I watched the Republican reply to the State of the Union speech. As much as I tried to connect with the “freedom” message I had a very hard time. I do not have the freedom to obtain gender-affirming care, to plan my family, to be as “woke” as I choose, to permit my child to read any book she needs, to be as liberal as I want without being demonized, or to study slavery, reconstruction and Jim Crow.
The only freedom I heard from Sarah Huckabee Sanders was freedom from regulations and high taxes, for what that is worth. I definitely don’t have freedom from government interference in my life.
