Washington Post: Senator Tina Smith of Minnesota seeks out Senator Mike Lee to reproach him for his reckless comments. 

“Smith walked briskly across the chamber and out into the hall and asked where Lee had gone. She said she found him in a nearby room . . . She asked to talk with him.

I said, ‘People like you and me don’t talk to each other that much, but this feels like something that we really need to talk about face to face,’” Smith said.

The brief conversation was a remarkable moment at a time of intense partisan antipathy — and a reminder that Republican and Democratic senators are in some ways bound together by growing concern for their safety.”
