Fact check: When did Joe Biden's presidency officially end?

1. Summary of the results

The analyses provided do not offer a unanimous answer to when Joe Biden's presidency officially ended. Some sources suggest that his term may have ended or will end soon, citing his endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic candidate and his call for Supreme Court term limits ^{[1] [2] [3]}. However, these sources do not provide a specific end date. In contrast, one source explicitly states that Joe Biden's presidency ended on January 20, 2025, with the second inauguration of Donald Trump ^[4]. Other sources do not mention the end date of his presidency, instead focusing on his actions during his term or providing general information about his presidency ^{[5] [6]}. Key points to note are the lack of a clear end date in most sources and the implication of an upcoming change in presidency.

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

• The sources provided do not offer a clear, consistent answer to when Joe Biden's presidency officially ended, with most sources implying an end date without specifying it ^{[1] [2] [3]}.
• An important piece of context missing from the original statement is the current date, which would help clarify whether Joe Biden's presidency has indeed ended or is still ongoing ^[4].
• Alternative viewpoints are presented, with one source suggesting a very specific end date (January 20, 2025) tied to the inauguration of another president ^[4], while others do not provide such specifics, instead focusing on the actions and policies of the Biden administration ^{[5] [6]}.
• The implication of a presidential election and the involvement of other political figures (like Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump) adds complexity to understanding the timeline of Joe Biden's presidency ^{[1] [4]}.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original statement's simplicity ("When did Joe Biden's presidency officially end?") belies the complexity of the information provided by the analyses. Potential misinformation arises from the assumption that Joe Biden's presidency has ended, as not all sources confirm this, and some imply it will end in the future ^{[1] [2] [3]}. The source that explicitly states an end date (January 20, 2025) could be seen as providing misinformation if this date is not accurate ^[4]. Bias could be present in how sources frame the end of Joe Biden's presidency, with some sources potentially benefiting from portraying his presidency as ending (e.g., to promote a successor or a different political agenda) ^{[1] [4]}. Conversely, sources that do not specify an end date may be avoiding speculation or awaiting official confirmation, which could be seen as a more neutral stance ^{[2] [3] [5] [6]}.
