President Biden will deliver a prime-time address Thursday at Philadelphia’s Independence National Historical Park, a White House official said Monday.
The speech, the official said, will be on “the continued battle for the soul of the nation.”
The president is expected to highlight his administration’s latest achievements and talk about how the country’s democracy is at stake during the midterm elections.
“He will talk about the progress we have made as a nation to protect our democracy, but how our rights and freedoms are still under attack,” the official said. “He will make clear who is fighting for those rights, fighting for those freedoms, and fighting for our democracy.”
It isn’t the first time Biden has turned to Philadelphia for a pivotal moment in his presidential journey.
He announced his 2020 presidential bid in the city, noting the significance of standing in the “birthplace” of American democracy. His campaign was headquartered there, and he returned to the city right before the election.
Biden again returned last year to deliver remarks on the importance of protecting the right to vote from the city’s National Constitution Center.

 
Bold move. Hope he can stay up that late.

Probably but that'll be the gist. You can't tell me you don't think that. If you don't, there are many on here that do.
It depends on what the purpose of the speech is for. I think he'll alude to specific details but if his purpose is to try and lower the temperature of the division he probably won't spend too much time airing grievances.

Only one party tried to fraudulently overturn the results of a free and fair election and the ringleader of that effort still has overwhelming support of said party. Only one party is trying to make voting more difficult and allow state legislatures to overrule the will of voters. Until these things change drastically its just an irrefutable reality. Sorry you support democracy hating traitors but that's just how it is with that embarrassing excuse for a political party
 
Let the real fascist tell you how to protect democracy. This outta be good.
 
Reynolds and Chuck won't be tuning in. Too busy trying to find Donny boy a lawyer he didn't find from a tv commercial.
$100 says Reynolds and Grassley have already written their canned response.

As far as the lawyer thing, no one will work for Trump. It's part of the reason the MaL fallout has been so brutal. It's "amateur hour" in the Turd camp.
 
I expect he will try to further divide Republicans and continue to call out the far right. It’s a smart move.
Attempting to negotiate with the Radical Right was a fruitless effort. The cons never intended to work with the WH on anything.

Biden has gone "scorched earth" and his approval ratings have done a 180. Biden has all the momentum and the GOP is in panic mode.

It's truly astonishing how the mood has changed since the SCOTUS ruling.
 
Interesting strategy by the dems. Destroy all you can in two years, then try to reverse course two months before midterms.

Now it's time to fund the police? Why the sudden change of heart?

Probably feels the need to slam the semi-fascists again prior to start of the holiday weekend...
 
The ratings in PA will be higher for the Penn State game … nationally it will be behind the housewives of random city and kardashians reruns

Burning buildings and killing Cops is the new form of "Democracy" apparently. Go get'em Joe, hope they got a great light source for the teleprompter. LOL!

And this is in a Dem run City? Better bring all the Secret Service and the National Guard with ya Joe! Good luck. LOL!
 
I wonder how Biden will justify protecting democracy by canceling student loan debt using executive action instead of an act of Congress.

I could go on and on.
Rs could have stepped up at anytime. They didn't want to. They got their rich tax cuts so that was good enough for them.

No, sorry Republicans have too much deference for the Constitution to simply buy leftist votes by giving money to rich white kids. Sorry, that's a communist tactic.
So, the cons just bought the votes from the rich white farmers instead. Yes, a commie tactic.
