Did Katie Britt mislead Americans with a story about trafficking in her State of the Union response?
Sen. Katie Britt detailed a harrowing account of child sexual assault as part of the GOP State of the Union response. But Britt's use of the anecdote immediately sparked questions and backlash.
this:
“Trump officially takes over the Republican National Committee”

jackhutton 🇺🇸[NYTimes]: Questions Arise About Britt’s State of the Union Response By Ken Bensinger
The Alabama senator used a story about sex trafficking to criticize the Biden administration’s border policies. But it was misleading.

Joanne FreemanSomehow, this was a state of the Union address AND a campaign speech.
He was aggressive.
He presented a vision.
He was passionate.
He went for over an hour.
He dealt with hecklers.
He's ready to fight.
SHUT UP about the doddering old guy rhetoric.
PLEASE.
For crying out loud.
Lauren WeinsteinSo looking through the GOP reaction to Biden's speech, there is endless whining claiming that it was "too political and partisan" and "disgraceful" to repeatedly attack Trump that way, etc. They're (falsely) claiming that there was no outreach to Republicans. Blah blah blah.
What really upsets them is that Biden didn't play "nice" in the way that the GOP expects from Democrats, while the GOP uses every dirty trick in the book.
Tiniest violin plays ...
Rod HiltonI just love that the GOP Response to the SOTU just had to clear the bar of "act like a normal person" and they couldn't find a single person in the party who could do it.
Jeff JarvisYou don't speak for me or for America, New York Times. Lord, the hubris of the gray lady. You act as if the dark force over us is ennui. No, damnit, it is fascism. Cover that.

Via david.heath.writer on Threads:
Journalist Jonathan Katz fact checked Katie Britt’s horrific rape story from her over-the-top rebuttal.
Despite all the drama, it turns out to be a story that happened 20 years ago - and not in the U.S. but in Mexico. It’s a story that was recounted in Congressional testimony in 2015.
Katie #Britt lied when she blamed this on Joe #Biden’s border policies and when she said it happened in the U.S. #SOTU
so, president biden's state of the union speech is being called a '...campaign speech...' and/or '...performative politics...' ? huh...? FFS...! where's all the outrage over a q-nutjob wearing a campaign hat and disrespectfully interrupting the state of the union speech...? huh...?
