00:00:00.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we gather here tonight to mourn the state of our nation because the state
00:00:04.820 of our nation is pathetic. And it is pathetic in the main because of the president of the United
00:00:09.520 States. As it turns out, we all should have listened to Barack Obama. In 2020, former
00:00:15.260 President Obama said something simple yet profound about his former vice president,
00:00:19.460 a man he had labeled his brother. He said, don't underestimate Joe's ability to F things up.
00:00:25.080 But Barack Obama was right. Joe Biden came into the office on the wings of eagles. He was handed
00:00:31.480 a working vaccine and a distribution plan for that vaccine. He was handed an economy that had
00:00:37.140 been placed into an artificial coma in order to prevent the spread of COVID. But that was about
00:00:41.440 to rebound to record growth rates. He was handed a stable foreign policy. And he had been blessed
00:00:47.740 with the unending bounty of sycophantic media coverage, welcoming him into the Oval Office
00:00:53.080 with an approval rating of nearly 56 percent. What did he do with these advantages? He presided
00:00:59.780 over perhaps the worst first 14 months of any presidency since the Civil War. And unlike Abraham
00:01:04.280 Lincoln, our current crisis is entirely of Joe Biden's making. On issue after issue, Joe Biden is
00:01:10.860 not merely wrong. He is aggressively wrong. He is not merely foolish. He is stubbornly foolish.
00:01:16.780 Joe Biden became president with one goal, to enshrine himself in history as a great leader.
00:01:21.080 Today, we can safely say that he is one of the worst leaders in American history.
00:01:26.220 On foreign policy, Joe Biden has made America a laughingstock. Our enemies don't respect us.
00:01:31.060 They don't fear us. They laugh at us. Biden promised stability. He promised he would be the adult in
00:01:37.040 the room. Instead, he has acted like a toddler, whining, mewling, throwing tantrums, and then,
00:01:42.500 in the end, capitulating. He precipitously withdrew from Afghanistan for no apparent reason and with
00:01:47.140 no actual strategy, destroying a country for which America had expended thousands of lives and
00:01:52.060 trillions of dollars by handing it over to a group of 8th century radical Islamist barbarians.
00:01:57.700 Those barbarians promptly blew up 13 American service members. And in retaliation, Joe Biden's
00:02:03.800 reaper drones eviscerated an innocent family, including seven children. Now, millions will starve,
00:02:09.920 thousands will be sold into sex slavery, and terror groups will reconstitute on the very soil from which
00:02:15.100 the attacks of September 11th were launched. And thousands of Americans were left behind to
00:02:19.600 suffer under the Taliban. Joe Biden cut off the Keystone XL pipeline and greenlit the Russian
00:02:25.460 Nord Stream 2 pipeline, enriching Vladimir Putin and destroying America's energy independence.
00:02:30.240 Then he proceeded to futz about uselessly as Putin prepared and launched a full-scale invasion of
00:02:34.780 Ukraine, all of which paves the way for a Chinese attack on Taiwan and more aggressive Chinese moves in
00:02:40.400 the South China Sea. And when it comes to our own borders, Joe Biden has ushered in the greatest wave
00:02:45.520 of illegal immigration in modern history. In his first year, Joe Biden's administration was on track
00:02:51.280 for 2 million border apprehensions. The reason is clear. Illegal immigrants have been openly telling
00:02:57.660 media members they're here because they believe Joe Biden will welcome them. Meanwhile, on our northern
00:03:03.140 border, Joe Biden has stood in solidarity with Justin Trudeau as he claimed emergency powers to crush
00:03:08.180 freedom in Canada. But at least Joe Biden has brought transgenderism and diversity, equity and
00:03:13.700 inclusion to the Defense Department. Don't you feel safer already? On the economy, Joe Biden has somehow
00:03:19.520 turned a historic recovery into a chaotic nightmare. For four decades, inflation had not been a persistent
00:03:25.700 problem in American life. Today, inflation rates are running at a four-decade high, thanks to his
00:03:31.500 socialist expending plans and ridiculous regulations. Wage gains have been erased, gas prices are emptying
00:03:36.720 wallets. And the hundreds of thousands of small businesses that went dark, thanks to Democratic-induced
00:03:41.680 lockdown policies, will never come back, erasing the life savings, dreams and jobs of millions of Americans.
