Be On The Lookout For These Lies In Biden's State Of The Union Address

 On Thursday evening, President Joe Biden is set to give his third State of the Union address.

The story Biden will tell about what he has done as president and where the country finds itself as a result will be the same dishonest story he's been telling since at least the summer.

Many of the jobs Biden and his allies take credit for creating will quickly go away once it becomes clear that consumers don't actually want whatever the government encouraged these companies to produce.

In his speech Thursday, Biden is expected to play up his desire to crack down on the "Corporate greed" he's blaming for high prices.

Biden would never place the blame for the dramatic price increases we've experienced during his term where it actually belongs-on all the government spending that he and President Donald Trump oversaw during the pandemic, funded by the creation of $6 trillion out of thin air-because that kind of spending is precisely what he hopes to kick back up in a second term.

That's another topic Biden is expected to highlight in the State of the Union, likely accompanied by the lie that Ukraine spending is good for the American economy.

It's not possible to predict all the ways President Biden will exaggerate, mislead, and outright lie in his speech on Thursday.
