Senator Sheldon Whitehouse is simply excellent n/t

1. He is the epitome of a US senator. What we used to call gravitas

[MontanaMama]

2. He sure is.

I find myself cheering him on out loud.

3. I always am blown away by his depth and ability to articulate it in a way I understand.

5. Completely. I was totally wowed

by the discussion on amicus curiae or "friend of the court" filings. These are third-parties that can submit briefs in a case if the court designates them as amicus.

What Senator Whitehouse did was expose how this too is abused with all sorts of hidden interests. What he wants is full disclosure.

He took a complicated issue and made it simple for all of us to understand something so basic.

4. I love how she stone face, played dumb to his questions

I didn't know all this donor money was involved from the organization that I belong to, that owns me, that put me her today etc etc

She is a stepford Judge

6. I'm proud

to say he's my Senator. He does his homework.

He was also interviewed in the Active Measures documentary. He does FOLLOW THE MONEY.

7. I appreciate his passion for the judiciary.

I always look forward to hearing him speak.

8. Cruz seemed to get defensive about dark money

And the federalist society. I think whitehouse hit a nerve.
