When will President Joe Biden's Press Conference Address Toxic Masculinity Today?

The Democratic Party is facing an internal crisis as it grapples with the sexist and ageist scrutiny of President Biden. The conference, convened to address these concerns, reflects a regressive mindset that undermines our core values of diversity and inclusion. We must challenge these outdated notions and stand firm against discrimination in all its forms.

Biden to Address the Nation From a Country in Ruins, But Literally Who Cares?

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ancient, white male President Joe Biden is doing that thing where he talks at people tonight, and everyone is rolling their eyes so hard it hurts.

After a less-than-stellar debate performance and ongoing concerns about his, like, general alive-ness, Biden is doing a solo press conference to reassure people he can do his job and stuff. It's on Thursday, July 11, at 5:30 p.m. CT, live from the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in D.C. It'll be streaming on major news sites, cable channels, and YouTube.

This press conference is a big deal because it's Biden's first one in eight months, and he'll probably talk about the NATO summit and how he's totally still got it. But, like, who cares? He's 81 years old and has only done, like, 160 interviews since he became president, which is way less than Trump's 468 in his first term. So, like, why should we care now?

Democrats are dragging Biden for his low energy and are basically asking him to stan-cancel himself. Rep. Lloyd Doggett was the first to throw shade, saying Biden should peace out of the nomination. Then, George Clooney served some serious tea in a New York Times op-ed, spilling that literally everyone in Congress is side-eyeing Biden but won't say it out loud.

Biden and his whole team are trying to do damage control, with VP Kamala Harris keynote-speech-ing it up in Dallas and Biden heading to Austin on Monday to give a speech at the LBJ Presidential Library and Museum about civil rights. It's gonna be livestreamed on YouTube at 12:30 p.m., in case you're into that kind of thing.

But, like, honestly, same, George Stephanopoulos.