00:03:48.560 We face future stagnation thanks to our unsustainable $30 trillion national debt.
00:03:53.960 Joe Biden blames supply chain problems, of course, but at least Joe Biden's transportation secretary, Pete
00:03:58.420 Buttigieg, has been on the case. I mean, when he's not taking two months off for paternity leave, well, nobody in the media
00:04:03.700 seems to care. On crime, Joe Biden has consistently sided against police and with those who would make
00:04:08.880 their job harder. He has unleashed his Department of Justice on police departments all over the
00:04:13.120 country. And innocent Americans, many of them black, have paid for his soft on crime policies with
00:04:18.020 their lives. A dozen major cities have recorded the highest number of homicides ever in the United
00:04:22.880 States. But at least his vice president did help bail Black Lives Matter rioters out of prison.
00:04:27.640 And then there's our society. Joe Biden has made nearly every aspect of our society worse.
00:04:34.560 Joe Biden promised America unity when he entered office. Instead, he labeled his fellow Americans
00:04:40.100 enemies. He encouraged businesses to bar the unvaccinated, even those with natural immunity,
00:04:46.000 from public spaces. Then he sought to have them fired from their jobs en masse in the single largest
00:04:51.220 executive overreach in modern American history. Joe Biden treated political dissenters as scum of the
00:04:56.400 earth. Biden said those who didn't agree with his plans to federalize voting procedures were aligned
00:05:01.320 with Jim Crow and the Confederacy. Biden's Justice Department cracked down on parents after being
00:05:06.220 encouraged to do so by the National School Boards Association, which encouraged the DOJ to treat parents
00:05:12.060 as domestic terrorists for opposing the indoctrination of their children into radical gender and race
00:05:17.420 theory for simply wanting to determine how their kids were educated. Joe Biden's administration
00:05:22.760 slurred traditionally moral Americans as retrograde bigots for the great sin of believing that men are
00:05:28.240 men and women are women. Joe Biden's White House encouraged social media to shut down critics from
00:05:33.640 misinformation and defined misinformation as anything the White House didn't like. And then he and his
00:05:38.320 lackeys said he was doing this in defense of the science. As it turns out, Joe Biden is not merely a
00:05:44.300 brutal failure of a president. He's an aspiring tyrant held back only by the strength of our
00:05:48.380 constitutional structure, a structure he now wishes to overthrow by trashing the filibuster, issuing
00:05:53.480 unconstitutional executive orders and at least threatening to pack the Supreme Court. And of
00:05:58.720 course, Joe Biden is a liar. He doesn't lie as well as he used to. He's no longer capable of speaking
00:06:04.840 smoothly or coherently. But if a man spends a lifetime lying, he's not going to start telling the truth when
00:06:10.380 he enters his eighth decade. Tonight, Joe Biden lied and lied and lied again to you. For example, Joe Biden
00:06:18.280 told you tonight that his plan to fight inflation will lower your costs and lower the deficit. He
00:06:23.380 said he would lower inflation by pouring more cash into the economy on top of the trillions he has
00:06:29.020 already spent while we are 30 trillion dollars in debt. That is an insane lie. Build Back Better
00:06:35.620 would, according to the Congressional Budget Office, increase the federal budget deficit by three
00:06:40.120 trillion dollars over the next 10 years if all Biden's proposed temporary programs became permanent,
00:06:45.480 which is what he wants. And pouring the gasoline of government spending onto the raging fire of
00:06:50.540 inflation is a perfect way to increase costs. Only a fool would propose it. Maybe that's why Joe Biden
00:06:56.740 was telling you until the last five minutes that inflation would be temporary. And Joe Biden told you
00:07:02.060 that his American Rescue Plan, his massive boondoggle stimulus plan, created jobs, lots of jobs. He said he
00:07:07.900 created 6.5 million jobs. That is another lie. There is no evidence Biden's spending produced one job.
