Katie Britt, a rising star in the Republican Party, delivered an uneven response to President Biden's State of the Union address from her kitchen in Alabama. She warned about illegal immigration and criticized Biden's leadership, using a domestic backdrop to emphasize her message. Despite her disconcerting performance, former President Trump praised her speech. Britt's selection for the response drew attention to women's issues and abortion rights. She has been on Trump's radar and received his endorsement for the Senate race. Democrats have criticized her stance on immigration and foreign affairs.
