Last week Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden managed to stay up late enough to give a 68 minute State of the Union speech.  You may have seen it –

Actually, it was not so much a speech as an angry rant, during which Old Joe did his impression of a clueless octogenarian yelling that all Republicans, MAGA supporters, or anyone else who objects to his totalitarian dictatorship should get off his lawn.  The speech started later than expected because of a traffic tie up on Pennsylvania Avenue, as a number of pro-Palestinian would-be martyrs sat in the road blocking it.  38 protestors were arrested.  Sadly, none were martyred.  Better luck next time.  When Biden arrived at the Capitol, and managed to get down the aisle, he proceeded to embark on an angry rant against Donald Trump, to whom he repeatedly referred as “my predecessor.”  This was remarkable, because the State of the Union address is supposed to be the Executive’s report to the Legislature regarding the state of the nation, focusing on the actions taken by the Executive in the preceding year, and the policies proposed for the upcoming year.  It’s true that the State of the Union message, as specified in the Constitution originally wasn’t an in person speech, but only a written report.  The advent of television transformed the annual event into the televised spectacle that it has become.  However, what the speech never was intended to be was a campaign speech by a candidate, nor was it intended to be a rant against one’s political opponent.  For this reason, a number of former presidential speech writers panned Biden’s performance.  Their assessments were damning. “This was the most partisan State of the Union I’ve heard in my lifetime.”  “No outreach to Republicans, and the clear message was this: the era of big government is back, with a vengeance.”  “An utter disgrace.”  “Attacking his opponent directly in the first minutes of his speech is unprecedented and perhaps the most partisan start to a State of the Union address in modern memory.” Biden’s address “sounded angry.”  “For its force, it depended upon him basically shouting and projecting outrage.”  The speech was “a laundry list of bad solutions for the problems he caused.” Another commentator said Biden spent the first half hour of the speech screaming uncontrollably, while intermittently coughing and slurring his words.  It was surreal and by far, the most unhinged and angriest State of the Union in history.  That would have been bad enough had the things Biden yelled about actually been true, but, Joe Biden being Joe Biden, the speech was a 68 minute tissue of lies, half-truths, and senile delusions.  Surprising no one, Leftists praised the speech, saying Biden was “fiery.”  Drug-addled was more like it.  Biden faulted Trump for failing to “talk tough” to Russia and China.  That’s a lie.  Trump not only talked, he acted on sanctions and tariffs that Biden lifted.  Biden said, “elect Democrats and I’ll restore Roe v. Wade.  I guess that means he plans to cancel the Supreme Court.  Biden claimed to have created 15 million new jobs.  That’s a lie.  Many people went “back” to work, the Democrats having shut down the economy in 2020.  In fact, fewer people are working today than in 2019.  Biden again claimed to have cut $1 trillion from the budget.  In fact, since 2021, the debt has risen by $7 trillion, and Biden proposes to spend another $7 trillion next year alone, adding another $3 trillion to the debt.  Biden said inflation is down.  As anyone who’s visited a food store can tell you, it’s really up more than 18%.  You’ll be happy to know that Biden thinks crime is down.  Someone better tell Governor Hochul she doesn’t need the National Guard in the subway.  Biden also claimed wages are up, while actually they’re down because of his inflation.  Old Joe has a plan for the economy though.  He plans to destroy it with a 25% tax on billionaire’s holdings, including unrealized gains.  In other words, if an investor buys a stock and its value increases, Biden wants 25% of the paper increase, even though the stock hasn’t been sold, and the price could go down tomorrow.  If enacted, and if it’s constitutional, which is a big if, it will destroy the stock market and end new investment in America.  Think Bill Clinton’s plan to tax US yacht builders to raise revenue.  They all went out of business, and now yachts are built in Italy.  But perhaps the most memorable moment of the speech was when Biden managed to anger the nuts in his own Party.  Marjorie Taylor Green challenged Biden to mention the killing in Georgia of Laken Riley, who was murdered by an illegal alien Venezuelan, whose previous criminal acts should have seen him deported or jailed.  Biden acknowledged that “Lincoln” Riley was “killed by an illegal.”  He went on to ask “How many are killed by legals?,” as though that’s a justification for murder.  Of course, Lincoln Riley was a former football coach at USC.  But what set off the Left was the word “illegal.” Anti-American Representative Ilhan Omar set the record straight, “Let me be clear:  No human being is illegal.”  Biden later apologized to the vicious Venezuelan killer, clarifying that he should have used the word, “undocumented.”  The clear message was that the real crime wasn’t the taking of an innocent young life, but the utterance of a disapproved word.  Brain damage.  Democrats have come up with an even dumber word for the illegal alien invaders, “newcomers.”  Why didn’t somebody think of that sooner?  Imagine the effect on history.  Rome, 410 A.D., the Visigoths sack the City, killing, raping, and enslaving its citizens.  “Visigoth is an ugly word.  We’ll call them newcomers.”  The Abbott of an 8th Century English monestery, “Look at those Vikings swinging those big swords.  Hey guys, it’s newcomers!”  Pearl Harbor 1941, “All those planes have red meatballs on them.  Must be newcomers.”  Is it any wonder Joe Biden is delusional?  At least he’s 81, the younger “progressives” have no excuse.  As usual, Donald Trump was best at summing up Biden’s disgraceful performance last week.  “He was angry, mentally disturbed, and misrepresenting a lot of the facts concerning almost every subject he discussed.”  “But he got through it.  He is still breathing, and they didn’t have to carry him out in a straight jacket.”  “Other than that, I think he did a terrible job.”  I devoutly hope most Americans got the same message.
