#SOTUResponse aww shucks, who would have guessed the daughter of a hardware store OWNER and dance studio OWNER could get elected to the Senate in Alabama!? That’s just a classic description of the petit bourgeoisie that controls the Republican Party.

Watching #SOTUResponse before I turned it off, I was struck by a strong "sorority" vibe, and indeed:

I know nothing about Chi Omega, but UA sororities historically seem to exude a Stepford-Wife-In-Training feeling, so the puzzle all fits together perfectly here.

Inside Katie Britt’s time in student government at the University of Alabama

Britt joins a long line of Alabama politicians who share an official and unofficial campus leadership background.

These people watch Handmaid's Tale and emulate them because they are confused as to who the protagonists of the dystopian post-apocolyptic are. #SOTUResponse

And of course the plot thickens with #SOTUResponse and Katie Britt: https://x.com/yashar/status/1766329114292842930?s=46&t=AfgiqGkjKWwbpJyMEI_SJA. Apparently, the story about cartels and a raped girl occurred in Mexico between 2004-06, and the woman it happened to is an activist who has been describing it for years. Genuinely horrible stuff. But Katie Britt is a liar, it didn’t happen in the U.S., and it didn’t happen because of Joe Biden or his policies. She heard it from this woman in 2023.

Well it looks like Jonathan M. Katz has caught @SenKatieBritt in a pretty significant lie.

@Will always suspicious of people are into that stuff because my own uni student gov't was f&+King nuts. Scott Walker was a big student govt guy at his university too, he was so into it, he did not graduate.
