I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

SEN. BOOKER KICKS OFF LENGTHY FILIBUSTER TO PROTEST TRUMP REGIME

I keep waffling between a feeling of calm resolve and absolute panic. Will I be forced to use my body to carry kids I don't want and can't afford? Are all of these court decisions going to actually stop this circus? Are our protests actually doing anything?

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history.

Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

🚮
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..."

Opinion | DOGE says it’s saving $100 billion. It’s about to lose a lot more.
Cuts to the IRS will backfire by giving tax evaders a free pass.

We deserve more leaders like AOC who have the spine to stand up for us when it matters most ✊🏼
A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

As a millennial, I think what hurts the most is that I've been grieving the idea of America my whole life. I want it to succeed and I want to help the country grow. We've just been forced to watch failure after failure when what we wanted was the America we were told we could have.

My one year of property tax relief was kinda nice 🥴 I hate that our blue dot is going to go down with the rest of the state.
Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts.

And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think

A “we hate him too” sign was recently spotted at the San Francisco Tesla dealership which was likely placed by an employee. Love it.

Is anyone else just fucking exhausted? I have to stress about my corporate job during business hours, and then I worry about the state of the country for all 24 hours. I'm tired on all fronts (I know that's what "they" want).

Since Congress’s allotted funds have already been improperly unallocated, U.S. citizens are questioning whether they are legally required to continue paying federal taxes.
