President Joe Biden delivered the annual 'State of the Union' address to Congress on Tuesday in the United States. He gave a long speech of about 7 thousand 218 words. However, a Republican lawmaker walked out in the middle of the speech. She tried to stop him by shouting 'liar' at Biden.
Marjorie Taylor is a legislator in the House of Representatives, the lower house of Congress. He is an elected Congressman from the state of Georgia. Biden criticized the opposition lawmaker for interrupting him mid-speech. "Republicans want to threaten something like Social Security," he said.
However, there have been incidents of Biden's speech being disrupted. This time Biden was talking about the crisis created by the smuggling of a drug called Fentanyl in America. Fentanyl enters the United States in large quantities through the Mexican border. "It's your fault," shouted one Republican lawmaker, referring to Biden.
This is Biden's second State of the Union address since becoming President. The opposition Republican camp tried to stop Biden in various ways during his speech on Tuesday. In addition to shouting "liar" and "it's your fault" at the two lawmakers, Republicans booed and jeered.
In his State of the Union address, Biden urged a politically divided Congress to unite. Apart from this, Biden highlighted the achievements of his administration. He talks about economy, education, health, employment, foreign policy. In between, Republicans attempted to block several points.
