 And the White House announced Tuesday that President Joe Biden will meet with congressional leaders and Democratic governors, sit for a network television interview, and hold a news conference in the coming days. A blitz designed to push back against growing pressure for the 81-year-old to step aside in the 2024 race after his disastrous performance in last week's debate with Republican Donald Trump. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre added the president has no intention of stepping aside.
