists” to tackle the crisis of confidence that he is facing within his party. “Show your values, show your knowledge, show your judgment, show your empathy for the American people,” Pelosi added. “I think that that would be a great thing for him. Not one, maybe two. A couple of those. I think that is essential.” News of the interview drew some mockery and skeptical reactions on social media. “To alleviate concerns about his mental capacity, Biden is going for a taped interview with a professional Democrat. Should clear things up! Sharp as a tack!” National Review Online editor Philip Klein quipped in a post to X. “Wise comms professional notes that aside from this Biden ‘interview’ being conducted by noted Dem operative George Stephanopoulos, it’s not even being aired live, so it can be edited, sliced, and diced to help Biden,” said The Federalist editor-in-chief Mollie Hemingway.

Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and personal lawyer to Donald Trump, has been disbarred by a Washington, D.C., disciplinary panel. The panel concluded that Giuliani’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election were both “frivolous” and “destructive,” marking a significant downfall for a once-prominent figure in American politics. The three-member panel, consisting of two attorneys and a public member, unanimously recommended disbarment after a thorough review of Giuliani’s conduct and a series of hearings that included testimony from Giuliani and his associates​​. I’m not surprised that I’ve been disbarred by a Bar Ass’n which is a politically and ideologically integral part of the Democrat one party corrupted court system for a long time. Judges, like Merchan and Engoron in NYC are selected by local Democrat bosses. These judges, just… — Rudy W. Giuliani (@RudyGiuliani) July 2, 2024 The disciplinary committee’s 38-page report was scathing, noting Giuliani’s lack of evidence for his fraud claims and highlighting the reckless nature of his accusations. “He claimed massive election fraud but had no evidence of it,” the panel wrote, emphasizing that Giuliani’s actions severely undermined the integrity of the legal system. The report also criticized Giuliani’s refusal to acknowledge any wrongdoing, further justifying the need for disbarment​. Giuliani’s legal troubles began in earnest following the 2020 election. In 2021, his law license was suspended in New York for making demonstrably false and misleading statements about the election results. This suspension was a precursor to the D.C. panel’s final recommendation, which is expected to be reviewed by the D.C. Court of Appeals for final approval​​. BREAKING: Rudolph Giuliani has been disbarred after a court found he repeatedly made false statements about Donald Trump's 2020 election loss. https://t.co/ntTEOavzNr — The Associated Press (@AP) July 2, 2024 The former mayor’s response to the decision has been defiant. Barry Kamins, one of Giuliani’s attorneys, expressed disappointment with the committee’s decision and indicated plans to file a vigorous appeal. Giuliani’s spokesperson, Ted Goodman, went further, accusing the D.C. Bar Association of being an arm of the “permanent regime in Washington” and part of a broader effort to deny Donald Trump effective legal counsel​​. Giuliani's career has been marked by dramatic highs and lows. He gained national prominence as the mayor of New York City during the 9/11 attacks and later served as a U.S. Attorney in Manhattan. However, his involvement in the 2020 election legal battles has overshadowed his previous accomplishments, leading to severe professional repercussions​. The decision to disbar Giuliani underscores the serious consequences for legal professionals who engage in unethical conduct. It also reflects the broader scrutiny and accountability measures applied to those who played roles in the efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Giuliani’s disbarment is part of a series of legal challenges he faces, including defamation lawsuits and ongoing investigations into his activities post-2020 election. This latest development further diminishes the once-formidable legal and political influence of “America’s Mayor”​. The post Rudy Giuliani Disbarred by D.C.
