The White House announced a press lid at 11:46 a.m. on Monday, indicating we likely won’t hear anything more from President Biden after news broke that nine Americans were killed in the horrific attacks carried out by Hamas against the nation of Israel.
The White House has called a lid before noon.
We do not expect to see or hear from President Biden for the rest of the day.

A National Security spox made a statement Monday morning.
“We extend our deepest condolences to the victims and to the families of all those affected and wish those injured a speedy recovery. We continue to monitor the situation closely and remain in touch with our Israeli partners, particularly the local authorities.”
Biden was blasted over the weekend for attending a White House BBQ with live music while Israelis —and American citizens —were killed in the brutal attack.
“While Hamas holds Americans hostage, Joe Biden is enjoying a picnic with a live band,” Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley tweeted, accompanied by a screenshot of a White House Pool report.
