Very well said.

Shame the chamber was empty.

Tammy rocks!

Tammy is a true hero. Can't really name any from the Republican side of the aisle.

Yeah, he was a captured soldier....look what he did in Federal Government. Google McCain and the Keating 5. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwimmLu67-fYAhVQAqwKHSZIDtwQFggzMAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.phoenixnewtimes.com%2Fnews%2Fmccain-the-most-reprehensible-of-the-keating-five-6431838&usg=AOvVaw1GpDPxXMZ6ic7YHRctIO2g

If anything, he redefined "pay and play" at the Federal Level.

Sadly, I doubt he will be a player in this, so who's left...Lindsay Graham? Joe Lieberman? There seems to be few Republicans in the Senate who will cross this Clown in Office. It's like they are "all in" on supporting the treason that is occurring in real time.

I remember back in the 70's when we had Republicans who would buck the Party Line. I see no such coalition of progressive/moderate voices who will hold this President in Contempt. Why? Cuz' they don't elect those types anymore.

I hope trump at least hears about it.

And he had better shut up, and not take her on. If he does, he will lose big.

who lost both legs AND an arm in the service of his country. He lost his re-election to a vile draft-dodger named Saxby Chambliss, who campaigned on the theme that Senator Cleland was not sufficiently pro-military.

Dems that won't put up with the BS and tell it like it is.

We need more speeches like that. If he attacks, hit him back harder with facts, which are on our side.

Nothing emboldens our side like righteous anger.

Bravo Zulu Rep Duckworth.

Bravo Zulu Senator Duckworth.

He's done shit like that over and over.
I hope he tries, because coming down on Duckworth could really backfire big time.

"I didn't lose my legs in a bar fight."

Go get him, Major Duckworth.

Jaw dropping and I applaud.

Between Tammy D and Max Cleland, the GOP should a long look at them, and just STFU about all things military.

And valuable senator.

You go, Woman, you go. Your speech brought tears to my eyes. You nailed it. Resist.

Wow!

Legs are for lightweights....

his ass, Tammy!

Our military requested more resources for Niger mission(s) but the Trump administration refused them.

This IS the way you answer them

With the hard truth

Just like a Vampire melts in the sunlight, Drump will dissolve with the truth

fewer pages for him to read.
Plus they don't want him going beserk

On TeeVee....I hope.

Way to tell that yellow draft dodging POS Commander Bone Spurs off!!!

This is the kind of democratic warrior this country needs to lead us out of the Trump/Putin/GOP wilderness!!

I will use that going forward.

Delighted to have Duckworth and Durbin as my senators.

I think Duckworth's use of the term "draft dodger" to describe Trump is unfortunate.
Trump was not a draft dodger. He did not risk his family and future to stand up for what he believed, the way draft dodgers who fled the US did. Those people risked their family relationships and left a country they loved because they did not want to be involved in an illegal and irresponsible war. They risked the possibility of never being able to go home again.
Trump was a draft evader who used his family's wealth to buy his way out of war he actually supported and his family helped finance. He risked nothing.

I admit, I was one of those people who thought most of the talk between Trump and Kim Jong Un was bluster until yesterday. I was sure Trump was doing this all for his base to have some red meat to chew on while they adore him. Now, my son in law has returned from his tour of Korea. I won't say more for fear somehow what I say could come back on him. I just hope I am being paranoid and nothing could ever come his way.

So my SIL was to be based at a relatively safe permanent duty station. He was even attending a school about the place he was going to. When the school ended he came home and received orders here to standby for further orders back to Korea. He says that it better be war because he doesn't want to go back (yes he is a gung-ho guy). My daughter is about to have a breakdown. If he goes back to Korea there is a MUCH higher chance of war. I'm pretty concerned about all this. I just thought Trump as stupid and a braggart. Getting thousands or millions of people killed because he is stupid and a braggart puts him in the Hitler leader of nations category. I just couldn't imagine Trump emerging from some bunker as a leader in a post apocalyptic world.

He must be busting, trying to pin a negative handle on her.

Go ahead, Bone Spur... give her your best shot... and if Kelly backs him up, then he deserves a court martial.
