the state of the union speech by the president is always done in February. Why hasn't it been scheduled?
Oh, we know the answer, Biden is not mentally capable of doing it and the dems know it.
Why no uproar from the media?
Come on libs and dems, lets hear your attempts to justify putting this old senile pervert in the white house. Is it because you like $5 gasoline? is it because you want union workers our of work? is it because you want an influx of illegals with diseases and drugs?
Inauguration speeches are usually done in lieu of SOTU speeches. And SOTU speeches are often given in January, some in February, and one was not given in 2017 though Trump did have a speech before a joint session.
January 12, 2016 Obama, Barack H.
January 30, 2018 Trump, Donald J.
February 5, 2019 Trump, Donald J.
February 4, 2020 Trump, Donald J.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

There is no annual requirement for the State of the Union speech.
Constitution: the president “shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient.”
Concart (02-25-2021), Guno צְבִי (02-25-2021)
Well, redfuck looks pretty damn stupid on this one. Again. Still.

A President doesn't give a state of the union speech in his first year.
Some have recently, but that broke long standing protocols.
He should do it on close circuit anyway.
The in-person ones get more hostile every year.
That much seething hatred in one room is too much, but at least on camera, it would be Joey with Nancy and Kamala sitting behind him.
It's rare to not have at least one vomit inducing flaming asshole in the three person shot.

true, but be honest, do you really think Biden is capable or reading the teleprompter for 45 minutes? Do you think he is capable of standing for 45 minutes? thats really the point here. How many unscripted press conferences has he had since January 20? Trump had one almost every day. Try to be honest when you reply.
^ This is what happens when you get all your "news" and ideas from rightwing prpoganda sources.
Presidents do not give a SOTU address until after they have been in office for a year.
Trump gave his first SOTU in January 2018
Obama gave his first SOTU in January 2010
Dumbya Bush gave his first SOTU in January 2002
^^ One year after they were inaugurated.
