Odd thought guise, but if ole Chucky contacted Stacey "socialist" Abrams to conduct the reply to the SOTU on Jan 8th, that would have been early on in the shutdown. Plus, with it being cancelled a week plus later there seems to be some interesting positioning here.

Another Odd fact since 1966 the rebuttal has been given by only U.S. Reps or Senators, sans the 9 Governors. This is the first time since '66 that someone whom is an EX-official has given the address.

I am really beginning to wonder if the selection is due to a lack of anyone else being "available" to give it. Typically it is a presidential run contender and she couldn't even take governor from GA.

She also has Extreme ties to Socialists of America and Antifa?

Could her selection really be a call to arms of the opposition, sans a BIG move during the SOTU? After all both houses are called out of session and sitting members can be indicted at said time.

Something REAL fishy here, especially since she isn't looking at a POTUS run.
