UPDATED with latest: President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address drew an estimated 27.3 million viewers, a drop of 29% from last year, according to Nielsen.
That figure is the lowest audience for a SOTU in at least 30 years, according to Nielsen records. Biden’s 2021 speech to a joint session of Congress drew 26.9 million, but that event, coming just a couple months into his presidency, was not an official State of the Union speech.
The Nielsen figures were measurements of 16 TV networks. Last year, 38.2 million watched across 16 networks.
I fell asleep during Biden’s “speech”. I woke up at the very end… and decided I had missed nothing. My dog was happy to go to bed…lol.
Link? Anything??? Hjjjj
Stupid as the day is long.
Why would you care as you cannot comprehend what’s in the article.
What is the definition of a “boomer”? I don’t think you know
The sociopath with fake girlfriends and fake friends disguised with fake accounts exhibits more self delusional behavior and assertions. Go look at the sites stats, you didn’t top anything here which means people are tired of your high school posts such as your continued retread of “Vernon Jones” nonsense because your garbage mind can’t think of anything else original. And yes I am intellectually smarter than you because I don’t have to post fake shit like you do here, instead I actually put effort and thought into posts but thanks for letting on more of your insecurities for the world to see.
Go ahead write a thesis followed with supporting statements! I know you won’t because you can’t nor have the mental capacity to do so!
Grace us with your next literary classic!
Maybe you should focused on improving your writing skills instead of living an imaginary life here on the internet all the time! Nothing you post here is intelligent as others here agree with that assessment!
You must like abuse lol … you should have stayed down lol
I don’t know what the morons are clapping and cheering at.
It’s just a bunch of BS and bad jokes.
And you must like speaking stupid into thinking you are smart! Give yourself another like because no one else here is doing it!
Ohh ok governor Vernon Jones
The Topic: The SOTU speech. You bring nothing to this site except your bruised ego and extremism.

Just days after a Chinese spy balloon spent an entire week floating over the heads of Americans before finally being shot down, President Biden had an opportunity to send China a strong message in his State of the Union address. Unfortunately, the president once again chose not to lead.
Instead, he put issues like climate change, abortion and the Junk Fee Protection Act ahead of even mentioning China. The president’s apologists, like Sen. Chuck Schumer, have claimed Biden’s focus was on “the average working family and their concerns, their dreams, their hopes.”
This completely misses the point: Nothing presents a greater external threat to American families than the actions of the Chinese Communist Party.
Take the opioid epidemic that has ravaged our country for years. While conveniently leaving out that his own administration’s failures are to blame for our porous southern border, Biden did manage to acknowledge it must be better secured if we are to stop the flow of deadly fentanyl into our towns and communities.
We should be clear, though: The opioid crisis does not begin in Mexico. It begins in China.
A record amount of fentanyl entered the US in 2022.
The Mexican cartels smuggling record amounts of fentanyl into the United States are only able to produce their products because they import the necessary precursor compounds from China. American families, especially those who have been affected by the fentanyl epidemic, deserve to know this. They deserve leaders who will stand up to Xi Jinping and fight for them. Yet Biden chose to make empty promises.
The president also discussed social media and its effect on our children, stressing the need for Congress to ensure our children’s data aren’t being harvested and their mental health isn’t being harmed by apps on their phones. Again, though, Biden missed the point: The greatest social-media threat to our children is TikTok, owned and operated by Chinese company ByteDance.
China’s National Intelligence Law, enacted in July 2017, established the “obligation” for Chinese citizens and companies to support and assist in work pertaining to national intelligence. As a former secretary of state and CIA director, I can assure you the CCP has already demanded private data collected by TikTok and will continue to demand it.
A recent “60 Minutes” report also laid out the stark differences between the American and Chinese versions of the app. While China’s version contains a setting for children that presents educational and patriotic videos and is limited to just 40 minutes of use daily, the American version has no limits unless the user voluntarily selects them. Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita recently sued TikTok, saying the app exposes children to “drug and alcohol use, nudity and intense profanity.”
Biden has refused to support banning TikTok, despite pressure to do so.
