Joe Biden

President Biden is negative for COVID-19 after a rebound case but will remain in isolation pending a second negative test, the White House announced on Saturday.

"It's a big deal," President Biden said of the Senate Democrats' bill, called the Inflation Reduction Act, at the White House Thursday.

The president touted investments in extreme heat resilience and offshore wind at the site of a converted coal plant in Massachusetts, but stopped short of declaring a "climate emergency."

Democrats' approval of President Biden has dropped 9 points, pushing him to just a 36% approval rating in the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.

Sidestepping the bad optics of a handshake with the crown prince deemed to have approved the operation that led to the death of Jamal Khashoggi, President Biden opted for a fist bump.

President Biden said "I always bring up human rights" on foreign trips, but stopped short of saying he would raise the 2018 killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi when he meets Saudi leaders.

The White House says Biden is trying to limit physical contact during his trip to the Middle East because of COVID risks. But it's a decision that comes conveniently ahead of an awkward meeting.

President Biden met with Mexico's Andrés Manuel López Obrador a month after the Mexican president boycotted a regional summit. Biden's public remarks were brief. López Obrador — not so much.

Biden has been faulted for speeches that do not seem to meet the moment or lack the urgency to compel others to follow. His soothing approach to issues that prompt anger has often failed to soothe.

Joe Biden has jettisoned most of his predecessor's foreign policy. But not the Abraham Accords. Those agreements between Israel and its neighbors are in the spotlight as Biden heads to the Mideast.
