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.

Booker: Strom Thurmond’s record always kind of just really irked me. That the longest speech on our great Senate floor was from someone who was trying to stop people like me from being in the Senate. So to surpass that became more important to me.

Fam, remember three years ago when Cory Booker brought tears to all of our eyes when he lifted up Ketanji Brown Jackson? “You are worthy.” That’s who he is. That’s who he’s always been. @booker.senate.gov

Great meeting with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers! When our unions are strong, Minnesota is strong.

America does its best to remind everyone Black lives really don't matter here. In addition to Daniel Perry's acquittal, look at last week's reporting on Memphis police using excessive force against Black residents.

Piers Morgan: “50 years ago, before Roe came in, it wasn't a federal law. So why are you so exercised about it?" BTC: "Prior to Black people having the right to vote, they weren't allowed to vote. I'd be worked up if that was rolled back, too.“

It makes me so angry that this brilliant exceptionally qualified woman could’ve been our next President yet many people chose a disgusting piece of shit criminal instead.

Crockett: That is the type of life that they want us to have in this country is one in which even if you are mediocre, even if you are unqualified but you are white, that will be enough.

What does a group of privileged white male politicians know about oppression? Republicans pushed a bill firing all workers in offices related to DEI - because according to them, diversity oppresses white men. I gave a vocabulary lesson on the meaning of oppression. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCwO...

A lot of Americans are about to find out what the federal government they so despise actually does. Of course by then it will likely be too late.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett: "There has been no oppression for the white man in this country ... it is white men on this side of the aisle telling us, people of color on this side of the aisle, that y'all are the ones being oppressed."
