Alabama Sen. Katie Britt slams Biden, claiming his economic plan is working and is on the verge of tears as she criticizes his border policies in highly emotional Republican response

Senator Katie Britt was sometimes on the verge of tears as she delved into the policies that President Joe Biden emphatically defended during his crucial State of the Union address.

The Alabama Republican was passionate and visibly furious, but also optimistic, as she delivered her party’s official rebuttal to Biden from her kitchen.

The 42-year-old, who is married to former NFL linebacker Wesley Britt, denounced the president’s policies on immigration and the economy and took issue with his age and eligibility for office.

“The American Dream has turned into a nightmare,” she said.

Britt covered heartbreaking stories of the sexual assault of a girl who was trafficked and repeatedly raped at the southern border, and the recent tragedy of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, 22, who was murdered by an illegal immigrant arriving in 2022 with undocumented status was released into the country.

“Yes, as a mother I can’t stop thinking about this,” the emotional mother of two said in her rebuttal. “I mean, this could have been my daughter. This could have been yours.”

Britt stormed into Biden’s defense of her border and economic policies, telling heartbreaking stories of illegal immigration and saying he is out of touch. “The American people shuffle by as President Biden proudly proclaims that Bidenomics works. Thank God, bless his heart. We know better’

“And tonight, President Biden finally said her name,” she added. ‘But he refused to take responsibility for his own actions. Mr. President – ​​enough is enough. Innocent Americans are dying and you have only yourself to blame.”

She said the American dream has now “turned into a nightmare.”

Britt sat at her family’s kitchen table in Birmingham, Alabama, on Thursday evening for the rebuttal of Biden’s speech, where she discussed kitchen table issues with tuned-in Americans.

In particular, she discussed the gap Biden has with his economic policies and how it actually affects the average American.

“The American people shuffle by as President Biden proudly proclaims Bidenomics works,” she said, then added the Southern insult: “Thank goodness, bless his heart.” We know better.’

The rising Republican star who was elected to her seat at the age of 40 brought up Biden’s age, which she nearly halves as she insisted he cannot identify with today’s average American and is therefore out of touch with how he must lead the nation forward.

Britt said the 81-year-old doesn’t understand the economic plight of American families as he pushes his Bidenomics agenda.

“What we saw was the performance of a permanent politician who has actually been in office longer than I have been alive,” she said of the president’s speech. “One thing was very clear, though: President Biden is out of touch.”

“Let’s face it, it’s been a minute since Joe Biden pumped gas, carpooled or even pushed a grocery cart,” Britt later added in her less-than-20-minute remarks. “Meanwhile, the rest of us see our dollar and know it only goes so far. We see it every day.’

Britt’s condition in particular has come under scrutiny recently after the Alabama Supreme Court ruled that fertilized eggs for in vitro fertilization (IVF) are classified as a human life.

This decision has led to massive confusion about how Alabama clinics should handle these eggs — especially in light of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade in June 2022. Alabama was a trigger law state, meaning that once the decision was overturned, abortion was also overturned. essentially completely illegal in the southern red state.

Biden raised this conundrum in his remarks earlier Thursday evening, calling out the Supreme Court justices — six of whom attended his speech — for the decision that ended the nationwide right for women to have an abortion.

“This is the United States of America and I believe it is high time we start acting like it,” Britt said in her rebuttal.

“President Biden’s border policies are a disgrace. This crisis is despicable. And the truth is, it is almost entirely preventable,” she added. “From fentanyl poisonings to gruesome murders, there are empty chairs at kitchen tables like this one tonight because of President Biden’s senseless border policies.”

“Right now, our commander-in-chief is not in command,” she said in concluding her remarks. “The free world deserves better than a hesitant and diminished leader.”

“America deserves leaders who recognize that secure borders, stable prices, safe streets and strong defenses are in fact the cornerstones of a great country.”
