Senator Cory Booker has now broken the record for the longest Senate Floor speech, previously held by Strom Thurmond (24 hours 18 minutes).

I’m so incredibly proud of Senator Cory Booker. Not just for demolishing segregationist Storm Thurmond’s filibuster record, but more importantly for sharing real stories on the impact of these policies and actions by the current admin. This is truly good trouble. 🥹 And shout out to the staffers!

Grabbed my laptop and had to shelter in the bathroom for a bit when it got pretty bad a few minutes ago. Has since calmed down. Looks like it’s starting to move out.

This administration is really trying to drag us into fascism. We have to hold strong to our democratic republic that the founders created for us.

I say this not as a criticism because to Shay's point, everything happening is outside the imaginations of most Americans, which is why some really couldn't fathom the threat. And this isn't doom or fear-mongering but realism: ain't no midterm save. This is a four year fight AT LEAST. Prepare

It's ILLEGAL for special government employees to do government work that affects their own financial interests! Musk's companies got $3.3 BILLION in US government contracts in 2024, and now he's deciding who gets federal funding. House Judiciary Dems are calling on the DOJ to investigate NOW.

We just remain focused on contacting our Congress people (no matter their party affiliation) and pushing for the norms to be respected & protected. It’s exhausting seeing so many people just give up & stating it’s over. Thats how you completely lose everything. Please stop. Stand up.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

The international community is booing the US national anthem, the vast majority of fentanyl comes in via US citizens, and the Biden administration secured the same deal of 10,000 border troops in 2021 without plunging the country (and markets) into chaos. But sure, great work 👍

Members of Congress should have their aides stream it and we can share the streams. We must become the media at this point.

It’s so weird the way Phony Stark has it out for USAID, I wonder why. Could it be THIS!?!? 👇 In the 1980s, USAID was responsible for financing projects that apartheid victims viewed as critical in promoting social, political, and economic change through peaceful means.

Call your reps! Call them daily and press them to do something to stop this nonsense. This blatant disregard for the constitution by this administration has to be stopped. Call them all (democrats and republicans).

Called my 2 Senators and my House Rep today about Elon having access to the treasury and our data. I used the 5 calls app. I was able to leave a voicemail for 1 out of the 3. The others had full VM or a long wait to speak to someone. I’ll call again tomorrow and every day until something is done

The dates have been announced for Cowboy Carter!!! I have signed up for the pre-sale! Now, listen...some of you were vocal about how much you didn't care for the album. Please refrain from attempting to buy tickets. There are too few cities and options to be fighting with folks who didn't like it.
