President Joe Biden is going after those who he feels aren't paying their fair share such as Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos as his office plans to raise taxes for corporations and billionaires. The aging Democrat, 81, will make the announcement during the annual State of the Union address Thursday night. Corporate tax will rise from 21 percent to 25 percent and a 25 percent tax for those with wealth of over $100 million.

Joe Biden is delivering his State of the Union Speech tonight before Congress, and President Donald J. Trump is going to destroy him with a live play-by-play response.
Trump announced last night that he “will correct, in rapid response, any and all inaccurate Statements, especially pertaining to the Border and his Weaponization of the DOJ, FBI, A.G.s, and District Attorneys, to go after his Political Opponent, ME (something never done before in this Country!). We”
As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump released a fiery prebuttal to Joe Biden’s State of the Union Address earlier today.
Federal authorities constructed a wall surrounding the U.S. Capitol Building for President Joe Biden’s Thursday State of the Union speech, drawing the ire of Republicans who painted a contrast between Biden’s open border policies and the heavily guarded Capitol complex.
The eight-foot black Capitol wall, approved by the Capitol Police Board, could be more heavily guarded on Thursday by law enforcement than the southern border where 1.7 million known “gotaways” escaped into the United States under Biden.
The Capitol Police say Biden’s State of the Union address is a designated National Special Security Event, which requires a “robust” security plan
U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), a freshman Republican close with former President Donald Trump, is boycotting Democrat President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Thursday evening, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.
Vance told Breitbart News that he does not want to “legitimize” all the lies Biden will tell in the speech with his attendance. “This state of the union is a farce thanks to Joe Biden’s disgraceful job performance,” Vance told Breitbart News. “Tonight, he’s going to stand before the American people and lie about the state of our economy, the security of our borders, and the safety of our citizens. I’m not interested in legitimizing the president’s lies
President Joe Biden arrived at the Capitol on Thursday to deliver a State of the Union address with the goal of presenting himself as a hopeful, energized choice to voters who are mulling whether to give him or Donald Trump a second term in the White House.
He walked into the House chamber to shouts of 'Joe' from Democrats and loud applause. Biden, a more than 30-year veteran of Capitol Hill, stopped to talk to several lawmakers as he walked down the aisle.
One person shouted to him 'look over here.' Biden and did a visible double take. Standing there was Representative Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-Georgia), wearing a shirt and button showing
President Joe Biden will urge Congress on Thursday night to introduce sweeping tax hikes on billionaires and corporations to make sure they 'pay their fair share'.
The proposals include raising the corporate minimum tax for companies worth more than $1 billion to 21 percent, up from the 15 percent that went into effect last year.
The president will also call for a 25 percent tax on individuals with wealth of more than $100 million and the abolition of tax deductions on corporate jets.Biden has insisted that his plans will not increase taxes for Americans making less than $400,000.
But those not in the top one percent
Rupert Murdoch, 92, has announced he is engaged to retired scientist Elena Zhukova, 67, after meeting her through his third wife Wendi Deng.
The Fox patriarch started dating Zhukova over the summer after his previous engagement to former police chaplain and vineyard owner Ann Lesley Smith was called off just two weeks after it was announced.
DailyMail.com revealed the happy couple started dating in August when the two were spotted cruising the Mediterranean on a family summer holiday. They are now planning a summer wedding.
Employees at the Department of Justice (DOJ) sent an email in March 2022 regarding Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz’s line of questioning to the assistant director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI’s) cyber division about Hunter Biden’s laptop, according to documents uploaded by the DOJ.
During the March 2022 hearing, Gaetz entered Hunter Biden’s laptop into the Congressional record and pressed the FBI on the location of Hunter Biden’s laptop, to which he did not get an answer. Gaetz also asked if the Biden family had been compromised and if anyone at the FBI knew where the laptop was located.
New CCTV video was posted earlier on Tuesday that shows Kamala Harris exiting the US Capitol at 11:21 AM on January 6, 2021.
The DOJ later lied and later filed indictments for a year against Trump supporters claiming Kamala Harris was still in the building later that day.
The video was released today by Free State Will. (X Video) And video also shows a man dressed as a protester in a hoodie coordinating with police before any protesters entered the US Capitol that day.
On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Biden Campaign Co-Chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that he “wouldn’t encourage” President Joe Biden to debate 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump, if “Trump wants to see Joe Biden in primetime, he should tune in and watch tonight.” And that “the American people need to make up their own minds based on what difference Joe Biden has made in their lives.”
Host Jake Tapper asked, “Former President Trump is saying that he wants to debate Joe Biden anytime, anywhere, any place. Is that a good idea? Do you think, if it’s — if this is a don’t compare me to

