@Paiyslee This has been explained many times. Journalists often use President on the first reference and Mr. in later references. This was the 4th tweet in succession from this event I was covering. I used President Biden in the previous three. Nothing to see here. — PolitiTweet.org

Not every issue rises to the president's desk, govt agencies, offices act on issues all the time. The Biden WH challenge on baby formula is the dire nature and scale of this problem & still unanswered questions about who acted to address it before the president was briefed. — PolitiTweet.org

A second executive, Murray Kessler, tells the president he knew the Abbott closure would be a crisis "we could perceive that this was going to create a tremendous shortage, we significantly increased all our material orders." They increased production "full out" — PolitiTweet.org

"we knew from the very beginning this would be very serious ....they were trying to figure out how they can move quickly." — PolitiTweet.org

Kelly O'Donnell @KellyO

This will raise more questions: Mr Biden asked a baby formula executive if the industry anticipated the closure of Abbott plant would have this profound affect immediately? The answer from Robert Cleveland "we were aware of the general impact that this would have." — PolitiTweet.org

Briefing Room BTS. The global music stars each spoke briefly, only one member did so in English here. An interpreter helped convey their message to stop anti-Asian hate. They also had time with President Biden. @bts_bighit https://t.co/XLwnZ7cNqw — PolitiTweet.org

Sense of humor. New Zealand Prime Mininster @jacindaardern reacted to the steamy 90 degrees weather as she exited the West Wing and said dryly "jacket regrets." It's autumn back home. https://t.co/2Cjvm0gyao — PolitiTweet.org
