The Biden campaign has shifted its strategy by sending surrogates, including actor Robert De Niro, to a news conference at the New York trial involving former President Trump. This move comes amidst concerns over President Biden's polling numbers in swing states, prompting the campaign to seek attention and address key issues such as threats to democracy.
There is a growing sense of unease within the Democratic Party regarding Biden's reelection prospects, with reports of strategists and officeholders expressing concerns over recent polling data. The party is reportedly in a state of alert, particularly following polls showing Biden trailing in key swing states and demographic shifts among traditional Democratic voter groups.
In a recent development, Justice Alito has informed Congress that he will not recuse himself from cases related to January 6th, despite controversy over flags displayed at his residence. Alito clarified that his wife's actions in flying certain flags were not politically motivated, and he has no intention of stepping aside from his role in upcoming trials.
The refusal to recuse has sparked criticism from Democrats, who are questioning Alito's impartiality. However, the Justice's detailed explanation of the flag incident suggests a personal matter rather than a political statement, emphasizing his commitment to remaining involved in legal proceedings.
