Joe Biden speaks in Texas to commemorate 60th anniversary of Civil Rights Act

After a politically tumultuous week in the U.S., President Joe Biden made his way to the Texas capital on July 29, 2024.

The trip was previously planned for July 15, 2024, but was postponed following an assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump just two days prior.

On July 23, 2024, the White House announced President Biden's plans to visit Austin on July 29, 2024, where he commemorated the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act at the LBJ Presidential Library.

The announcement came after the president formally announced his decision to withdraw from the 2024 race.

"It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President," President Biden shared in a statement. "And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term."

Term limits for Congress is way more important

[Squeaks-ii]

I WANT TO KNOW WHO IS REALLY RUNNING OUR COUNTRY!!!

[enterprise]

How about trying to pass a bill that has term limits for people in congress as well

[cathleenheckert]

We're a Constitutional Republic, creep, read the Constitution.

Against all enemies foreign And domestic

That's a bold amendment for the criminal in chief to make. He knows money laundering is illegal, right? So is taking bribes or " gifts" from our enemies. Coercion is also illegal. Just remember mr. potato, YOU said it. Hahaha no one is above the law, not even if you are old and too feeble to stand trial

[hint]

Someone who has been a politician for 50 years is talking about term limits. 😂

[lotsiebooks]

Did his people not just put in a presidential candidate with 0000votes?

[AgathaR-vy]

I can't believe Texas let him in.

What a disgraceful time we're living in! Let's go, Brandon!

Where does Project 2025 interfere with voting rights??? Speaking of voting rights… who voted for Kamela to be the Democratic Party nominee???

[DavidMilan-mlb]

Term limits for all political positions. Transparency and Accountability in
Local, State and Federal. 😊 11 Supreme Court Justices (Yes Reform).

‼️ The biggest issue rn is the fact that most state Supreme Courts are composed of old men over age 78. There are open segregationists in some states. Term and age limits are overdue.

[smyrnagal]

Did he care about long standing justices when Ginsburg was comatose while "serving" on the court?

[suemullins]

What have the Democrats done for black people since the civil rights were inacted?

[nikkistinson]

Lincoln, Reagan, Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Trump, RFK, ( Off top of my head). IF you're getting shot at.... YOURE NOT LYING...Figure it out.

[Jeremy-thpt]

What is he blathering on about?

Again, he makes this all about himself.
"I was a public defender, I was so great, I did this, I did that"

It's always about him.

So if old Joe's dementia is too advanced for him to run for president, doesn't that mean his dementia is too advanced for him to be president 🤔?

[Sammytwo]

Didn't Johnson have something to do with Kennedy's death???

[paulpfeifer]

I think the supreme court should be limited to 12 years, not 18. And no retirement benefits. Same with congress.
