You wrote the whole thing.

He was referring to the militarys strike on the balloon off the coast of South Carolina.

We face serious challenges across the world.

PREVIOUSLY:At a few points, President Joe Biden was heckled by some Republicans with shouts of liar.

Instead of making the wealthy pay their fair share, some Republicans want Medicare and Social Security to sunset.

Im not saying its the majority, Biden said.

Among those shouting liar was Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), wearing a fur-collared coat.

Ill give you a copy of the proposal.

Republicans continued to shout, with some again saying liar.

That means Congress doesnt vote.

Im glad to see.

And I tell you.

I enjoy conversion, he said.

The chamber erupted into cheering and applause, with Democrats standing up followed by Republicans.

We got unanimity, Biden said.

Then he reemphasized the point, and again got members of both parties on their feet.

Lets stand up for seniors.

Lets stand up and show them.

We will not cut Social Security.

We will not cut Medicare.

But Scottinsistedthat he did not want to sunset those programs.

I’m not saying it’s the majority.“Rep.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: “Liar!

Biden opened his speech with some gestures to the GOP, congratulatingKevin McCarthyon his speakership.

Members of both parties stood in applause.

But he was particularly strident in vowing to block GOP efforts to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act.

As my old football coach used to say, good luck in your senior year, Biden said.

He got some of the biggest cheers from fellow Democrats as he called for a billionaire minimum tax.

No billionaire should pay a lower tax rate than a school teacher or firefighter, Biden said.

He got some boos from Republicans as he addressed the deficit.

The people sent us a clear message.

This is a blue-collar blueprint to rebuild America and make a real difference in your lives.

He also plans to declare that Covid no longer controls our lives and that democracy remains unbowed and unbroken.

The latter is a reference to the January 6th attack on the Capitol.

The story of America is a story of progress and resilience, Biden plans to say.

We are the only country that has emerged from every crisis stronger than when we entered it.

That is what we are doing again.

He also plans to call for limits overall on the personal data that companies collect for targeted advertising.

With more surely to come, Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled for an interview onCBS Morningson Wednesday.

A White House spokesman was mum about it when asked during a press call earlier today.

Whats less easy to predict is the ultimate impact of State of the Union speeches themselves.

Most read like laundry lists of accomplishments and goals, and fade into memory.

Pelosi herself will be interviewed onCNNs post-speech coverage and onMorning Joeon Wednesday morning.

Meanwhile, Arkansas Gov.

TV networks have set up cameras surrounding Statuary Hall.
