Are young Americans being groomed by fundamentalists?
(NewsNation) — Young Americans are being radicalized over the internet to support a variety of left-leaning causes and, in some cases, acting with violence in the U.S., Chris Cuomo says. 'Fundamentalism, that's what knits it all together,' he says.
Joining him to discuss the issue are Tracy Walder, a NewsNation national security contributor, and counterterrorism analyst Aaron Cohen.

Ex-WH press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claims she's no longer a Democrat in teasing memoir of ‘broken' Biden admin
WASHINGTON — Joe Biden's longtime White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced Wednesday that she has left the Democratic Party and is writing a tell-all book about the 'broken' administration she served. Jean-Pierre, 50, worked as Biden's top spokeswoman for two years and eight months and stunned fellow White House alums by announcing the looming release of 'Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines' due out on Oct. 21. 3 Karine Jean-Pierre repeatedly denied Joe Biden was cognitively impaired while she was the White House spokeswoman. Getty Images 'Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an Independent lightly,' Hachette Book Group says in a promotional release, which hints that she may focus her ire on figures aside from Biden in the account. 'She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden… She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision,' the tease goes. 3 Jean-Pierre is attempting to sell her book— in which she urges Americans to be independents. AP 'In a hard-hitting yet hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, why it can be worthwhile to carve a political space more loyal to personal beliefs than a party affiliation, and what questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically.' 3 KJP stunned Democrats by announcing she left the party. AP Biden stood by Jean-Pierre amid criticism by detractors and rivals inside the administration who viewed her as ineloquent and often unprepared. 'I think we need to stop thinking in boxes and think outside of our boxes, and not be so partisan,' Jean-Pierre said in an Instagram post Wednesday, '… this book 'Independent', it's about looking outside of boxes, not just always being in a partisan stance.'

French Open: Coco Gauff will face a Frenchwoman ranked 361st in the semifinals
PARIS (AP) — That No. 2 seed Coco Gauff reached Thursday's French Open semifinals should surprise no one. Her 361st-ranked opponent for a berth in the title match? That's a whole other story. Gauff made it to the final four at Roland-Garros for the third time, getting past No. 7 Madison Keys 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-1 on Wednesday in a quarterfinal between two Americans who both have won a major title. Next up for 2023 U.S. Open champion Gauff? A matchup against French wild-card entry Loïs Boisson, who extended one of the most stunning runs in tennis history by beating No. 6 Mirra Andreeva 7-6 (6), 6-3. 'Unbelievable,' Boisson said. 'Incredible.' Those are a couple of good words for what's been happening. A year ago, Boisson was supposed to make her Grand Slam debut in Paris, but she tore a knee ligament and couldn't compete. Now 22, Boisson is the first woman to get to the semifinals of her first major tournament since Monica Seles and Jennifer Capriati did it at the 1989 French Open and is the lowest-ranked to get that far at Roland-Garros in at least 40 years. She's doing it with a game made for clay, anchored by heavy groundstrokes and buoyed by a rowdy, partisan crowd that rattled the 18-year-old Andreeva — she was warned for ball abuse for smacking one toward the upper deck after one bad volley — and was just as loud when Boisson upset No. 3 Jessica Pegula in the fourth round. 'It's impossible to describe,' Boisson said, 'what it feels like to have that kind of support.' Over and over again, the chair umpire tried to tell the 15,000 or so spectators to be quiet as their thunderous applause and shouts of Boisson's first name reverberated off the inside of the closed roof at Court Philippe-Chatrier. They didn't heed those requests. They jeered and whistled when Andreeva complained about noise between her first and second serves or argued line calls. And Boisson hung in there even while facing a set point in the first while down 5-3. When the match ended, Boisson collapsed to her back, chest heaving and hands on her face. When she rose, there were flecks of rust-colored clay all over, including her forehead. No matter what happens the rest of the way, Boisson certainly has left her mark on the 2025 French Open. What else happened at the French Open on Wednesday? The men's quarterfinals later in the day were No. 1 Jannik Sinner against unseeded Alexander Bublik, and 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic against No. 3 Alexander Zverev. Who plays at Roland-Garros on Thursday? The two women's semifinals are the only singles matches on the Day 12 schedule, with three-time defending champion Iga Swiatek facing No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka in just their second matchup at a Grand Slam tournament, and Gauff meeting Boisson, The men's semifinals are Friday. ___

Ex-Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announces switch to independent with new book
Former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who worked for two Democratic presidents and had one of the most public-facing roles in the Biden administration, is urging Americans to 'embrace life as independents.' Jean-Pierre shares her message with readers in a forthcoming book, 'Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines,' poised to be released in October by Hachette Book Group's Legacy Lit imprint. The book is described in promotional materials as a 'groundbreaking, revelatory assessment of America's broken two-party system.' 'Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an independent lightly,' a description of the book from the publisher said. 'She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision.' Former President Biden exited the 2024 White House race last July, amid questions about his mental and physical acuity. 'In an urgent, timely analysis,'Independent' urges all Americans to vote their values and maintain individuality within party lines,' the publisher said, calling the book a 'hard-hitting yet hopeful critique.' Fifty-year-old Jean-Pierre, who also worked in former President Obama's administration and under Biden became the first Black and the first openly LGBTQ person to serve as White House press secretary, 'presents clear arguments and provocative evidence as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant in recent elections and provides passionate insight for moving forward,' they added. In February, Jean-Pierre criticized Democrats for pressuring Biden to withdraw from the presidential race. 'I'd never seen a party do that in the way that they did, and it was hurtful and sad to see that happening, a firing squad around a person who I believe was a true patriot,' she said at the time.
