  • Di Leo: A Dose of Reality, and A State of the Union in Disrepair

    Illinois Review ^ | March 8, AD 2024 | John F. Di Leo
    It is 2024, and the State of the Union is broken. It’s been that way for a while, frankly, but the Biden-Harris regime has sped up the process. Every year, a man stands before Congress and delivers a State of the Union Address, as the Constitution requires; sometimes it feels like that’s the only constitutional requirement they obey in their entire term. They cheer the good things, as they see them, and they attack the things they consider bad. Then they often either disregard the most serious threats entirely, or they blame them on their political opponents. And all too...

    Here’s the definitive list of Biden’s biggest State of the Union falsehoods. President Biden has been known to tell some pretty outrageous lies throughout his political career. So, it came as no surprise when Ol’ Sleepy Joe spewed out more than a few whoppers during his State of the Union address on Thursday. From foreign policy to the economy, there was almost no subject in which the president didn’t lie to the American people. In case you missed his dumpster fire speech, here’s the definitive list of Biden’s biggest SOTU falsehoods. 1. Sending Money To Ukraine Biden claimed that Republicans...

    CNN — President Joe Biden delivered his annual State of the Union address on Thursday. His statements were mostly accurate, a CNN fact check found, but he also made a smattering of claims that were false, misleading or lacking key context. Biden repeated his familiar misleading boast about how he had supposedly reduced the federal budget deficit, failing to explain that the decline overwhelmingly occurred because emergency pandemic spending from President Donald Trump’s tenure expired as schedule. He falsely claimed that “not anymore” would big companies be able to pay no federal income tax, overstating the impact of the 15%...
  • Joe Biden to propose massive tax raid on super rich and corporate America in tonight's State of the Union address with sweeping hikes including minimum corporate tax up from 15% to 21% and a 25% rate for billionaires

    President Joe Biden plans to launch a raid on the super rich, hiking taxes for corporations and billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. White House officials said the steps were part of a proposed 2025 budget to be released next week, and aimed at reducing the federal deficit by $3 trillion over 10 years. The tax plans are expected to form a core part of Biden's re-election campaign, contrasting markedly with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, whose 2017 'Tax Cuts and Jobs Act' slashed taxes on companies and the wealthy.
  • ***LIVE THREAD*** Joe Biden’s SOTU Address to Tout Alleged Success of ‘Bidenomics’ 9:00 pm ET

    President Joe Biden will reportedly brag during his State of the Union address on Thursday about the alleged success of “Bidenomics,” a term coined by the Biden administration to put a bow on the president’s economic agenda. If Biden does boast about his alleged economic success, it could come across as tone-deaf for Americans struggling to afford necessities. As citizens suffer from prices about 20 percent higher across the board since Biden assumed office, most taxpayers believe Biden’s economic policies will cause prices to rise, a recent YouGov poll found. Only 17 percent think his policies will make prices fall.

    NewsBusters ^ | 3/7/2024 | Joseph Vazquez
    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...

    Katie Britt, a first-term Republican senator from Alabama, has been selected by party leadership to deliver the GOP response to President Biden's State of the Union address Thursday. "Americans are struggling amid a border catastrophe, crushing inflation, an increasingly dangerous world, and fears about a President not up to the task. Against this backdrop, Senator Katie Britt will share her incredible story as the first woman elected to the United States Senate from the state of Alabama," said Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., in a statement. "As the only current Republican mom of school-aged kids serving in the Senate, Katie is...

    Back due to popular demand and “tremendous success – beating All Records” last year, President Trump is providing another play-by-play of Biden’s State of The Union Address tomorrow. Biden will address a Joint Session of Congress at the United States Capitol tomorrow at 9 PM ET. The Gateway Pundit reported on Trump’s response last year, where he slammed Joe Biden for allowing “millions and millions of illegal aliens from 160 different countries” to storm across our southern border and drug cartels to make record profits off of human and drug trafficking and killing the American people. Trump also slammed Biden...

    CV NEWS FEED // First Lady Jill Biden invited Kate Cox, a Texas woman who unsuccessfully sued the state over its pro-life legislation, to President Joe Biden’s March State of the Union Address. “The first lady invited Kate to join her as a guest at the State of the Union and Kate accepted,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a Wednesday press conference. Jean-Pierre added that the first lady and President Biden both “thanked [Cox] for her courage in sharing her story and speaking out about the impact of the extreme abortion ban in Texas.” The Press Secretary...

    Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, I-Ariz., believes Republicans who shouted at President Biden during his State of the Union speech Tuesday are "beneath the dignity" of Congress. "Everyone is raucous, and I was worried people were going to start throwing hotdogs and popcorn at each other," Sinema said during a Washington Post Live event of many Republicans who heckled Biden's speech to Congress. "To be honest, I find it beneath the dignity of the United States Congress. And what I find most disturbing about it, is the fact that it’s normalized." During Biden's address, he claimed that Republicans want to sunset Medicare...

    The Constitution requires that a president deliver a State of the Union address to Congress once a year. Since we have a fraudulent occupant in the Oval Office at the moment, it is perhaps not surprising that his take on the State of the Union is equally false. The actual state of the union, today, is much darker, much more vulnerable, than most people want to admit. And in our hearts, we all know it. What is the state of the union today, in 2023? The federal government is joining with the corrupt local administrators of dozens of America’s big...

    ​Rock star Bono, the ​family of Tyre Nichols, the man who disarmed a mass shooter in California last month and the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are among those who will watch President Biden’s State of the Union address from first lady Jill Biden’s box Tuesday night. “Each of these individuals were invited by the White House because they personify issues or themes to be addressed by the president in his speech, or they embody the Biden-Harris Administration’s policies at work for the American people,” the White House said in a statement Tuesday. Second gentleman Doug Emhoff will...

    President Biden plans to use his State of the Union address on Tuesday to build on his “unity agenda” by calling on Congress to help him crack down on the influx of fentanyl coming into the U.S. and help tackle the mental health crisis by banning targeted advertising online for children. The four pillars of the agenda laid out in his first State of the Union in March 2022 include ending cancer as we know it, delivering on obligations to veterans, tackling the mental health crisis and beating the opioid and overdose epidemic. Biden on Tuesday plans to call on...
