AlexPadilla4CA Clarence Thomas? That was the biggest disgrace in the US Senate in my lifetime.

AlexPadilla4CA This is the pot calling the kettle black. You cannot be called a racist for calling out a racist action. That is exactly what Alex is doing here. HuffPost is probably doing it also. So much for intelligent journalism.

AlexPadilla4CA So proud to have AlexPadilla4CA as my Senator! He is awesome!

Of course they are treated differently- everyone is supposed to defer to them simply because of their color - not because of who they are and all of their goodness - just for their skin tone. What an effective way to keep people under their thumb

Good for him

The good Senator needs to grow up. Nominees of all stripes are routinely put through the ringer by the opposition party. He knows that…we all know that.

Side note:Marsha Blackburn is a racist.

Hope he's the tough. Dems. could use it

Call it like it is Senator Padilla.

'“The extent he was suggesting racial bias...I know that to be grossly inaccurate, extraordinarily unfair and also of the very sort of comment that would incite people to anger, acts of retaliation and violence,” said Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah).' Is that a threat of violence?

Completely expected behavior from Republicans

Sen. Padilla, you are correct. Thank you.

Hi little children at “huff post” - stop with your dumb, everyone is a racist commentary.
