President Joe Biden's news conference will start an hour later than originally planned. Biden's Thursday news conference was slated for 5:30 p.m. ET, but the White House has moved it to 6:30. The news conference is the key event in a monumental week for Biden's campaign. The Democratic incumbent is fending off calls for him to step aside as the party's presumptive nominee following a shaky debate performance against Republican Donald Trump. The Biden news conference is just the type of event that many political watchers have said he needs to pull off successfully to turn back demands — including from fellow Democrats — that he withdraw.
