President Barack Obama will hold a press conference at the White House on Wednesday afternoon, press secretary Josh Earnest announced on Twitter.
The president will speak in the East Room of the White House at 2:50 p.m., according to a White House notice. The regular press briefing, originally scheduled for 1 p.m., has been canceled.
The president will most likely address the midterm election results, which provided a major blow to Democrats as Republicans took control of the Senate and made gains in the House.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who won reelection on Tuesday and will become majority leader next year in the Republican-controlled Senate, will hold a press conference at 2 p.m. The Kentucky Republican will be speaking at the McConnell Center at the University of Louisville less than an hour before Obama is scheduled to speak.

I’ll be watching Bayern Munich.
Biggest winner? Nope, that won’t happen while BHO still controls our foreign policy.
Watch how the US abstains on the Security Council vote on admitting the Paleostinian Authority as a member state of the UN - the ultimate stab in the back (so far). AFAIK, he has already threatened BiBi with this action.
My personal favorite from Jonah’s excellent piece:
“His speeches are like whale sounds, but with less substance.”
Oh to live to really know joy.
LOL
I hope he blames election fraud so we can have a REAL investigation of election fraud.
“I look forward to working with Leader McConnell to pass legislation that will help America’s least fortunate.”
“Oh, and by the way, I have signed an Executive Order giving a pathway to citizenship to all of the undocumented foreign-born residents of this country.”
“Got to go, can’t be late for tee time.”
Step'n will show up 3:25ish.
But he's always fashionably late.
“The president, who somehow was never apprised of the implosion of the rollout, nor kept in the loop as the NSA spied on everybody with a pulse–but who still insists on his godlike power to indefinitely detain and murder anybody he pleases–is the ne plus ultra in Baby Boomer wish fulfillment narcissism, where all credit for good accrues to him and all responsibility for bad is due to Mean People who threaten his self esteem.”
The only thing that we can say definitively about this press conference before it happens is that Obama will lie. If he were smart, he would wait another day to gather his wits and let the dust settle just a little, but he isn’t and never has been very smart.
He will claim that he will participate in a new bipartisanship, as long as the repubs agree wiith his agenda than he will work, other than that he will be golfing.
2:50? Where did they come up with that time?
It’s OK though. The last ten minutes of the Rush Limbaugh Show IS filled with Commercials anyway. LOL
First he heard about the world hating him was on the news just like us?
His appearance needs to be boycotted by the press — that would be funny — ‘cause they are off chasing after Republicans! LOL! Wishing.............
Taking bet as to how late he will be.
