Biden claims he's been 'delivering real results in fiscally responsible ways,' but here are the FACTS



The claims Biden made about the budget and the deficit during his disastrous State of the Union speech are bound to anger any hard-working American — and for good reason, because they’re not true.

“By the way, the first couple years we cut the deficit,” Biden told the country. “I’ve been delivering real results in fiscally responsible ways.”

“We’ve already cut the federal deficit,” he continued while slurring his words, “over a trillion dollars. I signed the bipartisan deal to cut another trillion dollars in the next decade.”

Stu Burguiere caught the lie immediately.

“Did you pick up a claim, uh, $1 trillion he claims he has cut,” Burguiere says, before going over the Congressional Budget Office Budget Outlook Headline Update to the budget from 2020 to 2030.

The CBO projected a federal budget deficit of $3.3 trillion in 2020, which is more than triple the shortfall recorded in 2019.

“We had a minor interruption, you might remember, called COVID-19,” Burguiere says, explaining that because no one could work, the government shelled out trillions of dollars to keep the economy running for what was supposed to be a short period of time.

“So the fact that he’s claiming a budget savings here is tough,” he adds.

Meanwhile, in 2018 and 2019, Donald Trump had deficits of $800 billion and $1 trillion.

In 2022 and 2023, Biden has $1.4 trillion and $1.7 trillion.

“How do you make $900 billion turning into $1.55 trillion into a good move?” Burguiere asks.

“You just measure yourself against peak COVID spending, which we all know is completely insane.”

Capitol Police chief says militias from Jan 6 riot are plotting to blow up the Capitol during Biden's State of the Union address



The acting chief of the Capitol Police said that members of the militias that rioted on Jan. 6 are plotting to blow up the Capitol building during President Joe Biden's State of the Union address in order to kill many members of Congress.

Acting chief Yogananda Pittman made the comments during her testimony via teleconference on Thursday at a House hearing about the Capitol rioting.

"We know that members of militia groups that were present on Jan. 6 have stated their desires that they want to blow up the Capitol and kill as many members as possible with a direct nexus to the State of the Union, which we know that date has not been identified," Pittman said.

"So based on that information, we think that it's prudent that Capitol Police maintain its enhanced and robust security posture until we address those vulnerabilities going forward," she added.

About 5,000 National Guard troops are expected to continue to protect the Capitol until March.

Pittman rejected accusations that her department had ignored intelligence that warned of an attack to the scale that materialized on Jan. 6.

"The department was not ignorant of intelligence indicating an attack of the size and scale we encountered on the 6th. There was no such intelligence," she said.

"Although we knew the likelihood for violence by extremists," she explained, "no credible threat indicated that tens of thousands would attack the U.S. Capitol, nor did the intelligence received from the FBI or any other law enforcement partner indicate such a threat."

Pittman also told members of the House Appropriations subcommittee that while some of the rioters were organized, many others were simply regular everyday Americans who were angry and acted with a mob-like mentality. Pittman said that the Capitol Police were not prepared to deal with the latter.
