Another State of the Union address is upon us! As frightening as that may be to hear, it is important for the American people to hear from the president and find out about all the things that have been accomplished in the last year. Here are the top accomplishments Biden covered during his speech: Creation of several brand new words: This will be accomplished just during the speech itself. Finalization of the Louisiana Purchase: He will announce he hammered out the deal with Napoleon last week. The Mexico-Egypt border has been totally secured and there are no problems down there...

This writer often wishes he had the luxury of being a ribbons and roses prophecy person. The kind of message that promises nothing but God’s blessing, full restoration of everything lost, and the return of the good times, has always been the stuff of false prophets and those who will not take responsibility for the truth. I don’t care to face God one day, with only a flimsy explanation for why I did not do, the one thing God called me to do in this life. All the political pundits will cover the SOTU with razor sharp scrutiny. They won’t...

Just WOW: Biden's DAMNING Hot Mic Moment After SOTU Shows What He REALLY Thinks About Israel (Watch) ------------------------------------------ Biden said a lot of things last night during his SOTU. We think. Let us rephrase that. Biden YELLED a lot of things last night, and one of his bumper sticker talking points was about Israel and how he would make sure American hostages come home yadda yadda yadda. Oh sure, he also bragged about putting boots on the ground to build a port for Gaza to get aid (even though he said there would be no boots on the ground) and...

Ex-CNN reporter John Harwood gushes over sharply partisan address: Biden critics 'look pretty dumb' Liberal-leaning journalists and media personalities gave President Biden's State of the Union speech high praise, with some claiming that it made his detractors look foolish for voicing concerns over his age. Former CNN journalist John Harwood, known as one of the most sycophantic Biden White House boosters in the media, mocked the president's critics for saying they were worried about his vitality. "[T]hose Dems complaining that Biden lacks vigor and fight getting splash of cold water in the face right now," he wrote, later adding that...

Video at link. RFK jr response to the State of the Union.

Well, that was a weird 70 minutes. Truthfully, I knew exactly what I was getting into when I sat down to watch the State of the Union Address last night. The set-up had been telegraphed: Biden would come out, possibly drugged up, and go overboard trying to sell himself as vigorous and feisty. The media was prepared to run with it, as were all the social media mouthpieces. Within minutes of the start of the speech, legions of left-wing journos would be tweeting and posting about how "Sleepy Joe" came to play ball, how "Dark Brandon" is ready to rumble,...

the worsening border crisis, especially in the aftermath of the tragic death of 22-year-old Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, at the hands of 26-year-old illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Ibarra. Riley's murder has sparked a national outcry and fresh debate over the Biden border crisis, with his critics pointing to her case as just one of all too many examples where illegal immigrants take advantage of Biden's lax policies as well as those in Democrat-run sanctuary cities, and end up victimizing people in the process. ... Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who posted a video on Twitter showing how the Biden...

President Joe Biden jokingly told Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) at the State of the Union Thursday night that he sometimes wishes he “was cognitively impaired” as commander in chief. A whopping 64 percent of voters believe Biden is not mentally fit, Quinnipiac polling recently found. “I sometimes wish I was cognitively impaired,” Biden told Nadler on the House floor after the State of the Union speech. Biden’s comment was in response to Nadler, who told the president that his aggressive and partisan speech put rumors to bed about Biden’s mental fitness: Jerry Nadler: No one's gonna call you cognitively impaired...

Immediately following President Biden’s State of the Union Address Thursday night, CNN’s band of liberal anchors (Jake Tapper, Dana Bash, and Abby Phillip) praised his attacks on former President Trump, his “fight,” and tried to do damage control for his plethora of senior moments. Tapper made sure to tout how Biden alluded to Trump 13 times (ABC counted 16) during the address. Once he quickly exhausted all the nice things he had to say, Tapper awkwardly pivoted to trying to downplay Biden’s bumbling, stumbling, and disgraceful mispronunciation of Laken Riley’s name (the young college student Biden’s open border policies killed)...

Bad optics for the censorious Regime.. Last Updated on March 7, 2024 Steve Nikoui, the father of fallen Marine Kareem Nikoui, interrupted Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Thursday night. The man’s son, Lance Corporal Kareem Nikoui, was among 13 U.S. military servicemen who died during Joe Biden’s disastrous “Abbey Gate” pullout from Afghanistan. A terrorist attack felled the American troops at a Kabul airport named for Hamid Karzai, the Bush administration’s puppet leader of Afghanistan after the U.S. invasion. The Capitol Police confirmed that they arrested Nikoui. Steve Nikoui attended the event as the guest of Florida...

