President Biden’s fiery State of the Union address Thursday received mixed reviews as he criticized Republicans on abortion, aid to Ukraine and border issues. Without naming him, Biden targeted former President Trump, his likely rival in the 2024 election, igniting a general White House race, all of which will be the focus of this week’s Sunday show. It is highly likely that
A reinvigorated Biden referenced the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and the threat President Trump poses to American democracy. The 2024 general election season is starting to heat up, with two 2020 presidential candidates heading off for a rematch.

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) was one of three senators who drafted the failed bipartisan border agreement. It includes $20 billion for border security, gives the federal government temporary power to expel immigrants if daily border crossings exceed certain thresholds, and allows authorities to process asylum claims faster.

Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) and Mark Warner (D-Va.), along with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.), appeared on CBS’ “Face the… Appearing on “Nation”.
Following the speech, Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) delivered the Republican response. She received heavy criticism online for her melodramatic and unusual rebuttal. Britt will appear on “Fox News Sunday.”
Biden’s speech was expected to be a pivotal moment in the campaign, as polls this fall show him increasingly likely to face Trump. Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley suspended his campaign on Wednesday following a landslide defeat in the Super Tuesday elections across the United States.
