President Biden is spending his first weekend at Camp David as commander in chief.
The historic spread in Western Maryland has been used by White House predecessors since Harry Truman as a retreat from the media and D.C. swamp.
“It provides a chance to get a blast of fresh air away from the press and a chance to be with family and friends,” presidential historian Douglas Brinkley told Reuters.
In addition to R&R, the location has also been used for high-stakes international politics. It was on the grounds of Camp David that President Carter hammered out the 1978 Camp David Accords between Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.
Foreign leaders have regularly taken up residence at the location when they’re in town.
Former President Trump, who liked to golf on weekends, made only two visits to the historic location during his presidency.

He doesn’t seem to be in the news much. Now that the Trump impeachment is over, we may see more of Joe.
Joseph Stolen pretending...
I see way too much of this moron at the checkout stand. Even that is too much. To me he is a figurehead leader of a bunch of evil dims who guide his so called administration.
I didn’t realize Camp David had a basement.
Not exactly working himself to death.
There is speculation that his dementia will not let him fly, so he will be sticking close to home base for his administration.
Being at Camp David helps confirm that speculation.
3 weeks on the job...needs a vacation already.
Stealer Joe needs all the rest and isolation he can get. The White House basement is too busy.
Lid weekend.....
You’re not in Western Maryland until you get west of Hagerstown. Being from Western Maryland, that’s a bit of a bone of contention.
Not a month in office and he is off to the retreat?
My oh my
A vacation ALREADY.. The media are all his supporting pals, why would he want to get away from them?
Hes not president.
Did he bring a pup tent, compass and marshmallows?
Now Slow Joe is off to the retreat, it is a command center for international negotiation...
Yeah I get it, I know they are wired there cuz I worked that shit but please people this is such crap.
You ain’t in western Maryland until you get to Accident.
Didn’t know Amtrak went there
