This afternoon, President Biden delivered a dishonest and incoherent address about a new pro-abortion executive order during which there were more angry swipes at Supreme Court conservatives.
This Court has made it clear it will not protect the rights of women.
I will. That’s why today I'm signing an Executive Order to protect access to reproductive health care.

Biden complains Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wad was an "exercise in raw political power."

However, Biden led things off with some economic claims. The president began his address by doing what he always does: Gaslighting like crazy:
BIDEN: "I know times are tough. Prices are too high. Families are facing a cost of living crunch. But today's economic news confirms the fact that my economic plan is moving this country in a better direction." pic.twitter.com/gzpdy6m8yI

Remember Biden and his defenders saying presidents can’t affect gas prices? That’s the rule when prices are going up (or blaming Putin of course), but when there’s a slight drop, suddenly it’s “I did that”:
Joe Biden boasts that gas prices have fallen for 25 days in a row

Gas is still around five bucks a gallon in many areas (or even more) but they’re already bragging about it dropping a few cents?

Also try not to cry.
These MF’s really taking a victory lap over the jobs report? I would love more than anything to hear him and Kamala try to explain their “economic plan.” https://t.co/T2R0vqWiEw

Biden has literally said the misery is part of the “incredible transition.”
The direction Biden is moving this country is off a cliff. https://t.co/o4UBFwZTkW

The only reason the country isn’t worse off economically is that Biden’s been blocked from implementing the rest of his spend-a-palooza agenda.