Claim: Biden claimed that the U.S. economy was on the brink of disaster when he took office. “I inherited an economy that was on the brink. Now our economy is the envy of the world!” Biden said. Verdict: False. President Biden inherited an economy that was strongly rebounding from the pandemic. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the economy grew at an annual rate of 4.3 percent. In the prior quarter, it had grown at an annual rate of 33.1 percent, as the economy whipsawed from lockdown to reopening. As Biden took office, in the first quarter of 2021, the...

Claim: President Joe Biden claimed during Thursday’s State of the Union address that he created a “record” 15 million new jobs. Verdict: Misleading. Jobs are up only five million since the pre-coronavirus pandemic economy. Biden claimed: Turning setback into comeback. That’s America! I inherited an economy that was on the brink. Now our economy is the envy of the world! 15 million new jobs in just three years – that’s a record! Unemployment at 50-year lows. At the employment rate peak in February 2020, pre-coronavirus pandemic, there were over 152 million jobs. Now, under Biden, there are 157.7 million jobs....

One thing’s for sure: Smokin’ Joe Biden came out punching Thursday night in his campaign rally – oops, State of the Union address. That is, when Biden finally got to the House chamber after dissing assembled members of Congress and a national audience by leaving the White House right when he was to enter the Capitol. Then rudely breached protocol by tromping all over the speaker’s time-honored, bipartisanship-building privilege of introducing the chief executive. But those acts of contempt were nothing compared to 68 minutes of diatribe, disputation, deception, and most important, divisiveness then unleashed by America’s counterfeit commander-in-chief. Let’s...

WASHINGTON (AP) — It was what the Republicans demanded, but never expected. President Joe Biden said her name. “Laken Riley.” Even before Biden started speaking, the topic of border security was certain to rise as one of the most tense moments in the State of the Union address. Biden was confronted as he walked into the House chamber by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the hardline Republican, decked out in a red Trump MAGA hat and a t-shirt emblazoned with the message, which was also on a button she pressed into his hand. “Say her name,” it said, the phrase evoking...

Let’s Get Ready To Mumble, State Of The Union

State Of The Union Disaster

Biden attacked his "predecessor" on abortion, immigration, Russia, gun control and COVID during his State of the Union address and even criticized the Supreme Court justices who were sitting in the chamber ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ President Biden substituted a fiery campaign speech attacking his 2024 opponent Donald Trump for the State of the Union address on Thursday evening, drawing derision and eye-rolls from Republicans in Congress. Biden attacked Trump without mentioning his name — referring to him as his "predecessor" — on abortion, immigration, Russia, gun control and COVID-19 during his third State of the Union and also criticized the Supreme Court...

President Joe Biden set aside immigration, inflation and crime to lead his 2024 State of the Union speech with a trio of issues that hardly register in polls of the American people. During the first ten minutes of his 2024 State of the Union address, Biden spent his time discussing the war in Ukraine and the Jan. 6 Capitol riot before moving on to discuss the COVID-19 pandemic. At least an hour after the president was scheduled to take the podium, he finally touched on concerns about his age, the southern border crisis and answered the growing calls to say...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) donned a Make America Great Again hat and shirt honoring slain Georgia nursing student Laken Riley as Biden delivered his State of the Union address Thursday. Democrats, led by Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.), demanded that Greene remove the hat before Biden, 81, entered the chamber, but the Georgia Republican refused. ... “Say her name. Laken Riley,” read the T-shirt Greene wore under her bright red blazer. The congresswoman also pinned two buttons on her blazer – a “Say her name” one, and another with a photo of Riley. ... “Utter disrespect,” she said in a...

Apparently, The New Yorker isn’t confident President Joe Biden is capable of selling his atrocious economic policies on his own, so it has chosen to offer a propagandist’s helping hand by acting as his speech writer. New Yorker staff writer John Cassidy’s March 5 piece of drivel — “What Biden Should Say About the Economy During the State of the Union” — was literally a script written in Biden's voice to provide the president a template for how to effectively hoodwink the public into believing Biden’s economy to be anything other than the disaster it has been. “With the President’s...
