Biden has a really good crowd in Detroit
Biden on speculation he'll drop out: "I am running and we're gonna win."
"Lock him up!" chants about Trump at the Biden rally which frankly is a look I don't love
Biden: "I love telling Trump this, even though I don't own any stock. The stock market is at a historic high."
Biden: "That's why I call him Donald 'Herbert Hoover' Trump!"
Biden brings up Trump's stories about sharks and electrocutions
Biden brings up Trump's praise for Putin and says, "but people would rather talk about how I mix up names. I guess they don't remember that Trump called Nikki Haley Nancy Pelosi."
Biden is really unloading on Trump: "Donald Trump is a convicted criminal ... of 34 felonies for paying hush money to a porn star and hiding it from voters in 2016. Donald Trump was found liable for sexual assault ... it's the judge's language, not mine. He raped her."
Biden is interrupted by demonstrator and after a lengthy pause says, "Folks, look, I understand her passion. That's why I put together a detailed plan that the UN has accepted, that the Israelis have accepted, that the Palestinians have accepted ... This war must end."
Biden: "Trump said if he wins, he'll be a dictator on day one. He means it, folks. We're not gonna let that happen. Over my dead body it will happen."
Biden: "Just look at this right-wing Project 2025... [it] is run & paid for by Trump people... [it's] the biggest attack on our system of government and our personal freedom that has ever been proposed in this country... [it] will criminalize the shipping of abortion medication"
Biden: "I know I look 40, but I'm a little bit older. Hopefully with age comes a little wisdom. And here's what I know. I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how & I've demonstrated how to do this job. And I know Americans want a president not a dictator."
Biden's speech to a very hot crowd in Detroit is over. If you appreciate me bringing you some highlights from it, please show love by signing up for my newsletter. I think you'll enjoy it and paid subscribers make my work possible. publicnotice.co/subscribe

I'm going to put together a thread covering Biden's rally in Madison, Wisconsin. Follow along for clips and commentary.
Biden has jokes: "I'm only 40 now, but I was a kid back then."
Biden: "By the way, if you wondered whether Trump has it all together, did you ever hear how explained the 4th of July? ... He said, 'George Washington's army won the revolution by taking control of the airports from the British.' Talk about me misspeaking!"

Biden: "This nation is founded on the principle that there are no kings in America .. no one is above the law, not even the President of the US ... [but] for all practical purposes, today's decision almost certainly means that there are almost no limits on what POTUS can do"
Biden: "This decision today has continued the Court's attack in recent years on a range of long-established legal principles in our nation. From gutting voting rights and civil rights, to taking away a woman's right to choose, to today's decision that undermines the rule of law."
Biden: "Nearly 4 years ago, my predecessor sent a violent mob to the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power. We all saw it ... now the man who sent that mob is facing potential conviction. The American people deserve to have an answer in the courts before the election."

Margaret Brennan was not having JD Vance's attempt to shift blame to the media for Trump's lying
BRENNAN: If you're VP, do you believe Trump could pardon himself?

VANCE: We know POTUS has to have immunity. Should Obama be prosecuted for droning American citizens?

B: So you do believe POTUS could pardon himself?

VANCE: I believe the president has broad pardon authority.
BRENNAN: In a Trump/Vance administration, would your Justice Department prosecute Joe Biden, and if so for what?

VANCE: Well first of all, that would be the responsibility of the attorney general.

Rep. Clyburn on CNN: "I always say that the best predictor of future behavior is past performance. And when you look at the best performance of these two men, we get a lot of indication of what their future behavior should be. Joe Biden should continue to run on his record."
Clyburn: "Take into account the record. Yes, it was a bad performance ... I know when I see what I call 'preparation overload.' And that's exactly what was going on the other night."
Dana Bash gets a bit defensive after Clyburn criticizes the CNN debate for the lack of fact-checking (Bash was one of the moderators)
