Joe Biden urges Republicans to work with him as he addresses a divided Congress in Washington.
On Tuesday evening, Joe Biden delivered his third address to Congress - marking the halfway point in his first term in office.
He then spent the first part of his State of the Union address reflecting this new political reality in Washington. The president boasted about the bipartisan accomplishments during his first two years in office. He noted co-operation on infrastructure spending, high-tech investment in microchip manufacturing, military aid to Ukraine, federal protections for gay marriage and electoral reform, among other topics.
On that topic, Mr Biden and House Republicans are engaging in a high-stakes game of chicken. And the president, in his speech, showed no sign of blinking - and may have poked his Republican counterparts in the eyes. The fight over the debt limit is just beginning - and bipartisan co-operation will almost certainly take a back seat until the storm has passed.Mr Biden unveiled a number of new and rehashed proposals during his presidential address, many of which have little chance of becoming law with Republican control of Congress.
American politicians may not be able to agree on how to address police brutality and gun violence, but no one likes Ticketmaster "convenience" charges.While the Chinese surveillance balloon was a huge story in America over the weekend, it received barely a mention from the president, in the bottom third of his speech.
