Warren, who ended her own bid for the White House last month, gives Biden his third major endorsement of the week. Biden’s chief rival, US Senator Bernie Sanders, endorsed him on Monday after suspending his campaign last week, while former President Barack Obama backed Biden on Tuesday. In recent weeks, the more moderate Biden has made overtures to liberal backers of Sanders and Warren. Biden and Warren have had several calls since she ended her campaign, a source familiar with the discussions told Reuters. US Representative Adam Schiff from California, who played a prominent role in Trump’s impeachment proceedings, also backed Biden on Wednesday.
