In a historic move, President Joe Biden will deliver a televised address from the Oval Office this evening at 8 p.m. Eastern Time, marking a pivotal moment in his presidency.
The speech comes on the heels of his surprise announcement to withdraw from the presidential race, leaving many Americans wondering what lies ahead.
“Today’s evening at 8 PM ET, I will address the nation from the Oval Office on what lies ahead and how I will finish the job for the American people,” President Biden declared in a message posted on X, setting the stage for a highly anticipated speech.
This address follows Biden’s recent decision to end his presidential bid, a move prompted by concerns from Democrats about his potential loss to Republican nominee Donald Trump.
During his campaign, Biden faced challenges, including a recent Covid diagnosis that forced him to leave the campaign trail.
In a gesture of unity, Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, who has now secured enough support to become the Democratic nominee.
Harris’s campaign has seen a significant surge in funding, raising over $100 million since the news broke.
