Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal! What a great job she is doing! [View all]

I’ve been watching her all day and she has been impressive at every turn. Great arguments for progressive Democrats sticking to their position. Her interviewers keep trying to make her feel guilty for “risking everything”, and she doesn’t take that bait.

Gives me hope that, for once, Progressives won’t be (as usual) the ones that always have to give in.
