biden my mind is joe biden has always always been a consensus democrat he will basically be where the democratic party is kind of wherever it goes and so in that in that sense i agree with liz it does not surprise me greatly that this is where he has ended up i was telling a lot of people in kind of intradermal craddick party discussions you know during the primaries that that this is this is where i thought that you know where i thought that he would be look there's some obvious things with joe biden look joe biden is old he's an old white catholic man who has a very kind of genie all personality even people who are trying to demonize him now a hard time getting past that barack obama was a young black man with a foreign sounding name rooted in arabic. is a very different people right it's not surprising to me at all that that that things you know he is a different person american politics reacts to those 2 different kinds of people differently i think that that's just you know that that is just obvious the other thing is and this is one of those examples of sometimes a flawed person

president joe biden's 1st $100.00 days in office americans always get out. today that's what we're doing america's right. but as biden celebrated his achievements on wednesday night in his 1st formal address to congress many challenges still remain something we'll explore over the next 60 minutes. in 93 at the depths of the great depression franklin roosevelt used his 1st months as u.s. president to push sweeping legislation through congress it stabilized the nation in economic freefall and reshaped americans' relationship with their government for decades to come and this set a political benchmark against which every subsequent president has been judged now when joe biden marked his 1st $100.00 days with a speech to congress and the country he set similarly ambitious goals promising trillions of dollars in investment in jobs in infrastructure and in education republican party hit back and attacked biden for empty words and broken promises let's look back now at biden's 1st $100.00 days with this report from grossman george. when the us president speaks to c

now we begin in the united states where president joe biden has reportedly decided to withdraw all american troops from afghanistan by september 11th speaking anonymously u.s. officials have told the news agency roy has this the decision will be announced on wednesday around 2 and off hours and u.s. troops remain in the country down from a peak of more than 100000 in 2011 biden's decision would miss the may 1st deadline for the withdrawal agreed by with the taliban by the trump of ministration september 11th this year is the 20th anniversary of the $911.00 attacks which led to the u.s. invasion of afghanistan and america's longest war well that's now speak to our white house correspondent kelly i'll get a committee this reported date of september the 11th obviously symbolic and significant date possibly selected by president biden but what more do we know about why he's decided to delay the troop withdrawal. we don't know exactly why this is been delayed other than the fact that the biden administration's been very clear from the beginning when it came into office that it was going to revie

president joe biden a chance to change the trajectory in this country he said speaking of the systemic racism that is the stain on the nation's soul as he put it he said he has spoken to george floyd's family and told them that this verdict is a giant step forward in the march towards justice in the united states and said that this kind of verdict is much too rare and just before the president spoke we heard from the vice president comment harris who the senate to pass the george floyd justice policing act said something that the president also referred to all right let's cross to can we help get our correspondent standing by for us at the white house and kimberly a giant step forward as president. that is certainly the message coming from not only president joe biden but also his vice president kala harris when she spoke as she started out her comments she talked about how while this might be a measure of justice this in no way should equate to equal justice in other words that this is a white house that believes that there is still so much work to be done and that was the focus of th

president joe biden. vice president come on the harris the white house he is the 1st foreign leader abidance hosting since he took office the 2 i expected to discuss china's growing economic and military power in the pacific region aging has warned the u.s. and japan about what it described as negative news and collusion against china. the global economy is also another focus of talks between biden and get the 2 lead is concerned about a worldwide shortage of semiconductor chips rob reynolds has more on the story. semiconductors are at the heart of the devices many of us use every day from phones to game console household electronics and medical diagnostics to name just a few but now there are a shortage of the vital silicon chips in my 30 year career i've never seen a. demand exceeding supply to the extent that we have supplies were tight before the pandemic hit but during the global lockdowns demand for more networking in more devices has skyrocketed now we're in a multi-year cycle where the demand is r

well you know it is a little bit of a mystery given the fact that we know that lattimer putin and joe biden had a phone call just earlier this week and following that phone call the white house said what its goal was in that call was to try and establish when it comes to russian u.s. relations relations that are stable and predictable and then just days later we have these surprise sanctions so it is a bit of a head scratcher about the timing but what is clear is that the u.s. feels that now is the time to put in place some of those punitive actions against russia that the united states has taken in years and there's another reason they're taking these actions that has to do with the alleged bounties that were placed on u.s. soldiers of up to $100000.00 fighting in afghanistan by russia we should point out russia denies this and we should also point out that the u.s. intelligence on this allegation is of the category of low to medium confidence that it's even accurate still the white house is defending these actions say this on the burden of russia to explain its posture and engagemen

president joe biden and vladimir putin the russian leader the white house press secretary gentz psaki not disclosing who initiated that phone call but we do know that the call resulted in the leaders agreeing to meet at a later date for a summit in a 3rd party country those details still being worked out so a very busy white house press briefing in terms of news headlines there absolutely is to stay there for us can believe sports it's a scar in the minutes but of course the crew virus. issues so very much to the forefront of people's mind right now let's speak. she is standing by for us i'd say the u.s. food and drug administration in silver spring. patty this polls of the the johnson and johnson vaccine pretty much where a lot of people's minds just give us a sense of what you know about how the polls has been introduced and what kind of impacts will bond have on the wider u.s. vaccine. well the biden ministration says the johnson and johnson johnson and johnson vaccine was the 3rd vaccine approved it's being used less than the other to the pfizer and they say they've seen no red fl

biden look joe biden is old he's an old white catholic man who has a very kind of. personality even people who are trying to demonize him now a hard time getting past that barack obama was a young black man with a foreign sounding name rooted in arabic. these are very different people right it's not surprising to me at all that that that things you know he is a different person american politics reacts to those 2 different kinds of people differently i think that that's just you know that that is just obvious the other thing is and this is one of those examples of sometimes a flawed person we're all flawed but sometimes a flawed person. meets their moment and the kind of a signature thing about joe biden to his political career has been the politics of empathy. and at many points in our history that is that is all that is of only limited political you know currency political resonance he managed to become president though in a period where it was a central grounding aspect of a political personality both because of covert and because he was succeeding a man who is w

politicians were about to a farm joe biden is the winner of the 2028 presidential election you remember there was a big security cordon put on place after that particularly for inauguration day that over the last few weeks has come farther in but there are still these checkpoints and clearly at some point in the last stone and this is all happened just in the last hour and a car has tried to access one of those entry points it hasn't stopped it has hit 2 police officers the suspect is no in custody and 2 police officers have been injured all 3 all no way to a hospital ok so can i go back to the bit you talking about the the security that has come down i remember all of that from inauguration day that huge ring of security around the whole area when you say it's come down and been brought back how close could a person have gotten to the capitol these days. there are certain roads that take you up past the capitol building such as the cannon house building if you go there there is an entrance there staff use it journalists use it gets you into the complex there is a barrier there but in m

biden has in the last 15 or 20 minutes those who support joe biden more say look if you look at the historians they all recognize this as a genocide the turks in the past have said well you can't hold people to account for what happened in 1800 by today's standards but of course there was a military tribunal in turkey after this incident and they found those guilty of war crimes the people that were responsible for this so it is a significant moment we can expect that there will be some harsh words from ankara we nor the turks in the past have condemned comments from the catholic pope when he has recognized the genocide and other world leaders when they have either recognized that. come close to recognizing it relationships between washington and ankara haven't been great over recent years that has in the eyes of many here in washington post the tarts more towards vladimir putin this would help it's interesting talking about the reaction from turkey because we actually heard from president red tape earlier this week on thursday in at to space and at this announcement from joe biden
