White House and campaign aides to President Joe Biden reportedly found out he was ending his re-election bid on the social media platform X. A Democrat familiar with the situation told POLITICO, “We’re all finding out by tweet.” This person added, “None of us understand what’s happening.” Biden, 81, had publicly insisted that he would not be dropping out even as Democrats increasingly pressed him to step aside after his fumbling debate performance late last month spurred unease about his apparent decline and electability. Then, on Sunday, Biden announced that he would be stopping his 2024 campaign to focus on the remainder of his term and later said he was endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to become the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. Harris later said she intended to win the nomination. POLITICO noted a “sign of the abruptness” was that Biden’s campaign sent out a fundraising email for “Joe and Kamala” just eight minutes after Biden shared his decision to bow out. New York Times reporter Kenneth Vogel shared on X some information to “give a sense how much Biden’s decision took his campaign by surprise” on Sunday. “Campaign staff were still calling delegates 30 minutes before his announcement, pushing them to declare their support for Biden in the rollcall & on social media, according to one delegate,” he wrote in a post. Nick Koenig, the delegate who received the call 30 mins before the announcement, says a Biden staffer pushed them to commit to support Biden in the roll call vote & in posts on social media. They refused to commit. "It’s absolutely bonkers,” they said. https://t.co/soHxPjYey8 pic.twitter.com/8B73qu3M64 — Kenneth P. Vogel (@kenvogel) July 21, 2024 “Nick Koenig, the delegate who received the call 30 mins before the announcement, says a Biden staffer pushed them to commit to support Biden in the roll call vote & in posts on social media,” Vogel added. “They refused to commit. ‘It’s absolutely bonkers,’ they said.” Biden posted a letter to Americans to his personal account on X announcing that he was ending his 2024 re-election campaign. The post has been viewed more than 185 million times in the few hours since it was published. The New York Times reported Biden worked on the letter with his adviser Steve Ricchetti and chief strategist Mike Donilon from Saturday afternoon into the night. And, the newspaper’s story said, Biden did not tell most of his staff of his decision until a minute before the letter was posted to X. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP X — formerly Twitter — is owned by tech billionaire Elon Musk, who endorsed Donald Trump in the White House race after the former president survived an assassination attempt during a rally in Pennsylvania last weekend. The Wall Street Journal later reported Musk had committed to giving a new super PAC supporting Trump $45 million a month.

A pro-Trump super PAC just released an advertisement addressing President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the race, blasting presumptive nominee and current Vice President Kamala Harris for her covering up “Joe’s obvious mental decline.” The advertisement from Make America Great Again Inc. blasted Harris for her role in the Biden administration, criticizing the vice president for the ongoing crisis on the southern border and inflation, two issues that polls have found are top-of-mind for voters. “Kamala was in on it. She covered up Joe’s obvious mental decline,” the advertisement says before cutting to a clip of Kamala Harris claiming that “our president is in good shape and good health,” also calling him “tireless” and “vibrant.” “But Kamala knew Joe couldn’t do the job, so she did it. Look what she got done,” the advertisement continues before pointing to “a border invasion, runaway inflation,” and “the American dream: dead.” “They created this mess. They know Kamala owns this failed record,” the ad from the pro-Trump super PAC goes on to say about Harris, whom Biden has endorsed for the presidency. The advertisement came just moments after Biden announced in a statement posted to X that he would be backing out of the presidential race, saying, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Biden then released a separate post in which he endorsed Harris to be the Democratic Party’s nominee. “My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made,” Biden’s post reads. “Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year.” Meanwhile, former president Barack Obama released a statement of his own in which he celebrated Biden’s presidency while notably refraining from endorsing Harris to be the party’s nominee. The party’s nominee is expected to be decided at the Democratic National Convention, which begins on August 19th, though the party may opt for a virtual nomination process that would likely finish by August 7th, a measure that may be taken in order to ensure the Democratic nominee appears on every state’s ballot.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. challenged the Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Sunday to take a beat and refrain from simply “anointing” Vice President Kamala Harris as the new 2024 presidential candidate. Kennedy started out running his 2024 presidential campaign as a Democrat, but announced later — after effectively being shut out by the DNC — that he would be running as an independent. In a statement posted via X — after Biden announced he was dropping out of the race and endorsed Harris as his choice to replace him on the ticket — Kennedy argued that the DNC should give the choice back to the people. I commend President Biden for stepping down. His infirmities were evident to any unbiased observer from the beginning.

Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) July 21, 2024 “I commend President Biden for stepping down. His infirmities were evident to any unbiased observer from the beginning. It was this progressive deterioration — and his abandonment of Democratic Party principles — that prompted me to enter the race and ensure American voters had a viable, vigorous alternative to Donald Trump,” Kennedy began. He went on to explain that the same things that had driven him to leave the Democratic primary and run his campaign as an independent could make the voters feel the same distrust in the DNC as he had. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Yet the response of the DNC was to try and hide President Biden’s degeneration from the American public and disable democracy to ram him through to his party’s nomination,” he explained. “Many Americans fear that the same DNC elites are about to rig the nominating process again to get a monumentally unpopular vice president to step into President Biden’s shoes.” “I call on the Democratic Party to return to its traditional commitment to democracy and exemplify it with an open process,” Kennedy concluded, proposing a solution. “Instead of anointing a candidate hand-picked by DNC elites, the party should use neutral polling to identify the candidate who can best beat Donald Trump. The delegates should then select a nominee based on this information. If they had done this to begin with, I would not have had to leave the Democratic Party.”

Former President Bill Clinton and two-time presidential candidate Hillary Clinton endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president on Sunday after President Joe Biden announced that he was ending his presidential campaign after facing intense pressure from the media and his own party to do so. “We are honored to join the President in endorsing Vice President Harris and will do whatever we can to support her,” the Clintons said in a joint statement. “We’ve lived through many ups and downs, but nothing has made us more worried for our country than the threat posed by a second Trump term. He has promised to be a dictator on day one, and the recent ruling by his servile Supreme Court will only embolden him to further shred the Constitution.” “Now is the time to support Kamala Harris and fight with everything we’ve got to elect her,” they added. “America’s future depends on it.” Biden said that he was ending his campaign because it was in the best interest of the Democrat Party, but added that he intended to finish out the remainder of his term. Shortly after he suspended his campaign, he gave a full-throated endorsement of Harris, saying that selecting her to be his vice president was “the best decision I’ve made.” “Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year,” Biden said. “Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Harris accepted Biden’s endorsement, saying that she was “honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination.” She said that she was going to do “everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party-and unite our nation-to defeat Donald Trump and his extreme Project 2025 agenda,” even though Trump has nothing to do with Project 2025. “We have 107 days until Election Day,” she said. “Together, we will fight. And together, we will win.” Former President Barack Obama did not endorse Harris in a statement he released on Sunday where he called the situation that Democrats find themselves in “uncharted waters.” “I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges,” he said.

Reacting to the news that President Joe Biden would be dropping out of the 2024 presidential election, former President Donald Trump said that his rival had wanted to bow out ever since his disastrous debate performance last month. Biden announced on Sunday that he would no longer be seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, saying that he would be endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris. The announcement comes after weeks of pressure on Biden after he struggled during a debate against Trump on June 27. Earlier this week, Biden announced he had COVID and would not be going out on the campaign trail for a few days. “Does anybody really believe that Crooked Joe had Covid? No, he wanted to get out ever since June 27th, the night of The Debate, where he was completely obliterated,” Trump posted on Sunday afternoon. “That was the big moment in Joe Biden’s demise. That was the point in time when Joe was revealed for what he is, an incompetent man who should never have been President. Joe Biden is not fit to serve – He is destroying our Country!” During the debate, Biden frequently mumbled and lost track of what he was talking about. In the weeks following the debate, a growing list of lawmakers and Democratic strategists called for Biden to step aside as the legacy media started asking questions about the 81-year-old president’s mental and physical health. “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term,” Biden said on Sunday. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Trump, who has repeatedly said he could best any candidate put up by the Democrats, first reacted to the news by saying that Biden was the worst president in American history. “He has done everything possible to destroy our Country, from our Southern Border, to Energy Dominance, National Security, International Standing, and so much more,” he said. “He was annihilated in an Earth Shattering Debate, and now the Corrupt and Radical Democrats are throwing him overboard. He was not fit to serve from the very beginning, but the people around him lied to America about his Complete and Total Mental, Physical, and Cognitive Demise. Whoever the Left puts up now will just be more of the same.”

'... leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges'

A Pennsylvania man and his friend drive to Hocking Hills State Park, Ohio. They encounter and experience a few odd moments while hiking a trail."To whom it may concern. I am writing this to you to add it to your many varied collections of the paranormal and odd phenomena reported daily.I am a 29-year-old male from Pennsylvania and I have read through several stories on your site. I thought I would share with you and your readers one of the many strange things I have personally experienced, and like other people, I would like to know if they too had this type of experience; in September 2008 my best friend Ciera (pronounced Sierra) and I went to a park named Hocking Hills in Ohio for a day retreat from our busy lives. She and I had decided on this at random when we first got together early in the morning just after sunrise; it was a nice warm late summer day and we'd just decided to make a full-day drive and hike out of it. Hocking Hills is well known for its several walking trails, a cave or two, and several waterfalls and running water/creek areas. The day was very warm, and sunny, with hardly a cloud overhead, and very nice.We started a walk at random and found that one of the trails had been washed out so we had to take another path which forced us to cross a road; on the other side was a tall fire lookout ranger's station which doubled as a Fire Tower. We had seen a lot of people out walking with us that day and a few hikers/backpackers had passed us by on their treks up until that point. We played with our phones a bit on the way to show each other some pictures we had taken a few days before on a different outing and noted it was roughly after 12 noon when we came out of the woods and walked across the road; it was then that we noticed there was caution tape all over the fire tower, there was a pungent smell in the air which we could not identify, the windows on top of the tower appeared to be taped up, grimy, and there were flies all over the area. We walked past it, commenting on how odd it was, and continued down a seemingly new trail we hadn't seen on a previous walk in the area. The trail took us past the fire tower and then cut into the woodlands; as we walked into the forest we took notice that no one seemed to be around. In fact not only did we feel isolated from others but we felt very chilled without explanation. That day had been very warm as we both wore very cool clothing and when we entered the forest it began to feel very cool, much cooler than we expected and we both were shivering as we felt the temperature drop.As we continued down the way my friend pointed out that it was getting darker than either of us should have expected or seemed to be - we looked around and there was nothing but trees on all sides, there should have been a forest edge somewhere as the area wasn't really that big but aside from some hills and tall pine trees there wasn't a real 'ending' to the woods like we expected as the area tends to be narrow and normally you can see the edges. She took out her phone to use her GPS because she instinctively felt lost but her battery was nearly gone, I took mine out and it had no signal, the battery was also near dead, and showed "EE:EE" for the time (meaning it couldn't update as it was an older style flip-phone with a camera and when set to auto-adjust would contact the mobile phone network every 15 min).It was only then as the light grew dimmer as we continued on our way that I noticed it was very silent suddenly. Our footsteps echoed, the leaves, grass, twigs, and our breathing just echoed. Ciera got spooked and I did too, she mentioned it was very out of the ordinary. I agreed but I couldn't shake this sense of foreboding that something was amiss. I tried to rationalize it but I really, honestly, couldn't figure any of it out at all.We continued forward going down a small hill on the trail and back up when it got darker. The world seemed to have gone from shadowy to near-twilight darkness. My friend grabbed my arm and started freaking out about how weird it got - then the air grew chillier, and had a feeling of something was wrong. We both took off running looking for an exit, for some odd reason we never thought to turn around at all as we ran we could hear our steps echo off the area as things just felt like they grew more gloomy.Then ahead of us down a small hill and back up the other side we could see two large bushes on either side of the trail like a gate. We made a mad dash for the bushes and just as we pushed through the plants something odd happened - we were nearly blinded by light as sound and warmth returned all at once. It was like stepping outside of a cold, empty, and dark building onto a warm busy street. We stood at the edge of a place known as Old Mans Cave which has a large waterfall and a U-shaped cliff where you can look down into where the water and people gather. We turned around and the bushes were the same but the area was different, brighter, not silent for sure, and warm. In fact, our skin was cold to touch which just reinforced the facts. We took out our phones and the time had finally updated, it was now 4pm. The normal trail would only have taken an hour to walk fully so it was a loss of three full hours!Logic attempted to set in and we decided the trail we came up with must have just appeared creepy because there may have been clouds overhead or a storm blew by but when we went back between the bushes there was no trail. Nothing looked like it had a few seconds ago. Ciera walked around the bushes twice and it was the same bright sunny day with no darkness and no trail. We waited, it was blue sky overhead and we could see the edges of the forest and other people. The trail had simply vanished as if we had never walked it.On returning past the trail where the fire tower was located, we noticed it was normal looking and there was a blond-haired young lady with her hair in a ponytail climbing the steps, the windows were not taped and very clean, and no pungent smell. We don't know what it was, but it certainly was creepy. Of course, I jokingly told her later that day over dinner we had entered the faerie realms by mistake and were lucky to get away, she didn't find that funny of course but either way we felt we should share this with you and if anyone out there has had a similar experience perhaps they can provide insight.Thanks again, D"Hiding in the Mirror: The Quest for Alternate Realities, from Plato to String Theory (by way of Alicein Wonderland, Einstein, and The Twilight Zone)The Hidden Reality: Parallel Universes and the Deep Laws of the Cosmos (Vintage)Parallel Worlds: A Journey Through Creation, Higher Dimensions, and the Future of the Cosmos**********POLL: WHAT DO YOU THINK?

