“President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will travel to Surfside, Florida, on Thursday to visit the site of a deadly condominium tower collapse. Biden told reporters of the upcoming trip as he boarded Marine One on Tuesday morning, en route to Wisconsin. Search and rescue operations continue at the site, north of Miami Beach, five days after the 12-story Champlain Towers South condominium tower collapsed suddenly early Thursday morning. As of Tuesday, eleven people were confirmed dead and 150 were unaccounted for, according to local officials. The White House previously said Biden would wait to visit Surfside until he was certain that the security and logistics that accompany a presidential visit would not interrupt the search, rescue and recovery efforts underway at the Champlain Towers” – CNBC.
