Q Is the Saudi foreign minister lying, President Biden?

The Saudi foreign minister says he didn't hear you accuse the Crown Prince of Khashoggi's murder. Is he telling the truth?

THE PRESIDENT: No.

Q Do you regret the fist bump, Mr. President?

THE PRESIDENT: Why don't you guys talk about something that matters? I'm happy to answer a question that matters.

Q Will inflation go down from here, Mr. President?

THE PRESIDENT: I'm hoping. We'll know in the next few weeks.

Q President Biden, will you be honoring your campaign pledge to release all the marijuana inmates in prison?

THE PRESIDENT: I don't think there should - I don't think anyone in pri- - anyone should be in prison for the use of marijuana. We're working on the Crime Bill now.

Thank you.
