2024 State of the Union Updates and Reactions
It’s way past his bedtime.
Well, I don’t know about updates, but I’ll add some reactions. I’m watching baseball, and that takes priority over everything.

Threaten SCOTUS
Biden basically threatens the Supreme Court justices to their faces over abortion and struggles to read the teleprompter while doing it.

Economy
Biden brags "wages keep going up" (real earnings are down 2.1% under Biden) and "inflation keeps coming down" (overall prices are up nearly 18% under Biden).
"Bidenomics" is a FAILURE! pic.twitter.com/6p8NbHGmOc

What a prick!
Well, he’s consistent if nothing else.
Why does he not bleed?
There’s not enough turd polish in the universe
He’s really JUICED!
He’s shouting! And the rabid Democrats are raving!
I bet the lid will be on the White House all of tomorrow and the weekend… imagine the letdown. The Dems in Congress tonight are more energetic than North Koreans during a Kim celebration…. for the same reason.
No Democrat wants to be the first one to stop clapping.
My immediate impression, too. Tuned in only occasionally to see if he had imploded yet, so only saw bits of it. What I saw and heard was a pasty faced, squinty eyed, thin lipped old man waving his hands while going back and forth between scolding, raised voice, hand waving rants, and pledges to give something away interspersed with comments about this place, or people, or something called America.
Don’t know what they had him on, but today is probably going to be a real downer.
What a liar!
full get off my lawn mode
The Constitutional oath means nothing to Democrats. So it’s no surprise that FJB doesn’t follow Article II, Section 3 (“He shall from time to time give to the Congress information of the state of the union”).
But if he gave a truthful account of the state of the union it would be dark and pathetic.
So that’s why Brandon is dark! LGB.
Biden is “zoomy”.
When I think zumie I think of energetic German shepherds. If there is one thing that Biden is not, it’s energetic.
Beyond VItamalt….
Vitameatavegamin.
The healthy choice for demented wackjobs and sundowners!
Joe prefers the Real Glycerin Vibrafoam.
Funny you should mention German Shepard. My Parents had them throughout my childhood. When I retired from the Army in ’15 I had two Mastiff and a Cane Corso /Bulldog mix all have since passed away.
Some a-hole dropped a German Pointer off at a road junction a couple miles from my house and being a softy for dogs I took him in. So I went from having dogs being laid back and taking naps to.a dog with near constant energy/play drive.
You love it! 😉
I love dogs and I do enjoy playing and training them as well as just hanging out with them and watching their antics.
What I don’t love so much is this lovable guy getting all up in my grits when I am outside working. Had to teach him about catching a Kong frisbee to distract him and wear him out before I start. That works for maybe 45 minutes of work then we ‘must’ play again. Once he started the frisbee it is as if it cures cancer, he would play with it until he passed out from exhaustion. The guy can catch though, like the dog version of Randy Moss.
Most of my dogs have been semi-laid back, usually rescues. The current two are both half Jack Russell.
Not sure ‘laid back’ would apply to most Jack Russell Terrier.
Mastiff as a breed are super laid back (not lazy). They generally don’t bark b/c they ain’t scared of most things other dogs are. They are instinctively protective doing a lot of simple things other breeds must be trained to do. They patrol the perimeter of their domain and move between their human(s) and anything they can’t rule out as a potential threat using their size to block and intimidate.
If you have children a Mastiff is a great choice as combo companion animal and protection. Not a whole lot of folks want to mess with a 150+ lbs female or 180+lbs male Mastiff once they see them and when they do decide to angry/warning bark it sounds like a thunder clap before the end of the world.
Not so laid back are they?
Jack Russell have no “off” switch.
A few years back I was unloading the truck from the passenger door side and turned around to be face to face with a momma moose and her new calf… oh boy…. into the cab and close the door! A little while later I drove down to the PO and there were the cow and calf… and shock of shocks… 5 dogs. Usually dogs go nuts but moose and dogs were sooooo laid back. Everybody was cool. Wow.
I get it Leslie,, I would have used juiced.. Zoomies happen after a dog has a bath and runs around like a nutter… It is kinda sweet.. a fluffy wet dog.. That was an angry old man, on drugs.. at least I thought so. The madness of King Lear comes to mind…
I was thinking Caine Mutiny; “where’s my ice cream?!”
The strawberries, the strawberries!
Nor to mention grinding his balls.
‘….solved it with geometric logic..’
