This portrait of newly elected members of Congress is striking. Of 31 new Republicans, just one is a woman. (There may be a 2nd if Young Kim wins in California). Nearly all the men are white.

Is it just me, do the incoming GOP class of representatives basically look like a lily-white Klan meeting?

they actually reflect America's diversity
fat can pawns and toadies are on their way back under the rocks, but we've got a looong way to go

Sorry, I am not responsible for your assumptions.
Not simply just white people.
White people who are known or suspected to support voter suppression of POC, support Donald Trump's bigotry and the "very fine" Nazis of Charlottesville, support the dilution of the Voting Rights Act, supported the racist Kenyan birth certificate nonsense, and have made it a life long habit to claim blacks only vote Democratic to "get free stuff".

diversity of population isn't anywhere near as important as diversity of ideas. in fact the reason diversity became 'important' was because of a "wise Latina perspective"- even though Sotomayor rulings come from a pre-packaged partisan box-was to insure diversity of thought.
The problem with our politics isn't caused any lack of race or sex diversity, it's caused by hyper-partisanship