Biden has refused to support banning TikTok — indeed, he has even invited popular TikTok “influencers” to the White House to spread his administration’s agenda. More than 30 million American children have TikTok on their phones; American parents deserve to know the threat the CCP poses to their children. Biden didn’t even address it in his remarks.
Finally, there is the spy balloon, which Biden hardly mentioned. Just as he didn’t account for his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, which resulted in 13 American service members being killed, and his failure to deter Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine until it was too late, Biden once again failed to give the American people an explanation as to why a Chinese spy balloon, first detected off Alaska Jan. 28, was allowed to traverse US airspace and float over sensitive military sites for an entire week before finally being shot down.
Biden may have feigned toughness by saying, “If China threatens our sovereignty, we will act to protect our country.” But nothing about his actions remotely suggests to Xi that America is serious about defending its interests.
America’s greatest leaders, from George Washington to Ronald Reagan, understood that weakness breeds aggression. By showing deference to our adversaries rather than establishing deterrence, President Biden has sent a message of weakness to the Chinese Communist Party.
The American people deserved to hear the truth about the threat the CCP poses to all of us; Biden’s State of the Union failed to deliver.
Mike Pompeo is a former United States secretary of State.
So much to think about except your laser focused on your lack of knowledge replacing it with stupid comments:
As a first-term senator from Delaware, Joe Biden introduced a bill that would sunset all federal programs — including Social Security — every four years, a policy goal that he attacked “some Republicans” for during his State of the Union address Tuesday night.
The legislation Biden put forward in the Senate back in July 1975, when, like now, the US economy was in a nosedive, would have terminated “all provisions of law” which allow “new budget authority for a period of more than four fiscal years,” the congressional record shows.
The Biden sunset provisions would have applied to the defense budget, and entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare.
“It requires every program to be looked at freshly at least once every four years. The examination is not just of the increased cost of the program, but of the worthiness of the entire program,” Biden, then 32, said of his fiscal crunch bill in 1975.
President Joe Biden claimed Republicans were aiming to end Social Security and Medicare during his State of the Union Tuesday evening.
Ironically, in his speech introducing the legislation back then, Biden — who last year pushed through the $739 billion government spending package he called the Inflation Reduction Act — went on to lament the “staggering” size of the federal budget and the “rate that it is increasing.”
The following decade, on at least three separate occasions, then-Sen. Biden would advocate freezing all federal spending.
In 1984, citing the “upward march of interest rates and inflation,” Biden supported a spending freeze. He argued that the American people “are not stupid,” and would support a freeze as well.
Also in 1984, Biden supported an amendment offered by Sen. Paul Tsongas (D-Mass.) linking an increase in the debt limit to a freeze on all federal spending.
“My mother says there is nothing like looking over the precipice to focus one’s attention,” Biden said at the time of the nation’s rising debt obligations.
Biden supported efforts to freeze or sunset federal programs at least four times as a senator.
When the amendment was withdrawn by Tsongas, Biden voted against raising the debt ceiling.
The following year, Biden proposed freezing all federal spending for two years, arguing during a floor speech that “If the President again submits an outrageous budget, Congress should give serious consideration to an immediate across-the-board freeze for the next two years in federal spending and a two-year suspension of tax indexing.”

Leading up to President Biden’s State of the Union speech, reporters speculated about how much time, if any, he would give to the Southwest border crisis. The answer is now known. From his one hour, 12 minutes, and 40 seconds-long speech – the eighth-longest SOU address of the last 60 years, and exceeded only by President Bill Clinton, four times, and President Donald Trump, three times, Biden spent about 60 seconds on his open border debacle.
Some analysts said that the brief one-minute reference proved that Biden is indifferent to America’s eroded sovereignty that the border chaos created. Others claimed that the border mess is too embarrassing for Biden to acknowledge, and the less he said, the better for him, and his fellow Democrats.
