Sexy manatee and music back. Really big deal. Thanks, dana. Good evening, welcome to washington. Im bret baier. Breaking tonight, President Biden is three hours away from what critics and supporters are calling one of the most important speeches of his political career. The incumbent president trying to fend off his predecessor and potential successor must prove to the American People he is not too old, too infirm or too out of touch on policies important to americans to justify a second term. He must also lay out a vision for a second term that his Campaign Hopes can prompt a reversal of his recent dismal poll numbers. The state of the Union Address can be seen right here live at 9 00 p. M. Eastern time. Were just now getting a sneak peek at a few elements of the president s speech. White house correspondent peter doocy starts us off with that live from the north lawn.

The most states, the most delegates. The most votes on the line as both parties march towards a 2020 rematch it looks like. At this hour polls are closed in virginia and vermont. Vermont could be nikki haleys best chance to win a state tonight, thanks to moderate northeast Republican Voters and an open primary system. Martha virginia is also holding an open primary and she could do well in the suburban areas near d. C.

Did i recollects State Of The Union or stump speech and President Biden giving a sharply partisan address to quell concerns about his fitness for office. Good morning, im dana perino and bill is on assignment and look who i found to fill in for him. Thanks for being here. Craig t no surprise. Were very excited and dont know how it got past the bosses. Im shannon bream, this is americas news room. Any career ive been told i was too young. Ive been told im too old. Whether young or old, ive always been known, ive always known what endures.

hello, everybody. Jesse watters along with judge Jeanine Pirro judge Jeanine Pirro, Jessica Tarlov, dana perino, and bill hemmer. It is 5 00 in New York City, and this is the five. The big moment finally here. We are just two hours away from the first Super Tuesday polls closing. Millions of voters in 16 states and one territory casting their ballots in the biggest primary day of the year. That could set the stage for november. Trump looking to land that knockout punch, seize control of the nomination, and take the fight to biden. But nikki haley will not go quietly.
