The State of the Union
Regardless of what POTUS says, it’s what he’s doing that counts.
Trump followers want to make America great again. No one seems to know what the Republican Party wants. But the goals of the Democratic Party are clear. The defining position of today’s left, now more than ever, is one of dissatisfaction and dissidence. Socioeconomic classes and inequalities are resultant of the oppressed being subjugated by the oppressors in an unjustly evolved social system based in racism, xenophobia, misogyny, and capitalistic greed. There is little or nothing in current American society that warrants perpetuation. The Democrats want to remake American society into a system they alone control.
- The Constitution. An illegitimate document framed by slaveowners. It must be reframed to show preference for favored groups, institutions, and policies to bolster the political influence of the Left.
- The Supreme Court. Strict adherence to the tenets of a flawed Constitution stands in the way of progressive liberalism. Judicial activism need replace jurisprudence. The Court needs to be expanded with progressive thinkers. Its jurisdiction should not be limited to Constitutional issues -- Roe should have been upheld.
- Patriotism. Patriotism is a product of white nationalism and xenophobia. There is no American exceptionalism. We must totally and immediately embrace globalization as a moral imperative. Open borders is “who we are!”
- Democracy. Their concept of the democratic process is to jail their political opponent via a weaponized legal system instead of defeating him at the polls. And if that doesn’t work, there is always ballot harvesting and early and absentee mail-in voting.
- Electoral college. A system imparting too much power to the states, particularly rural red zones over urban blue zones. And if it has to stay, we’ll have to grant statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico to establish a permanent electoral majority.
- Free market economy. Unregulated markets, driven by private sector supply and demand, are innovative and efficient, but lack social responsibility and environmental stewardship. Better to have the economy driven by central planning in which the government promotes and subsidizes ventures aligned with its political agenda. (The subprime mortgage push, Solyndra, and current EV mandates are clear examples of central-planning outcomes.)
- Caucasians. A race which, while generating the bulk of mankind’s scientific and technical advances and evolving representative forms of government, has also found time to oppress other ethnic and racial groups and establish a culture of white supremacy and privilege. The DIE movement must be sustained to level the playing field.
- Religion. Religious tenets can be in conflict with the objectives of the administrative state and so must be declared illegal. Society currently includes state and religion. But if society is to be consumed by and equated to state, there is simply no room for religion.
- Family. The family structure, too, can conflict with the agenda of the state. Parents should have no input in developing public-school curricula. Single parenthood is fine, encouraging state dependency. In Obama’s “The life of Julia,” Julia was exalted as a cog in the wheel of the welfare state, without purpose or individuality.
- Gender. We must achieve gender neutrality. “Toxic masculinity” fosters competition and reward for merit in direct opposition to our D-I-E initiative. It also embodies individualism, which hampers collectivism and the attainment of a compliant populace.
- Human nature. Self-serving behavior is baked into human nature, so leftists seek to override the role of human nature in determining behavior because, if left unchecked, it introduces patterns that cannot be manipulated. Acceptable behavior must be molded primarily by environmental exposure. The best way to achieve compliant behavior is through indoctrination of the young.
- Natural law. Natural law also is too inflexible and resistant to manipulation for the Left. Gender and race are thus to be looked upon as social structures rather than biological entities.
These are fulfilling times for the Left, which thrives on stirring up discontent, thus creating an opportunity to display its moral certitude and superiority in defense of the “oppressed“ while weaponizing the forces of the administrative state to wreak revenge upon the “oppressors,” whom they strive to replace.

DOES ANYONE HAVE A DOUBT THAT JILL HAD JOE PUMPED UP WITH 'MEDS'?
The best comment about Biden’s demeanor came from Greg Gutfeld, who skipped over the usual take that Biden was completely hopped up on a variety of possibly illegal amphetamines: (BELOW)
Biden’s SOTU address was, quite simply, horrible
Joe Biden’s State of the Union (“SOTU”) was unlike anything I’ve seen before, and I started watching these speeches in the mid-1980s. No president has ever been so maniacally wired, periodically incoherent, or viciously angry. That was style. The substance was worse. Biden opened by calling Trump a Nazi, shifted to Ukraine, promised to stamp out “insurrections,” and attacked Republicans—and then ended by calling for non-partisanship and comity. Throughout it all, he lied and then lied some more. This was a Dark Brandon campaign speech, not an SOTU.
