Today marks Native American Heritage Day, a day when we honor the Native American nations and individuals that are the foundation of our country. There would be no Thanksgiving, and indeed no America, were it not for the strength, resilience, and honor of Native Americans. Our history of mistreatment of Native Americans is one we still struggle to come to terms w/ & continues to hurt Native Americans to this very day, as seen w/disproportionate rates of poverty, health problems & violence, esp the high number of missing & murdered indigenous women.

The toll sexual assault & sexual harassment takes on our military goes beyond the raw data. It's revealed in the stories of survivors attacked by one of their own & failed by their command. That's why I’m chairing a hearing now in the MilPers Subcommittee: armedservices.house.gov/hearings?ID=D7… One survivor said, "I could have been a great Army Nurse if I had the chance ... maybe I shouldn't have reported it.”

Since 2017 he has: Called women pigs, dogs, low IQ, nasty, fat, disgusting, horse face, not my type, slob, wacky, bimbo, that woman. And who could forget his calls to lock her up, send her back, or grab them by the p****?

Trump also said the supplemental investigation, which he called an "update," must be "limited in scope and completed in less than one week." Will the FBI be allowed to talk to Judge, Tom, PJ, Bernie, Squi and Timmy? “Skis” is short for “brewskis,” or beers. The entry was July 1, a Thursday. And Sen. Mitchell asked him about it.
MITCHELL: The entry says, and I quote, go to ‘Timmy’s for skis with Judge, Tom, P.J. Bernie and ... Squi?’
KAVANAUGH: Squi. It’s a nickname.

There is a disdain for women that is emanating from the U.S. Senate that has a pungent, rotten odor. pbs.org/newshour/polit… There is misogyny in the U.S. Senate pure and simple, whether it’s trying to undercut the CAA Reform Act or the way that Dr. Blasey Ford is being treated. And women across the country know it when they see it.
