Summary

Megyn Kelly opens the show by discussing the Democrats’ ongoing meltdown and panic over Biden’s debate debacle, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s history of lying and cover-ups, the media suddenly getting mad after years of lies, whether former President Obama is trying to push Biden out behind the scenes, and more. Then Ric Grenell, former acting DNI Director, joins to discuss whether Biden's "big boy" press conference could make or break his candidacy and presidency, Biden’s obvious cognitive decline that the media ignored for so long, defenders arguing criticizing Biden is “ageist and ableist,” if Barack Obama is working behind the scenes to push Biden aside as nominee, how Morning Joe is teasing the way Obama may have orchestrated the George Clooney op-ed, Ezra Klein admitting some on the left don't really believe what they say that Trump is an existential threat to democracy, corporate media shockingly turning on Biden, how journalists have abandoned their duty to be skeptical of power, and more. Then longtime journalist Bill Sammon joins to discuss the historic past two weeks, the calculus Biden is weighing about his political future, what the Democratic party might do moving forward, the stakes in this election, and more.
