As had been the case for over 100 years, the Speaker of the House has invited the President of the United States to deliver a speech to a joint session of Congress. Tonight, Joe Biden is expected to deliver remarks about: -the economy (it’s better than you think!) -democracy (it’s good!) -abortion (it’s healthcare!) -the US-Mexico border (it’s complicated!) -the war in Ukraine (it’s bad!) -the conflict in Israel (it’s bad, but for different reasons!) The Republican rebuttal will be delivered in English by Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) and in Spanish by Rep. Monica de la Cruz (R-TX), and there will probably be a rebuttal to that be the Working Families Party delivered by a notable leftist. As this is a phone-post, YouTube embeds are kind of a pain to do, so I will update this OP when I get a good link. You can always watch the SOTU on all the major networks.

God bless all of you in this thread tonight, toiling directly within the spin machine, mining the hot air to make the ultimate decision of whether a Biden bon mot was proof that he is still competent or a grossly rehearsed pre-fab line that proves his senility o7

What does MTG's shirt say? I see "say her name" but I missed the probably infuriating punchline.

I swear I just saw George Santos. Did someone invite him? Edit: nm, they just explained that since he’s not yet convicted he still gets to show up, somehow. Electric Sugar fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Mar 8, 2024 |

I don't know what speech you guys are watching because he's mangling a word every minute or so and looks really, really old. The energy is there but the speech is lagging behind a lot.

Yeah, a few times. The Republicans are making a concerted effort to not applaud anything, even stuff that they should really like.

The opposition party Speaker basically always has to play “I hate you and everything you say” politics but Johnson definitely has a particular “I don’t want to go to church, Mom!” energy. His name is Johnson, right? I’m only 50/50 on that.

Lol Johnson can't even clap for "We should buy American and help American businesses.". Maybe he would have cheered if Biden supported Russian businesses.
