Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina made an eloquent, uplifting speech on behalf of Republicans, in response to Joe Biden’s quasi–State of the union address.
He spoke of racial grievances, real ones, including a recent instance when the Washington Post’s bigfoot fact-checker Glenn Kessler attempted to debunk Scott’s impoverished background in the Jim Crow South as somehow “privileged,” with revolting claims that Scott “had it easy,” which was beyond horsehockey. Scott left egg all over Kessler’s face.
