Biden is expected to deliver a speech near Valley Forge National Park, where George Washington's Continental Army spent a bitter winter encamped from 1777 to 1778, . 

Re-election staffers said Biden hopes to draw parallels between the site's historical significance and the riots at the US Capitol building exactly three years prior. 

“The president will make the case directly that democracy and freedom, two powerful ideas that united the 13 colonies and that generations throughout our nation’s history have fought and died for a stone’s throw from where he’ll be Saturday, remains central to the fight we’re in today,” deputy campaign manager Quentin Fulks told CNN.

After his Valley Forge appearance, the president will head down to Charleston, South Carolina, to speak at Mother Emanuel AME Church, the site of a 2015 mass shooting that killed nine, reports added.