If you didn’t watch Biden’s SOTU, count yourself lucky. It was a deeply disturbing experience. The best comment about Biden’s demeanor came from Greg Gutfeld, who skipped over the usual take that Biden was completely hopped up on a variety of possibly illegal amphetamines:
When it came to the frenzied speed behind the speech, Ari Fleischer had the second-best description:
Joe Biden was an angry Grandpa Simpson, with the volume cranked up and the speed out of control. This was the kind of guy who, in a rage, would readily push the red button. That alone was unnerving, demonstrating that we have a maniac in office—and, worse, his rage is against the American people.
Biden didn’t open by speaking to Americans about our wonderful country. He began by saying that America is facing a dystopian moment because Donald Trump is effectively Hitler, a point he returned to in an ad-lib during the speech. (All quotations are from the official White House transcript.)
In January 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt came to this chamber to speak to the nation.
He said, “I address you at a moment unprecedented in the history of the Union.”
Hitler was on the march. War was raging in Europe.
President Roosevelt’s purpose was to wake up the Congress and alert the American people that this was no ordinary moment.
Freedom and democracy were under assault in the world.
Tonight I come to the same chamber to address the nation.
Now it is we who face an unprecedented moment in the history of the Union.
And yes, my purpose tonight is to both wake up this Congress, and alert the American people that this is no ordinary moment either.
Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today.
After telling Americans we’re all about to come under the thumb of the new Third Reich, Biden didn’t even return to America. Instead, he spent several minutes telling Americans we must fund the war in Ukraine. Yup. America’s under threat from Putin’s war in Eastern Ukraine. Show Joe the money.
Next in the Democrat dog-and-pony show was January 6, the darkest day in American history.
January 6th and the lies about the 2020 election, and the plots to steal the election, posed the gravest threat to our democracy since the Civil War.
Most Republicans and a large share of Democrats and Independents believe that the 2020 election was riddled with fraud. That truly poses a grave threat to democracy (the voice of the people). Biden actually fears that reversing that fraud is the gravest threat to the Democrat party since the Civil War. No wonder Biden implicitly warned Americans, again, that if they push back against fraud, they will get a visit from the FBI.
Having threatened Americans, Biden did a weird fistshake at the Supreme Court. Naturally, he complained about the Dobbs decision destroying a constitutional right when, in fact, the decision said no federal right ever existed, with abortion being a state’s right matter. But it was what followed that was so disturbing in tone, content, and incoherence:
Is any of this normal?
Nor is it normal for the president during a SOTU, which is supposed to tell Congress and the American people how we’re doing in terms of the economy, national security, and other national metrics, to keep attacking his election opponent. Biden didn’t stop at calling Trump the new Hitler. Instead, according to the official script, he referred negatively to Trump 13 times. (He ad-libbed multiple other insults):
Then there were the flat-out lies. One of the most obvious was Biden’s claim that he, personally, brought the cost of insulin down to $400 per month for seniors:
Instead of paying $400 a month for insulin seniors with diabetes only have to pay $35 a month!
And now I want to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month for every American who needs it!
For years people have talked about it but I finally got it done and gave Medicare the power to negotiate lower prices for prescription drugs just like the VA does for our veterans.
The truth is that Trump had already lowered insulin prices via executive order. On his first full day in office, Biden reversed that order, causing prices to shoot up. Then, he signed his own order, for which he now takes credit:
It’s a Herculean task to go through Biden’s SOTU and find every lie, whether by commission or omission, about national security, the economy, education, or anything else—and that’s the point. As Alex Jones told Tucker following the SOTU, it’s easy to rebut one lie. It’s almost impossible to rebut a hundred.
He's right. As a litigator, I saw that it takes a sentence to tell a lie but a paragraph or more to rebut it. Most people (judges included) have no patience for the rebuttal, especially when there are a hundred rebuttals. The “Big Lie” is equally effective when presented as 100 smaller lies.
Throughout it all, the Democrats in the audience responded with partisan fervor, screaming, “Four more years,” not just when Biden entered the chamber but throughout his speech.
I think that because they were in the House chamber for an official proceeding (it’s in the Constitution!), this was a clear Hatch Act violation, as well as violating House ethics rules.
Jamie Raskin gleefully tagged Marjorie Taylor Greene for wearing a hat that wanted to Make America Great Again, which is a sentiment every American politician should endorse:
Greene, incidentally, scored the best moment of the SOTU when she demanded that Biden say Lakin Riley’s name. Biden processed the request and decided on the fly that he’d better comply. Therefore, he acknowledged that “Lincoln Riley” was killed by an “illegal” (infuriating his base) before saying actual Americans are more dangerous and, by the way, did you know that his son died, too:
Biden also demanded (again) that Republicans vote for the border bill, insisting that it will stem the flow of illegal aliens by giving him the power he needs. In fact, Biden already has plenary power to stop all illegal immigration instantly. What the bill will do is weaken America’s existing immigration laws to paper over the crisis Biden created by violating those same laws.
