你可能错过的著名国情咨文时刻

2023-02-09 10:43 -ABC  -  363304

在任何一次国情咨文演讲后的第二天,总会有一些引人注目的时刻引起人们的关注,而今年的事件还有很多。

政治分歧是当天的秩序,数百万美国人看到热情的民主党人迅速给乔·拜登总统起立鼓掌,而共和党人似乎摇摇头,诘问和嘲笑。

但是也有团结的表现。

以下是你可能错过的一些时刻:

拜登向麦卡锡议长伸出橄榄枝

在开始讲话时,拜登承认了第118届国会带来的巨大变化,并伸出手与新任众议院议长凯文·麦卡锡握手。

拜登说:“议长先生,我不想败坏你的名声,但我期待着与你合作。”。

橄榄枝可能有助于缓和他们预期的强硬谈判提高债务上限和削减联邦开支。

拜登说:“对我的共和党朋友们来说,如果我们能够在上届国会中共同努力,我们没有理由不能在本届国会中共同努力并达成共识。”

严厉的言辞,但随后显示出在社会保障问题上的团结

众议院讨论最多的紧张时刻到来了总统坚持认为共和党中的“一些人”想要削减医疗保险和社会保障尽管他指出,他并不是说“大多数”共和党人希望这样做。

“一些共和党人——一些共和党人希望医疗保险和社会保障制度寿终正寝。我不是说是大多数。如果国会不能让这些项目保持现状,共和党人会说,我不是说你们中的大多数。我甚至不认为这有什么意义。”

共和党人跳了起来——几个人大喊“不,不,不!”佐治亚州煽动派众议员马乔里·泰勒·格林也在大喊:“骗子!”

麦卡锡坚持认为,在债务上限僵局中,社会保障不在“谈判桌上”。但其他人,如共和党参议员里克·斯科特(Rick Scott)和李政颖(在拜登发表评论时摇头)公开建议改变医疗保险和社会保障制度,包括将其私有化或提高退休年龄。

当总统利用这一政治机会将共和党人记录在案时,愤怒的情绪迅速改变。当他说医疗保险和社会保障应该被搁置时,大多数议员都站了起来。

“让我们都同意——我们显然也同意——让我们为老年人挺身而出……显然,这不会成为问题。”

“下个月当我提出我的财政计划时,我会请我的共和党朋友们也放下他们的计划。我是真心的。让我们一起坐下来,一起讨论我们共同的计划。就这么办吧。”

共和党嘲笑提到边境安全和芬太尼

在另一个充满敌意的时刻,拜登提到了第一夫人包厢中的一位客人:一名男子,他20岁的女儿死于芬太尼过量,然后指出芬太尼每年导致7万多名美国人死亡,并呼吁开展一场阻止销售和贩运该药物的运动。

这一提及引起了共和党人的强烈反对,他们高呼“这是你的错!”

后来,当拜登再次呼吁禁止攻击性武器时,科罗拉多州共和党众议员劳伦·波伯特(Lauren Boebert)摇了摇头。

奠基仪式上见

拜登对共和党人进行了微妙的抨击,他们投票反对11月通过的跨党派基础设施一揽子计划,指出他们也可能是已经在全国开始的2万多个项目的资金受益者。

“我仍然被要求为这些地区的项目提供资金,但别担心,”他说。“我承诺我会成为所有美国人的总统。我们将资助这些项目。我们在奠基仪式上见。”

拜登与成员的孩子见面

当拜登总统走出会议厅时,加利福尼亚州民主党众议员吉米·戈麦斯(Jimmy Gomez)走到拜登跟前,让他与他的小儿子霍奇(Hodge)进行视频通话。

戈麦斯后来在推特上分享了一张Facetime的截图,写作:" FaceTimed with @POTUS。晚安!#嘿霍奇#SOTU "

拜登似乎还与纽约州民主党众议员孟昭文的家人进行了视频互动,后者将互动内容上传到了推特。

我:“孩子们,请拿起电话,我要和总统见个面。”请穿着得体。"

男生:“我必须换下睡衣吗?”

