State of the Union addresses come with interruptions these days and it’s hard to think of one that deserved interrupting more than this one.
We’re a long way from the “you lie” era. Biden’s speech, as I wrote in my article, was a massive deviation from normal SOTU protocol. It was an ugly campaign speech filled with attacks on Trump and Republicans.
Biden was however prepared for some shouts, but not others. He wasn’t prepared to be shouted at by the parents of a Gold Star Marine murdered in Afghanistan. He was however prepared to be confronted about the murder of Laken Riley, a young woman brutally slain by an illegal alien invader. And the deviation was revealing.
BREAKING: President Biden says "Lincoln Riley" after Marjorie Taylor Greene interrupts him and tells him to "say her name."
What Biden meant to say was "Laken Riley."

Biden was interrupted here by GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who shouted at him about Laken Riley, the Georgia nursing student killed, allegedly by an undocumented immigrant. It’s an incident that has driven claims that migrants are criminals.
Biden picked up a pin that read “Say Her Name Laken Riley” and directly addressed the parents of Laken Riley, who had been invited to the speech by a congressman.
“Lincoln (sic) Riley, an innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That’s right. But how many of the thousands of people being killed by illegals – to her parents, I say my heart goes out to you. Having lost children myself, I understand.”
This was obviously both prepared and off the cuff. It’s also revealing because the SOTU address was all framed in terms of contemporary political discourse. “I will not demonize immigrants saying they “poison the blood of our country” as he said in his own words,” Biden read off. And yet in the Laken Riley moment, Biden calls them “illegals” and mentions that she’s not the only one who was killed by illegal aliens.
The Left is attacking Biden over it. I find it infuriating because it’s political hypocrisy.
Some lefties genuinely believe the things they’re saying, Biden doesn’t. Caught off guard he defaults to talking about illegal aliens. He doesn’t actually believe that an open border will make America better. And he knows perfectly well that illegal alien crime is a serious problem. He’s keeping the border open even though he knows it’s a disaster because it’s what the party and what the movement want of him. And that’s the price of power.
Biden outsourced much of his administration to the Left to gain power. People are complaining that Biden betrayed Israel once the pressure mounted. Of course, he did. Betrayal Israel? The man betrayed America.
The Biden of 2024 has thrown out some 70% of the political views he used to have because they became politically inconvenient. People can argue about senility and dementia, but he knows enough to be able to mention that illegal aliens are killing Americans while doubling down on the policies that allow them to do it.
Great coverage, thanks Daniel! That’s the trick, get him off script, and he reveals opinions not prepared by his leftist handlers.
Yes Beijing Biden’s entire speech last night was a lying diatribe prepared by his handlers…….but he went off mike a few times and told the truth. He’s just too stupid to stay on script.
Thanks Jeff!!!!
“Policy sits above conscience.”
~ William Shakespeare
I’d recommend the phrase to the DNC as a party slogan, but that would require a conscience for policy to sit above.
Brilliant. How come Shakespeare was so brilliant?
Shakespeare was a funny looking guy but he sure could write. I especially like “Romeo and Juliet,” which seems fruity but that story is just so good. It’s “Moby Dick” and “Heart of Darkness” good. It’s as good as Philip Jose Farmer’s “World of Tiers” series. Even Roger Zelazny praised that series and he was one of the best authors ever.
Don’t you just love it when the left eats its own?
Biden is a morally corrupt depraved psychopath who has gone berserk.
Biden and the democrat party are obviously morally corrupt, and liars of the highest order.
Biden’s mind has always been, at a minimum, fundamentally morally defective.
Biden is the Nero of America.
And the democrat party has become totally morally corrupt, anti-democratic, authoritarian, depraved, psychopathic, and berserk.
The fact that Biden was elected president of the USA by the American electorate shows that at least half of the American electorate are depraved, psychopathic, berserk, morally corrupt, and mentally defective as well.
They are beyond any possibility of returning to sanity.
If my assessment of Biden, the democrat party, and half of the American electorate is true, then there is no possibility of turning America around.
America is solidly on its way to internal dissipation and dissolution at best.
Good people should focus on taking care of themselves, their family, and kindred spirits/friends.
The devil take the hindmost.
Do you really think he received 80+ million votes? The few million he received, not enough to legitimately win, is bad enough. Believing the current administration and their media seems very naive at this point.
Biden proves he is unfit for the job just like Kerry
sniffer/traitor joe & the alphabet a**holes, enemies of real Americans
