America Faces No Greater Threat Than Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Their Assault to Our Borders Is As Great As Their Assault to Free Speech and Free Elections

HOW MANY TIMES A DAY DOES JOE BIDEN LIE? FOR HOW MANY DECADES? - Fact Check: Biden Claims ‘Unlawful Migration’ Dropped by 97 Percent
Is it all that different from his open borders policies, where millions of unvetted foreign migrants are flooding into this country without authorization, bringing crime, drugs, and costs, yet there too nothing is done about it? Joe offers an absurd excuse for that decision, as well claiming that all migrants who can utter the magic word 'asylum' are entitled to a free ride inside the U.S. for years or more, amounting to an all-expenses paid trip for thousands.

Biden Sabotaged State of the Union With Too Many Lies
Many viewers sitting through Biden’s State of the Union address noted his rushed delivery. I wrote, “His pathetic rant, breathy, rushed, angry.”
One reason for the rushed delivery is that he was trying to get in too many lies.
Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday set the record for most words spoken at a such a speech in six decades, beating the former lead by just one word.
Biden spoke 9,191 words, which is one more word than then-President Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union, according to a count
Too many words and too many lies.
If Biden’s people hadn’t insisted on shoving so much stuff into his State of the Union address, he could have delivered it more effectively and in a more measured fashion.
And if Biden wasn’t acting like a puppet, he would have told the speechwriters to cut some material so he could deliver it more effectively.

POTUS vows to protect American sovereignty after letting Chinese spy balloon traverse entire country
President Joe Biden's second State of the Union address was his first with a Republican majority in the House, which is probably why he began the speech by touting his belief in bipartisan cooperation. It was also his last State of the Union address before the 2024 campaign season gets underway, which explains his conflicting efforts to pick fights with Republicans while attempting to channel the populist spirit of his former (and potentially future) political adversary Donald Trump.
Tuesday's speech offered a preview of Biden's soon-to-be-announced reelection campaign, waving the banner of bipartisanship like a matador's cape. He urged Republicans to help him build on the "historic" progress of his first two years in office, when Democrats controlled both houses of Congress.
"To my Republican friends, if we could work together in the last Congress, there's no reason we can't work together and find consensus on important things in this Congress as well," Biden said. "Let's finish the job."
Knowing full well that such bipartisan cooperation is unlikely to materialize—as evidenced by the repeated jeers from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) and others—Biden's "finish the job" refrain is best understood as an appeal to American voters to reelect him in 2024 and restore Democratic power in Congress so they can enact their controversial agenda without Republican support.
Biden delivered his address to Congress with the confidence of a president who has the luxury of forgoing the bitter primary fight Republicans are about to wage against themselves. He positioned himself as a sensible moderate, standing above the fray. "The people sent us a clear message," he said. "Fighting for the sake of the fighting, power for the sake of power, conflict for the sake of conflict, gets us nowhere."
It's a message that presumably polls well, along with some of Biden's other proposals that might be described as soft-core Trumpism. Making the country great again by reviving the manufacturing sector and increasing our consumption of domestic goods. Taking on "powerful interests" while protecting Social Security and Medicare. Restoring national "pride" as part of a "blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America" that invests in "places and people that have been forgotten," while promising not to raise taxes on the Democratic Party's base of urban professionals making between $300,000 and $400,000 a year. "Americans are tired of being played for suckers," he said.
Biden won the 2020 Democratic primary in part because he refused to entertain the thought that professional pundits and other left-wing activists knew anything about what normal Americans actually want. That doesn't mean he is actually a sensible moderate who stands above the fray and tells it like it is. Contrary to what he claimed in his speech, inflation is not "coming down." (Its growth has merely slowed.)
COVID-19 didn't harm a generation of American children by keeping schools closed on his watch. Democratic politicians and their union allies did that. American concerns about rising crime are unlikely to be assuaged by blaming the pandemic. It's mathematically impossible to reduce the deficit over the long term while hiking spending on all the goodies Democrats want to fund. It's unclear how letting a Chinese spy balloon traverse the country is protecting America's "sovereignty."
We have a long year and a half ahead of us. Polling suggests most Americans, including most Democrats, don't want Biden to run again. Nevertheless, the Democratic Party lacked a viable alternative to the first octogenarian president in U.S. history, and Biden refused to step aside. Now they're stuck with him. And unless Republicans get their act together, we are too.
President Biden’s third State of the Union address will center on the theme "finish the job," according to White House talking points obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
"President Biden ran for office for three main reasons: to rebuild the backbone of the country, to unite the country and to restore the soul of the nation. In the State of the Union, he’ll say that we need to finish the job," the document reads.
The eight talking points focus on a variety of areas where Biden is pledging to "finish the job," including rebuilding the economy, building clean energy, and combating gun violence. The outline notes that the step mother of Tyre Nicholas, whose recent death caused a wave of anti-police protests, will join First Lady Jill Biden as a guest at tonight’s speech.
The president will also discuss how his administration can "invest in America" without cutting runaway entitlement spending "by finally making the largest corporations and wealthiest Americans begin [to] pay their fair share."
The outline suggests that Biden’s third State of the Union will focus less on partisan differences than some of his previous addresses. The president is widely expected to announce that he will seek reelection in the coming weeks, and many are viewing this speech as an unofficial kickoff of his 2024 campaign.
The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