The Maryland Goatman is described as a hybrid creature; part man and part goat. According to those who claim to have seen it, the legs and feet resemble that of a goat, the upper body of a man with a horned head, and a body partially covered by fur. A height is generally described as 7-8 feet and a weight at 300-350 pounds. Below are a few of the documented sightings:June 1963 - Huntington, MD - A young couple was walking on Zug Road when they observed a peculiar creature staring at them from the edge of the woods. The woman described it as a "tall, ragged animal with human-like features."April 1971 - Huntington, MD - A farmer near Fletchertown Road reported seeing a large, man-like creature eating the remains of a pig. When the farmer approached the scene, the creature ran off.September 1976 - Woodmore, MD - A landscaper at the Woodmore Country Club finds unidentified remains on the golf course, near Lottsford Road. While attempting to dispose of them, he hears a low growl. He looks up and observes a large, unknown animal.October 1985 - Glenn Dale, MD - Police respond to a report of teenagers making noise at the old Glenn Dale Hospital site. While investigating, the officer hears unknown sounds but is unable to locate the source.August 1990 - Hyattsville, MD - During a birthday party at McGruder Park, a boy runs into the woods after a ball. Moments later, he screams. When adults arrive, they find him visibly shaken. The boy tells his mother, “It was the dark thing with the red eyes who stands in the corner of my room at night.”May 1998 - Bowie, MD - A group of teenagers are hanging out near a local bridge when they notice something moving in the weeds nearby. Two of the teens go to investigate and describe seeing a tall, human-like animal running into the forest.July 2007 - Glenarden, MD - A camera crew for WRC-TV (Washington, DC) is on location to cover a local golf tournament when they notice a strange animal moving in the trees nearby. The cameraman manages to capture a few seconds of video before the animal disappears.It is often associated with several locations throughout Prince George’s County, MD (listed above) including Glenn Dale Hospital, the former site of a state tuberculosis sanatorium. It is reported to have attacked and possibly killed several witnesses. It had also been connected to damaged property and the deaths of several family pets.The Piscataway native people believed a magical creature in the same area in Maryland could shape-shift into various animal forms. This was noted and written in 1666 by a Jesuit priest, in which the illustration of a Bigfoot-like creature standing on two legs appeared in the document.The sightings began in 1957 when a young couple were parked alone on a lonely country road (Zug Road) when they suddenly heard something banging on the hood of their car. Looking up they were startled to see a goat-like humanoid staring at them, waving what looked like an axe. The creature instantly turned and dashed into the surrounding woods. There were several more rumored sightings over the years.Then in the Summer of 1962, the Goatman was accused of killing fourteen people, including twelve children and two accompanying adults, who had been hiking too close to its apparent lair. The survivors, who, not surprisingly, remained anonymous, claimed that the Goatman violently hacked its victims with an axe while uttering horrid screams. According to the account, when the local authorities arrived on the scene all that was left in the carnage were half-eaten limbs and a bloody trail leading to an ominous-looking cave. BTW, the Prince Georges County and Maryland State Police have no written record of this incident. It was obviously a ruse and urban legend.Then in 1970, a woman heard her pet dog barking wildly outside, peering through a window she saw the shadowy figure of the creature moving about where the dog was tied up. Being too afraid to go outside in the dark she decided to remain in the house. The next morning she discovered that the dog had been decapitated.In the November 10, 1971 edition of the Prince George’s County News the headline on the front page declared “Residents Fear Goatman Lives: Dog Found Decapitated in Old Bowie” with a photo of the remains of the mutilated pet. The canine belonged to April Edwards and had disappeared after she and friends had reported hearing strange noises in their yard on the night of November 3, 1971. When they went