When President Biden delivers his State of the Union address, he’ll speak in front of nearly every influential federal official in Washington. But at least one top official is not expected to be in the building: the designated survivor.

When President Joe Biden delivers his State of the Union address on Tuesday evening, he’ll speak in front of nearly every influential federal official in Washington – including members of Congress, top military brass, US Supreme Court justices and senior officials within his administration.

A Justice Department head has been selected for the role three times. The secretaries of Interior and Agriculture tie for the most frequent designated survivor appointments, with seven designations each. And while they’re further down the line of succession, no Labor or Education secretary is known to have served as a designated survivor.

Politics is harming our country and the psyche of its citizenry.

The corrupt cable news network cnn is the 24 hour LIE network! They all think that the American people are all stupid?

I wonder if he will mention the Chinese balloon. If so, what words will he use to refer to it? Up until now, with *absolutely* zero proof other than it happening to be flying over sensitive states, our entire media have referred to it as a 'spy balloon.' They ought to be ashamed

''the designated survivor'' --- we(the little people) have no idea who is running the country now. --- possibly Klaus Schwab or someone in the new world ordered --- thats probably a good thing (think the NucFootball)

I don’t care. People are dying around the world.
