Column: Heckling and Exploiting the State of the Union
On MSNBC, Jen Psaki replied that yes, the speech is “hugely important,” but “it doesn't have the time to touch on everything that is a priority.” That’s a weird answer, since Biden spoke for 62 minutes.

MSNBC’s Morning Joe decided on Wednesday to engage in comically dumb wishcasting about President Biden’s State of the Union address, insisting Tuesday’s speech was “brilliant,” “rallying,” a “return to normalcy” and “very unifying” as it showcased “the expanse of his personality in full blossom” and why Biden was made for this moment amid Russia’s war.
NewsBusters Podcast: 'Uncle Joe Is Back'? Or Is He Lost?
