President Joe Biden announced he is dropping out of the presidential race after mounting calls from Democrats for him to end his reelection bid. Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the party’s new nominee and said he will speak to the nation later this week in more detail.

Vice President Kamala Harris said in a statement she was “honored” to receive President Joe Biden’s endorsement and intends to “earn and win” the Democratic nomination for president in her first public statement since Biden’s stunning announcement.