The only unexpected part of a speech, which included predictable demands for gun control, crocodile tears about book banning, an effort to lessen election integrity, and a huge, boats-on-the-water relief effort for the same people in Gaza who enable Hamas, was Biden’s bizarre claim that Democrats are the pro-police party. Marinate on that one for a while.
After this unnerving display of anger, hysteria, vengefulness, hate, and dishonesty, Biden closed his speech this way: “Hate, anger, revenge, retribution are among the oldest of ideas. But you can’t lead America with ancient ideas that only take us back. … There is nothing beyond our capacity when we act together!”
A coked-up demagogue is not what America needs, but it’s all that the Democrat party has to offer.

Gold Star father thrown out of Biden's SOTU and put in cuffs after shouting a call to remember his son
Joe Biden's State of the Union was long, at least and hour long, and boring as heck, going into minutia about ticket prices, shrinkflation, and abortion as "care," amounting to essentially a campaign speech.
Left unsaid was any mention of one of the worst failures on his watch, the horrendous U.S. pullout from Afghanistan. While he's running for re-election, he'd rather that be ... forgotten.
Well, not everyone has that luxury of forgetting and moving along.
According to the Daily Mail:
The Gold Star father of a Marine killed during the catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal was arrested during Thursday's State of the Union for heckling President Joe Biden during his speech.
Steve Nikoui, the father of slain Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, shouted 'Remember Abbey Gate!' 'United States Marines!' and 'Abbey Gate!' from the balcony of the House chamber in the middle of the president's remarks.
Abbey Gate is where Nikoui's son Kareem and 12 other service members were killed by a suicide bomber during the chaotic American exit from Kabul on August 26, 2021.
The 51-year-old, who has blamed Biden for his son's death, was quickly removed from the public gallery and placed in handcuffs.
The Gold star father began his protest after Biden said 'America’s safer today than when I took office.'
O.K., I can understand removing him from the speech owing to his heckle. When you make up your mind to do that, you pretty well know that you'll be stopped and taken out.
What's obnoxious here is that they saw fit to handcuff him, like a drunk or criminal, when he was clearly an aggrieved father who sought to have his son's needless death remembered given that it was done in selfless service to his country. Biden, remember, looked at his watch several times when his son's body was brought back in a box from Afghanistan. Had this father not been treated this badly by the Bidenites these past few years, his shoutout never would have happened.
But for that, they slap the cuffs on him, which is a lot more than they do for illegal aliens literally breaking into our country through its Southern border.
The sheer lack of proportionality here, along with the extreme leadership failures that led up to his son's death does call for an explanation from Joe and his miserable lieutenants out on their Hamptons vacays.
But Joe doesn't want anyone to so much as remember this, let alone the lives of the 13 innocent servicemembers who were needlessly killed on the way out. That explains the draconian response on a Gold Star father.
Democrats have screamed outrage at President Trump for his tiffs with some gold star families with activist agendas in other contexts.
Where is their outrage now?

Obama-Biden Administration Was Creeping Fascism
The similarities between the Obama administration and Italian fascism have been pointed out many times. Over a dozen articles about this are on this site alone (1, 2, 3, 4). It is usually said that fascism is a strain of socialism in which the means of production are beneficially owned by private persons but controlled by the government.
Both the Obama administration and Mussolini used a financial crisis to take over banks and industry. Mussolini openly assumed complete control of them, even though partial private ownership was allowed to remain. The U.S. government bailed out banks and the auto industry in 2008, before Obama was inaugurated. It did not own the banks, but the bailout created public sentiment in favor of government control of the banks and more regulation of all businesses. Obama used this sentiment to its full extent. Elizabeth Warren led the creation of the partisan Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which wielded unprecedented powers and was unaccountable to Congress. By 2016, the corporate world was already subverted and controlled by the Democrat administration. For example, all banks refused to deal with Donald Trump in 2016. The democrat-controlled media misrepresented the cause of this discrimination. Warren’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau effectively allowed the ruling administration to strangle its opposition financially.
Citizens United v. FEC, decided by the Supreme Court in January 2010, very likely radicalized Democrats even further into total fascism. The Supreme Court confirmed that private corporations have the First Amendment right to use their money to support political candidates; Democrats concluded that they would have to control corporations to win elections.
Starting in 2010, the Obama administration viciously targeted any effective opposition, including the Tea Party movement, which was obliterated. The IRS was most notorious for targeting Tea Party organizations, but the DOJ (Eric Holder) and the FBI (Robert Mueller) also participated. What do we call regimes that destroy non-violent opposition movements?