to investigate they saw a large creature moving in the dark. The article also stated that reports of an “animal-like creature that walks on its hind legs” had been seen by other residents in the area.The Prince George’s County News coverage of the Goatman ended with one last front-page story on November 24, 1971. It focused on Mrs. Evelyn Johnson, who lived on Fletchertown Road and mentioned the trouble and harassment she and other neighbors received from Goatman hunters. This included an incident where the road was blocked off by two cars and one truckload of people who claimed they had the creature trapped. Mrs. Johnson had to call the police to drive home.So what are the actual origins of the Maryland Goatman? Some reports involve escaped mental patients and others satanic rituals...but the most popular legend is that the Goatman is the unfortunate result of an experiment involving one Dr. Stephen Fletcher that went horribly wrong at his U.S. Department of Agriculture laboratory in Beltsville. The doctor confessed to creating the Goatman by crossing the DNA of a goat and his assistant William Lottsford, but the experiment went terribly awry and the result was a genetic nightmare. It's obviously a manufactured tale, but many people claim that this scenario is valid.Many of these Goatman sightings and reports closely correlate to Bigfoot sightings that have been reported in the same general area of Maryland for generations, including the numerous property attacks by the Sykesville Monster in the early 1970s. Bigfoot-related sightings continue throughout Maryland and the surrounding states. In my opinion, the Goatman is simply an urban legend though, a Bigfoot or any other cryptid hominid with an axe would be a life-altering event.Sources:americanmonsters.comunknown-creatures.comphantomsandmonsters.comgoatmanhollow.comnbcwashington.comcryptidz.wikia.comMonsters of Maryland: Mysterious Creatures in the Old Line StateThe Weiser Field Guide to Cryptozoology: Werewolves, Dragons, Skyfish, Lizard Men, and Other Fascinating Creatures Real and MysteriousChimeras, Hybrids, and Interspecies Research: Politics and PolicymakingGenetic Turning Points: The Ethics of Human Genetic Intervention (Critical Issues in Bioethics)**********POLL: WHAT DO YOU THINK?

President Joe Biden’s late decision not to seek reelection has scrambled both the media’s Sunday plans and collective brains. In the wake of the expected but nonetheless surprising news, the galaxy-brain takes are flying. Watch as former U.S. Senator for Missouri and MSNBC contributor “Air” Claire McCaskill drops a head-scratcher in the immediate aftermath of Biden’s announcement: that Biden had no one hoping for some other candidate. https://www.mrctv.org/node/588605 JEN PSAKI: Claire, let me ask you, you know President Biden well. What- we’re going to spend some time, as I think we ought, as I think everybody should over the next couple months talking about his legacy. What do you hope people remember and talk about him in terms of his time as president? CLAIRE MCCASKILL:  You know, I think it’s really important. We are so polarized in this country right now. I think it’s really important to remember how effective he was at marshaling a team, first of all. He doesn't have anybody in his cabinet that’s not- that wasn't endorsing him. He doesn't have a vice president that isn't gonna be at his convention. He doesn't have, you know, loads of people saying, “oh, I wish it were someone else” behind the scenes. Um, you know, it really is that he- that he was going to bring people together. And that he was gonna restore dignity. And normalcy to the Oval Office.  Wait, are we in the Twilight Zone? Did we not arrive at this historical juncture PRECISELY BECAUSE there were “loads of people saying, ‘oh, I wish it were somewhere else’”? Do vast majorities of the American population and even Democrats not count as “loads of people”?  The same media that gaslit the American public over Joe Biden’s mental fitness to execute the office of the presidency and abetted the DNC’s suppression of the 2024 primary, which would’ve flushed Biden’s deficiencies out a lot sooner than the June 27th debate, are now going to attempt to gaslight the American public into believing that this is “democracy”. Proof evident of that is a former United States Senator appearing on MSNBC air and saying that no one clamored for someone other than Biden to be the 2024 Democrat candidate.
