President Biden is not just hitting it out of the park. He's doing so after expanding the park.

Another brilliant speech from him, and one that expands on American dreams, American compassion, and American ideals.

He's a true progressive. And as he reaches for that progress, he's also reaching out to everyone.

I love this address.

I know GOP politicians and pundits have to hate it, and worry more and more about him. But he's gone over their obstructionist heads to the American people.

We are so very lucky to have Joe Biden as our president now.

of Biden's tonight. It was also deeply compassionate. And,strikingly it was achievable. He was clear & in command. What it lacked in flamboyance it made up for in consequence and strong leadership."

and I’ve been covering them for a long time. #Biden and his team and administration delivered. The right will hate it, which will be evidence of how thorough, powerful and politically shrewd it was."
