JFC all that time and we still can only 'allow' 2? Fukthat!
Black women have been the group to have held this country together so far. Why not the rest of us????

2 out of 100. 2% of the senate. Seems like its 4 or 5 short of being truly representative there.

Well that’s a half-full way of looking at things.

How ridiculous. It’s 2025! What is wrong is Americans and their love of white male dominance?
Congratulations ladies!

A very positive interview and a bright light in an otherwise cruel Senate. I’m glad they are friends.

I'm a 50-something white guy and id prefer a Senate of all Black women (and maybe 2 white dudes if they were truly exceptional.)

Tired of being led by mediocre, spineless, milquetoast country clubbers. Women of color are our 21st century social barometers and we need their voices in leadership.
