Trump Fundraising Committee Teases First Event With Vice Presidential Pick at GOP Convention
A joint fundraising committee affiliated with Donald Trump’s presidential campaign teased the first events featuring his eventual running mate during the Republican National Convention this month.
The Trump 47 committee is holding at least two fundraisers with the yet-to-be-unveiled Republican vice presidential candidate, according to copies of the invitations.
The first fundraiser, called the “Strength in Unity Reception“, will be held on July 17, where Trump’s VP pick will be in attendance.

The second fundraiser, “The Freedom First Event,” will be held the next day, before Trump formally accepts the presidential nomination.
The fundraising invitations suggest Trump will announce his running mate in the days just before July 17, the day of the first fundraiser.
The Republican convention is slated to begin on July 15 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
There has been much speculation about Trump’s possible vice presidential candidate in recent weeks.
Some possible candidates include former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, Gov. Doug Burgum (R-N.D.), Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Tim Scott (R-S.C.), and J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), and Reps. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) and former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn.
Trump said last month that he had selected his running mate, but had yet to tell them.
Parkinson’s Specialist Met With White House At Least 9 Times Since July 2023
A Parkinson’s disease specialist from Walter Reed Medical Center visited the White House at least nine times in the past year, according to journalist Alex Berenson of Unreported Truths, while the NY Post has reported that a cardiologist was present during one of the visits.
Dr. Kevin R Cannard traveled to the White House’s medical clinic each time, meeting with either President Joe Biden’s personal physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor, or a naval nurse who coordinates care for the president and other senior officials. O’Connor notably gave Biden a clean bill of health after his February annual physical.
The visits spanned July 28, 2023 with the latest being March 28 of this year. That said, Berenson notes that the most recent logs are from April 1, so it’s unknown if Cannard has visited more recently.
According to Cannard’s physician profile page, he is a “neurologist and movement disorders specialist at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center” who specializes in treatments for “early Parkinson’s disease.” Since 2012, he has served as the “neurology specialist supporting the White House Medical Unit,” per his LinkedIn page.
His most recent paper was published in August 2023 in the journal Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, and focuses on the “early-stage” of the crippling disease.
Since Biden’s health is O’Connor’s primary responsibility, it is highly probable the meeting was about the commander in chief, according to Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Tx), the doctor for both Presidents Obama and Trump.
“It’s highly likely they were talking about Biden,” Jackson told The Post. -NY Post
“He should only be [regularly] treating the president and the first family,” Jackson continued.
Walter Reed cardiologist Dr. John. E. Atwood was also present during a Jan. 17 meeting, the NY Post reports.
According to Jackson, who has never treated Biden, O’Connor and Biden’s family are trying to “cover up” Biden’s declining cognitive health.
Ya think?
“I believe he and Jill Biden have led the cover up. Kevin O’Connor is like a son to Jill Biden — she loves him. It’s crazy. Kevin O’Connor was in that job on day one of the Biden administration because they knew they could trust Kevin to say and do anything that needed to be said or done and cover up whatever needed to be covered up. He is part of the Biden family,” said Jackson, who has warned about Biden’s cognitive decline for years.
Trump Mocks Biden, Encourages Him to Stay in Race Amid Democrat Calls to Drop Out
Former President Donald Trump on Saturday mocked Joe Biden’s debate performance and encouraged him to remain in the presidential race despite widespread calls by his colleagues and the media to drop out.
“Crooked Joe Biden should ignore his many critics and move forward, with alacrity and strength, with his powerful and far reaching campaign,” Trump said in a statement posted on Truth Social.
“He should be sharp, precise, and energetic, just like he was in The Debate, in selling his policies of Open Borders (where millions of people, including record numbers of Terrorists, are allowed to enter our Country, from prisons and mental institutions, totally unchecked and unvetted!), to Ending Social Security, Men playing in Women’s sports, High Taxes, High Interest Rates, encouraging a Woke Military, Uncontrollable Inflation, Record Setting Crime, Only Electric Vehicles, Subservience to China and other Countries, Endless Wars, putting America Last, losing our Dollar Based Standard, and so much more.”
“Yes, Sleepy Joe should continue his campaign of American Destruction and, MAKE CHINA GREAT AGAIN!” he added.
A number of Democrat donors and five House Democrats have publicly called on Biden to bow out of the presidential race after his disastrous debate last week.
But Biden has been adamant about remaining in the race on the advice of his wife Jill Biden and his son Hunter Biden.
Biden said in an ABC interview Friday, “if the Lord Almighty came down and said, ‘Joe, get out of the race,’ I’d get out of the race. The Lord Almighty’s not comin’ down.”
He reiterated his declaration Friday in a statement on X, saying, “Let me say this as clearly as I can: I’m the sitting President of the United States. I’m the nominee of the Democratic party. I’m staying in the race.”

