Im Laura Ingraham this the is Ingraham Angle from washington. Fiery, feisty, phoney. Thats the focus of tonights angle. Now, its been a wild week and now its flashback friday. We come together as one nation bringing america together, uniting our people union nightd our nation. With unity we can do great things, important things. Unity. Yurnt. Unity. We know he didnt really mean any of that at least he tried to sound gracious. But, last night last. Threat to democracy must be defended. My predecessor and some of you have here seek to bury the truth about january 6th. In a literal sense, history is watching. History is watching. My god, what freedom else would you take away. Putin of russia is on the march, invading ukraine and sowing chaos throughout europe and beyond. My predecessor failed the most basic president ial deuteronomy that he owes to American People, the duty to care. Laura the State Of The Union is supposed to be a report to congress about how the country is doing under his leadership. Its not supposed to be a rant against your political opponent and those who support him. Of course, theres an important context here courtesy of nbc. President joe bidens team is increasingly taking extraordinary steps to minimize disruptions from propalestinian protests at his events by making them smaller withholding their precise locations from the media and the public until he arrives, avoiding College Campuses and, in at least one instance, considering hiring a private company to vet attendees. Okay, just because they are afraid biden will crumble and stumble if he is confronted at a Real Campaign event, it doesnt give them license to abuse the constitutional mandate to report on the State Of The Union. Now, just for a moment imagine if donald trump had delivered that kind of state of the Union Address during his presidency. The press would have gone berserk. They would have said vicious, no decorum, no sense of proprietor. An abuse of the forum, polarizing. But it all played out as i predicted last night prediction, in a few hours, the media will be la vising praise on biden. You will hear people saying that it was amazing how biden knocked it out of the park. How he put to rest the doubts about his stamina. He nailed it. And then, like clockwork, oh my god he knocked it out of the park. I thought he was fabulous. He just completely blew away the biden is too old issue. You saw him really showing his political acumen and his political muscle. This was this was a tour de force. He had fraziers left hook. It was it was his best speech of his presidency by far. Strongest speech at one point today msnbc and cnn used the same adjective at the same time. Fiery. Well, i told you. Think are spinning themselves dizzy we will so soon when real polling come out. In the long term i dont think it helped him at all. I wish he would give speeches like that every week. After all i love the simpsons. Hey, everybody, an old man is talking. Grandpas the name, did you know this tree dates back to Frontier Times . Shut up whos laughing now. Ha ha ha ha. Shut up. Laura joe biden the brawler tough guy image. Its just farcical. I mean, does anyone on planet earth think Vladimir Putin or president xi watching that speech last night they thought to themselves oh, wow, we need to worry about that guy. My message to President Putin who i have known for a long time is simple we will not walk away. [applause] [cheers and applause] we will not bow down. I will not bow down. [applause] laura first of all if he did bow down anyones guest whether he could stand back up. But the truth is bidens power doesnt come from his personality. It comes from his rich donors and doj and deep state, harassing his political adversaries and, it comes from the media. No one fears biden himself. , his numbers as usual didnt add up last night. He claimed a new billionaires tax that he supports would give him 500 billion over 10 years. Okay. 500 billion, 10 years, thats less money in 10 years than were projected to pay in interest on our debt in one year. So, this wasnt a speech. It was kind of a letter to santa. While were at it, i want to give Public School teachers a raise. We are launching the first ever White House Initiative on Womens Health research. Bell. I want to provide annual tax credit Give Americans 400 a month for the next two years. [bell] im directing the u. S. Military to lead an Emergency Mission to establish a temporary pier in the mediterranean on the coast of gaza. [bell] laura now, look, i guess he is going to do the thing in gaza. The rest of it was just lines in a speech put there because some political consultant overpaid, thought that it would help with one constituency or another. None of it had anything to do with the Serious Problems facing the nation. Were not going to lower inflation by borrowing more money. Thats how we got into this mess in the first place. Now, four years ago, the case for biden was that he was going to calm everything down. He would get us back to normal and, remember that . It was going to be about unity. But, now, the idea that biden will become a respected strong leader because he yells . And he tries to intimidate conservatives or, i dont know, even putin or xi is just absurd. Not a Single Person who opposes bidens reelection watched that speech and felt less confident of trumps chances. It all seemed like a Big Act And A Bad One at that. And thats the angle. Joining me now newt gingrich, former speaker of the house, fox news contributor. Newt, the speech itself