Tone deaf people, out of touch, pushing a fake narrative with fake enthusiasm.
Tone deaf = brain dead in this case.
If Traitor Joe is fit enough to deliver this speech tonight, tell me again why Hur doesn’t charge Joe to stand trial?
Exactly…x1000
Sorry, but I refrain from commenting due to the Goldwater Rule.
Catch-46.
I can smell the Adderall from here.
What in hell does IVF have to do with abortion, or “reproductive rights?”
They are polar opposites. Clearly, he can only hump abortion enthusiasm, because there is nothing else. How is he going to “restore R v W? Another errrant EO?
And political riots? BLM? Pantifa? Hoards of Hamas lickers?
And he talks about taking away freedom?? Tell it to the J6 political prisoners.
All that white looks like a Dem Klan meeting…
He has the gall to talk about crime??? Comeback story? You mean stopping the left’s suppression of our economy and education (and not just during the “pandemic”).
Who blew up the inflation rate? EO Joe.
Consumer confidence goes in the toilet every time they go to the super market. Joe sold out to the ChiComs, but talks about American jobs.
Has he mentioned the deficit yet? How about the upcoming electric grid crashes?
He is really trying to steal the pro America theme from Pres. Trump.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little….
Alabama Supreme CT ruled that embryos created for IVF are legal persons under Bama law (we banned abortion). The ruling was not nearly what the leftist are playing it up to be. It centered on the question of the deliberate destruction of embryos and the pro abortion leftists are using that to scare folks.
Somehow, I knew it would be about infanticide in one form or another.
Well, yes, you are correct.
But by making no differentiation between a mere fertilized egg and one implanted in a (real woman’s or (it’ll eventually happen) artificial uterus) the court made IVF as it’s done now illegal. Currently the procedure consists of fertilizing multiple harvested eggs and then selecting one or more that looks viable for implantation, flushing or freezing the rest (frozen ones eventually to be donated to another wanabe mom or also flushed when money to keep them frozen runs out.).
Further, most Morning After Pills work by making the any fertilized egg unable to implant in the uterus. So this ruling makes MAPs illegal if all abortions are illegal.
Not quite. The morning after pill aka plan B work by preventing/delaying ovulation so there’s no fertilization taking place and thus no embryo.. Those are fine in Alabama.
The other sort such as using RU486 after fertilization are prohibited in Alabama. The key distinction is if the method/medication functions as a contraceptive, if so then totes legal in Alabama.
The IVF ruling in Alabama does prohibit the intentional destruction of embryos so if the process is to use a.shotgun method and grab X number of fertilized eggs (an embryo), choose one or two for implantation and then purposefully destroy the remaining embryos that’s what the CT ruled against.
I would note that the Alabama Legislature is making adjustments to clarify that IVF procedures are exempted from criminal and civil liability. Both the Alabama House and Senate passed companion legislation and it is going to the Gov for.signature.
Women’s health research? What is a woman?
Dylan Mulvaney?
And then you woke up (pun intended)!
Well… Dylan Mulvaney is positive he is a woman, and Ketanji Brown Jackson is positive she isn’t a woman, or at least unqualified to make that distinction.
Is it any wonder that people are confused?
Oooh! I know, I know. Pick me! In other words, I live in the real world.
$400/month for mortgages for 2 years??? Where is the money coming for that?
The pockets of the productive.
Traitor Joe inherited the “Obama Stash”.
Printing presses.
That’s not a State of the Union address. That’s a campaign speech. A bad one, I grant you, but one nonetheless.
Every station should be required to give the opposition equal time.
Threatening SCOTUS was a particularly stupid move. A certain subset of voters might like it but SCOTUS is likely to hand him his arse from now on.
I don’t know. They aren’t the most courageous bunch
With the exception of Justices Thomas and Alito, yeah.
The House should charge his campaign for use of the facilities for a campaign speech. Won’t go anywhere but still . . .
“Every station should be required to give the opposition equal time.”
Tucker’s live rebuttal included soliciting extended commentary from Victor Davis Hansen and (*fanfare*) Alex Jones. Refreshing.
I’m always amazed when he promises all these bread and circuses as if he can deliver them at his whim, and when morons buy it.
The problem is, they aren’t “buying it,” they are being bought.
Oh hell, he just admitted there are illegals.
He’ll pay for that one.
Nothing gets you in trouble in DC faster than the truth
Essentially, an anger-filled campaign speech.

Biden – “You Know the Thing” Remix
Thanks for that. Lifted spirits this morning.
