i mean, the numbers speak for themselves. this was definitely not something that i wanted to do, to go viral, but if the message is that hate won t win, i think we re proving that, and we have to say it loudly and clearly and stand up for those who are being attacked because one day it might be us, and i know that everything that i felt the day that lonna tise accused me or being a groomer and sexualizing children, is that much worse for a trans kid who s getting attacked every day, who just wants to go to school and have friends and get through the day. the response has been overwhelming and my hope is that other white women like me who are doing okay are the ones to stand up and put an end to this because it won t, unless we do it. michigan state senator, mallory mcmorrow, thank you very much for coming on. thank you for speaking out. thanks, senator. and six past the hour, we re
hateful. it s horrible. yeah. willie is with us. willie, you have a question. senator, good morning, it s willie geist, we should point out, this is not happening in isolation. we saw this at the confirmation hearings for a historic supreme court justice where anyone who voted for her was put in that groom you were put in with groomers because they thought she had been too light. fanned by prominent united states senators that you had been too light in sentencing for child pornography, and things like that. i m curious about the senator who made this accusation, and it s ugly but, i mean, we have to say it out loud about what she said about you, that you were upset that kindergartners couldn t be sexualized and that you were a groomer effectively, when you looked directly at senator tise yesterday and said what you said, did she look back at you. everyone s very tough online, on twitter and fundraising e-mails. what did she do back? what did she say back? she said nothing back.
