As we told you last night, President Biden mixed up Ukrainians and Iranians while talking about the Russian siege of Kyiv during his big SOTU speech:
Biden just called the Ukrainians, Iranians. The only mention Iran will get in this speech and it was by mistake.

But it was even worse than that. Check out Kamala Harris with the under-her-breath fact-check in real-time:
“Putin may circle key with tanks, but he’ll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people. He’ll never extinguish their love of freedom. And he will never, never weaken the resolve of the free world.”

It was a total “Veep” moment:
The high comedy was VP Harris trying to correct him and mouthed Ukrainians to him

And this was his *only* mention of Iran:
Other than "Iranians" gaffe, Biden didn't mention Iran. He also didn't mention North Korea. China was name-checked twice. Afghanistan War, a blip on the radar.

Even Code Pink is making fun of him:
Y'all, did Biden just misspeak and refer to Ukrainians as Iranians? #SOTU
— CODEPINK (@codepink) March 2, 2022
Imagine if the *other* guy had done this?
Sleepy Joe Biden during his State of the Union Speech yesterday referred to the Ukrainians as ‘Iranians’.
If this Trump there would be non-stop coverage.

We sense a pattern here:
Can't wait for all of the mainstream media coverage taking Biden to town for calling Ukrainians, Iranians, such as they did when George W Bush or Trump would misspeak. Can't wait…. #SOTU2022

Some think the elderly president said “Uranians,” which is even worse if you ask us:
Who are the Uranian people?
— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) March 2, 2022
Well, duh. Uranians are from the planet Uranus:
Okay I stand corrected, Biden didn’t say Iranians but Uranians. Aliens from Uranus (the planet and not any orifice) hate Putin with all their hearts.

Biden’s gaffe is playing big in Russia FWIW:
