Biden to speak about 'Soul of the Nation' in Philadelphia speech

President Joe Biden will travel to Philadelphia on Thursday to "deliver a primetime speech on the continued battle for the Soul of the Nation," according to a White House statement Monday.

"Soul of the Nation" is a phrase he has used in the past to describe the fight for democracy in the face of what he's labeled as "extreme" opponents.

At a Democratic fundraising event in Maryland last week, the president denounced former President Donald Trump's philosophy as "semi-fascism."

Biden's speech Thursday will take place outside Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was debated and approved and, later, the U.S. Constitution was written.
