Ted Cruz slams Biden's address as: An 'unapologetic partisan speech'

here with reaction and by the way biden's joint address to congress senator ted cruz senator cruz before we get to the socialist utopian uh authoritarian statism of joe biden i think we got to talk about the star of the night and that would be your colleague our friend and that would be senator tim scott i think tim did a terrific job i'm glad he gave the response tim is someone who understands firsthand that that that what the american free enterprise system is all about is the ability to rise from nothing to achieve the american dream and as tim pointed out the extraordinary journey that his grandfather saw going from cotton to congress uh in in in one lifetime in 94 years it really embodies who we are as a nation yes senator let me get into some of this if you want to call feel free we'll take you off the screen for a second phil you know oh we could have taken him off the screen uh but if you if you look at where we are i think america's at a crossroads you know you i would argue we've had in our lifetime three waves of conservatism reagan the contract with america and the make america great again america first agenda all things that we agree on in every case that agenda those policies work the history of socialism you know well is one of failure of one of unfulfilled promises more poverty and then it's a question of how much freedom you give to the government in the name of false promises thoughts well look i think the speech tonight you could sum up in three words boring but radical the speech by design was was calm and dulcet tones you know i challenge you to remember a single line from the speech i mean it was monotone the the chamber was nearly empty and and that really has characterized the first hundred days of joe biden that that he's tried to say nothing notable he's tried to tweet nothing notable i think that made the political decision that that that many people were were tired of of the drama of the previous four years and they wanted something calm and so but joe is deliberately being boring but the substance of what he's saying is radical this is the most radical first hundred days of any president in the history of this country this makes barack obama look mild and moderate you look at what joe biden stood up there tonight and said he said number one we're raising taxes we're raising every tax if you pay taxes in america your taxes are going up he said that they're going to raise individual income taxes they're going to raise corporate income taxes they're going to raise taxes on small businesses they're going to raise capital gains taxes they're going to raise the death tax every tax is going up and it's to the tune of trillions of dollars look at what joe biden didn't say tonight he didn't say we're opening up small businesses he didn't say we're getting people back to work he didn't say we're getting kids back in school completely missing from his remarks tonight what was the outrage that more than half of the kids in america are not in person in school five days a week and he provided zero solution to the crisis at the border that he caused he pretended it didn't exist this was all about trillions of dollars in spending massive job killing regulations trillions of dollars in taxes and it was it was an unapologetic partisan speech there wasn't even the tiniest fig leaf of an outreach to to the other side you know it was 100 days ago he gave his inauguration we talked about unity he talked about common ground all of that was gone tonight tonight this was an agenda that was set by elizabeth warren and bernie sanders and aoc it's the radicals and socialists and what did he talk about also the corrupt politicians act h.r won a federal takeover of elections to keep democrats in power forever and he didn't once reject the radical democratic plan we saw introduced this last week to pack the u.s supreme court with four new liberals this was a frightening speech and it was a frightening speech masquerading in in really boring tones pack the courts legislative filibuster dc stated all of these radical things you know even democratic senator who's up for re-election in 2022 mark kelly said what i didn't hear tonight was a plan to address the immediate crisis at the border and i'll continue to hold this administration accountable that sounds like a senator to me that's afraid of the coming election uh senator ted cruz that's what i hear from kelly tonight senator kelly tonight oh sure mark kelly has voted identically to bernie sanders and it's actually a contrast you know kirsten cinema the other democrat from arizona has shown some real courage she and joe manchin are the two democrats who are the only thing standing between ending the filibuster making dc estate packing the courts the corrupt politicians act and mark kelly hasn't shown a fraction of the guts that kirsten cinema has shown or joe manchin has shown you know i got to tell you sean the most radical line tonight was when joe biden said we the people is the government no joe you seriously misunderstand the constitution we the people is not the government we are not a country of dictators in washington running the people we the people is the people damn it who are in charge of the government whose freedom you're taking away whose liberty you're stripping away and it showed the arrogance of the hard left that they think that le estas he is the state is what he said and he's we the people i mean holy cow that was radical and and and that's where where today's democrats are well said senator ted cruz texas we appreciate you being with us now
