Here come the WOMEN in black: Democrats show how they will protest Trump tonight – with badges commemorating African-American rape victim Recy Taylor honored by Oprah at the Golden Globes
Democratic women - and some men too - posed for a photo showing off their all-black attire that they'll be wearing to tonight's State of the Union address
The Democrats are sporting black after the women of Hollywood did the same, paying respects to victims of sexual assault and harassment at this year's Golden Globes awards
The rape survivor turned activist Recy Taylor, who Oprah Winfrey paid homage to in her Golden Globes speech, is being honored by the Democrats too, as many of them are sporting pink 'RECY' pins Hours before the State of the Union address, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi gathered together her fellow Democratic women – and some men too – for a photo-op, as they showed off their black outfits for tonight.

The Democrats followed the lead of Oprah Winfrey too, who had brought up the rape and subsequent activism of the late Recy Taylor.
For the State of the Union, the lawmakers sported pink 'RECY' pins too.
Pelosi, according to Politico, thought the wardrobe revolt was enough of a message, as she also instructed her members not to walk out of the speech or make a commotion.

I think I like option B best. I'll go with that one. Yea...B it is.
They could do everybody a favor and wear black ninja head coverings.
Because Democrat women showed up, things got ugly fast.
She always reminds me of the Sea Hag in the Popeye cartoons.
Absolutely childish. Typical Democrat behavior.
Rather than white to celebrate their long gone virginity, this year the congressional sluts will wear the black of mourning to illustrate the fact they are losers.
They can’t seem to get over the fact that not only did hillary clinton lose the presidential race, they lost virtually everything. They mourn their loss, publicly declaring they are losers.
Is that Mary Feldman or his twin sister sitting two chairs down to Nan’s left???
Why is there a picture of Elton John inserted there?
