Honestly with Bari Weiss - The Free Press Live: Biden Drops Out
Tonight, President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race and endorsed Kamala Harris to be the Democratic nominee. After weeks of speculation, criticism of his candidacy, concern about his health, and withdrawal of donors, President Biden finally said: “It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, 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.”
What comes next? With the Democratic National Convention less than a month away, Michael Moynihan went live on X with Free Press contributors Walter Kirn, Batya Ungar-Sargon, Eli Lake, and Olivia Reingold, as well Minnesota congressman Dean Phillips (who challenged Joe Biden during the primaries), to discuss this historic turn and how it will impact the election.

Everything Everywhere Daily - A Brief History of Nothing
One of the most difficult concepts for early thinkers to get their heads around was the idea of nothing.
Everywhere we go, all our lives, there is something. There is air and matter that surrounds us everywhere because if there weren’t, we wouldn’t be here.
Eventually, scientists and philosophers became comfortable with the idea of nothing and were able to study it. What they found was that nothing was actually something.
Learn more about vacuums and how the concept of it was accepted and then eventually created and put to use on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

What A Day - Biden Exits The Race, Kamala Harris Races To Replace Him
President Joe Biden announced Sunday he is ending his re-election bid and is throwing his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic Party’s nominee in November. It’s the latest bombshell shakeup to this year’s presidential race. Biden said in a statement, “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.” In her own statement, Harris said she intends to “earn and win the nomination.” Within hours, a number of big-name Democrats endorsed Harris, though party leadership remained notably quiet on her candidacy as of late Sunday. California Democratic Congresswoman Barbara Lee talks about why she thinks it’s time for the party to unite around Harris, while Axios National Political Correspondent Alex Thompson explains what’s next for Harris to successfully campaign.

Short Wave - The Brain Makes A Lot Of Waste. Here’s How It Cleans Itself Up
Scientists have long studied the relationship between sleep and the brain, and why poor sleep is linked to neurological diseases like Alzheimer's. NPR science correspondent Jon Hamilton talks to host Regina G. Barber about the brain's washing system and the particular sound researchers have found that seems to turn it on in mice.

The Daily Signal - Security Expert: Trump Was ‘a Gust of Wind Away’ From Being Assassinated
Security expert Brian Cavanaugh says former President Donald Trump was “a gust of wind away” from being assassinated on July 13th.
“To have a round pierce your ear, which is attached to your head, we're talking less than two millimeters away,” says Cavanaugh, a senior vice president at American Global Strategies.
For a bullet to come so close to taking the former president’s life, Cavanaugh said it causes one to think Trump was saved through “divine intervention.”
Cavanaugh formerly served as executive director for Strategic Planning and Integration for the Department of Homeland Security’s Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office. During a conversation with “The Daily Signal Podcast” at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee last week, Cavanaugh assessed the security failures of the Secret Service following the attemp on the former president’s life during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, 33 miles north of Pittsburgh.
The building that the shooter targeted Trump from was about 150 yards away from the stage where Trump was speaking, according to Cavanaugh, who called it “absolutely baffling” that the building was not part of the Secret Service’s inner security perimeter.
Kimberly Cheatle, director of the Secret Service, will testify before the House Oversight Committee on Monday, amid calls for her resignation following the attempt on Trump’s life.
On today’s episode of “The Daily Signal Podcast,” Cavanaugh details what is known about the security breakdown at the rally and whether blame does fall on the head of the Secret Service for Trump’s near assassination.
