Last year, Paul Ryan took a selfie with a group of Capitol Hill interns, and you had to squint really hard to find a non-white face in the bunch.

Yes, they sure are shaking up the status quo here, Cathy. Twitter had some apt comparisons.

The good news is, there is a black person in the back, so you’re not allowed to criticize them anymore!
