Joe Biden sat down for a pre-recorded interview with CBS News reporter Robert Costa. The interview was conducted on Sunday and will air in full on Sunday, August 11. Joe Biden has not been publicly in more than 3 days. CBS played a clip from Biden’s interview with Robert Costa. “Are you confident that there will be a peaceful transfer of power in January 2025?” CBS News reporter Robert Costa asked Biden. “If Trump wins, no, I’m not confident at all,” Biden said before correcting himself: “I mean if Trump loses, I’m not confident at all. He means what he...

Joe Biden will return to the White House Saturday afternoon, interrupting a weekend vacation at the beach in Delaware, the Biden press office announced: “The President is returning to the White House this afternoon to consult with his national security team about events in the Middle East.” Biden took off for his Rehoboth Beach, Delaware home Friday night with plans to not return until Sunday night, even as he told reporters earlier Friday that he expected Iran to attack Israel “sooner rather than later”:

President Biden and Vice President Harris will meet with national security officials in the White House Situation Room on Monday, as Iran reiterates its intention to punish Israel for the apparent assassination of top Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. The meeting will focus on developments in the Middle East, the White House said. Concerns about a wider regional conflict have escalated with the assassination of Haniyeh. While Israel has not acknowledged the strike in Iran, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowed to seek revenge against Israel after Haniyeh’s death. Attacks by Iran and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group...

US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris welcomed Paul Whelan, Evan Gershkovich, and Alsu Kurmasheva—the three prisoners recently freed by Russia—as they arrived at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland, on Thursday. After greeting the freed prisoners, Biden and Harris addressed the media on the tarmac. Following the address, Biden was seen walking back onto the plane that had transported the prisoners, a moment that quickly went viral on social media. Critics seized on the footage, questioning Biden's awareness and fitness for the presidency. Comments flooded social media, with one user on X saying, "He definitely forgot where he was."...

Making clear he was alarmed at Trump returning to office, he wrote: “If a future president incites a violent mob to storm the Capitol and stop the peaceful transfer of power — like we saw on Jan. 6, 2021 — there may be no legal consequences.” In addition to his so-called No One Is Above The Law Amendment, Biden proposed term limits for Supreme Court justices, advocating for the president to be able to appoint a new justice every two years to spend 18 years in active service on the high court.

President Biden has agreed to step aside, but not to go quietly. In remarks from the Oval Office on Wednesday, he said in his final months “I’m going to call for Supreme Court reform, because this is critical to our democracy.” What a last spasm by a lame duck, demanding a rewrite of the American founding that Kamala Harris will have to defend or disavow. The specifics await Mr. Biden’s announcement, but the presidential brainstorm has leaked to the press. News reports say Mr. Biden may push for term limits on the Justices, an “enforceable” ethics code, and a constitutional...

Yes, it applies in this case -- although its usually 48 hours. First note: The White House lied straight up about the speech being delivered "live"; it was clearly not. How do we know this with absolute certainty? Biden had a watch on and it is visible in some of the shot -- and was not at the time of the speech. You'd think the production crew would have enough marbles rolling around to catch this but... nope. It thus was quite-clearly taped and therefore the obvious question is "how many takes were done and was it continuous?" One lie...

WASHINGTON — Now a caretaker president, Joe Biden has no realistic hope of getting a divided Congress to pass unfinished parts of his agenda. But what he can do in his remaining months in office may be even more important in preserving America's democratic traditions: stop Donald Trump's return to power, the president suggested Wednesday night in his Oval Office address. “Nothing,” Biden said, “nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy. That includes personal ambition. So, I’ve decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation.” Biden has left it to his...

(The Epoch Times)—President Joe Biden said in a July 24 speech from the Oval Office that he plans to call for Supreme Court reform in his final stretch as America’s commander-in-chief. President Biden made the remarks after explaining his decision not to seek reelection and laying out his plans for his final six months in office. “Over the next six months, I’ll be focused on doing my job as president,” he said, highlighting key goals such as boosting economic growth, lowering inflation, tightening gun control, and safeguarding the planet from what he described as a “climate crisis.” “And I’m going...

