Warnock's plea for peace (and ceasefire) & Katie's "cold open" & TikTok treatment

Sen. Raphael Warnock had time (before church, I suppose?) for the Sunday talk circuit and at one check-in - on Meet the Press - he was pressed by Kristen Welker about Georgia's support for incumbent President Joe Biden, former Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan's prospects as a potential third party candidate, plus Fani Willis' fate (he passed on commenting). Hear his optimistic spin on what appears to be an uphill slog (for now, anyway). Later in the show I'm revisiting his impassioned floor speech from last week on the floor of the US Senate calling for a negotiated ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. To my mind, it's the most earnest speech by a major American political figure giving equal angst and passion for the Palestinian people. Before that, though, ya had to know 'Saturday Night Live' had the "cold open" awaiting Sen. Katie Britt after her ... dramatic ... response to the State of the Union address. Well they did, but it was journalist Jonathan M. Katz that had some colder water to throw on her use of an immigrant's story that had many in political circles talking.
