Fact Check Team: When did the State of the Union address begin & how has it evolved?

President Donald Trump is set to deliver the first State of the Union address of his second term on Tuesday. The speech comes after a year in office impacted by sweeping tariffs that have rattled global markets, intensified immigration enforcement in American cities, persistent cost-of-living concerns, and rising tensions with Iran that've stoked fears of a broader conflict.

In a preview video released by the White House on Saturday, the president is likely to focus on border security, public safety and restoring "law and order" - issues that've come to define his return to the White House and are expected to shape midterms in Congress.