Democrats are delusional about more than Trump. Biden is a superhero!
Robert Gates shaking his head.
And our founding fathers rolling in their graves.
He overdosed on something because Biden is YELLING!
Did he ever once say MAGA?
Hmm. I don’t think so. Maybe it would remind us of his “predecessor” and the pro America message Biden was desperate to steal last night.
Well, that exactly describes the senile, demented, retarded pedophile I expected
Please cover Katie Britt’s rebuttal to the SOTU as well. We know the Dem shill media won’t do it the way they heavily covered all of the rebuttals to Trump SOTUs.
But while Democrat Nancy Pelosi ripped up Trump’s address on camera, Republican Mike Johnson sat behind Joe and nodded along with his maniacal infatuation for propping up Ukraine.
I’m always hesitant to describe these kinds of speeches as ‘The most….’ whatever. But in all honesty, I can’t remember a more strident, divisive State of the Union than this one. It was angry, needlessly combative, poorly delivered and generally abrasive in way that is foreign to this speech, historically.
Because that’s who he is, and has been his entire career.
Biden has always been an angry, slimy, petty, mean, downright STUPID little jerk his entire career. Whenever forced to interact with the stupid unwashed masses, his first impulse on being challenged is to personally attack them and in many cases like a coward challenge them to a fight that he knows he’ll be protected from (it’s well known that without the Secret Service he would have received at least a dozen asskickings over the years).
This is who Biden is, and has been for decades.
I believe that anger is also a symptom of dementia.
Dementia and drug abuse. Because drugs are all that’s been keeping Joe going this last 3½ years.
Is there a “Dr. Jill” in the house?
Exactly! He has ALWAYS been a nasty, vindictive prick and a moron and everyone who’s spent more than 3 minutes with him has known it. All of Washington has known it for decades.
He looks confused, as if he is unsure if he should beat the shoe on the table, answer it or eat it.
I’m stealing this.
Could only stand 5 minutes of this leftist drivel.
Every leftist desire, abortion, voting rights, green energy, on and on.
The coughing and anger.
Not fit for prime time nor the presidency.
Go away Joe, you bother me.
Florida’s U.S. Senator Marco Rubio described this speech in 7 words:
“It was a proof of life speech.”
WTFF?? I bet Traitor Joe thought that was clever as it was trying to punch its way past his dentures … I guess this is some senile, retarded way of trying to express the laughable dem lie that illegals are more civilized and law abiding than Americans.
Of course, the murder spree by American criminals that’s been unleashed on us is also due to the insane, nihilistic dem “policies” that are designed to destroy civil society.
And it’s interesting how Traitor Joe has reduced Americans to just “legals”. Sort of the same as “illegals” .. only differing by two letters.
Meanwhile, inside Traitor Joe’s pea-brain (what’s left of it after his surgeries):
“You’re not an ‘American’. You’re just a ‘legal’. That’s all you are. And if I win re-election you won’t even be that!”
“Legals.” Wow. A new word to add to the vile Dhimmi-crats’ ever-expanding and moronic propaganda lexicon.
Leftspeak or Demspeak.
And, such fallacious and idiotic “logic,” besides. The point that crime boss/dotard, Biden, and the Dhimmi-crats are too stupid to comprehend is that any crime committed by an illegal alien wouldn’t have occurred in the first place, but for the illegal’s presence in the U.S., which presence has been facilitated by the Dhimmi-crats.
Crime committed by U.S. citizens is unavoidable, broadly speaking, but, of course, even with respect to that phenomenon, the Dhimmi-crats toil mightily to enable and coddle domestic criminal, via their soft-on-crime policies and vilification of law enforcement.
And if we have that much “legal” crime, why do we need to get more via invaders from other countries.
Wait until the Biden Border Terrorists start acting up in this country.
Duh…b/c diversity is our strength. /s
Yeah, when it comes to people “killed by guns,” all of a sudden their whine is, “if it saves just one life…!”
Let me see if I can summarize the general themes:
–All you normal people are going to get all kinds of goodies from us, from student loans paid off to mortgage freebies to free drugs.
–All you rich people are going to get your money taken away from you to pay for all the poor people getting money.
–Anybody coming across the border is going to get all these goodies too.
–We’re going to loot the pharmaceutical companies for billions of dollars.
–We’re going to send billions of dollars to Ukraine and it won’t cost a cent.
