US Elections

Republicans demand Biden's resignation after he ends re-election bid, questioning his ability to govern. Biden vows to complete his term, calling the demands "ridiculous."

The exact timing of the meeting is still being negotiated between the two, as the US President is still recovering from COVID-19, the Press cited the official as saying.

After weeks of in-party fighting between Democrats on whether Biden, 81, should stay in the race, a rush of support coalescing behind her is crucial just over 100 days before November's election.

CNN said the Republican former president made the comments to the network shortly after Biden announced his decision.

Friedman expressed concern over the Democratic Party’s decision to push Kamala Harris as the presidential candidate without a proper vetting process.

Israeli officials, such as Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid and Democrats chairman Yair Golan, thanked US President Joe Biden for his service and friendship with Israel.

Questions arise about whether the candidacy will shift to Kamala Harris or another senior Democrat.

"I am honored to have the President’s endorsement," Harris continued. This comes amid weeks of speculation and pressure by the Democratic Party.
