Top 10 News, SOTU2024, angry over use of illegal, GOP response and 30 lies

The Alan Sanders Show

Today’s show opens with Tara Bull’s Top 10 News items, which had a few items that came directly from reactions to last night’s State of the Union 2024 speech. After we run through that, it’s time to dive into the main topic of the show, the SOTU 2024.

Next, I chose to go through my X timeline in real-time to give you a sense of my immediate reactions as I was listening to Joe Biden deliver his speech. It was the most divisive and non-statesman-like speech I have ever heard any president give in my lifetime. It was a State of the Democrat Party speech or a State of his Campaign speech, but it was nothing close to a State of the Union speech.

I then play quotes from CNN that immediately followed the speech and how they mirrored my own observations. It’s stunning to see how even Leftist cable news agencies saw it the same way.

One of the biggest gaffes made by Biden related to a challenge from Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene to say the name of Laken Riley, who was bludgeoned to death by an illegal. Biden was goaded into saying “Lincoln” Riley was killed by an illegal, but then deflected to how many Americans are killed by non-illegals and that he feels for Riley’s parents because he lost a kid too. You cannot make this up.

However, the Left saw the gaffe differently. They were really angry that Biden used the word “illegal.” In bite after bite, the Left seems bent on apologizing to the murderer for making him feel bad by the President calling him an illegal. Just evil and devoid of any sense of reality.

I call balls and strikes on this show and I have to throw the GOP response under the bus, too. Senator Katie Britt was chosen to give the response and while I was fine with her starting with setting a dark and depressing tone, I quickly realized we were going to then get 10 minutes of a B-grade, unknown actress trying to be dramatic in her first role on a Hallmark movie-of-the-week. It was over-acted, melodramatic and lacked giving us any kind of a positive vision for the future. The GOP missed a perfect opportunity to provide a contrast to what Biden just put us through.

The Legacy/mainstream media got their memo on how to describe last night’s SOTU. Multiple outlets all used the phrase “...firey State of the Union Speech…”. The collusion is too easy to see once you know how to read them.

Finally, I close with a piece in The Federalist written by Shawn Fleetwood did a magnificent jobs of listing the 30 biggest lies contained in the speech. I covered many of them in my show, but the list covers some I didn’t get to.
