Summary In his first address to a joint session of Congress, President Joe Biden got some facts wrong and stretched others, mainly repeated claims we’ve heard before:

Biden said he inherited the “worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.” But when he took office, the economy had recovered some from its low point earlier in the pandemic.

He repeated the debunked claim that he had “traveled over 17,000 miles” with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Biden referred to the American Jobs Plan creating “millions of jobs” and generating “trillions of dollars in economic growth.” The jobs estimate is accurate, but economic growth projections are mixed...

Biden's SOU repeated the claim that he had “traveled over 17,000 miles” with Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Yeah, sure.....as Biden sucked up to Xi 24/7.......making lucrative deals for the Biden Crime Family.

"Xi, old buddy, ol' pal, together we will make China great again."

And Joe Stolen continues to overpromise and underperform.

Which may be a blessing in disguise. After all, Executive Orders are pretty flimsy instruments of law, subject to being overturned in any number of ways, and virtually unenforceable if they are too extreme.

One-party passage of legislative initiatives are also subject to being overturned , sometimes with the very next session of a new Congress.

And what is this “We” in the “We are the Government” BS Joe is putting out there? There is no “We” without half the electorate being against the whole program.

Muscle is one thing. Performance is something else entirely.

What he said is not true except for the democrat party members.
Joe Biden says intel agencies determined white supremacy ‘most lethal terrorist threat to our homeland today’
