Rep. Rebecca Michelle “Mikie” Sherrill (D-NJ) is a former Navy helicopter pilot, Russian policy officer and a former federal prosecutor. But to MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, her first name sounds “like a kid’s name”:
Rep. Mikie Sherrill spoke about serving in the military, taking oaths of office as a federal prosecutor and US Rep, about family members now in the military and the ‘grave’ responsibility she felt today to protect the country.

Earlier in the segment, Rep. Sherrill, who defeated a Republican in 2018, came out for impeachment of the president:

And how much longer is MSNBC going to tolerate his crap? Remember when he harassed then CNBC reporter Erin Burnett on air?
This was from 2007, so many haven't seen it, or have forgotten it, but it's amazing how MSNBC allowed Chris Matthews so blithely to just move on & thrive after this creepy on-air exchange with Erin Burnett https://t.co/8fwDcS3QT8
