Updated with Buttigieg’s comments: Pete Buttigieg, in endorsing Joe Biden on Monday, told reporters that he was “looking for a leader. I am looking for a president who will draw out what is best in each of us.”
“He is someone of such extraordinary kindness and grace,” he said.
He was joined by Biden, who compared Buttigieg to his late son, Beau.
“I look over at Pete during the debates and I think, ‘You know, that’s a Beau,’ because he has such enormous character, such intellectual capacity and such a commitment to other people. I can’t tell you how much it means to me that he would step up and endorse me.”
Biden was holding a rally later on Monday, where Amy Klobuchar was expected to appear along with another former presidential candidate, Beto O’Rourke.

You and I may never get access to the classified 6,700-page Senate Intelligence Committee report on the CIA’s use of torture in the War on Terror, and many are just as unlikely to read the 525-page executive summary released to the public in 2014.
But with “The Report,” writer-director Scott Z. Burns’ adrenalized dramatization of the CIA’s gravely ill-conceived actions and the rigor and righteousness with which Senate staffer Daniel Jones (Adam Driver) unearthed its harrowing details, two hours is enough intake time to convince anyone that the quest for accountability in government is as necessary as ever.
Though it premiered at Sundance in January, “The Report” is likely to hold even more significance to news-savvy audiences now, what with impeachment hearings in the wake of a whistleblower’s accusation of presidential wrongdoing. The movie might need that headline-adjacent curiosity from audiences, too: For all the ways Burns has condensed...

Colorado Democratic Sen. Mark Udall has a hope-y change-y idea for toning down the discord in Washington: he wants to seat Republicans and Democrats together at this year's State of the Union speech. In keeping with tradition, Democrats and Republicans sit on opposite sides during the Sotu, making for wonderful television moments where one side stands and cheers as the other side sits on their hands and remain stone-faced.
