More On:

President Joe Biden will be speaking at a news conference tonight amid growing concerns that he is no longer mentally fit to run for office or hold a second term as president.

This news conference is yet another attempt from the White House to assuage voters’ fears after his disappointing performance at the June 27 debate against Donald Trump. The president is reportedly facing internal pressure, as well as pressure from high-profile supporters such as George Clooney, to end his campaign while there’s still time.

“Folks, I might not walk as easily or talk as smoothly as I used to. I might not debate as well as I used to. But what I do know is how to tell the truth,” Biden wrote in a post on X after the debate.

He later sat down with ABC News’ George Stephanopolous to assert that he simply had “a bad episode” that evening. “If the Lord Almighty came down and said, ‘Joe, get outta the race,’ I’d get outta the race. The Lord Almighty’s not comin’ down,” he said, per NBC News. “I don’t think anybody’s more qualified to be president or win this race than me.”

Now, the president is set to hold a press conference from the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, where he will accept questions from the White House press corps tonight. Per The New York Times, Biden has held the least amount of news conferences of any president since President Ronald Reagan. This marks his first press conference since November 2023.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Biden press conference today.

According to sources familiar with the matter, an internal White House planning document lists questions about Biden’s age and health, and why he should stay in the race, amongst other topics, per The New York Times.

This is likely to help Biden prepare for possible questions from the press. But it is not standard for questions to be shared ahead of a news conference.

Biden is scheduled to begin taking questions from reporters at 6:30 p.m. ET.

The Biden press conference will likely air on many major news networks such as NBC, ABC, CNN, CBS and more, which can be streamed on platforms including FuboTV and DirecTV Stream, as well as YouTube TV and Hulu + Live TV.

Several news outlets will be live streaming the press conference for free once it begins Thursday evening, including NBC News and AP News.

The White House will also be live streaming the event on YouTube.
