“What did you just say?” – Senator John Kennedy
In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on July 29, 2025, Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) unleashed a fiery rebuke against Stacey Abrams,
accusing her of making “blatant racial remarks” during a discussion on voting rights.
The confrontation, which left Congress in stunned silence,
took an unexpected turn when a hot mic captured a private comment from Abrams moments later,
flipping the narrative and sparking a nationwide uproar that reverberated far beyond the Capitol.
