President Biden will address the nation to announce his decision to withdraw from the 2024 Democratic reelection race.

President Joe Biden will address the nation from the Oval Office on Wednesday evening to announce his decision to withdraw from the 2024 Democratic reelection race.

Biden posted on X that he would speak “on what lies ahead” and how he will “finish the job for the American people.” The address is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET.

The president departed Delaware shortly before 2 p.m. on Tuesday after nearly a week of isolation at his Rehoboth Beach home following his second bout with COVID-19. According to a letter from his doctor, Kevin O’Connor, released Tuesday, Biden is now testing negative for the virus and his symptoms have resolved.

Holding a blue paper mask, Biden told reporters, “I am feeling well” but did not answer other questions, such as whether Vice President Kamala Harris can defeat Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Biden has not been seen publicly since July 17 but called into a campaign meeting on Monday to address staff and express his support for Harris’ bid to replace him, a day after announcing he would leave the race.
