Well, Liz Peek is one of the greatest columnists in America. You can read her columns at The Hill or Fox News.com. And, of course, you see her all over the Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network. Liz Peek, how you doing? I'm terrific. Thank you. How about yourself? I'm good. Hey, you wrote some great columns about the State of the Union speech. Normally

after a State of the Union speech, all you see are the fact checkers going to work. Were they on vacation this week?

0:26.3

I didn't see any fact checking. Yeah, like when Biden talks about how he's really become a deficit hawk and he's, you know, bringing the deficit down. Yeah, it's only because he hasn't been able to pass all the bills he wants to pass.

Look, I thought the State of the Union speech was really uninspiring. Obviously, he took time

1:39.8

is united in stopping this atrocity that's taking place.

1:43.9
