But according to Biden White House officials, Biden's campaign manager and Biden himself, he isn't going anywhere.

“I look forward to getting back on the campaign trail next week to continue exposing the threat of Donald Trump’s Project 2025 agenda while making the case for my own record and the vision that I have for America,” Biden said Friday morning.

"Absolutely the president is in this race, you've heard him say that time and time again... He is the best person to take on Donald Trump."

Joe Biden is his party’s nominee. He’s the President of the United States. He’s running for reelection. Baseless conjecture from anonymous sources isn’t a scoop. Tonight a convicted felon will talk about how he’ll make people’s lives worse if he gains power. Let’s focus. https://t.co/RZBb9k6g9d

Meanwhile, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is also backing Biden, a stance he's had in the weeks following the debate on June 27.
