Cory Booker sets record for longest Senate speech in marathon anti-Trump remarks that exceeded 24 hours
Cory Booker sets record for longest Senate speech in anti-Trump remarks that exceeded 25 hours
You can't even call this a filibuster because no bill was being delayed. This was a 25-hour yap-athon.
Some of us have special interests
Going to guess what he didn't touch on.
The genocide is Gaza they both support.
Minimum wage they both support in suppressing.
Health care they both support in gouging and leeching the public to death with.
I went on social media and liberals were talking about how they literally cried at the end. I then went off social media.
Man jerks off for more than 24hrs in workplace standoff
he wasn't even blocking anything, fucking loser shit
The dems went right back to confirming republican appointees after this. Booker did what dems always do, preformative bullshit thats ultimately meaningless
exactly. this was less impactful than most performance art, which is what this was.
Democrats do something actually meaningful challenge - difficulty: impossible
So now what? You did your big epic speech and are the republicans going to suddenly have a change of heart about killing the poor?
This wasn’t about stopping Trump, this was a move to grab the reins of the Democrat Party. He made a whole big show of not granting Schumer a moment to speak.
Passing that genocidal torch... Brave. \s
Yep. They will go all "You are right and I am defeated. And also I will pay for WinRar."
Filibustering is passe, I want action!
I don't see anyone cracking jokes about the day he chose to do it on... Too easy?
JFC Cory 'Windbag' Booker.
Dudes mouth has to hurt from talking that much. Im not sure ive talked for 24 hours straight if you added up every word ive said over my entire forty-six years on god's gray earth.
So then I said 'T-Bone, is the primo stuff?' And he said 'Brother, you know that it is.' It was necessary for me to use two euphemisms so I did not sully the august Senate which is one of the finest institutions in our land. America is indeed a bright, shining city on a hill - even now. Even now. And - oh, yes - I respected this fine chamber where we do the people's work. We must always, always respect institutions and where the work is done so the American people can know how much we love and respect America.
We must always make time for civility, comity, and decorum. In addition - there are certainly teenagers and even children watching this livestream of my purely performative activity. Street language is the vernacular. The commonplace is all well and good but not here. Not here. And...where was I? Hmmm...
Oh, yes - he said 'Brother, you know that it is.' And I said 'For reals?' and he said...
Despite everything, it's still fascism
you know there are some deranged libs who watched the whole thing live
imagine watching this and not one of Korone's 24h+ endurance streams smh
the cheeto in the white house has been finally crunched and the republic has been restored now that he has done an entirely symbolic gesture and disrupted literally nothing.

let's all meet up tomorrow at Chez Magnifique for the prix fixe menu and UNLIMITED mimosas.
I wish I knew how to tell all these Dem spammers that I want their party to go down in flames 🔥
Real easy. Simply respond with this.
Did he slip up and admit to killing Malcolm X?
Bet he's got to pee
I mean, Strom Thurmond set up a bucket that he could use while keeping a single foot on the senate floor when he did it.
That's so gross. Real ones know to use a Gatorade bottle.
That's what diapers are for.
