Many cheers to the brave women

She's come down to talk to the protesting women and greet them.

Senator Hirono has joined the protesters and hugging them!

Just like the blankets the kidnapped kids had for comfort as they slept on concrete!

They know the risk of being arrested and yet they PERSIST!

I'm so proud of these brave women! I alternate between goosebumps and tears.

They are doing some editorializing too. Highly critical of the administration!

There has been a shooting at the Capital Gazette in Annapolis. sigh

Christ...another fucking shooting.

Capitol police have threatened to arrest a crowd of women who had gathered on Capitol Hill to protest President Trump's immigration policy.

The incident began when the protesters, who earlier attended a march and rally organized by the Women's March, flooded a Senate office building while chanting, "We care" -- a reference to first lady Melania Trump's "I really don't care. Do U?" jacket that she wore before and after visiting the young children being held near the southern border last week.

Some of the women were also wearing the the foil-style thermal blankets that detained immigrants were seen wearing in government footage earlier this month.

As the women were being escorted away by police, Sen. Mazie Hirono, a Hawaii Democrat, approached them and appeared to introduce herself.

About 100 people arrested in immigration protest at Capitol Hill
From CNN's Daniella Diaz and Kate Sullivan

More than one thousand female activists marched through Washington, D.C., Thursday and flooded a Capitol Hill Senate building to protest the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" policy.

US Capitol Police arrested about 100 people at the protest in the Senate building so far.

The activists sat on the floor of the Senate building with Mylar blankets to demand the end demand Congress end the policies that criminalize undocumented immigrants and separates their children from them.

This administration is committing crimes against humanity. This travesty CAN'T be forgotten.

People are hitting the streets and they are walking the talk!

if they arrested the Senator and put her baby in a cage.

the issues that hurt people the most. It is not a generalization, it is a fact. The same can be said for the high number of females in the Dem party as opposed to the GOP.

Just as effective but perhaps less confrontational and threatening to the police.
Tammy Duckworth is a badass, and so are the other women.
Hang in there and make your presence known!
