i'm surprised by how low energy and farcical that whole military parade situation was. I was expecting Moscow 1945 and we got Spirit Halloween instead.

Just incredible the scale of peaceful rallies today in the midst of all the tensions and chaos Trump has deliberately stoked.
No matter how much Trump and those who share his authoritarian desires create mayhem and conflict, the American people still showed up at our patriotic best. #NoKings

Booker, just minutes away from the speaking record: "This is when the most precious ideas of our country are being tested, where the Constitution and the question is being called -- Where does the constitution live? On paper? Or in our hearts? This is the moment."

The record for the longest US Congressional speech is no longer a filibuster against the Civil Rights Act of 1957 by segregationist Sen. Strom Thurmond.
It's now a speech against Trump's authoritarianism, corruption and demagoguery by Sen. Cory Booker.
24 hours and 19 minutes - and still going.

I’m heading to the Senate floor because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people. You can tune in on CSPAN, YouTube, X, and Facebook.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?
International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy.
Sorry, *was.

This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode the deficit.
3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.
4) Repeat.
Don't let them get away with it.

It’s worth stating this simply: For literally anyone in the US Govt from 1945 to 2025, Signalgate would require an instant resignation—and a criminal investigation. It would be a matter of personal *honor* to resign. The fact Mike Waltz & Pete Hegseth are choosing to fight it out is a terrible omen.
