Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt pulled no punches as she delivered her party's rebuttal to President Biden's State of the Union address Thursday night, ripping him for his "despicable" job handling the border crisis, as well as his promotion of "Bidenomics" amid the rising consumer costs plaguing American families.
A rising star within the GOP, the 42-year-old Britt's selection to deliver the rebuttal last week was met with widespread praise — even from some Democrats — as she continues to build a national profile despite never holding elected office prior to her election in the 2022 midterms.

Before she became known as a political candidate, she was known as the wife of former NFL player Wesley Britt.
Wesley first came to the NFL in 2005 after being drafted in the fifth round by the San Diego Chargers and going on to play for the New England Patriots.
“[L]ess freedoms”? Hurts my ears.
NFN, but how many fingers does she have on her left hand? Looks like about seven.
Mama on a mission? That’s good. Should be used more.
Sarah Palin had a similar meme , “Mama Bears”
Britt should do well and soon will be a US Senator.
When a Southern woman says, “Bless Your Heart”, you should probably start running.
In the South, “Bless your heart”, means “you’re stupid”.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
100% !!
She did a nice job with her rebuttal.
So much better than Sarah Huckabee Sanders did.
In the South it means I’d like to cut your heart out.
She did well, very well.
“So much better than Sarah Huckabee Sanders did.”
I didn’t hear Britt’s, but have to say that Sarah’s was very lackluster and forgettable.
I’m down here in TN, and I’ve always thought “bless your heart” means “F you, you insignificant pissant”.
Yep!
Must’ve had a case of Jazz Hands that day lol.
Looks like 5 to me. Maybe get your glasses checked?
Translation...
Her rebuttal did not change the mind of even one voter.
More creeped out how her fingers bend backwards
