I know, it's such a welcome change to hear about her dedication rather than the current dysfunction Rhiannon12866 Oct 2023 #4

As I got sick of hearing about the mess in the House. She was so much more than a Senator from California and I’m glad so many strong Dem women honored her today, too. I did not know she was a member of the Blue Angels and the overhead tribute to her “Missing Woman” formation was in her honor and will be all weekend. Just fantastic, imo

She certainly deserved this honor by her friends and colleagues and we needed to hear that there still are heroes.

I look forward to seeing our young people pick up the baton and fight the good fight and we have them in the wings being mentored so hope is eternal, as they say

Earlier on MSNBC they showed high school kids calling for a return to responsible government. I'll post those when/if they're available.
