The bold, defiant claim comes amid rumors that high-ranking members of his own party are attempting to have him replaced as the nominee for the presidency as he runs for reelection this November.

The campaign aide, who spoke to The Associated Press under the condition of anonymity, revealed the nature of the phone call as three other insiders told the news agency that both the president and Vice President Kamala Harris made surprise appearances on another phone call the same day with the Democratic National Committee.

"I am running. I am the leader of the Democratic Party. No one is pushing me out," the top aide said, posting the comments on X. The other officials revealed that the later call with the Democratic National Committee was a pep talk, and it stressed the stakes of the election as members of the committee implored Biden to adhere to his comments after the disastrous debate last Thursday in which he said he would get back up after he was brutally knocked down by his rival, former President and Republican Donald Trump.
