What Biden Didn't Say

Rapid Response

What Joe Biden left out of tonight’s primetime address tells you everything you need to know.

Biden’s remarks were an exercise in weakness — a projection of his inability to prioritize Americans’ safety at home and abroad.

He did not mention the southern border, which is being overrun by illegal immigrants in unprecedented numbers. He did not mention China, which is enriched and emboldened by every one of Biden's foreign policy failures. He did not mention Taiwan, whose risk of Chinese invasion grows as Biden does nothing to deter it.

Biden did little to demand the release of American hostages in Gaza, nor did he chastise the members of his own party for trafficking in antisemitism. Instead, he doubled down on a foreign policy of appeasement that has resulted in failure after failure around the world.

That U.S. forces near Baghdad were attacked while Biden spoke underscores the dangers of Biden’s weakness.

We’re less safe under Biden — and it’s because of Biden.