At about the one-hour mark, Biden launched his foray into immigration. Biden shouted out: “America’s border problems won’t be fixed until Congress acts.” He then spoke more specifically about the direction in which he wants Congress to act. “If we don’t pass my comprehensive immigration reform, at least pass my plan to provide the equipment and officers to secure the border and a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers, those on temporary status, farm workers, [and] essential workers.”
Biden followed the well-traveled path that immigration expansionists have long trekked. Whatever problem society might face, the solution today, yesterday, and always is comprehensive immigration reform that includes citizenship. But granting amnesty to an unknown total of illegal immigrants already residing in the U.S. has no relationship to the sovereign-busting open border.
Amnesty doesn’t equate to a secure border. More to the point, no one on Capitol Hill knows the precise illegal immigrant total living within the interior. Estimates range from 12 million to 30 million. Illegal aliens have to be unlucky to get deported under Biden and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed 72,177 illegal immigrants in FY 2022, slightly more than the 59,011 deported in FY 2021. That number in turn marked a sharp drop from the 185,884 deported in FY 20, and 267,258 in FY 2019.
Biden may want to dismiss the border, or he may be satisfied that his welcome-the-world policy is correct. But the reality is that under Mayorkas, border agents have processed and release more than five million aliens into the interior. Another million or so migrants, called gotaways, have slipped past agents, and are roaming among the general population. No one is certain of their identities, their intentions or their current whereabout. No one is looking for them either, and if they’re located, ICE cannot, as per a Mayorkas memo, deport them.
Mayorkas does not have the constitutional authority to rewrite settled immigration laws, but in the Biden administration, legality in immigration law is inconsequential. The only thing Biden and Mayorkas know about immigration laws is that they refuse to enforce them.
The illegal alien border surge will cost U.S. taxpayers $100 billion, and counting. The $100 billion is the open border’s dollar cost. But the human cost, disregarded by Biden and Mayorkas is tragic. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wrote that over 150 people die every day from overdoses related to synthetic opioids like fentanyl. Drug cartels have taken advantage of the open border to traffic fentanyl, and have built a multi-billion business around their deadly drug.
In his Spanish-language rebuttal, Mexico-born U.S. Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-Ariz.) said: “In my home county in Southern Arizona, fentanyl overdoses are the number one cause of death among young people — outpacing car crashes.”
A post-SOTU good news, bad news summary: amnesty has no chance to pass in the 118th Congress, but the nation will have to endure another two years of the lawless Biden administration, and its determination to destroy historic America.
I gave you the rules, you still refuse to post a summary, and a link. You just copy and paste you’re a low iq ill informed poster. A real troll.
You won’t write a summary because you’re not intelligent. Thank god fools like you are a small population of this country. No one cares about your weird political views.
F-uck you and your asshat attitude and inability to read and comprehend. If you had half a clue every article has links. YOU are typical of the uniformed right wing Rumpers clueless, uninformed and basically low IQ stupid.

In his State of the Union address last night, dishonest Joe Biden took another disgraceful cheap shot at Republicans by deceitfully claiming that Republicans wanted to “sunset” Social Security and Medicare. The ensuing uproar led him to pause his speech and claim that only a few Republicans wanted to do that… no, actually only one… contact his office for a copy of the proposal. He then continued his presentation of lies and distortions misrepresented as an accurate picture of the state of our Union.
Most politicians recognize that the Social Security and Medicare programs are a “third rail” of politics, and those who seek to challenge or reform the programs do so at their peril. The sad fact, though, is that these programs will die on their own, unless something is done soon.
The Democrats politicize any attempt at reform as Republicans trying to kill the programs, and use that dishonest message to drum up support. Rather than seeking ways to preserve the intent of the programs with viable solutions, they prefer to do nothing and let Republicans take the blame when these programs ultimately collapse. The fake solutions the Democrats propose are more of the tired old clichés they have used in the past - “make the rich pay their fair share”, and “raise taxes on greedy corporations”.
Most of us have been paying into Social Security for all our working lives, myself included. As a beneficiary of the programs, you can say I have a vested interest in their continuation. That is true, but as things stand, they will not continue for much longer unless things change. Republicans seem to be the only ones trying to do something positive about the situation, while Democrats sit on the sidelines and snipe at them and make unrealistic proposals that make good sound bites but destructive policy.
