How many people watched Trump's State of the Union address?
Trump drew an estimated 32.6 million viewers for his 2026 State of the Union address. Here's a closer look at SOTU ratings over the years.
Trump's long partisan rant drew fewer viewers than his previous SOTU speeches and fewer than any other recent president.
"The number of viewers was lower than in any of Trump's first five addresses to Congress or previous State of the Union speeches in his previous administration."

Despite infighting, it's been a surprisingly productive 2 years for Democrats
Despite more than a handful of setbacks, President Biden has delivered on several major promises since 2021, some with bipartisan support. Those compromises could be harder with the new Congress.
That's nonsense. Here's a list of positive accomplishments under just the Biden administration...

...there are many similar factual lists from other Democratic administrations.
We must elect enough Democrats in November to win back Congress or the GOP may destroy our democracy.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.
It doesn't get more serious than this...
"The Justice Department has withheld Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds. They also removed some documents from the public database..."
What does GOP leadership know?

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.
The US Justice Department withheld testimony that Donald Trump sexually abused a girl when she was 13 or 14 - according to a source who viewed unredacted Epstein files.
This is the worst scandal in US history and should be the biggest news story on the planet right now.

After pointing at Democrats and saying they are "crazy," Trump says, "Weโre lucky we have a country, with people like this. Democrats are destroying our country, but we stopped it, just in the nick of time."
Just insanely destructive. Indefensible โย but Republicans stood and clapped.

Lying for 2 hours straight won't solve any of the issues he's been underwater on for months. Everything is more expensive, corruption is rampant, and the Epstein Class gets richer while you get screwed. The lies you heard tonight wonโt matter in November.

Impeaching all of Congress at once would lead to immediate chaos. That's why we have elections. Impeachment exists for those who, like Trump, steal, violate serious laws or commit treason. I strongly doubt he will finish his current term. He will be 80 in June and looks very sickly.

Yet another ignorant Trump appointee in a job he can't do. Before Trump appointed him, Patel said the FBI should be destroyed. He's working on it.
He's fired many competent agents and hired loyal Trumpsters to replace them.
I look forward to his criminal trial when this Trump nightmare finally ends.

I am definitely boycotting Trump's hour+ litany of lies and BS this evening. He thrives on high ratings and I will not give him mine.
If he has anything important or positive to say (highly doubtful) I will hear about it on the news afterwards.

NPR, MS NOW: Trump-related files missing from DOJ's Epstein file release
NPR and MS NOW report that files related to President Trump are missing from the Department of Justice's release of the Epstein documents. MS NOW Senior Legal Reporter Lisa Rubin, MS NOW Senior White ...
FLAG:ย Trump-related files are missing from DOJ's Epstein release.
There's at least one witness for whom three 2019 FBI interviews are missing.
That woman is the same person who, in a 2025 FBI presentation, is identified to have accused Trump of a sexual assault when she was between 13 and 15.

Angus King is not a Democrat. He's an independent who caucuses with Democrats
While this is a subtle difference, his decision to boycott Trump's State of the Union speech therefore means a just little bit more

Ex-ICE instructor testifies that agency slashed officer training, lied to Congress โ The Washington Post
A former instructor for Immigration and Customs Enforcement told congressional Democrats the agency has cut โvital classesโ from mandatory training for recruits.
Lawyer who resigned from ICE last week testified that ICE recruits are not being trained properly.
Firearms classes on how to properly use a weapon as well as courses on the Constitution and protesters rights have been cut to meet quotas.
