House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office has unveiled a compelling video with the intention of discrediting President Joe Biden prior to his upcoming State of the Union Address on Thursday.
This video, reminiscent of a campaign-style production, showcases various clips and news excerpts highlighting the disarray at the border, the alarming inflation rates during Biden’s tenure, the surge in crime, and a multitude of other issues that have deteriorated or worsened under the president’s leadership. These concerns resonate deeply with the majority of Americans during this crucial election year. Furthermore, following the video’s release on Thursday morning, the Louisiana Republican seized the opportunity to criticize Biden verbally in a statement provided to Fox News Digital.
“The State of the Union address will offer the American people an opportunity to hear directly from the president – a rare occurrence during his tenure in office,” Johnson said.
“In just three years, President Biden’s policies have rapidly accelerated American decline on every issue from the economy to national security and foreign policy. The American people don’t need empty words on a page for a reset. We need better policies and a real leader,” he added.
Fox adds:
“It then flits through anchors and pundits describing the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border, both with the swell of asylum seekers straining state and local resources and the flow of illegal fentanyl that’s killing Americans daily. The video also covers Biden’s championing of “Bidenomics” despite the previous two years’ high inflation rates and rising prices at the grocery store, as well as China’s increased aggression against Taiwan and on the world stage. It’s part of Republicans’ counterprogramming efforts against Biden’s big Thursday night speech before a joint session of Congress at 9 p.m. ET.”
@SpeakerJohnson drops amazing 'real state of the union under Biden' video ahead of the president's speech.
Trump can be gruff, rude, and rough around the edges, no doubt. BUT – America wasn't like this under his watch. We can't do another 4 yrs of Biden. pic.twitter.com/GZ3cFvbxBM
