Over 400 Biden administration employees

"a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war," NBC News reports.
We represent a coalition of Biden-Harris
administration political appointees and
civil servants, positioned across the domestic
and foreign policy spheres, working in
federal agencies, departments, independent
agencies and the White House, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.
We call on President Biden to urgently
demand a ceasefire; and to call for
de-escalation of the current conflict by
securing the immediate release of the Israeli
hostages and arbitrarily detained Palestinians;
the restoration of water, fuel, electricity
and other basic services; and the passage
of adequate humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.

of adequate humanitarian aid to the Gaza strip, Via open letter signed by Biden administration staff.
The open letter's signatories stem from
over 30 federal departments and agencies.
.
The effort was led by two administration
staff members who requested anonymity
due to fear of retaliation for opposing
the administration's position.
Signatories also reportedly remained anonymous because of the same concerns.
.
Every day, you’re going in to work for this
administration, then you’re going to look
at your phone, you’re going to see the
suffering that you kind of feel like you’re
causing … a lot of people are no longer
comfortable being silent, no longer
comfortable being complacent in a way, Biden administration staff members, to NBC News.
NBC News reports that congressional staff has also
asked Congress to demand a cease-fire because of "antisemitism, anti-Muslim and anti-Palestinian sentiment on the rise nationwide.".
It’s unfortunate that we’re at this point.
Having hundreds and thousands of people
come together within this administration
and within Congress and say we are calling
for a cease-fire, something that’s so basic
to just end human suffering, Biden administration staff members, to NBC News

Biden Asserts Executive Privilege , Over Audio of Interview With Robert Hur.
In February, Hur's yearlong investigation
into whether President Biden mishandled classified documents ended without enough evidence to support criminal charges.
In February, Hur's yearlong investigation
into whether President Biden mishandled classified documents ended without enough evidence to support criminal charges.
House Republicans were provided a
transcript of Biden's interview with Hur, but they wanted the audio, which the DOJ denied.
As a result, House Republicans were
moving to hold Attorney General
Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress.
On May 16, the Department of Justice told House Republicans that the president asserted executive privilege over audio from his interview with the special counsel.
The move protects Garland from criminal exposure as GOP lawmakers seek to hold him accountable.
Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte
explained the DOJ's actions in a letter.
The Attorney General must draw a line
that safeguards the Department from
improper political influence and protects
our principles, our law enforcement work,
and the people who carry out that work
independently, without fear or favor, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter .
The Committees seek to hold the
Attorney General in contempt
not for failing in his duties,
but for upholding them, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter .
With the information you now have,
the Committees ought not to proceed
with contempt and should instead avoid
unnecessary and unwarranted conflict, Assistant Attorney General Carlos Uriarte, via letter .
White House Counsel Ed Siskel also wrote a letter supporting the assertion of executive privilege. .
The absence of a legitimate need
for the audio recordings lays bare
your likely goal—to chop them up,
distort them, and use them for
partisan political purposes, White House Counsel Ed Siskel, via letter

from @CNN for a debate on June 27th.
Over to you, Donald. As you said:
anywhere, any time, any place, President Joe Biden, via X.
Donald Trump lost two debates to
me in 2020. Since then he hasn’t shown

Well, make my day, pal, I’ll even do it
twice. So let’s pick the dates, Donald –
I hear you’re free on Wednesdays, President Joe Biden, via video message.
Trump took to Truth Social to respond.
I am Ready and Willing to Debate

times in June and September, Donald Trump, via Truth Social.

Both candidates have expressed a preference to debate sooner than the fall dates initially proposed by the Commission on Presidential Debates.
According to Biden campaign chair
Jen O'Malley Dillion, those dates are
"out of step with changes in the structure of our elections and the interests of voters.".
Trump went on to say that he'd like
to debate Biden more than twice.
I would strongly recommend more
than two debates and, for excitement
purposes, a very large venue, although
Biden is supposedly afraid of crowds - , Donald Trump, via Truth Social.
That’s only because he doesn’t get
them. Just tell me when, I’ll be
there. 'Let’s get ready to Rumble!!!', Donald Trump, via Truth Social.
