Joe Biden

On Sunday morning the panel on CNN' "Inside Politics" pounced on Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) for her smear of President Joe Biden by linking him to a victim of sex trafficking which occurred 20 years before he became president.

With Britt's spokesperson finally coming clean, CNN host Manu Raju shared a clip of Britt's overwrought storytelling before telling his panel, "... the incident did not happen during the Biden administration or even in the United States, but actually in Mexico."

"So this was supposed to be a shining moment for Britt, someone who is being elevated in the Republican ranks given this huge opportunity," he continued. "She's faced enormous criticism for her delivery, but now this passage was not true the way she presented it. What's the fallout?"

"I mean, the story itself that she told is not inaccurate," correspondent Melanie Zanona contributed. "What's dishonest is the way she tried to link into the Biden administration, the way she tried to link it to something that was happening in the United States."

"And it was just such an unforced error for her in addition to picking the kitchen table as the setting, in addition to the delivery which was widely criticized and mocked, "she continued. "And this is just the risk of doing the rebuttal. These are notoriously tricky. You're going from watching the president in this room with hundreds of people — there's a lot of energy to watching someone deliver a straight to camera alone in a room and we've seen how this has tripped up past politicians including rising stars."

"It looked like it's happened to her as well," she added. "I mean, I would say I don't think this means her end is here because in the future of the Republican party, she still has a very long career ahead of her, but it's embarrassing."

As expected, Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) got the Saturday Night Live treatment for her response to President Joe Biden's State of the Union address with actress Scarlett Johansson nailing the Alabama Republican's over-the-top storytelling and wild mood swings.

Introducing herself with, "My name is Katie Britt and I have the honor of serving the great people of Alabama. But tonight I’ll be auditioning for the part of ‘Scary mom.’ I’ll be performing an original monologue called ‘This country is hell,'” Johansson’s Britt added, "You see, I’m not just a senator, I’m a wife, a mother and the craziest b---h in the Target parking lot — worried about the future of our children. And this is why I have invited you into this strange and empty kitchen because Republicans want me to appeal to women voters. And women love kitchens.”
