In the interest of disclosure, let me start by admitting that I am currently favoring Senator Warren next year. But that is not what inspired me to write this diary. The most direct cause of today’s post is our Freshman Class in the House of Representatives. Notably, Representatives Hill, Porter, Tlaib, and Ocasio-Cortez.
Rep. Hill (D-CA) came across my surfing twice today- in her committee questioning of Big Pharma and her speech about Equality on the House floor. The other 3 Congresswomen named above have also been exceptional in committee hearings. Rep. Porter’s questions to Jamie Diamond were withering! AOC demonstrated how corruption is effectively legal in a brutal hearing on campaign finance (At least I think it was about campaign finance).
Weren’t Senators Harris and Hirono brilliant in questioning Judge Beerface?
Okay- short post. They make the case far better than I could.
