those who served alongside him. and the thousands, we know who will be called upon to serena served after him. deserve to know they have a country, and a community back home, doing our part in the fight for freedom. america s great because we are free. but today, our freedom is under attack. and america we love, is in danger. president biden and the democrats have failed you. and it s time for a change. a new generation of republican leaders are stepping up. not to be caretaker the status quo, but to be changemakers for the american people. we know not what the future holds, but we know who holds the future in his hands. and with god as our witness, from people chokehold africa is still the place where freedom rains, and liberty will never die. god bless, two and goblets america. the republican response tonight from arkansas governor sarah huckabee sanders, former press secretary to donald trump, with an extended anecdote at the end there, about how anna trip with president
talked about this issue, not as a sort of dance card punch, as a thing to get through on a list of policy, a list of long policies, he spent a long time, and certainly the most emotional time of the, speech and extended discussion, about the sort of grand moral empathy required, as americans, to try to fix this problem. it s surprising, on that turn in the, speech a think is very effective, i wonder what you thought in the room tonight. on, i cannot thank president biden, and vice president harris enough, for speaking to, the hearts of the american people today. i ve taken the plea of the mother of tyre nichols, and so many other families, who have lost a loved one, on or had a loved one traumatized, because of their interaction with law enforcement. and he was very clear, but this
