Yeah, that won't highlight the Republican's continuing War on Women, right?

Ok, that's 7 days for the thought to build up in Turnips head that SOMEONE ELSE will be getting all the attention in the response to Biden... and that means he will insist on doing it himself or announce a competing response with this woman, hoping that he will at least be able to beat her in ratings...

At first glance I thought that was Alina Habba. Is there a factory?

Did POTU already get the formal invite to Congress?

You have it, you've rejected it because the Mango Mussolini decided getting elected was more important than national security.

A Google search found articles that said that Johnson extended the invitation on Jan 6. So, yeah.

The parents of slain UGA jogger Laken Riley have declined an invitation to the State of the Union address Thursday in order to grieve their daughter, according to far-right Congressman Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA).

Collins, who represents Georgia’s 10th Congressional District of Athens, where the 22-year-old nursing student is alleged to have been murdered, said in an announcement to X on Wednesday that his office had sent an invite, “but understandably, they have chosen to stay home as they grieve the loss of their daughter.”

It is unclear whether Collins’ reputation for the wilder of side of politics was also at play in the decision to turn down the invite—he is currently facing criticism for his response to an antisemitic post on X that called a Washington Post reporter out for being Jewish.
He also very publicly supports Texas’ use of razor wire on the border and caused outrage last month after he suggested using “Pinochet Air” tactics against an undocumented migrant (referring to the brutal tactic known as “death flights” used famously by Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, which saw dissidents and opposition figures thrown from a helicopter into the ocean or into the high peaks of the Andes). His post violated X’s rules, the platform said, but said it would remain public due to public interest.
:snippity:

On Thursday, Collins said he would honor Riley by keeping his guest seat vacant at the presidential address. The empty seat, he added, will also honor “all American victims of illegal alien crime.”

Trump announces plans to fact-check the address via Truth Social. As if he would recognize a fact even if it bit him on his flabby orange ass.

Alternative fact checking is easy. You just make up what you want.

I told you. He cant bear to have the spotlight on anyone else. So even if someone else is giving the Official Republican response, he has to pipe in with something to suck column inches his way.

I wonder what unpaid intern he will have typing the "Fact checks." He will be too busy screaming during the SOTU to do it, or hosting a dinner to pretend he does not care. While searching the whole room constantly to see if people are checking their phones to see what Biden is saying...

Sec of Education.

why would Santos still have floor privileges since he's been kicked out? He's just a random civilian now.
