Biden's State of the Union address is a masterpiece of statesmanship not seen here since FDR: Stunned MAGA scoundrels sit frozen in the ice of their own hatred and cultist degradation;
The incredible shrinking MAGA Mike, hiding behind a desk as GOP crimes are denounced in tour de force; President targets fascism abroad by aiding Ukraine and fascism at home with sharp attacks on Trump aka "My predecessor";
Swedish Prime Minister Kristersson is present in chamber to mark first day of Stockholm's membership in North Atlantic Pact, a great success in Biden's diplomacy; House must now approve Senate supplemental military aid appropriation for Ukraine and other allies;
Subtext is FDR's last peacetime State of the Union on January 6 1941, when he challenged Congress to put aside the delusions of isolationism and accept responsibility for defeating the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis by providing the sinews of war to Britain, Free French, and Free China under Lend Lease; FDR designated US goals as the Four Freedoms: Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, Freedom from Fear and Freedom from Want!
Biden lays out comprehensive domestic reform agenda including wiping out child poverty by restoring child tax credit-made possible by 25% alternative minimum tax on billionaires; Initiatives to lower costs for families and categorical pledges to stop MAGA from tampering with Social Security, Obamacare, and price reductions on prescriptions;
Biden refutes MAGA-media lie that he is mentally unfit by repeatedly vanquishing the Republicans in heated polemical exchanges; Indignation grows over New York Times' monomaniacal obsession with themes of Biden's age; How NYT-Siena polls distort reality by pushing alleged senility: these are not polls, not journalism, but a blatant anti-Biden agenda of the Red Tsumani school;
Hapless Sen. Britt gives MAGA reply, appearing as breathless and lurid melodramatic ham actress in low-quality high school production; Her histrionic technique depended on hissing stage whispers she hoped would convey sincerity, but did the opposite; Her remarks delivered in kitchen seen as insult to women; Serious questions about the truth of her human trafficking narrative;
Veepstakes: Britt and Stefanik ask voters if they were better off now or 3-4 years ago; Answer is vehement yes to now, considering the 18-wheeler refrigerator trucks loaded with cadavers of covid victims parked outside US hospitals as Trump preached bleach injections and minimized the pandemic with the lethal doctrine of herd immunity; Greatest single indictment of Trump presidency
lies in hundreds of thousands of needless American deaths caused by his incompetence and cynical dishonesty -- compared to which a few points of inflation are nothing;
Democrats massively encouraged by success of President as contest for White House is just beginning, while Orange Tyrant faces first New York criminal trial on March 25!
@MichaelTalon Are we talking W or Drumpf? Can't tell from just this toot.

@MichaelTalon Agreed, FB is pushing all right wing stuff including Fox, porn bots, all of it in everyone's feed without them agreeing. Happening in my feed everday.
@jonathon_green I haven't seen any right wing crap on my FB yet.
@MichaelTalon Then you are lucky so far. All my friends got it happening in their feeds.
As US air drops of humanitarian supplies into Gaza continue, Biden orders creation of sea terminal as destination of maritime supply corridor, reviving great US tradition of logistical prowess seen in 1944 Mulberry docks in Normandy and epic 1948 Berlin airlift;
