‘Here’s the definitive list of Biden’s biggest State of the Union falsehoods.’
https://thefederalist.com/2024/03/08/biden-lied-30...?
commonone, take note of lie #8....These are laughable. For example:
#1
Biden claimed that Republicans who oppose sending additional U.S. taxpayer dollars to Ukraine are doing so because they want America to “walk away from our leadership in the world.” For the first time in the nearly 50-year history of the Chicago Council Survey, a majority of Republicans in 2023 said it would be best for the future of the United States to stay out of — rather than take an active part in — in world affairs.
Only 48% of MAGA republicans say the United States should be the dominant world leader.#2.
Biden claimed former President Trump told Vladimir Putin, “Do whatever the hell you want,” regarding Russia’s invasion of Eastern Europe. But that’s not accurate.Well, here's the quote.
TRUMP:
“No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You got to pay. You got to pay your bills.”And again, as we've discussed here several times: there are no "bills" in NATO.
#3.
Biden claimed “the free world is at risk” if the U.S. doesn’t ship more American taxpayer dollars to Ukraine. There is literally no evidence to support this assertion.Sure there is: Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told Moldova it will be “the next victim in the hybrid war that the West unleashed against Russia”. Putin this year repealed a decree recognizing Moldova’s independence. Russia has tried turning off the country’s heat and energy, until Moldova switched to buying gas and power from Europe. It tried insurrection, organized and funded by a fugitive, Kremlin-friendly oligarch.
#4.
Contrary to Biden’s claim, the J6 events did not put American self-governance in jeopardy, nor did it expose Americans to risks like those experienced during World War I, the Japanese attacks on Pearl Harbor, or World War II, to name a few.President Biden didn't say anything about the physical threats of war or attacks from
foreign enemies, he was speaking about
domestic acts against democracy itself, the peaceful transfer of power, a domestic attack against the United States Capitol and its Constitutional order.
#5.
Biden falsely contended the Alabama Supreme Court “shut down IVF treatments across the state.”Umm, that's exactly what it did. Even the Alabama legislature had to scramble to address the ruling after physicians, clinics, and hospitals “shut down IVF treatments across the state.”
No, sorry, this rambling list by the Federalist is complete nonsense.
