many of them, just like here in nashville, gathering outside of the stadium to listen to the taylor swift because heir not ready to they re not ready to shake it off. but new jersey state police posting this warning on instagram yes, they have an instagram that they would only allow people with tickets into the surrounding parking lots saying, quote, sorry, swifties, no ticket, no taylor-gating. perhaps swift fans are asking why you gotta be so mean. [laughter] well, we might have the answer here, and i m going to start with griff jenkins [laughter] because, you know, if you were going to do some taylor-gating because you might because you love her and your family loves her, but they re not just going to let you in because, you know, you re a fan. they should. and people keep telling me, tammy, you should calm down, by but i won t, okay? because this feels like a death by a thousand cuts. i gotta tell ya [laughter] this right here is just a blank space. and me g
presidential campaign sure was good while it lasted, and now he s getting buried a couple of months before he even announces. so trump turbo-charged by his indictment in the stormy daniels case has been rising in the polls, and desantis has been sinking. i ve argued for many weeks now against my guests that desantis needed to respond to trump s assaults rather than largely ignore him because he s busy with the florida legislature. now that s becoming the media s conventional wisdom. throw in the journalists who say ron desantis lacks charisma, and you have a whole new landscape at least for this week. i m howard kurtz and this is mediabuzz. howard: when it comes to ron desantis taking knack over his war on disney flak over his war on disney, it comes from the left and the right. governor desantis is trying to stop bleeding on what s left of his unofficial presidential campaign. it s going to start to wilt a little bit. you just see he s got no answers, he s got no
open to an alternative in 204 with 14% saying they d support kennedy for the democratic nomination while a new harris poll finds that 63% of voters think the president would not be able to finish a second term if he was reelected and that vice president kamala harris would wind up taking over at some point. let s bring in wall street journal columnists dan henninger and kim strassel. so, dan, what do you think of joe biden s decision to run for a second term? i think that if in terms of the good of the country, it s a big mistake. for sure. in terms of joe biden s apparently boundless ambitions, if he thinks donald trump is going to be the opposition, he believes he can beat trump. paul: you think that s the main motivation for biden at this stage, beat trump? well, no. i think the main motivation is he likes to be president [laughter] paul: okay. air force one, all the rest of it.

coronavirus overtaking wuhan, china. what do we do? oh, you know who we could ask? the wuhan novel respiratory coronavirus lab. the disease [laughter] is the same name as the lab are. [laughter] that s just, that s just a little too weird, don t you think? howard: here s i stewart on his apple f the show reflecting on the backlash. i thought it was a pretty good can bit that expressed kind of how i felt. and the two things that came out of it were i m racist against asian people and how dare i align myselfs with the alt-right. howard: unreal. i bring this up, of course, because parts of the biden administration now believe the kid thely virus did originate from that wuhan lap lab. we don t know for sure, but the media and social media played a key role in stifling any debate. i m howard kurtz and this is mediabuzz. howard: ahead, brian kilmeade on his interview with ron desantis and the house investigating george santos. one politician who got beat up pretty badly
about the southern accent, can we just a little less there? true story. see, now, i m wondering, sara, if this really is it maybe still about the division between the north and the south? and what we think of southerners, who i believe make up the bulk of people who join our military and serve this nation. yes. or is it about wanting everyone to have kind of a universal sound to hem? is this am i looking too much into this or is it no, i think it s point one, i don t thinkst the about having a universal sound. my father was from alabama, my mother was from cuba suddenly coming out a little bit. i m going to throw that out there just a a little, but i remember going to my grandma s house this coleman county on the farm, and she would say y all come back now, ya hear? and i think a lot of it has to do with kind of this prejudice against southern people, this idea that all southern people are a certain way. or, you know, and you talked about the military.
