I heard a bit of the Republican response to the Biden state of the union address by Katie Britt.

I found it impossible to believe that someone that young was in the US
Senate, a place where very very old white dudes go to die. I had to look
her up to make sure she's not in the Alabama state legislature.

She looks like a former high school cheerleader, and she looks a good
decade younger than she actually is. I'm looking for a cheerleading
picture with her but haven't found it.

She won the election in 2022, succeeding Richard Shelby. She'd been on
his political and legislative staff at various times and was rising
through the ranks of various civic groups and government positions in
Alabama. US Senator was the first election she ran in.

She ran against Mo Brooks, six-term House member from Alabama. Brooks
ran for Senate in lieu of running for another term.

Both are Trump supporters. Brooks is so conservative, he's a founding
member of the House Freedom Caucus. Britt is quite a religious
conservative.

What's the difference? Britt endorsed Trump's lies about having been
re-elected in 2020. Brooks would not endorse all of Trump's lies, but he
did sign an amicus brief in favor of Trump in one of the lawsuits
contesting the election, Texas v. Pennsylvania. The case went no where
for Texas's lack of standing. Brooks even endorsed some of the unfounded
claims of fraud. But by March 2022, Brooks said the law doesn't permit
him to work to remove Biden in order to install Trump.

Trump withdrew his endorsement and Brooks could not get elected Senator.

The Trump loyalty test has no end limit, it seems.

Britt has got to be the most attractive Senator I've ever seen.

Wikipedia says she was indeed a cheerleader in high school.

Such gloom and doom. She should've started off with "It was a dark and
stormy night..."

Somewhere, a High School drama coach is VERY proud.

She chewed all the scenery in that kitchen, lol.

I just don't know why she
didn't appear in that kitchen as barefoot and pregnant.
