In a remarkable speech on the anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, President Joe Biden laid the blame for the insurrection clearly and emphatically at the feet of Donald Trump.

He never mentioned Trump by name, but it could not have been more clear whom Biden was talking about — or what he was saying. His rhetoric was heated, fiery even. Trump and his supporters put “a dagger at the throat of American democracy.”

Along with descriptions like, “Wow,” some might add, “Finally.”

Kaitlan Collins said on CNN, “I do think this is a speech he could have given a year ago" when Biden was inaugurated. Instead he chose to focus then on healing and hope.

Indeed, this was a speech unlike any Biden has given, and it seemed to mark a change in his approach to Trump and his continuing lies.
