On Friday President Joe Biden held an impromptu press conference just as Vice President Kamala Harris was taking the stage at a rally in Michigan. Harris began her speech at 2:04 PM EST, aiming to galvanize support in a key battleground state.
But only two minutes later, Biden appeared at the White House briefing room—his first press conference there since taking office. Major networks quickly cut from Harris’ rally to cover Biden’s remarks, overshadowing her moment in the spotlight.
Biden’s sudden appearance came at a crucial time for the administration, as the country faces multiple crises, including the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, a port strike that threatened to cripple the economy, and escalating tensions in the Middle East.
