One would think with a Chinese spy ship floating across the continental United States that President Biden’s State of the Union address would focus on national security and what they’re doing to protect the country.

But nah. Instead, we were subjected to a rambling, often incoherent series of lies, accusations, and fabrication delivered by a man alternately yelling, whispering, and stumbling through a teleprompted script. In the week leading up to the speech that is supposed to inform the American people about the actual state of the union, Biden instead handled it like a campaign message in a bottle from the basement.

We heard about how the Biden administration was determined to go after hotels that charge those “resort fees” when they’re not a resort, and junk fees in general. We all hate those. But it is a little off mark for Americans who are still struggling to cope with eggs costing $8 dollars a dozen, and can’t fill up their tank.

When he mentioned that fentanyl was killing 70,000 Americans a year, the chamber erupted with many appropriately reminding the president that this horror was the result of his own open border policies. Biden’s response? He smirked.

Biden did have to address the spy balloon scandal considering the nation watched in disbelief as the craft travelled at will over the American landscape, unobstructed. He spent 2 minutes on China in the 72-minute address, while never mentioning the spying event itself. Biden noted, “I’m committed to work with China where we can advance American interests and benefit the world. But make no mistake about it: as we made clear last week, if China threatens our sovereignty, we will act to protect our country. And we did.”

Yeah, no he didn’t. He may have ensured the Atlantic Ocean’s privacy, but Biden and the fools who run him allowed a CCP spy machine to traverse the entire continental United States without interruption. His remark was ostensibly a lie, just as the administration claimed the catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal was an “extraordinary success.”

It is pathological when the answer to everything is a lie.

Perhaps the Biden administration was happy that the balloon was taking the focus off the classified documents scandal that has been dogging him for the last several weeks. That disaster, like the spy balloon, was also kept secret by our government, in that case for months, until leaked to Politico. But Americans can walk and chew gum at the same time and understand the constant chaos and dangerous catastrophes brought about by the Biden Gang isn’t improving our outlook for the future.

We now know that our government was aware of the spy balloon near the Aleutian Islands and Alaska, and did nothing. The Canadians and NORAD watched it as it entered into Canada. And we did nothing. It then crossed the northern border from Canada into Idaho and Montana where a private citizen noticed the intruder, after which the Billings Gazette informed the world that something not quite right was loitering in the Montana sky.

GOP Rep. Mike Turner, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee told NBC News the spycraft was all along the path of “our sensitive missile defense sites, our nuclear weapons infrastructure, our nuclear weapon sites.”

And still the Biden administration allowed it to continue on its mission.

No one believes the rank absurdity of the administration explaining they didn’t shoot it down because they didn’t want anyone on the ground to be hurt. Especially when they had opportunities over the sparsely populated areas of the Aleutian Islands, Alaska and Montana.

The Biden administration has known since day one (if not long before) the danger that the Chinese Communist Party poses to this country. It is so serious that in July 2022 the head of the UK’s MI5 and our FBI made an unprecedented joint appearance to warn about the “immense” threat China poses to the world. The BBC reported on the London meeting: “FBI director Christopher Wray said China was the ‘biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security… [the MI5 director] said the challenge posed by the Chinese Communist Party was ‘game-changing’, while Wray called it ‘immense’ and ‘breath-taking’.”

Recently on another malign and massive CCP project to infiltrate the US, a city in North Dakota “rejected a Chinese government-linked agricultural project located right near a key U.S. military drone base after the Biden administration refused to act against the ‘significant threat to national security,” reported the Washington Examiner. Moreover, “Chinese holdings of U.S. agricultural land surged from 13,720 acres in 2010 to 352,140 acres in 2020, valued at $1.9 billion,” reports the America First Institute. “Americans have a right to determine which foreign countries may purchase U.S. farmland. Countries such as Communist China spreading malign influence at all levels of our society to undermine us should not be allowed to acquire it.”

In the end of this particular disaster, and as Biden was delivering his confused and empty SOTU address, the Navy and Coast Guard were attempting to retrieve bits and pieces of the China spy craft which had been shot down off the coast of South Carolina. Using drones to search for debris fields, officials told the AP they were “gathering up what they could.”

Not exactly the most promising of declarations.

You are not alone in being both outraged and perplexed at the continuing bizarre and malign behavior of the Biden administration. But the GOP talent bench is deep and there is hope. In the midst of all of this there are shining lights, one of which was Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sander’s GOP response to Biden’s baffling speech. She reminded us that in these trying times conservatism and love of this country is not only needed, it’s required.
