A Black man just beat the record for the longest filibuster, defeating the record previously held by a man who filibustered the literal Civil Rights Act.
As the time ticked over, Cory Booker announced he did it not out of hatred for who he opposed, but out of love for those who supported him.

Trudeau: "They're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin- a lying, murderous, dictator. Make that make sense. Canadians are reasonable and we are polite. But we will not back down from a fight...Canada will be implementing 25% tariffs against $155b of American goods."

THE TRUTH COMES OUT
Trump’s White House says the veterans his admin fired were perhaps “not fit” for their jobs.
An obscene way to talk about America’s veterans. They put their lives on the line for us. We owe them a debt we can never repay.
Dems are fighting for them.
Trump is mocking them.
