Black guy stands up and reads from a pre-written talking points teleprompter in which he accuses Biden of tearing the nation apart.

I don't see why the Ravens made this deal with the Chiefs. The primary reason the Chiefs got beaten like a drum in the Super Bowl this past season was their woeful OL play.
