Biden Tells Congress 'It's Never a Good Bet to Bet Against America'

 

Those who wish the United States ill should know "it's never ever a good bet to bet against America," President Joe Biden said during his State of the Union speech at the Capitol tonight.

 

The president highlighted U.S. economic progress, but also touched on the challenges posed by Russia's war on Ukraine and China's attempts to bend the world to its will.

 

Biden noted that when he gave his first State of the Union speech last year, it was just days after Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his troops into the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Then, it was unknown what would happen as Russia tried to erase the neighboring country.

 

The "brutal war" against Ukraine began with a murderous assault, "evoking images of the death and destruction Europe suffered in World War II," the president said.

 

He said the invasion has been "a test for the ages. A test for America. A test for the world."

 

Biden said that test was whether the nations of the world would stand by basic principles. "Would we stand for sovereignty? Would we stand for the right of people to live free from tyranny? Would we stand for the defense of democracy?" he asked.