Fact Check: Biden Claims ‘Unlawful Migration’ Dropped by 97 Percent

CLAIM: President Joe Biden claimed to have cut “unlawful” migration by 97 percent.
VERDICT: Mostly False
Joe Biden used his State of the Union speech to claim he has gotten the U.S. border back under control, saying, “Since we launched our new border plan last month, unlawful migration from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela has come down 97 percent.”
Biden’s narrow focus on just four countries in one month obscures his larger record of encouraging massive illegal migration through a variety of quasi-legal loopholes and programs.
The claimed reduction for the four countries ignores the many other national populations that Biden is allowing easy access into the United States, where they are given “parole” or unfettered access to U.S. jobs while they maintain years-long requests for asylum.
The claim also ignores Biden’s creation of a hidden “parole pathway” that is importing at least 50,000 economic migrants per month into the jobs needed by Americans who have seen their wages and opportunities decline for many years. That pipeline includes 30,000 people from the four countries.
That massive pipeline alone — without any of the waived-through illegals — can boost the delivery of job-seeking migrants into the United States by at least 60 percent above the roughly one million set by Congress in 1990.
Overall, Biden’s doorways are adding almost one migrant for every American who turns 18 each year, or almost three times the level set by Congress’s laws in 1990.
That Biden-engineered inflation of the labor supply will help investors and Wall Street by cutting market wages for Americans and by driving up the market price of the housing needed by young Americans and American families.
The Los Angeles Timesdescribed on February 5 how one Cuban was whisked through the new parole pipeline into the U.S. job market:
HAVANA — In barely a week, 25-year-old engineer Marcos Marzo went from riding his small electric motorcycle past the low buildings of Havana’s Vedado district to traveling the mega-highways of Florida, amazed by the towering high-rises and giant supermarkets.
A close relative told Marzo on Jan. 21 that he had applied online to sponsor the young engineer’s trip to Florida as required by the new parole program for Cuban migrants set up by the Biden administration. The next day the sponsorship had been confirmed and the day after that it was approved.
With his printed authorization in hand and a small blue suitcase, Marzo climbed aboard a plane to Hialeah, Fla., last Friday, shaken by the speed of it all.
Meanwhile, 20 Republican state officials are arguing in court that Biden’s parole pipeline is illegal.
The reality of migration-imposed wage cuts on Americans is fully recognized by investors and deeply unpopular among voters. For example, by 50 percent to 22 percent of Americans agree companies “should raise wages and try harder to recruit Americans even if it causes the prices of their products to rise,” according to a July 2022 poll by YouGov.com.
