Biden Warns of Threats to Democracy

President Addresses Concerns in Philadelphia

U.S. President Joe Biden delivered a speech in Philadelphia on Thursday, expressing his concerns about ongoing threats to democracy in the United States.

In his remarks, Biden highlighted the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol as a "direct assault on the foundations of our democracy," and warned that similar threats continue to exist.

Biden called for Americans to come together to defend democracy and protect their voting rights. He also stressed the importance of addressing the root causes of political polarization and division in the country.

The President's speech follows a series of attacks on democratic institutions in the United States, including efforts to restrict voting rights and overturn election results.
