For his events, President Biden’s staffers prepare a short document with large print and photos that include his precise path to a podium, according to an event template the White House sends to staffers.

National Embarrassment: Biden Campaign to Stop Feeding Questions to Media After Being Exposed on Live Television

The Biden campaign has been forced to abandon its controversial practice of feeding pre-scripted questions to media outlets after a humiliating exposure on national television.
The Gateway Pundit reported that radio host Andrea Lawful-Sanders confirmed that the questions she asked to Joe Biden in a recent interview were provided by the White House ahead of time. This comes after Biden’s widely criticized debate performance.
Biden participated in two pre-recorded interviews post-debate; one with Wisconsin-based WAUK and another with Philly-based WURD. In both instances, Biden seemed to struggle with articulating his thoughts clearly. During the interview with WURD, Biden told Lawful-Sanders that he was proud to be the first black woman to serve with a black president.
“And by the way, I’m proud to be – as I’ve said – the first Vice President – first black woman to serve with a black president,” Biden said.
Following these interviews, Lawful-Sanders spoke with CNN’s Victor Blackwell about the process leading up to her conversation with Biden. When asked whether the questions she asked Biden were sent to her by the White House or if she had to submit them for approval beforehand, Lawful-Sanders responded: “The questions were sent to me for approval. I approved them.”
Upon further questioning by CNN, Lawful-Sanders confirmed that the White House did indeed send her the questions prior to the interview. Out of eight potential questions provided, she chose four that she felt were most appropriate for their discussion.
“If the White House is trying now to prove the vim, vigor, acuity of the President I don’t know how they do that by sending questions first before the interview so that the President knows what’s coming,” Blackwell said.’
In a similar revelation, Earl Ingram of CivicMedia told ABC News that he was provided a list of questions in advance of his interview with President Joe Biden this week. "Yes, I was given some questions for Biden," Ingram confirmed. He was given five questions and ended up asking four of them.
Following these disclosures, the Biden campaign will no longer feed media outlets questions for future interviews after being embarrassingly exposed on national television, as reported by the New York Post and ABC News.
“While interview hosts have always been free to ask whatever questions they please, moving forward we will refrain from offering suggested questions,” a source familiar with Biden’s booking operation for media outlets told The Post Saturday.
The Biden campaign later claimed it’s common to send interviewers suggested talking points.
“Hosts are always free to ask the questions they think will best inform their listeners,” Biden spokeswoman Lauren Hitt said in a statement.
‘Lioness’ Star Mike Heslin Dies Suddenly Aged 30 From Cardiac Arrest, Doctors ‘Have No Explanation’

Hollywood actor Mike Heslin has died suddenly at the mere age of 30.
Heslin, who had starred in the Amazon series Lioness and the film The Holiday Proposal Plan, had been hospitalized for a week before finally succuming to a heart attack last Tuesday.
His husband, James Wilson, confirmed his passing on social media, where he goes by the name Scotty Dynamo:
On July 2nd, my husband, best friend, and soulmate [Mike Heslin] passed away from an unexpected cardiac event after a week long battle in the hospital. Michael was young, in perfect health, and the doctors have no explanation for what happened.
Michael was brilliant, selfless, talented, and a real-life guardian angel. He single-handedly carried me through multiple rounds of cancer. He was the first person everyone would call to share good news with, and he was the perfect person to call if they needed a shoulder to lean on or the best advice. He truly was the sweetest, most caring, and loving man on earth, and he brought out the absolute best in everyone who had the pleasure to cross paths with him. He moved through life with such ease and confidence, and turned everyone around him into a better version of themselves. No matter how difficult things got, we knew that there was nothing we couldn’t overcome with Mike in our corner.
Michael, meeting you was the best thing to ever happen to me. You are my world. You are everything to me. When I felt you take your last breath, my heart shattered into a million pieces. If I had the power to trade places with you, I would do it in an instant. But I will take it one day at a time like you always told me to, and live every day in your honor.
Just a week ago, we were in the early stages of starting a family and would regularly share our favorite baby names for our future kids. You always told me that you felt like you were meant to be a dad, and I couldn’t agree more. You would be the world’s most perfect father. If I ever become a dad, I am going to name my son after you and hope that I manage to raise him to become at least half the man you are.

As well as starring in various films and TV shows, Heslin created and starred in the 2020 The Influencers, a scripted mockumentary avaliable on Prime Video.
Originally from California, he earned a BFA in Directing from the Boston Conservatory, according to his personal website.
