It made me angry, for one \u2014 it was full of lies. Biden appears to be suffering from some early-stage dementia \u2014 that was apparent right out the gate. We could talk about how Biden pretended he wanted to fight the fentanyl epidemic, while allowing the deadly drug to flow freely across our open borders.<\/p>\n<p>We could talk about perhaps his most bizarre claim of all \u2014 that he\u2019s some sort of anti-Big Pharma hero. Is this the same guy The Daily Wire had the to fight over because he tried to authorize Labor Department to force the vaccine into every American working person&#8217;s arm.<\/p>\n<p>Are you able to recall that? Don\u2019t worry if you don\u2019t, he probably doesn\u2019t remember either.<\/p>\n<p>Or we could touch upon him pretending that he\u2019s sticking it to China.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, they did! We allowed them to fly a spy balloon for eight days in the entire United States.<\/p>\n<p>Nope, nope. I don\u2019t didn\u2019t want to discuss any of that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/ep-90-toxic-mom-culture-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Check out my show today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, the best moment of the State of the Union was actually the little riff-raff between Romney and Santos. At the beginning of the State of the Union, the New York congressman exchanged sharp words with the Utah senator. The intense exchange was captured by the camera.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lip readers speculated that Romney told Santos he shouldn\u2019t be at the address. Romney confirmed he did, in fact, dress down Santos \u2014 who has admitted to \u201cembellishing\u201d His resume covers almost every aspect.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t expect that he\u2019d be standing there trying to shake hands with every senator in the United States,\u201d Romney spoke to reporters as he left the building. \u201cThat\u2019s a given. And given the fact that he\u2019s under ethics investigation, he should be sitting in the back row and staying quiet instead of parading in front of the president and the people coming into the room.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you look at like he said, he says he knows that he embellished his record. Look, embellishing is saying you got an A when he had an A-minus. Lying is saying you graduated from a college you didn\u2019t even attend. He shouldn\u2019t be in Congress,\u201d He went on. \u201cAnd they\u2019re going to go through the process and hopefully get him out but he shouldn\u2019t be there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">REPORTER: &#8220;You just said you [Santos] don&#8217;t belong here\u2026Why did you say that?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>ROMNEY: &#8220;I didn&#8217;t expect that he&#8217;d be standing there trying to shake hands with every Senator and the President\u2026He shouldn&#8217;t be there\u2026If he had any shame at all, he wouldn&#8217;t be there.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/yBIxnWNLDd\">pic.twitter.com\/yBIxnWNLDd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1623350577739534341?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 8, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Is Romney right?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It certainly seems as if Santos has been caught lying about virtually everything \u2014 from the schools he attended to his employment history, and his family background, and even whether or not he was a drag queen in Brazil.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This man is definitely unethical. It is true that he is being investigated for ethics violations. The fact that Santos is here is quite hilarious.<\/p>\n<p>However, Mitt Romney is also Mitt. This is the strange circumstance where the pot calls the kettle black in many other ways.<\/p>\n<p>Mitt Romney says \u201cOh, this guy\u2019s a fraud. This guy\u2019s lying. This guy\u2019s raised money on these lies and now he\u2019s here in Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You are kidding me, Mitt Romney. Because of your lies, you raised more money.<\/p>\n<p>People from all over America believed you would be a strong conservative candidate to become president in 2012. These people then gave you hundreds and millions of dollars to support your campaign. Only for you to lose the election and become a leftist.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to future legislation, I\u2019m going to guess that Santos will vote more conservatively than Romney will.<\/p>\n<p>But for Romney \u2014\u00a0people in him, invested in him, and then everything he has done in Congress has benefited the Left.\u00a0The Democrats can always count on Romney\u2019s vote. Trump endorsed him both in 2012 and his bid to the Senate. Trump\u2019s endorsement in 2018 truly sealed the deal for him.<\/p>\n<p>Then, what did he do when he was at the helm? He fought Trump whenever he could. He voted for Trump to be impeached, and has literally spent nearly six years opposing the MAGA agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Why? Because Romney is a fraud. He lies, and he makes money. So in this circumstance, nobody is really the hero \u2014\u00a0least of all Romney. <\/p>\n<p>If anyone went up to Santos and said anything, You might respect it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you watch the State of the Union Tuesday night?
