Missouri Republican Sen. Eric Schmitt reads some of NPR CEO Katherine Maher’s most absurd tweets to celebrate the Senate voting to end taxpayer funding for public broadcasting:

“I’m so done with late-stage capitalism.” “America is addicted to white supremacy.” “I do wish Hillary wouldn’t use the language of boy and girl – it’s erasing language for non-binary people.” “Lots of jokes about leaving the U.S., and I get it. But as someone with cis-white mobility privilege… I’m thinking, I’m staying and investing in ridding ourselves of the specter of tyranny.” “Never underestimate the ability of white people to center ourselves.” “White silence is complicity.” “And I am white, so my hair doesn’t automatically carry with it the freight of my race, worth, and everyone else’s encoded assumptions and biases.” “I’m grateful those who have pointed out my phrasing could be understood as trans-erasure.” “Horses inspire awe and foster a sense of identity. More kids should have access to these incredible animals. But most horse spaces are white spaces.” “I know that hysteric, white woman voice. I was taught to do it. I’ve done it. That’s whiteness.” “What is the deranged racist sociopath ranting about today? I truly don’t understand.” (Again, this is Catherine Maher. This is not me.) “Had a dream where Kamala and I were on a road trip in an unspecified location, sampling and comparing nuts and baklava from roadside stands. Woke up very hungry.”
