Description

Philip DeFranco watches and breaks down President Trump's 2026 State of the Union address LIVE. Trump delivers his first State of the Union of his second term tonight at 9 PM EST before the 119th Congress — and there's a LOT to watch for. Tonight's speech comes after a massive week: the Supreme Court struck down Trump's tariffs in a 6-3 ruling (including his own appointees Gorsuch and Barrett voting against him), new 10% across-the-board tariffs were imposed today, a partial government shutdown is in its second week, U.S. military buildup around Iran is escalating, and 6 in 10 Americans say the country is worse off than last year. Expected topics tonight: — Economy, affordability, and his response to the Supreme Court tariff ruling — Iran nuclear tensions and potential military strikes — Immigration and the DHS funding standoff — New tax cut proposals (personal and corporate) — AI/tech data center energy announcement — Ukraine (4th anniversary of Russia's invasion is today) Notable guests: Erika Kirk (widow of Charlie Kirk), U.S. Men's Olympic Hockey team (gold medalists), Epstein survivors invited by House Democrats Democratic response by Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger. 25+ Democrats boycotting to attend "People's State of the Union" counter-event.

"no tax on tip, no tax on overtime" He doesn't even know its a tax credit under a certain amount and we're still taxed on it. No tax means we don't lose the money in the first place.

This reminds me of how they treat Kim Jong-un in North Korea, with all the standing ovations after every comment.

The standing ovation after every comment, the chanting of "USA", and the celebration over trampling of human rights is basically 1:1 with 1930's fascism

Mens hockey team should be embarrassed to be paraded around like this. Glad I watched the women's division and skipped their final game.
