Democratic members of Congress are reviving a fight over President Biden's candidacy following a brief respite in the wake of Saturday's assassination attempt against former President Trump, Axios has learned.
Some lawmakers are uneasy about the Democratic National Committee's plans to forge ahead with a virtual roll call vote to nominate Biden weeks before the Democratic convention.
"People are back to being angry at Biden and a push to sign on to this letter is going around ... the 'replace Biden' movement is back," a House Democrat told Axios.
A letter circulating among congressional Democrats argues that there is "no legal justification" for an early virtual roll call after Ohio moved its filing deadline past the date of the Democratic convention.
***
Reps. Susan Wild (D-Pa.), a swing-district lawmaker, and Mike Quigley (D-Ill), who has publicly called on Biden to withdraw, told Axios they plan to sign onto the letter.
Rep. Mike Levin (D-Calif.), who told Biden he should drop out during a call with Hispanic Caucus members on Friday, will sign the letter as well, his spokesperson told Axios.
***
Rep. Jared Huffman (D-Calif.), who told Biden on a Progressive Caucus call last Saturday that he worries the president is being shielded from bad news, has been circulating the letter to colleagues, according to one lawmaker.
*** The DNC's virtual roll call is likely to start on July 29 and conclude by Aug. 5, two weeks before the Democratic convention begins on Aug. 19, Axios' Hans Nichols and Alex Thompson reported.
That means Biden would only only need to withstand internal opposition and criticism towards his candidacy for another two weeks.

Operation “bullseye” “missed” and the TDS cabal is looking for plan B.
Scoop? LOLOLOL. We all knew it would happen. They can’t help themselves.
Maybe President Retard should have more outdoor events?
Then if the delegates don’t need to go to Chicago and actually vote on the nomination, what will they do? Will they spend all their time visiting tourist attractions in Chicago?
After watching the interview on Monday, he needs a block of wood, a knife, and a whiskey flask. Had an uncle just like him..
Jill will hang on as long as Joe is still breathing. They cannot allow him to resign, and the Dem elites have no rule, law or other way to make him quit or resign.
Sucks to be them.................
Any normal person like Joe would be in an assisted living facility by now..............
At this point, anybody they put up in place of Biden is a sacrificial lamb to be slaughtered at the November polls. I guess that’s a good way to ensure that what can be, can be unburdened by what as been.
“Then if the delegates don’t need to go to Chicago and actually vote on the nomination, what will they do? Will they spend all their time visiting tourist attractions in Chicago?”
They’re Democrats, so they’ll go with booze, gay bathhouses, underaged hookers, Spirit-Cooking, Satanic Masses, and drugs.
They just had an assassination attempt pause. Pause is over.
Democrats in office and on the ballot this year seem to be like cattle penned up and beginning to panic because they sense that the fencing and chutes of the slaughter house do not lead to a good place. There is no path for escape though, at least not this time.
Are you asking, who is Biden’s commander-in-chief?
Rebellion? Or......insurrection?
Biden has F-15s and soldiers ready to put it down.
Biden quote about dissenters on the right, earlier:
“They need F-15s. They don’t need a rifle.” (Laughter.) June 11, 2023.
It was more a rhetorical question. Susan Rice, Valerie Jarrett, Obama, Jill Biden, Hunter Biden.
Ha.
General: Iranians have launched a missile heading toward Tel Aviv. What is the decision of my Commander in Chief?
Biden: I’ll ask him when he gets here. Hopefully after my nap.
Question for Der Joe
How many F-15s did the Taliban have?
They’ve been watching the Republican National Convention and crapping their pants.
Yep, we see, when there is an assassination attempt, they pause for a day or two.
Biden’s call for civility and lowering the temperature lasted only a single day.