In 1984, the Reagan-Bush campaign aired a political commercial that helped seal their landslide re-election, winning 49 states and 525 electoral votes. “Morning in America“ is an iconic piece of political history — a video that is fondly nostalgic for the Boomer generation because the Reagan years were a golden time of peace and prosperity. As a generation, the Boomers truly came of age, put the Cold War behind them, lived without crime and discord, and saw the beginnings of the greatest stock market boom in history. It was that special time that comes once in the life of every generation.
An 11-year-old boy from the United Kingdom has died after huffing toxic chemicals in a TikTok challenge known as “chroming” — and his devastated family wants the social media company shut down and all others barred from children under 16.
Tommie-Lee Gracie Billington, 11, suffered a suspected cardiac arrest at a friend’s house in Lancaster on Saturday, according to the Times of London.
He was rushed to a nearby hospital just, where he died.
“He died instantly after a sleepover at a friend’s house. The boys had tried the TikTok craze ‘chroming,'” said the boy’s grandmother, Tina Burns.

Washington— President Joe Biden is set to use his State of the Union address Thursday to promote his vision for a second term to a dispirited electorate that questions whether he’s up to the job and to warn that GOP front-runner Donald Trump would be a dangerous alternative.
Biden’s third such address from the House rostrum will be something of an on-the-job interview, as the nation’s oldest president tries to quell voter concerns about his age and job performance while sharpening the contrast with his all-but-certain November rival.The president hopes to showcase his accomplishments on infrastructure and manufacturing, as well as push for action on aid to Ukraine, tougher

Khader Al Zaanoun told CNN he witnessed the aid packages falling from planes over the Al Shati camp on Friday but cannot confirm which nation was behind the air drop.
Muhammad Al-Sheikh, Head of Emergency Care Department at Al Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City confirmed five people were killed in the incident.
Some of those injured in the incident and transferred to Al Shifa are in serious condition, according to Al-Sheikh.

Indiana Republican Sen. Todd Young told the media on Friday, days after former President Trump’s commanding Super Tuesday performance, that he will not be endorsing the former president. "Nothing's changed from my standpoint," Young told CNN after WWEV 44 News reported that Young will not support Trump due to the former president’s position and comments on Russia’s war in Ukraine.
"I trust the people I represent to make their own decisions on who they’re going to vote for."
The outlet reported that Young has not decided who he will support in November.

