Illinois Rep Tells Biden to Pound Sand, Refuses to Attend SOTU and Hear ‘Applause for Lies’

Republican Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) will not be attending Democrat President Joe Biden’s upcoming State of the Union Address because she doesn’t want to “listen to him lie about the damage he has caused to our country while the left-wing media and members of Congress applaud his lies.”

Miller released a statement where she references Biden’s comments about retaining classified documents as vice president, his family’s business dealings with China, and gas prices.

“Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi ripped up President Trump’s State of the Union Address, which celebrated a secure border, support for our military, and American energy independence,” Miller said.

“Joe Biden’s presidency has been filled with lie after lie, especially lies about the border being secure, inflation being temporary, and the DOJ targeting parents for attending school board meetings.

“I will not be attending Biden’s State of the Union to listen to him lie about the damage he has caused to our country while the left-wing media and members of Congress applaud his lies.

“I will be giving my guest ticket to Air Force Colonel (Ret) Mark A. Hurley of Sherman, Illinois, who retired from the military because of Biden’s unjust COVID vaccine mandate.

“Biden has still failed to provide accountability for his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan more than two years ago.”

Hurley said:

“It’s an honor to be able to personally thank Congresswoman Miller and Speaker McCarthy for their efforts to end the COVID vaccine requirement for military members.

“These legislative leaders continued the battle we did not have time to complete through our normal chain of command.

“We are truly grateful for the thousands of military careers they have saved.”

Miller also wants the government to block foreign purchases of farmland.

The congresswoman, who raises grain and cattle with her husband, introduced legislation in 2022 to ban China from buying up American land.

She said:

“We have an inherent responsibility to put our own citizens first, and the National Security Moratorium on Foreign Purchases of U.S. Land does just that.

“In recent years, we have seen foreign investors flood the market, increasing home prices for Americans.

“This is especially an issue in Rural America where the Chinese Communist Party is attempting to buy land in our country, with an emphasis on farmland, to gain strategic leverage over the United States.”