was, you know, a panoply of, you know, viciousness and hateful thoughts about trump or maga or what it represents. But, was there some overriding, inspiring moment that really grabbed you . Well, i think at the end when he left, i thought that was inspirational. Look, this is the most hateful, divisive, and destructive speech ever given at a State Of The Union. Literally. I went back and this morning and read Harry Trumans 1948 State Of The Union, cleanup is stateman like, patriotic, unifying because he came very tough partisan in september. In january and february he was the president of the united states. This wars the Democratic Campaign committees speech and it was vicious. It was hateful. To lecture the Supreme Court is so far beyond the pale that its frankly worthy of censure. To start his speech with three consecutive attacks on his political opponent tells you both how desperate they are, how lacking in any scruples they are. And i really do think this is a speech which will lead an immense number ever americans to decide that they will not under any circumstance ever support joe biden for anything. Laura now, newt, nbc socalled president ial historian said that the speech reminded him of another president. Who does that remind you and me of . Ha and that is harry truman in 1948. You know, the beginning of that year down to the summer even democrats were saying truman is a loser. We better find someone else to run for us. But, all through that fall suddenly not the meek and polite truman of the first several years. It was give them hell, harry. The point this guy didnt go back and read trumans speech. Speech truman all through the spring was the president of the united states. In the fall, he was the democratic nominee. That historian clearly isnt very competent and didnt go back and look at truman. Truman would have never given this speech. As the a historian himself, he knew it was beneath the dignity of the president. It was a betrayal of his constitutional responsibility and it was an insult. Notice that, by the way, biden never really gets strong emotionally about putin, about houthis, about iran, but he gets very strong emotionally when he is attacking americans if you go back and play it every really emotional attack in that speech is against his fellow americans, which is a really bad sign. Laura completely twisted. And, newt, we understand the president spoke about 90 minutes ago in philadelphia and he kicked off his big Campaign Speech this way. Folks, our freedoms really are on the ballot this november. Donald trump and the maga republicans are trying to take away our freedoms. S that not an exsas exexaggerat. Guess what . We will not let him. First of all im not sure what that means. In the voters vote for donald trump or the Supreme Court. I mean are think saying they are not going to accept the will of the voters . Sound like that to me. Part of the reason he was lecturing the court is recently in the colorado case the Supreme Court voted by 90. The most liberal and radical members. 90 democracy wasnt donald trump. The threat to democracy was the Democratic Party i think that ought to tell most americans the real threat to Democracy In America is the Democratic Party, department of justice, and joe biden. Laura newt, its always great, great to see you on days and nights like this. Thanks so much. We kept hearing how biden was going to draw a stark contrast between himself and President Trump last night. And i have to give him credit. He actually did this at least when it came to how two president s treat our military. America is safer today than when i took office. [laughter] the year before i took Office Murder rates quentd up. [shouting] 38 they went up. Marine, the biggest increase in history. [shouting] laura the man you just saw getting arrested for shouting is gold star dad steve nikoui, his son marine Lance Corporal nikoui one of the Service Members killed during bidens disastrous afghanistan pullout in 2021. Steves other son dakota committed suicide a year later. At a Memorial Service for the Fallen Marine is where it took place. Now, this family lost two sons both in their 20s as a result of bidens failed policies and, steve refuses to let the administration forget that. Now, the family of marine Sergeant Nicole gee, who also was killed at abby gate, couldnt even get that much attention. President biden, hes often called the consoler in chief. He does talk to families who have lost loved ones because of his own experiences. Have you experienced that from him as you have been coping with the death of nicole . No. No. Have you spoken to him . No. He has not reached out to our family. We have actually reached out to the white house and have never heard back. Laura wait a second. They couldnt carve out 10 minutes for a Gold Star Family but President Biden could sit down for a zoom call with actors who played president s . Must have been for at least an hour for for some promo shoot . Compare bidens approach to our Military Heros to President Trumps. Amy, your Family Sacrifice makes it possible for all of our families to live in safety and in peace and we want to thank you. Thank you, amy. [applause] but amy, there is one more thing, tonight we have a very special surprise. I am thrilled to inform you that your husband is back from deployment. He is here with us tonight. And we couldnt keep him waiting any longer. [applause] welcome home, sergeant williams. Thank you very much. Laura now, thats a president. Coming up, what did r. F. K.

Now my predecessor, a former republican president tells putin, quote do whatever the hell you want. [boos] thats a quote. My predecessor came to office determined to see roe v. Wade overturned. My predecessor. And my predecessor. My predecessor, including my predecessor. Laura biden spent most of last nights State Of The Union acting like trump was voldemort, he who must not be named my next guest who is running for president has a different vision for america. A Growing Number of americans are rejecting the divisiveness. They are ledy to unite, to rebuild this country and to fulfill the promise of the america of my youth. They are ready to vote for something. Thats the State Of The Union that i want to bring you today to rebuild, to end the forever foreign wars. To clean out the corrupt washington assessment. And to turn again toward peace, freedom, good health, and prosperity. Laura joining me now is robert f. Kennedy jr. , 2024 independent president ial candidate. Robert, your reaction to biden last night, especially going hard on ukraine at the top and going all in on putins rolling through, you know, europe like hitler and im pair phrasing, obviously. I mean, i thought the speech in general, i agree with some of the commentators that you have had that it was hyper partisan. That it was more like a, you know, President Biden when he came in promised to unify the country and this was more of a Campaign Stump Speech that you would give to a red meat crowd during the last two weeks of the campaign rather than that kind of statesman like unifying speech that we want to see and the nation expects and that the world expects from the state of the Union Address where you want to see you want something that inspires priode in our country and in our country and all around the globe the billions of people around the world and we want to showcase the best of our country and not make it a partisan slug fest in terms of ukraine i disagree with the Comic Book Characterizations that President Biden has made this is a war that should have been settled because we now know because we now know from israeli Prime MinisterNaftali Bennett from the turkish Prime Minister premier Ahmed Erdogan that Peace Agreement was initialed by both sides by zelenskyy and by putins side. Putin was withdrawing troops from kyiv when Vice President sense Boris Yeltsin over there to tear up this agreement. This was not about stopping putin from rampaging across earth it is a war about the extension of nato into ukraine, which we should not be doing. Our greatest diplomats have condemned that it was a mistake. President biden did mention one issue that he has not mentioned before that i was very happy about which is the Housing Crisis in this country the fact that young people cant get into a home, his allusion, however, i think, was, i would say, a cynical solution, which is a 10,000 gift for the next two years, in other words from, now to the election. Laura the problem not to interrupt the problem is inflation. Rents have been high for some time but they skyrocketed when he he could have just opened the economy in January Of 2021 and it we would have been off to the races. Instead he borrowed trillions of dollars more. Printed a lot more money, that helped drive inflation. And drove up the cost of everything. So, its easy for him to say now oh, inflation is high we have got to do something. His policies are the primary driver right now of the cost of rent and every other thing that people buy. And he didnt really want to touch any of that. No, i would agree with you. Got a 34 trillion debt and over the last 100 days we have added a trillion dollars to that and that is unsustainable. We are now paying more, the service on that debt than we are for our military budget. And if interesting rates go up, we could within 10 years, we will be paying basically every dollar collected on taxes could conceivably be going to service the debt. There is nobody who is taking this problem seriously. You are right about inflation contributing to the housing, price of the Housing Stock, laura. The Housing Stock is goi
