Today I live-streamed for 5 hours with 6,000 people and I am tired.

I have NO IDEA how Cory Booker did 25 hours, but I hope he becomes president someday.
God Bless Cory Booker!

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.

Longest speaking filibuster ever was 24 hours, 18 minutes by Strom Thurmond in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

In a few hours, that record will be shattered by Sen. Cory Booker, a Black man, laying out the case for saving democracy from an aspiring despot.

I’m sick… go down the rabbit hole… watch all the videos, follow all the bread crumbs. This was the plan all along. They were saying it out loud but they didn’t want to listen. We need to unite for peace and the betterment of the world

These absolute morons are going to destroy the United States.

If you’re in favor of the US leaving NATO, you either don’t want the US to succeed, or you don’t know wtf NATO does.

Worth noting that Mike Lee voted to expand NATO in 2022.

Tomorrow is a national protest day in the US. Protests are organized at the White House and state capitals, but if you can’t find an event or time that works for you, go when and where you can. If there is no event organizer, you are the event organizer. Announce it below,👇 hashtags #3E #USProtests

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

The time is now. Wearing all black for Presidents’ Day, the death of democracy in America
It’s sad on the eve of Presidents Day it’s appropriate to have to post this.

Instead of working on the needs of America, they are ripping apart the government. They are demolishing programs to assist the people and lining their pockets with money. They are building a slave nation for the top 1%. We need to fix the government, but Trump isn’t it
Jeffries: "They have no interest in improving the quality of life of hard-working American taxpayers. Instead, what they're trying to do, while they distract people, is to jam the GOP tax scam down the throats of people ... it's a toxic bait and switch."

“F around, and find out” they are in the find out stage… we don’t have to just take it! It is time for the people to take back the government!
Here’s the thing. Every one of these people in tears heard Trump on the stump before Nov. They knew he was cruel. But they were fine with it, thinking he’d only hurt the people they didn’t like. The problem with cruelty—It spreads. You don’t get to control it. Sooner or later, it comes for you too.

A point to consider.
This is probably the most accurate take.
