Biden Shortens Foreign Trip to Focus on Debt Ceiling Talks

President Biden will cut short his upcoming foreign trip, skipping planned stops in Papua New Guinea and Australia amid increasingly urgent talks between the White House and Congress over how to raise the government’s debt limit and avoid a potentially catastrophic default. Biden will still leave Wednesday to attend a Group of Seven summit in Hiroshima, Japan, but will return to the United States on Sunday.

Biden's reelection prospects threatened by debt, border, and other challenges.

President Biden's reelection campaign faces significant challenges as he confronts a range of problems, including the debt limit, the border crisis, and a foreign trip to Japan, Papua New Guinea, and Australia. Economists warn that the country faces a debilitating recession if Biden and lawmakers can't agree on a path to raising the debt limit. Meanwhile, the transition away from Title 42 has been anything but simple, and the U.S. is increasingly seeing migrants arrive at its Southern border who are from China, Ukraine, Haiti, Russia, and other nations far from Latin America.

President Biden's reelection campaign faces significant challenges as he confronts a range of problems, including the debt limit, the border crisis, and foreign policy issues. Economists warn that the country faces a debilitating recession if Biden and lawmakers can't agree on a path to raising the debt limit. Meanwhile, the transition away from Title 42 has been anything but simple, and the U.S. is increasingly seeing migrants arrive at its Southern border who are from China, Ukraine, Haiti, Russia, and other nations far from Latin America. Biden will try to marshal unity among Group of Seven leading democratic economies to maintain support for Ukraine as it prepares to launch a counteroffensive against Russia's invasion and to invigorate alliances in the face of China's forceful regional moves.

Biden's reelection prospects threatened by debt, border, and other challenges.

President Joe Biden is facing a series of daunting challenges that could pose a near-existential test of his path to a second term. These include a showdown with Congress over the debt limit, a frenzied scene at the border, and a pivotal foreign trip meant to sustain support for Ukraine and contain a more assertive China in the Indo-Pacific. Biden's ability to solve these problems is central to his argument for why he's best prepared for four more years in the White House. However, economists warn that the country faces a debilitating recession if Biden and lawmakers can't agree on a path to raising the debt limit.