Notable State of the Union moments you might have missed

The day after any State of the Union address there's always buzz over the notable moments -- and this year's affair had plenty to spare.

Political divisiveness was the order of the day as millions of Americans saw enthusiastic Democrats quick to give President Joe Biden standing ovations, while Republicans seemed to shake their heads, heckle and jeer just as much.

But there were also displays of unity.

Here are some moments you might have missed:

Biden extends olive branch to Speaker McCarthy

As he began his remarks, Biden acknowledged the big changes that came with the 118th Congress, reaching out to shake the hand of new House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

"Mr. Speaker, I don't want to ruin your reputation, but I look forward to working with you," Biden said.

That olive branch may help temper their expected toughnegotiationsover raising the debt ceiling and cutting federal spending.

"To my Republican friends, if we could work together in the last Congress, there is no reason we can't work together and find consensus in this Congress as well," Biden said.

Harsh words but then a show of unity on Social Security

The most talked-about tense moment in the House chamber came when thepresident insisted "some" in the GOP wanted to cut Medicare and Social Security, although he noted he wasn't saying the "majority" of Republicans wanted to do so.

"Some Republicans -- some Republicans want Medicare and Social Security to sunset. I'm not saying it's the majority. If Congress doesn't keep the programs where they are they go well, the Republicans say I'm not saying there's a majority of you. I don't even think it's even significant."

Republicans jumped to their feet -- several shouting "NO NO NO!" and Georgia firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene among those shouting, "Liar!"

McCarthy has insisted Social Security is not "on the table" in the debt ceiling standoff. But others, like GOP Sens. Rick Scott and Mike Lee -- shown shaking his head during Biden's comment -- have openly suggested changing Medicare and Social Security, including privatizing it or raising the retirement age.

The angry mood changed quickly when the president used it as a political opportunity to put Republicans on the record. Most of the chamber stood when he said Medicare and Social Security should be off the table.

"Let's all agree – and we apparently are – let's stand up for seniors…apparently, it's not going to be a problem."

"Next month when I offer my fiscal plan, I ask my Republican friends to lay down their plan as well. I really mean it. Let's sit down together and discuss our mutual plans together. Let's do that."

GOP jeering at the mention of border security and fentanyl

In another rancorous moment, Biden mentioned a guest in the first lady's box: a man whose 20 year-old daughter died of a fentanyl overdose, before noting that fentanyl is killing more than 70,000 Americans a year and calling for a campaign to stop the sale and trafficking of the drug.

The mention prompted backlash from Republicans, who shouted "It's your fault!"

Later, Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., was see shaking her head when Biden renewed his call for a ban on assault weapons.

'See you at the groundbreaking'

Biden took a subtle swipe at the Republicans who voted against the November passage of a sweeping bipartisan infrastructure package, noting that they could also be beneficiaries of the funding of more than 20,000 projects that have already begun across the nation.

"I still get asked to fund the projects in those districts, but don't worry," he said. "I promised I'd be a president for all Americans. We'll fund these projects. And I'll see you at the groundbreaking."

Newly independent Sinema sits with Romney and Manchin

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema -- the Arizona lawmakerfreshly registeredas an independent after leaving the Democratic Party -- listened to Biden's speech while seated among Republican colleagues, including Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, Sens. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska; Todd Young, R-Ind.; and Steve Daines, R-Mont.

Also in the group -- Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin.

Biden get on Facetime with member's children

As President Biden made his way out of the chamber, Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a California Democrat, went up to Biden to have him video call with his infant son, Hodge.

Gomez later shared a screenshot from the Facetime on Twitter,writing: "FaceTimed with @POTUS. Goodnight! #HeyHodge #SOTU"

Biden also seemed to jump on a FaceTime with the family of New York Democratic Rep. Grace Meng, who posted the interaction toTwitter.

"Me: "Boys, pls pick up phone I'm gonna try to FaceTime you with the President. And please dress appropriately."

Boys: "Do I have to change out of my pajamas?"
