Why questions about Biden's 2024 plans will make it harder for Democrats to win
CNN
Joe Biden is less than a year into his presidency and already his party is fractured over the question of whether he will -- or should -- run again in 2024.
"Biden and aides tell allies he is running in 2024 amid growing Democratic fears," reads the headline of a Washington Post story detailing the machinations over whether the 79-year-old President is, in fact, planning to run again.
(My favorite part of the Post story is that after assurance after assurance that Biden is in fact running, they drop this quote: "One Democrat involved in campaigns said they couldn't think of a single person they had spoken to in the last month who considers the possibility of Biden running again to be a real one.")

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
