In an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Nancy Pelosi, former speaker of the House of Representatives and a major figure in the Democratic Party, said she hadn’t spoken to the president since he withdrew from the presidential race last month.
She described her current relationship with Biden, or lack thereof, on CNN.
Nancy Pelosi was evasive in her comments, it seems that Joe Biden didn’t appreciate Pelosi’s pressure to push him out of the race.
Since then, it seems they still have not talked…
Getty ImagesAccording to several sources, Pelosi privately confided to Biden that the polls suggested he wouldn’t be able to beat Trump following his disastrous CNN debate performance, and that continuing his campaign could jeopardize the Democrats’ chances of winning back the House of Representatives and the White House.
This statement would have plunged Joe Biden into a defensive and aloof attitude.

…will Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden ever speak to each other again?
Before dropping out of the presidential race, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the controversial independent candidate, admitted to being the person responsible for a strange and macabre event involving a dead teddy bear in Central Park that had perplexed many and whose mystery has now persisted for ten years.
In a video posted on X, RFK Jr. is seen chatting with Roseanne Barr…
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recounts a 2014 event in which he claims to have placed a dead bear cub in Central Park, simulating an accident in which the animal was hit by a bicycle.
RFK Jr. explained that he got his hands on his grisly prey while driving in New York’s Hudson Valley, when a woman behind him accidentally shot the bear.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claimed that his decision to take the animal’s carcass in the first place was due to his desire to make the best of the situation and butcher it, later storing the meat in his refrigerator.

However, RFK Jr. explains that his busy schedule that day forced him to change his plans. He eventually decided to abandon the bear cub in Central Park, claiming that the animal had been hit by a bicycle.

He also claims that the idea came to him after a series of bicycle accidents in New York, and that he had an old bike in his car, which he used to stage what he considers the perfect fake accident.

RFK Jr. reports that he was surprised by the media interest generated the day after the gruesome incident, when a dog-walker discovered the teddy bear. The case was broadcast by major news channels and investigated by the Department of Environmental Conservation as well as law enforcement.

JFK Jr. expressed concern about leaving fingerprints at the scene and was relieved to see the story finally fade from public view… until he confessed!
We have so many questions since that moment, but right now, as RFK Jr. dropped out to join Trum’s campaign, the main one is: Will voters really get past RFK Jr’s dead bear in Central Park story?
A tragic accident occurred in the southern suburbs of Brazil, when a plane operated by VoePass Airlines crashed into a residential area. The tragic flight, carrying 62 people, including 58 passengers, and four crew members, was en route from Sao Paulo to Guarulhos International Airport.
The cause of the accident has not yet been confirmed.
The plane hit several houses and caught fire on impact. GloboNews, a Brazilian TV channel, broadcast shocking images of the accident, showing a vast area in flames and thick smoke billowing from what appeared to be the fuselage.
Other images show the plane spiraling downwards vertically before crashing.

The U.S. Supreme Court has decided not to grant former President Donald Trump and Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey a stay of conviction for Trump in the Stormy Daniels bribery case in New York.
#SCOTUS declined to halt Donald Trump's upcoming sentencing for his conviction in state court in New York on felony charges involving hush money paid to a porn star and a related gag order until after the Nov. 5 election https://t.co/nMp0f645FSpic.twitter.com/fdhQdmZ21g
As a result, Donald Trump will receive his sentence on September 18, a major blow for him as he will learn his fate two months before the presidential elections.

Trump and Bailey were not only seeking to postpone the sentence, but also to overturn the restrictive measures of the gag order imposed by the State of New York. Currently, the ex-president is not allowed to criticize New York court members, their families or former jury members, at least until after the election, given the high electoral tensions.
This measure is intended to protect those directly involved in the trial, as well as their loved ones.

Bailey argued that Trump’s conviction, along with the gag order, could prevent him from campaigning in Missouri, depriving Missouri voters of vital information for the upcoming election.

Last May, Trump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up an attempt to interfere in the 2016 election, which included bribe payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

All eyes will certainly be on New York on September 18, when Trump will be sentenced.
Taylor Swift’s much-anticipated concerts in Vienna, scheduled for next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, have been cancelled following the arrest of two suspected terrorists, accused of planning an attack.
JUST IN: Security measures have been increased for Taylor Swift's concerts in Vienna, Austria, this week after two suspects were arrested for allegedly plotting a terror attack, authorities said. https://t.co/hV0vR7Oimmpic.twitter.com/XYiJvrY3P7
Austrian authorities announced that they wished to take extensive security measures to protect concert-goers at this weekend’s concerts, following confirmation of the arrest of a 19-year-old Austrian man and another man on Wednesday, but Swift’s team ultimately confirmed the cancellation of the concerts.

In early July, a 19-year-old Austrian was reported to have pledged allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State.
Taylor Swift’s three concerts, scheduled for August 8-10 at Vienna’s Ernst-Happel-Stadion as part of her Eras Tour, were designated as the main target of the suspected terrorists for the planned attack.

The arrest reportedly led to the disturbing discovery of various substances and chemicals suspected by the authorities of being used to make bombs.

Kamala Harris has chosen her running mate for the presidential election.
It is Tim Walz, governor of the state of Minnesota, CNN reports.

It’s a choice that’s as judicious as it is cautious, since several potentially explosive elements surrounded the other finalist, Josh Shapiro, another excellent potential choice, however, and a rising star within the Democratic party.
The Democratic ticket is therefore complete for the election, and Kamala Harris is now well poised to take on Donald Trump and his own running mate, JD Vance.