Fresh off threatening to punch black Trump supporters in the face, Charles Barkley doubled down, calling any black person who wears Trump mugshot merchandise “a freakin’ idiot.”
Barkley takes issue with former President Trump comparing his legal and political plight with that of black individuals in America. He’s made it abundantly clear he’s not a fan of Trump, who he refers to as a “white billionaire” who is “asinine” and “stupid.” He made his clarifying comments on Wednesday’s edition of “King Charles” on CNN.
On Saturday, the basketball star bluntly stated, “If I see a black person walking around with a Trump mugshot, I’m gonna punch him in the face.”
Pound sand, y'all. That's my interpretation of how Houston Mayor John Whitmire handled a demand from the city's Mulsim community. Houston Muslim leaders issued a 24-hour deadline to the mayor in their demand that he call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war. There was a Thursday 5:00 p.m. deadline for the mayor to call for a ceasefire and Mayor Whitmire did not meet that deadline. More than 40 Muslim Imams and organizations threatened to boycott the city's annual Ramadan dinner. And, they threatened to remove their support. They said if he did not meet their demand Whitmire would lose audiences, business partners, and also votes.
Progressive Democrats are furious at President Joe Biden for accurately describing the man suspected of murdering 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley.
Biden addressed Riley’s death during his State of the Union address Thursday evening after he was heckled by Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R., Ga.) and misstated her name in the process.
“Lincoln (sic) Riley, an innocent young women who was killed by an illegal, that’s right,” Biden said while holding up a pin with her name on it. “To her parents I say, my heart goes out to you having lost children myself, I understand,” he added.
Progressive lawmakers led by Representative Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) objected
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) For over 30 years now, my preference when it comes to the State of the Union address is to avoid the televised applause break circus and read the transcript later. That used to mean waiting until the next day to read it in the paper. Now I don't have to delay the torture.
Last night, while my good friend Stephen Green was doing one of his patented live VodkaPundit Drunkblogs to cover the speech, I was making hot sauce. It's a new hobby of mine. It keeps me off the street and, hey, one more handy skill
During more than three years of his presidency, Joe Biden has become known as much for his bursts of anger and yelling as for his serial lying and concocting mumbling words that make zero sense.
[snip] He had one last opportunity to at least try to somewhat heal — if just a bit — a nation further fractured by his divisive presidency.
Yet, there Joe was: "Us against them" vs. "Let's try to come together." The latter was not to happen.
Instead, a very angry president screamed at House Republicans and about Donald Trump — and even looked the Supreme Court justices in the eye and politically chastised them
Joe Biden’s fiery but mostly peaceful State of the Union address prompted many to suggest that he had been drugged before the speech to ensure an energetic performance.
I don’t doubt that many wags made those comments in jest, but it may actually be the truth. A psychiatrist who specializes in elderly dementia patients told the Washington Times that Biden displayed behaviors indicative of stimulant usage to conceal cognitive decline during his State of the Union address on Thursday.
While Democrats were rushing to claim that his performance proved that he was physically and mentally capable of handling the presidency, Dr. Carole Lieberman, a forensic psychiatrist based in Beverly Hills, Calif.,
The SOTU from Hell

The comedian Richard Lewis, of blessed memory, is credited with the formulation “the x from hell.” Having watched President Biden’s State of the Union Address last night in order to comment on it this morning, I found it to be the SOTU from hell. Thank you, Mr. Lewis.
The White House has posted the text of the speech “as prepared for delivery.” That isn’t exactly how he gave it. You have to see it to get the full flavor. I have posted the White House video at the bottom.
Herewith are my impressions of Biden’s delivery and my observations on the speech in the form of bullet points:
An investigation by the Department of Defense into UFO sightings found no evidence to support the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
The Pentagon published a report on Friday by its All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) reviewing 80 years of UFO sightings and concluded there is no evidence UFO sighting reflected the existence of alien life.
“AARO found no evidence that any USG investigation, academic-sponsored research, or official review panel has confirmed that any sighting of a UAP represented extraterrestrial technology,” the DoD report summarizes. Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) is the technical term used to classify UFOs.

The Tennessee Office of Homeland Security has quietly issued an internal warning about an anti-Trump lunatic who’s threatened to kill Trump supporters.
Nobody would even know about the alert if it hadn’t been for conservative activist Steven Crowder, who obtained a copy that he subsequently shared with the world.
Look: [Tweet]
It’s not clear why the Tennessee Office of Homeland Security hasn’t yet alerted the public to this major threat.
The attached internal warning seen above identifies the anti-Trump lunatic as Benjamin Matthew Dayton, a 30-year-old man.

Capitol Police arrested Gold Star father Steve Nikoui — whose son, Lance Corporal Kareem Nikoui, lost his life in the Abbey Gate bombing during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan — during President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address Thursday night.
