I wonder if RBG is attending and if she is will she wear white? I also wonder if the guys can wear white to show support for women or is that considered inappropriate?

RBG will not be attending. If she does she will probably wear the traditional Justices' outfit.

My stomach cannot take watching or listening at the orange buffoon, it turns and starts hurting, I even close my eyes if I am watching Rachel Maddow, or anyone else and they show the orange buffoon.

Why do they have to show him when they are talking about him? We all know how disgusting he looks like. What is the need to show him?

I made (two) white pussyhats to commemorate it, but so far nobody (marches and online) has expressed interest.

Glaring at him from behind. I wouldn't be surprised if she gets in a couple of discreet snorts and snickers.

Almost everyone I know thinks he is afraid of her
The only smart ass comment made about Pelosi was 'Nancy Peloser' and that was from Alec Baldwin playing trump
It is interesting how he has nicks for almost everyone but her

Grassley - republican women are lazy and cannot handle the job.

They actually LOST a bunch in the midterms and the few are very unhappy because their party was supporting men instead.

Saw Schiff on CNN after the speech and he had a ribbon on his lapel. If you look closely at the photos of the Dems in their seats, you can see the ribbons most, if not all, are wearing.