Built on lies
It doesn’t help matters that the Social Security program was founded on a lie, and continues to promote the same. It was presented as a type of insurance program where each worker would have a type of pension account managed by the government to provide for them when they retired. The reality, supported by a court case, is that the individual account is just an accounting trick, and that no individual has any claim on their contributions made over their working lives. The money paid to Social Security is used to fund current government programs, and the benefits paid to retirees come from current taxes. Essentially, it is a government instituted Ponzi scheme.
Therein lies the root of the problem. Unlike private pension plans that use worker contributions to make investments that will ultimately generate the wealth to support retirement payments, the government program is a spend as you go approach. Both programs depend on having enough taxpayer dollars available to meet obligations. That relies, in turn, on having enough taxpayers available to pay for the scheme. Unfortunately, there won’t be.
Republicans have been working for some time to come up with viable alternatives that would provide equivalent benefits to current Social Security recipients, would ensure financial solvency for the future, and would eliminate the burden on current and future taxpayers. Several plans have been proposed, with at least one that meets all criteria. Unfortunately, these plans have largely been rejected by Democrats.
The big problem for many is that by removing the Social Security and Medicare programs from government control, they remove the money received in Social Security payments from the general fund. Removing these tax receipts reduces tax revenues that can be used for other projects while keeping the expenditures disguised as contributions to Social Security. This would expose many Democrat pet projects as the boondoggles and pork programs they are. In addition to reducing funding for pet projects, an effective program would preclude the ability to blame Republicans for failing to address the problems. Truly a non-starter.
Democrat solutions
Actually, it isn’t fair to say that Democrats don’t propose solutions to save Social Security and Medicare. Most of their proposals, though, involve raising taxes and increasing government intervention. When Republicans naturally resist these proposals, they are accused of not wanting to implement “common sense” solutions, and just want to put profits before people. It would be helpful if Democrats devoted as much effort to working with Republicans to come up with real solutions as they put into coming up with derogatory slogans
Besides the false claims about Republicans and Social Security, the Presumptive President went on to provide copious additional misinformation. He commented that he had reduced inflation. True, it is now merely unconscionable instead of impossible, so I suppose he is justified in that statement.
He did claim he created 12 million jobs during his tenure, although 9,3 million of those were restoration of jobs lost during his Covid lockdowns, so only 2.7 million were new, representing a sub anemic average net growth of less than 26,000 jobs nationally per month in the last two years.
His solution to illegal immigration was to reform immigration rules so that anyone coming across would no longer be considered illegal. That is a solution, of sorts, I suppose.
He expressed pride in his economically destructive efforts to eliminate the use of oil under the false assumption that would somehow eliminate climate change. Unfortunately, reductions in fossil fuel use are unlikely to have any significant effect on a changing climate, but will have huge negative effects on nearly every aspect of our lives and livelihoods, including reducing our ability to adapt to and mitigate any effects of climate change.
Somehow he managed to blame Covid for the huge increases in crime in Blue cities, while ignoring the efforts of Democrats to defund police departments in those same cities. Cause and effect - what are you talking about? Everyone knows that police create crime. If there were no police to arrest anyone, there wouldn’t be any crime.
He proceeded throughout his rant to cast aspersions on Republicans and conservatives, referring to pro-life people as “extremists”, and bringing out the debunked idea that the January 6 protesters were insurrectionists who were the greatest threat to our country since the Civil War, instead of loyal patriots exercising their First Amendment rights to petition the government for fair and honest elections. But then, he had the podium so he could speak any falsehood he wished.
Of course, he reiterated his desire to make the country safe for autocrats by abolishing automatic weapons. What would he ban next? Bows and arrows? Rocks?
He ended with his usual claim that he was the President for all, although he wasn’t clear if that included all China, all Iran, or perhaps all Ukraine.
Elections have consequences, especially dishonest elections.
You’re mad because you just don’t get it.
YOU HAVE TO ADD A SUMMARY !
