OPINION
Dear Friends,
Just a few brief comments about President Biden’s “State of the Union Speech”:
I was not impressed.
First he was 30 minutes late. His speech was filled with one Socialist proposal after another, where taxpayers, especially high wage earners, would pay for everything. Corporations would pay much, which will only increase unemployment, will force folks to go out of business, or go overseas to operate.
His rhetoric about the border was beyond fallacious. He created the crisis, allowing close to 15 million illegals into the country-making 90 executive orders to change working border policies that were implemented by Trump. Now he wants Congress to pass a bill that still allows illegals into the country which only facilitates illegal entry, but doesn’t solve the unprecedented invasion of millions of people from all over the world.
Frankly, the Republican response by Senator Katie Britt from Alabama made sense and she clearly exposed all of Biden’s lies.
Enough said. Your comments are welcome and appreciated, as always.
Sincerely yours,
JUDSON Bennett–Coastal Network
