Sarah rebuttal a woke-up call

Republican Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders delivered a fiery rebuke of “the radical left’s America” during the GOP rebuttal to President Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday night.

Sanders, 40, who served as White House press secretary under former President Donald Trump, attacked what she called the Biden administration’s “woke fantasies” and “false idols” in her remarks.

“In the radical left’s America, Washington taxes you and lights your hard-earned money on fire, but you get crushed with high gas prices, empty grocery shelves, and our children are taught to hate one another on account of their race, but not to love one another or our great country,” she said.

“The Biden administration seems more interested in woke fantasies than the hard reality Americans face every day.”

“Every day, we are told that we must partake in their rituals, salute their flags and worship their false idols, all while big government colludes with Big Tech to strip away the most American thing there is: your freedom of speech,” she added, an apparent reference to the bombshell Twitter Files reports late last year that detailed the FBI’s successful bid to influence Twitter to censor The Post’s explosive 2020 report on the Hunter Biden laptop.

She went on to offer a GOP vision of the country.

“Republicans believe in an America where strong families thrive is safe communities; where jobs are abundant and paychecks are rising; where the freedom our veterans shed their blood to defend is the birthright of every man, woman and child,” she said.
