(Mark Pellin, Headline USA) A public lip-lock between first spouses Jill Biden and Mr. Kamala Harris could have overshadowed Tuesday night’s State of the Union address, if it hadn’t been for President Joe Biden blatantly spewing more than an hour’s worth of distortions, dodges, disinformation and outright lies.
The first spouses’ smooch drew a slew of cracks and questions from the Twitterverse, adding some levity to what was an otherwise embarrassing performance from an enfeebled Biden who repeatedly slurred and stumbled his way through promises to finish his job of turning America into a leftist monarchy.

Biden didn’t seem to notice the overly-friendly embrace, and was equally out of touch with reality on everything from the border crisis he created, a fentanyl plague his policies have fostered and a Bidenflation economy that has left Americans struggling to make ends meet.
Biden’s speech was stuffed with so many lies “coming so fast and so furiously and so incoherently that it’s hard to keep track,” tweeted Federalist editor Molly Hemingway.
Rep. Burgess Owens, R-Utah, managed to keep pace, while Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., delivered a doozy that exposed Biden’s penchant for demonizing demagoguery while still claiming to be a uniter.

When Biden tried gaslighting the fate of Social Security under threats from Republicans trying to save it from fiscal disaster, he was met with a chorus of deserved dissent and nearly lost control of his own address.

Biden fared no better when he tried to dodge accountability for the horrendous toll the fentanyl crisis his open borders have enabled.

A special shout-out from the president was reserved for DUI recidivist offender and stock schemer Paul Pelosi, as Biden used the still-mysterious hammering of Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s husband to again spread his J6 Big Lie.
I spoke too soon: later in the speech, according to the prepared text, @JoeBiden will blame “insurrectionists” for the attack on Paul Pelosi. The attacker was a crazy hippie who was illegally in the country. Biden is exploiting the episode for political gain against Trump and GOP https://t.co/RjGMov5WeQ

Joe Biden blames Donald Trump and January 6 objectors for the attack on Paul Pelosi, calling them peddlers of “hate and extremism.”
CNN and MSNBC are going to get weak knees over this. Referring to half the country is domestic terrorists is pornography for them. #SOTU pic.twitter.com/qAvQdL44K5

After allowing a Chinese spy balloon to float its way across America, including hovering over Montana’s three nuclear missile silo fields, Biden declared Tuesday night that he reacted in appropriate measures by shooting it down after its mission had already been accomplished.
“Make no mistake: As we made clear last week, if China’s threatens our sovereignty, we will act to protect our country,” Biden said. “And we did.”
Do you think China is afraid of this old man yelling? We just let China send a spy balloon across our entire country and did absolutely nothing to stop it.

From start to finish, Biden’s State of the Union revealed not only a country in serious decline under his misguided policies, but also a president in ongoing cognitive decline, fumbling over who controls the Senate and stumbling to follow simple directives.
BIDEN: “Congratulations to Chuck Schumer, another, uh, you know, another term as Senate *Minority* Leader. You know, I think you, uh, only this time you have a slightly bigger majority, Mr. Leader. You’re the majority leader.”
SCHUMER: “Thank you.” pic.twitter.com/j5OPFzPMHe
