Day 92.
We were warned. We were given an explanation.
Nevertheless.
Here’s the thing. They’re all hoping we’ll get tired. They’re getting tired. They’re getting irritated. That’s why McConnell lashed out. But when people get tired and irritated, they show themselves. They show themselves by silencing a woman, and then throwing up their hands and letting four men pick up where she left off, without interruption.
But they’re not making us tired. They’re giving us fuel. The thing is, they don’t know what we’re capable of. And in a way, maybe we don’t either.
Let’s show them.
We’re in this for the long haul.
So what’s next? We remind the Senators who supported these nominees that they own this. If they’re not concerned now? We’ll see them at the polls.
Here is what Senator Warren said tonight after Sessions was confirmed.
If Jeff Sessions turns a blind eye while Donald Trump violates the Constitution or breaks the law, he’ll hear from all of us. If Jeff Sessions makes even the tiniest attempt to bring his racism, sexism, and bigotry into the Justice Department, he’ll hear from all of us. And you better believe every Senator who voted to put Jeff Sessions’s radical hatred into the Justice Department will hear from all of us, too.
Consider this MY warning: We won’t be silent. We will speak out. And we WILL persist.
