Katie Britt's infomercial of fear

Her point was that this happened on US soil during Biden’s reign because he’s weak on borders.
None of which is accurate. Check the 2nd video @tcg550 posted. It packs a lot into 6 minutes.

Her point? FWIW, I don’t think the base, generally, is ever interested in a whole story. They believe what they want to believe and hear what they want to hear, whatever confirms their existing beliefs. So, you spin a narrative, sprinkle in those dog whistles and trigger words for the base and that’s enough for them. Immigration is bad, explained as a bunch of trigger words thrown out. If you tee up a bunch of credible points and tie them up to a logical conclusion, that would be missed by much of your audience and entirely superfluous. Just ramble on and make sure your audience is regularly pricking up their collective ears. Or, “Point? We don’t need no stinking point.” Probably helps if you’re not really capable of making one, regardless.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To be fair, nobody insists the President “say their name” when it comes to victims of our lax gun laws, because the State of the Union address is only an hour long.

Hannity called him “Jacked Up Joe” after the speech. Thanks for that, Sean! Slap that on a Dark Brandon mug, stat!

Also this is an appropriation by white supremacist scum of a slogan from the BLM movement.

Is she in one of those demo kitchens for cabinet makers, because other than a kettle, there is literally NOTHING that would be in a lived in kitchen, especially one with kids. Where are the placemats and napkin holder on the table? The stack of mail from the last 3 days? The little ceramic frog with the dish scrubber in its mouth? The jar with the large spoons and other utensils?

A women’s version of Tucker Carlson’s spotless, unused workshop?

She was speaking in the Fundie baby voice. It’s an actual thing that these women are trained to use in certain fundamentalist circles.

Even worse than Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ rebuttal from last year which was pretty brutally awful.

Laken Riley’s family was apparently invited to attend the SOTU as a Republican guest and the family declined because they didn’t want to be used as political pawns. Of course it didn’t stop anybody from using her death as a political sledgehammer anyway. You had Empty G handing out buttons with her picture, and the rebuttal also invoking her name as well. What a bunch of ghouls.

Glad I wasn’t the only person who immediately though those words.

Edit: so a quick google confirms she in fact can speak quite normally. So this wasn’t just weird, it was a CHOICE.

She reminds me of Mrs Waterford in the Handmaid’s Tale (tv adaption).

I’m so impressed that she worked her way up from being born into a family that owned two business.
