Please tell me this is fake news

I’m freaking out




BREAKING NEWS: Multiples sources outline the apparent state of play on Biden at this time:

* plans to announce withdrawal from nomination as early as this weekend, with Sunday most likely

* Jon Meacham polishing up remarks

* Biden with NOT resign the presidency

* Biden will NOT endorse Harris

* open convention with Harris and about 3 others

* super delegates will not be allowed to vote on 1st ballot

* Harris is vetting at least four possible running mates, including Andy Beshear and possibly Shapiro


I’ve never heard of mark halperin or 2Way. I'm sick of all this “BREAKING” false news.

And the Biden campaign released a statement post-TCFspeech tonight, fwiw. There's a thread on it a few spots down from this one in Latest.

He works for Newsmax and Fox. He once worked at MSNBC but was fired over accusations of sexually harassing women.

FWIW: Biden just put out a statement that after watching Trump’s speech at the R.N.C. he is more determined than ever to beat Trump.

That totally confirms a Putin-led lie campaign.

Wikipedia

In response to more than a dozen allegations of workplace sexual harassment and sexual assault at his prior position at ABC News, Halperin was fired by both Showtime Networks and NBC News towards the end of October 2017.[3]

Since 2020, Halperin has appeared on Newsmax TV as a contributor and is the host of their weekly Sunday show, Mark Halperin's Focus Group.[4]
