Sorry for the short notice on this one, it was announced this morning but I just found out now.

8 PM Eastern / 5 PM Pacific, from the Oval Office. Biden speaking, presumably about the Trump assassination attempt.

Video here of the earlier conference, still looking for the Oval Office speech.

    Doubtful he was a republican, I’m pretty convinced he was libertarian. Just saying

    Edit: Jesus, the mindless hatred. FWIW, I’m very anti Republican, but if you actually keep up with the information that has come out this dude was most likely libertarian.

    Edit 2: based on news that came out today looks like he was conservative / republican

        Correct, in PA, a state which is known for people registering against party affiliations. His father, whose gun he used, is libertarian, and he donated to the Democratic party.

          Registering as a Republican makes him a Republican no matter who he votes for.

          You are thinking of libertarian vs conservative or liberal.
