| 0:00.0 | All right, hello everybody. Welcome to yet another Gaslit Nation bonus episode. Today we're |
| 0:12.0 | going to discuss Biden State of the Union address, which happened on Tuesday. We're also |
| 0:17.9 | going to get to the questions that have been sent in from you. Our wonderful Patreon subscribers. |
| 0:24.8 | So I'm going to just be clear. I didn't watch the speech. I was at a concert that my |
| 0:31.6 | daughter was giving. So I didn't see it live. And I have honestly found these state of |
| 0:36.3 | the Union speech is very painful to sit through for various reasons. I discussed this in |
| 0:41.3 | the regular episode how under Obama, you know, there's this constant feeling of, of |
| 0:46.4 | well of gaslighting of him describing in America that was wonderful and prosperous and that |

| 1:36.8 | for policy plans about the economy, sort of about gun control about issues. But all right, |
| 1:43.2 | I'm just going to read to you. This is what Biden said in his speech. This is a little |
| 1:47.6 | excerpt. He says, we're the only country that has emerged from every crisis we've ever |
| 1:53.9 | entered stronger than we got into it. Look folks, that's what we're doing again. Two years |
| 2:00.4 | ago, the economy was reeling. I stand here tonight after we've created with the help of |
