Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Biden Returns to White House as Kamala Harris Campaigns in Wisconsin

HeadlineJul 24, 2024

President Biden returned to the White House Tuesday after testing negative for COVID-19. Biden is planning a primetime address from the Oval Office this evening where, for the first time, he will explain his decision not to seek reelection in November.

On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for her first campaign rally since she replaced Biden as the Democrats’ presumptive nominee. Harris further cemented her status as the front-runner when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries endorsed her candidacy. Since Biden stepped down, Kamala Harris has raised more than $120 million, a record in presidential campaign fundraising history.