00:07:14.160 Nonpartisan projections for job growth in 2021, not including that American Rescue Plan, showed higher
00:07:20.020 job growth than Biden produced. Joe Biden said, we prepared extensively for the Russian invasion of
00:07:25.420 Ukraine. That was untrue. We were manifestly unprepared. We reacted, as the rest of the world did
00:07:31.420 and should have. But had Joe Biden been prepared, perhaps he could have helped deter Russia's invasion
00:07:36.580 rather than encouraging Vladimir Putin's miscalculation. Joe Biden also told you tonight that
00:07:41.900 corporations and the wealthiest Americans aren't paying their fair share of taxes. That, again,
00:07:46.760 is a lie. The highest income Americans pay nearly all net income taxes after government benefits in the
00:07:52.220 United States. Joe Biden said that inflation could be blamed on exploitation by corporations. Another
00:07:57.740 lie. Inflation is a monetary phenomenon. Corporations didn't get more greedy last year. Joe Biden just
00:08:03.420 became president. And Joe Biden said, we will never just accept living with COVID-19. Another lie.
00:08:08.660 Most Americans have been living free since vaccines became available. Only Democratic panic-mongering
00:08:13.860 has prevented more Americans from doing the same. Not COVID itself. Joe Biden said tonight that the
00:08:19.300 right to vote is under assault. Another lie. Widespread voter suppression is not an issue in the United
00:08:24.260 States. Joe Biden simply means he wants to rig the voting rules the way he prefers. Lie after lie
00:08:30.860 after lie. Enough. Enough of Joe Biden. Enough of his bizarrely incompetent vice president who has
00:08:38.180 failed upward into every job she has ever held and who can't seem to keep a straight face when asked a
00:08:43.200 straight question. Enough of his Senate majority leader who spends more time worrying about being
00:08:48.080 primaried by an Instagram communist than worrying about passing solid bipartisan legislation. Enough of
00:08:53.880 his Speaker of the House who kneels in kente cloth in the Capitol Rotunda to protest America's
00:08:58.700 supposed racism. Then goes home and eats gelato in front of her subzero fridge as businesses are
00:09:03.960 forced into bankruptcy by her preferred policies. America deserves better. America deserves a
00:09:10.140 president who sides with parents rather than corrupt teachers unions that shut down schools and mask
00:09:14.700 toddlers and indoctrinate kids into the perverse lies of gender theory and the overt bigotry of critical
00:09:19.780 race theory. America deserves a president who sides with the police who protect law abiding citizens
00:09:24.720 rather than the criminals who target them or the Black Lives Matter radicals who slander America as
00:09:29.700 systemically racist while pocketing tens of millions in cash. America deserves a president who sides with
00:09:34.960 innovators rather than the jealous plutocrats who seek to steal wealth they never created and use it to
00:09:40.040 pay off their friends. America deserves a president who sides with freedom of speech rather than demanding
00:09:44.900 that social media companies crack down on everything he doesn't like. America deserves a president who sides
00:09:50.260 with the blue collar workers who pay his salary not the blue check marks on Twitter. America deserves
00:09:55.260 a president who sides with those who take their families to church every Sunday not those who pledge
00:09:59.740 to blot out our shared Judeo-Christian heritage from public life. America deserves a president who sides
00:10:05.460 with America's allies rather than surrendering to America's enemies. America deserves a president who
00:10:10.300 sides with the Constitution rather than seeking to rewrite it to push forward his bureaucratic tyranny.
00:10:14.860 We are more than a year into Joe Biden's presidency. That year is an unblemished record of failure,
00:10:21.800 viciousness, and lies. Too many Americans have been told by the radical left and its compliant lackeys
00:10:26.900 in the media that America is rooted in racism and bigotry, that freedom is dangerous, that if we listen
00:10:32.020 to the experts and delegate control over our lives to them, all will be well. Too many Americans listened,
00:10:38.660 and so we are in the midst of a great American decline. But that decline is reversible.
00:10:44.860 It starts now. Attend your local school board meetings. Demand an end to the radical
00:10:50.100 indoctrination of your children. Join campaigns in your cities and states for candidates who care
00:10:54.940 about your rights. Vote Joe Biden's enablers out of Congress and the Senate in November, and then
00:10:59.700 vote Joe Biden out of office in 2024. The great American renewal begins when their control of American
00:11:06.420 American lives ends.
