Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
What will you do?

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful.
Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

Cory Booker just gave the longest speech in the history of Congress and concluded by apologizing to everyone who had to stay up all night keeping the chamber open and operating.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

A lot of Booker's staff clearly worked quite hard to prepare for this speech. He is continuing with a coherent presentation after ten hours and 19 minutes.

Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering

Say these words out loud:
“I was wrong. I’m sorry. What can I do to make amends?”
It’s not that hard. We all fuck up sometimes.
Normalize apologies.

I’m a transgender writer.
I’m not your punching bag. Not your project. Not your scapegoat. Not your villain.
I’ve survived worse than your pearl clutching outrage—and I’m still loud, proud and here to stay.
My existence is not up for debate.

Yesterday my son set down his fidget spinner in the center of the mosaic floor in the entryway to to National Museum of Ireland, spun it, and then went to watch from his star sign.
My Irish friend walked over to his star sign to watch as well and said, “now that’s good craic.”

Weird time to promote a book, but Everything Is Tuberculosis comes out in 15 days.
I signed 100,000 copies of the first printing (really! with my hand!) so signed copies are available for preorder now wherever you get your books.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Folks, I know it’s hard to keep up with all the hubbub about POTUS and his executive orders/legislation.
Here’s a POTUS tracker that streamlines it into one link.

RESIST.
Don't quit.
Don't stop fighting.
Don't obey in advance.
Don't stop calling them out.
Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.
Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone.
Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.
