The U.S. Constitution is quite clear about a speech first coined by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934 as the annual State of the Union Address. It is a staple of American politics. As such, politicos, pundits, and the public have come to expect this message given by the president of the United States to Congress, usually before the end of February each year. This report detailing the current state of the country has been delayed by several presidents but rarely eliminated altogether; only two have missed it – William Henry Harrison and James Garfield.
Will Joseph R. Biden join their ranks?
History buffs maintain that an official State of the Union Address is not “delivered during the first year of a new president’s first term in office.” Instead, the speech is known as “an address to the joint session of Congress.” Semantics aside, most presidents have broadcast a message resembling the State of the Union since 1923, when Calvin Coolidge delivered his address via radio. Since then, with the notable exception of Jimmy Carter, the commander in chief has given this speech in person before a nationally televised audience.
Some new presidents have stepped up to the microphone as late as February 28, and Mr. Biden’s was tentatively set for February 23, according to both the Associated Press and PBS – but that scheduled date has come and gone.
Whatever could be the problem?
We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
