Roundup: Dems Ask, Is Biden's Time Up? DOJ Post-SCOTUS Fears

Roundup: Dems Ask, Is Biden's Time Up? DOJ Post-SCOTUS Fears

With Congress returning to Washington next week and more lawmakers raising the possibility that President Biden should step down from the ticket, the president's ABC interview and weekend events will be closely watched by Democrats looking for a clear path forward.

And after the Supreme Court ruled that presidents cannot be prosecuted for the work that makes up the core responsibilities of the office, some Department of Justice staff are worried that presidents could order them to do unethical or illegal things.

This episode: senior White House correspondent Tamara Keith, congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh, senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro, and national justice correspondent Carrie Johnson.

The podcast is produced by Jeongyoon Han, Casey Morell and Kelli Wessinger. Our intern is Bria Suggs. Our editor is Eric McDaniel. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.
