From Monday…
Reports have shown progress in lowering inflation. But I know families are struggling, and we have more to do.
— President Biden (@POTUS) July 1, 2024
I will keep fighting to lower housing and health care costs, and call on big corporations to pass their savings along to consumers.
It’s time America got a better deal.
— President Biden (@POTUS) July 1, 2024
My Administration is hard at work to lower surprise travel junk fees, saving folks over half a billion dollars every year in airline fees.
Really not a lot to say here, you can view the things the admin has done in past Biden’s Bits or at White House.gov.
Supreme Court’s Presidential Immunity Tweets

Remarks by President Biden on the Supreme Court’s Immunity Ruling; the YouTube is 4 minutes and 53 seconds long.
Each of us is equal before the law. No one is above it – not even a president.
— President Biden (@POTUS) July 2, 2024
With today’s Supreme Court decision on Presidential immunity, there are now virtually no limits on what a president can do.
That is a new, dangerous precedent.
This nation was founded on the principle that there are no kings in America. Each — each of us is equal before the law. No one — no one is above the law, not even the president of the United States.
With today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed. For all — for all practical purposes, today’s decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a president can do.
This is a fundamentally new principle, and it’s a dangerous precedent because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law, even including the Supreme Court of the United States. The only limits will be self-imposed by the president alone.

The Supreme Court has decided that it will be the character of the men and women who hold the presidency that will define its limits – not the law.

From Tuesday…
With this week's Supreme Court decision, it will be the character of the men and women who hold the Presidency that will define its limits – not the law.
— President Biden (@POTUS) July 2, 2024
I know I will respect the limits of a president’s power.
But any president will now be free not to.
You know, at the outset of our nation, it was the character of George Washington, our first president, that defined the presidency. He believed power was limited, not absolute, and that power would always reside with the people — always.
Now, over 200 years later, with today’s Supreme Court decision, once again it will depend on the character of the men and women who hold that presidency that are going to define the limits of the power of the presidency, because the law will no longer do it.
I know I will respect the limits of the presidential power, as I have for three and a half years. But any president, including Donald Trump, will now be free to ignore the law.
