So I went to go help.

All you do is talk you imbecile. No one is surprised you have found a way to talk some more with nothing to show for it.

I hope he breaks Strom Thurman‘s record. That racist should be beaten by this incredible man. @booker.senate.gov

lestatdelc.bsky.social•84 days ago

That it would be broken by a person of color would be a chef's kiss.

sanders-2016.bsky.social•83 days ago

Why don't all the Democrat senators take 4 hour shifts and keep the filibuster going? With more than 42 of them they would each only have to take one turn per week.

Because they don't care?

coherentlight.bsky.social•84 days ago

You can help by asking Chuck Schumer to step down.

retiredmsgt.bsky.social•84 days ago

When are taking your turn? When is Sen Padilla, Warren, Schumer or anyone else doing this…. Maybe not to break Sen Booker’s time but to call attention to trump administration actions & the consequences for their constituents… since the news is covering this pretty good

I really hope Sen. Booker can keep going past the old record of 5 h 18 m, set in 1958 in attempt to block rights. (Note 1958 record was set when the rules allowed restroom breaks.)
Sen. Booker will make a point that a pursuing a GOOD cause is more inspiring than a supporting an unworthy one.

Why didn’t you or one of your white colleagues do this instead of waiting, once again, for a Black person to have the courage to hold vigil for this country?

binahmuchness.bsky.social•84 days ago

This was definitely for Cory Booker to do because of the record being broken, but our Dem Reps could have got up off their asses and not done the CR. That would have been a great start. Maybe not rolling over and playing dead. They need to slow down every single vote and not agree to anything.

gaiasdaughter.bsky.social•84 days ago

I hear you, but I think the intent was the poetic justice that Corey Booker is the one to break Strom Thurmond’s hateful filibuster record in which he attempted to stop the Civil Rights Act of 1957.
