@booker.senate.gov I have a lot of respect for what you did holding the Senate floor this week. And I wish greatly that your vote today was more consistent with “redeeming the soul of our nation” - bc it was certainly not that. Palestinian genocide will not redeem this country’s soul.

So far, there's a lot more evidence that fighting back can work than that it can't, whether it's through the courts, mobilizing public opinion, or even in some reported cases GOP politicians complaining.
Following a White House anti-DEI order, the National Cryptologic Museum covered up exhibits of women and people of color in its Hall of Honor. The NSA reversed course after former employees mobilized.

There is genuinely something pitiful about watching billionaires whimper about their oppression (which mostly amounts to the decreased freedom to oppress others) and also something disgusting and ridiculous. Welcome to the clown show. The hungry ghost parade. The very sad scorpion pit.