CNN’s Van Jones: Biden Seemed ‘Detached from Reality’ During ABC Interview
CNN political commentator Van Jones said Joe Biden seemed “detached from reality” during his ABC News interview with host George Stephanopoulos on Friday.
“Look, the presidency, it turns out, is a speaking role. It’s a speaking role. You’ve gotta be able to talk. You got to be able to do interviews. You got to be able to give speeches. You gotta be able to debate. It’s a speaking role,” Van Jones said in response to Biden’s interview.
“They got to be able to make decisions behind closed doors. But that’s that’s the presidency is a special role. It’s a speaking role. I thought today you saw more of the Biden that you could feel some confidence in because it’s just the typical a little soft, a little stumbling, mumbling, but nothing alarming, nothing that would panic.”
He added, “The problem is when the biggest night at a campaign that guy was not on the stage. So I do think that today he did better. I do think over time that is useful. The problem that you have is that the stuff that he said about the campaign is just not factual. What you love about Biden in general is that big heart and he cares but you don’t want somebody who’s detached from reality.”
Van Jones then noted that Biden’s remark that the 2024 presidential race is still a toss-up seemed “detached from reality.”
“You have to acknowledge some of the reality. I think the problem that you have, the panic happening in the party, is people think this guy has detached from reality, he has a guard of people around him. They won’t tell him the truth and he just being stubborn.”
Indeed, five House Democrats so far have called on Biden to drop out of the 2024 race this week.
And Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) is also reportedly attempting to assemble a group of Democratic senators to ask Biden to exit the presidential race.
Some key House and Senate Democrats are planning meetings next week, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) expected to convene a virtual meeting with Democratic committee ranking members on Sunday to discuss Biden’s path forward.
5 House Democrats Have Called On Biden To Step Down
So far, five House Democrats have called on Joe Biden to step out of the 2024 presidential race since his disastrous debate last week.
The latest was Rep. Angie Craig (D-Minn.), who on Saturday called for Biden to step out of the 2024 race in a statement posted to X following his interview with CBS News that aired Friday.
“I have great respect for President Biden’s decades of service to our nation and his steadfast commitment to making our country a better place,” Craig said in the statement.
As an elected leader, I feel a responsibility to be honest about what I believe, even when it’s hard to hear.
— Angie Craig (@AngieCraigMN) July 6, 2024
President Biden is a good man & I appreciate his lifetime of service.
But I believe he should step aside for the next generation of leadership.
The stakes are too… pic.twitter.com/rtZLz6riDp
“However, given what I saw and heard from the President during last week’s debate in Atlanta, coupled with the lack of a forceful response from the President himself following that debate, I do not believe that the President can effectively campaign and win against [former President] Donald Trump,” Craig said later.
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-N.Y.) likewise called for Biden to bow out of the race on Friday in an interview with MSNBC.
“I would say, Mr. President, your legacy is set. We owe you the greatest debt of gratitude. The only thing that you can do now to cement that for all time and prevent utter catastrophe is to step down and let someone else do this,” he said.

Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) on Wednesday told the New York Times that the presidential debate presented an “opportunity to look elsewhere.”
“What he needs to do is shoulder the responsibility for keeping that seat — and part of that responsibility is to get out of this race,” said Grijalva.
Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) piled on Thursday, telling a local radio affiliate that Biden should “step aside to let new leaders rise up and run against Donald Trump.”
Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas) was the first House Democrat to call for Biden to leave the race on Tuesday.
“Too much is at stake to risk a Trump victory — too great a risk to assume that what could not be turned around in a year, was not turned around in the debate, can be turned around now,” Doggett said in a statement. “President Biden saved our democracy by delivering us from Trump in 2020. He must not deliver us to Trump in 2024.”
But it’s not just House Democrats who want Biden out.
Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) is reportedly attempting to assemble a group of Democratic senators to ask Biden to exit the presidential race.
Biden defiantly reaffirmed his commitment to remain in the race during his interview with CBS anchor George Stephanopoulos despite growing objections from media outlets, pundits and Democrat lawmakers.

How many more Democrats will it take to call for Biden to drop out before the Biden campaign accepts that the party wants him gone?
