3. U.S. Legislative News. Tomorrow night, 2/24/2026, Trump will be giving his first State of the Union Address of his second term. Conservative media has been buzzing for days about how the Merchants of Depravity – Democrat Party members- will be behaving like spoiled, rotten brats. I am so “done” with these assclowns at this point. I hope the entire Democrat Party, including Democrat Supreme Court Justices, break decorum and just go express their dismay with conservative Christian values somewhere else. My heart ached last year when Trump made a speech addressing a joint session of Congress and Democrats made a show of NOT standing or applauding for a 13-year-old cancer patient who was given an honorary Secret Service award.
