Democrats Doug Jones and Tina Smith Sworn In as Senators


Mike Pence on Wednesday swore in a pair of Democrats as the newest senators on Capitol Hill. Tina Smith from Minnesota and Doug Jones from Alabama, who won the seat vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Two down, (at least) four more to go.

Says my friend Jim:
This pic of the openly gay son of Alabama’s new senator, staring defiantly into the eyes of the outrageously homophobic VP who’s swearing in his dad, is everything!

The Minnesota lieutenant governor replaced unfairly embattled Senator Al Franken. Here's hoping she is as good or better than the former comedian -- and can hold the seat come election time.