Ever since President Biden’s Sunday announcement that he would not seek re-election, clearly because of age, I keep thinking about Donald Trump’s and JD Vance’s contemptuous reactions to one of the most difficult personal decisions a president has ever made, and what it says about their character.“The Democrats pick a candidate, Crooked Joe Biden, he loses the Debate badly, then panics, and makes mistake after mistake, is told he can’t win, and decide they will pick another candidate, probably Harris,” Trump wrote on social media on Monday. He later added: “It’s not over! Tomorrow Crooked Joe Biden’s going to wake...

President Biden addresses the nation at 8 p.m. Eastern to either explain why he withdrew from re-election on Sunday, maybe he is now resigning today, or will try and explain why he is still competent to remain as president. White House: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93T8biDlaBc

Joe Biden's phone call to former campaign staffers on Monday has sparked new theories on the president's health after an odd moment between the president and Kamala Harris. The 81-year-old spoke in a scratchy voice from COVID isolation at his Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, home and told Harris: 'I'm watching you kid'. However, many noted a strange exchange between the vice president and her boss, who has not been seen in five days and since he shocked the world by dropping out of the race via a letter posted to social media on Sunday. The new presumptive Democratic nominee Harris said:...

“That debate was a set-up to convince Democrats that he couldn’t run for president,” a source close to the Biden family told The Post Monday. Joe Biden was forced to leave the presidential race after high-level Democrats threatened him with the 25th Amendment. Operatives at the very highest levels of the Democratic Party threatened Joe Biden with forcibly removing him from office unless he stepped down, sources told The Post. The well-orchestrated “palace coup” to stop the faltering president seeking re-election has been in place for weeks, but stubborn Biden fought against it every step of the way, according to...

We are not even 24 hours into Biden's resignation from the United States presidential race and we already have a very suspicious developments. In this case, the signature of that letter, He uploaded to Twitter. And we can't possibly know if it was indeed him who uploaded that letter to Twitter. According to what we know, Biden told his team up until the night before that he was staying in the race. The very morning of July 21st, a Sunday, Biden's team still had the firm belief. That he was staying in the race. That's what Biden had been saying...

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

WASHINTON, DC — President Biden finally admitted this afternoon that he is no longer mentally fit to be President, then assured the nation that he will continue being president. "I have to face reality. My mind isn't what it used to be," President Biden announced Sunday. "I forget things. Sometimes I don't know where I am. Yesterday I mistook a houseplant for Janet Yellen. It's something about her face. So, with a heavy heart, I am announcing that I am no longer fit to be President and will cease campaigning. Still, you can sleep easy knowing I will continue running...

"I loathe Joseph Biden. He has been a cancer to our Republic for over half a century. Everything he has ever done has been at the bidding of his party, always putting their power over any devotion to America first. That said, he is still the President of the United States, as gruesome a reality as that may be. In what universe does Nancy Pelosi or any other swamp creature from the Democrat Party cesspool in Washington have the right to decide he must step down as president, simply because he is doing poorly in the polls? Is there not...

More than four dozen former foreign and national security officials for the U.S. government called on Biden in a letter Friday to drop out of the presidential race. "We write as former U.S. officials who have strongly supported your presidency and your initiatives to strengthen U.S. foreign and national security policy," they wrote. "We have welcomed the measures you have taken to promote U.S. alliances in Europe, Asia, and the Americas; to manage relations with great powers; and to address global issues such as climate change. These initiatives have been built on your decades-long record of support for responsible U.S....

BREAKING: Per @MarkHalperin , Biden will announce his withdrawal as soon as Sunday, followed by an OPEN Democrat convention between Kamala and three or more rivals. Biden will NOT endorse his VP and will NOT resign the presidency.

During an interview on Tuesday for Wednesday’s BET News interview special “Black America Votes: The Biden Interview,” President Joe Biden said that he tells people who are dealing with high prices that inflation is falling, he believes the Federal Reserve will reduce rates, we have to confront corporate greed, he has policies on housing, and he implemented his student loan plan. Journalist Ed Gordon asked, “What do you tell people who are paying six bucks for cereal, they can’t take their kids to a movie or a ballgame, memories that last with you? What do you tell them?”
