. @ewarren , emotional, tells me she tried to make eye contact with Republicans in the chamber while the videos were playing “but they just wanted to look off.” “They don’t want to talk about it,” she said, when asked if she spoke to her GOP colleagues during the break.

Romney and Graham were having an animated discussion during the break. I saw them through the cloakroom door, Graham was waving his hands around and seemed to be lecturing Romney on something. Romney then went to talk to Coons on the floor.
