Sorry for the short notice on this one, it was announced this morning but I just found out now.

8 PM Eastern / 5 PM Pacific, from the Oval Office. Biden speaking, presumably about the Trump assassination attempt.

Video here of the earlier conference, still looking for the Oval Office speech.

                I say it sarcastically, but not without a hint of truth behind it. With the current political leanings of the Supreme Court, if Biden ever tried to off a political opponent as an official act, they would probably call for him to be impeached and hung for treason. If a republican did it, they would likely throw a pizza party and declare the act a necessity to preserve American politics.

      Doubtful he was a republican, I’m pretty convinced he was libertarian. Just saying

      Edit: Jesus, the mindless hatred. FWIW, I’m very anti Republican, but if you actually keep up with the information that has come out this dude was most likely libertarian.

      Edit 2: based on news that came out today looks like he was conservative / republican