–Anybody who speaks out against us is an Enemy of the State, a J6 fanatic, and will be locked up forever.
–Orange man bad.
Whatever meds they had him on were lit. Put that concoction into any disposable race horse in the country and they’ll win by miles. I just hope that kind of chemical cocktail doesn’t damage him any more than he is already.
Not seeing a bad thing if they do
How could we tell?
Not me. I hope it explodes his hemorrhoid, burns out his brain, and chars his eyes.
Red Sox lost to Atlanta three to two.
Season starts soon!
I didn’t watch the fool. Why put
Myself through that cringe worthy POS. I can’t stand his voice to begin with and the added volume level is nails on a blackboard. If Jill is really running things from behind the curtain’s, she’s dumber than he is. I agree with the previous poster, if he’s lucid enough to talk for an hour, he’s lucid enough to be charged in the classified documents case. The d’s are so desperate that I have a real fear of some deadly shenanigans they will foment as the October surprise. And there is no way Jill will allow him to debate. FJB
If this is the State of the Union, we are screwed.
State of Panic
Wages are prices.
Trump, last night in a now deleted tweet…
https://twitter.com/tracybeanz/status/1766067014823469160
Joe Biden had one of the worst hours of his presidency. So, how do Republicans respond? Well, Trump sent out an absolutely bizarre (since deleted) tweet congratulating himself for the Covid ‘vaccine and then the GOP picked the younger, female version of Richard Shelby to give an absolutely cringe-worthy response to Biden’s address. Great job guys.
Off all the people the GOP could have picked – like Greg Abbott or Ken Paxton – they instead pick a little girl who’s bought and paid for by corporate interests who has never fought a battle in the culture war, much less won one. If any group of people could lose to Biden & Harris again, it’s this group of people.
Correction: It appears the posting from Trump may (unbelievably) actually still be up at TruthSocial. I don’t have TruthSocial, so I can’t say for certain.
Yah.
This didn’t happen.
Trump doesn’t tweet.
His account is active again–he CAN tweet, but he doesn’t. So if Trump had tweeted ANYTHING last night, even that weird thing you cited, it would be headline news that pushed the SoTU right off the front page.
Lolz. It’s still up at Truth Social, moron.

I though Sen Britt provided a nice contrast to Biden in both form and substance. Putting up a 40 year old female Senator from Alabama to deliver the rebuttal from her kitchen was IMO very smart. The choice seemed to be trying to broaden the base by working to show indy/soft GoP female voters that the GoP ain’t just ‘scary, white male extremists’ but also women who worry about kitchen table issues and have a career, an education and children who can ID the various problems we face.
Britt was invited to deliver the rebuttal to attract the suburban housewife voting bloc that Trump lost hands down in 2020. She was nervous at the start of her talk, but I thought she recovered and came across as strong and forceful. I liked her.
much more composed than Rubio when he had the task of doing the rebuttal
Angry old man yells at the clouds. Tell America they must bar someone from running and being elected by the voters to save Democracy while filing lawsuits to make sure he is the only one on his primary ballots
He reminded me of the great emancipator, Abraham Laken.
Joe is more like the Great Macerator.
The speech was a long incoherent rant by an angry old man-think of Archie Bunker on steroids-and was red meat for the Democratic base. It was nowhere near a State of the Union Address which is traditionally bipartisan sppech and definitely an embarassment to anyone familiar with American history when compared to such great presidential addresses as those of FDR, JFK and Lincoln.
It was an embarrassing partisan rant where an elderly man with a poor memory tries to pass-off his failures as accomplishments.
The speech was what the Democrat base needed to hear. The media will lap it up like to good propagandists they are. The speech wasn’t for us or anyone else capable of rubbing two functioning brain cells together.
And of course he managed to not completely fall off the stage like the dementia sufferer he is. So Democrats will take that as a win 😂
But he is worried about paying a price if he loses in November as all the news this morning was about Biden warning his vote counters what will happen to them if they lose and how great a threat Trump is to their “democracy”.
Did anyone else notice that everything he promised was the job of Congress and not his? He has no power to do the things he claimed he was going to do. How about curing cancer? What an asshole! I watched the rebuttal and was disappointed. We needed someone to refute all of the lies he told not talk about the kitchen table. She is an honest conservative but it was his speech that we had just heard and the lies in it should have been listed and rebuked!
Alex Jones on Tucker addressed this point specifically — “They want to tell SO many lies that you don’t have time to counter them all. Because it would take five hours to counter all that.”