A few months before the 2012 elections, Obama’s DOJ sued Gallup for hinting that the government had manipulated unemployment numbers. Additionally, Obama’s DOJ sued Standard & Poor’s for $5 billion for downgrading the federal debt, Treasurys. As a result, nobody challenges the false current inflation numbers, and the credit rating agencies do not dare downgrade the Treasurys below their current AA+/AAA rating.
The Obama administration also waged and eventually won the war on Fox News. It also chilled media criticism of Obama and the administration’s agenda. The DOJ and FBI (Robert Mueller and James Comey) criminally prosecuted and imprisoned filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza and lied about the initiation and predication of that investigation. (D’Souza had produced a film criticizing and mocking Obama.)
Similarly, climate scientists who opposed the administration's climate dogma were defunded and silenced. Then, the Obama administration intimidated businesses into not donating to nonprofits linked to climate dissent, essentially stifling corporate donations to almost all right-of-center think tanks.
Much of this information was not known during the Obama administration, and most of the public missed it. How could this happen? Where was the media—the self-appointed guard dog of democracy? In the beginning, the mainstream media was enamored with Obama. By the time it realized the severity of Obama’s abuses of power, it was no longer able to mount any opposition.
How did this happen? The Obama administration started by hand-picking tech corporations, who then quickly and consequently became what we now call “Big Tech.” Combined with other measures, this effectively gave the administration control over the flow of information, including the news.
As newspapers, journals, and magazines transitioned to the Internet, Google and Microsoft took authors’ copyrighted content without compensation and offered access to it through their search engines. Improvements in Google’s search engine meant exploiting other people’s work more efficiently.
The Obama administration failed to enforce copyright laws on written works, in violation of Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution which reads:
To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries[.]
By 2009, the news media was able to connect its financial difficulties to Google. Rupert Murdoch attempted to work out a compromise with Big Tech, but the administration waged war on him.
Instead of enforcing copyright laws, the Democrats arranged for Big Tech, specifically Google, to pay only selected outlets, such as The New York Times. This resulted in the media becoming entirely dependent on the Big Tech corporations Obama chose. The administration also signed special agreements with these Big Tech corporations and patronized them with thousands of government accounts, effectively eliminating all other competitors.
Democrats also disregarded the second part of the above clause regarding Inventors and Discoveries. The seemingly bipartisan “America Invents Act”, passed under intense lobbying by Big Tech, made most patents unenforceable retroactively. Although there was a legitimate controversy about software patents, the leading cause for this reform was that the tech companies picked by the Obama administration were young and entirely based on inventions made by others. For example, Facebook was founded in 2004, after inventions that led to the creation of the interactive web had already been made. So, for Big Tech to not pay royalties or give credit to the original inventors, the government re-distributed wealth from the pioneers of the Internet to the multi-billion dollar corporations of its choice.
Obamanet was another major strike against freedom, forcing all publishers and authors to go through Google and other internet gatekeepers.
Thus, the opposition press was muzzled and driven almost to extinction without the public noticing. The Big Tech winners, cherry-picked by the Obama administration, became the administration’s most enthusiastic supporters. In addition to its monopoly of information, Big Tech also provided Democrats troves of private data and the capacity for mass surveillance and economic marginalization of dissenters. By 2013, Twitter was suspending accounts criticizing Obamacare.
Trump’s victory in 2016 came as a shock for Democrats who thought they had a firm grip on both the corporations and the media. It was as if Mussolini decided to allow sham elections and suddenly lost them. While Obama expected to quit after his two terms, the corporations who had developed this symbiotic relationship with the ruling Democrat party needed it to remain in power. Together with young and hungry Democrat operatives, they launched the resistance.
In 2016, the Democrat government apparatus, which had destroyed the Tea Party, jailed Dinesh D’Souza, hounded dissenting voices from Fox News to the Associated Press (some articles), and had now set its sights on Donald Trump. In hindsight, this was predictable.
In 2021, Biden confirmed what many had suspected — Democrats wanted the Republican party as a controlled opposition. In January 2021, Biden was telling the public what the Republican party should be. By March 2021, Biden was already saying that he is not sure whether there will be a Republican party in 2024.
Obamaism and Italian fascism have more in common than ideological similarities. Before WWI, Mussolini was a non-fascist socialist; socialists were anti-war. What turned Mussolini against anti-war socialism was Marx’s observation that wars are followed by revolutions. If wars cause revolutions, let’s join the war! Notice how easy this switch was?
