Watch live: First White House news briefing since Biden withdrawal from race
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is slated to hold a press briefing Wednesday.
It’s the White House’s first briefing since President Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential election and endorsed Vice President Harris to be the party’s nominee in November.
Biden, 81, announced Sunday he will no longer seek another four years in office after his physical and mental acuity were called into question following a prime-time debate in which he struggled to finish sentences, gave confused looks and fumbled through his answers.
The president said he would address the nation Thursday from the oval office about his decision.
The event is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT.
