Women

Thank you. Every one of you.

Especially, thank you to those who are now involved in this confirmation process. You who testified, at great personal cost. You who stood strong and determined in the face of the fury of the nominee. You who sat in the hearing room audience in silent support, watching. You who stood at the door to every elevator where a Senator might pass. You who had to withstand insult and injury from a foul minded, mean mouthed Lindsey Graham. You who confronted a remarkably and credibly sympathetic Jeff Flake with your story and your pain and possibly, maybe, could be, changed the course of history.

Thank you to every woman who watched the events of the last few days and grew more determined (if that's even possible) to change the very core of our national soul.

Thank you.

I am in awe.

Never have the battle lines been drawn clearer

A right wing Judiciary for the next generation is in complete opposition to the way America actually is and will be

We need the women to step up and hear you roar or we all might lose decades of progress in the bat of an eye
