Alabama Sen. Katie Britt on Sunday acknowledged that the graphic anecdote she employed to criticize President Joe Biden’s border policies didn’t occur during his presidency.
Lmao. She admits never mentioning the current age of the person who was trafficked at age 12.
So for anyone out there who needs this broken down. She brought up this example in her response to Biden’s SOTU. But did not mention when it had happened, leaving viewers to figure that out on their own. The only time relevant context was that the fact that her speech was given in response to Biden.
She absolutely lied by omission but she’s hoping people don’t notice that. That they just go, “oh yeah it’s on all those silly Democrats for assuming when she didn’t say.” And that they give no more thought to it because she yet again goes directly into that breathy fake concern voice about trafficking. At least this time she didn’t graphically describe rape on national TV.
Hardly the first time we’ve heard a politician lie on national television. I’m old enough to remember “We can’t let the smoking gun become a mushroom cloud”, “I did not have sex with that woman”, and (my personal favorite) “A few months ago I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions tell me that’s true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.”
Its just so fucking funny to see people line up like a bunch of dime store marks to taste the latest batch of snake oil panacea.
Americans are the most propagandized people on the fucking Earth.
Oh I was a bit young to remember Reagan, but the other two… Fuck me I remember seeing “Mission Accomplished” on the one TV we had. Right after conducting a combat mission. And we didn’t go home the next day either.
