I’m heading to the Senate floor because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people. You can tune in on CSPAN, YouTube, X, and Facebook.

Don’t know that you are reading this but my family needs Medicaid in order to stay alive. I have a BIL who is diabetic, living at home, amputee to the knees. My sister in her last 60’s and my disabled nephew are his caregiver. All are on Medicaid. They will ☠️ without these services.
Late 60’s. My niece is physically disabled with crippling scoliosis. If she had a different choice to work she would 💯. She does good just to manage her pain and SSDI and Medicaid keep her functioning day to day. I’m so tired that billionaires feel this is fraudulent. My niece will ☠️ without it.
My special education students will have so much loss of life without these services. I work with special education students ages 18-21. They will only be able to work part time and will have zero health care without Medicaid. It’s cruel to take their life line away.
Thank you from NY Senator @corybooker.com your final moments John Lewis portion brought tears to this grown man's eyes. Thank you restoring my faith. I thought the Dems were giving up. I'm ready for some "Good Trouble".
Thank you for doing this to draw attention to what we are facing in this country! I hope others follow by your example and it gives voice as a means to rise up against this lunatic administration & to our risk of losing our Democracy!
Thank you Senator Booker for standing up for us and for fighting against our social security being taken away and for protesting DOGE, Elon Musk, unnecessary tariffs, and on and on and on. Thank you for being our voice. We needed it and we need more like you. Thank you.
Congrats #CoryBooker!
From Europe, we find the America that you represent... really great. You are a wonderful guy. You are not like these cheaters. You, #Bernie, #AOC and #manyothers are the future. Great job! #Resist #Democracy #LoveIsStrongerThanHate #BookerIsStrongerThanTrump #PoliticAthlete
Cory Booker represents the greatness of what the USA really stands for. Don't give up on us yet, world. We're still here, we're in the millions, and we're still fighting!
Thank you for your work and dedication to our country. I watched as much of your floor time as possible. We need to get into some good trouble together today!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes!!! This is what we want from you. Fight like we are fighting. Don't backslide (Schumer)with the progress we the people have made. No sitting on hands, no polite decorum. Bring a gun to the knife fight.
❤️🔥Cory & Amy 2028!!!❤️🔥
Thank you for leading the way!
You spoke at my daughter's commencement and I really felt like I was hearing a speech from a future president!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. From a fellow son of Harrington Park and NVRHS, you are definitely making good trouble yesterday, today, and tonight. And I know you're not nearly done. I'm in awe of your eloquence, not to mention your stamina. You're exactly what we need in today's times.
Thank you so much, Senator, for your passion and for sharing our pain. You're meeting this moment the way we need you to, like a warrior. We appreciate you and hope you and your colleagues continue to meet this moment with the same fervor.
Thank you @booker.senate.gov Your advocacy is appreciated and so needed. Dems need to stand up as you are doing and take turns holding that floor - shut it down! When is @schumer.senate.gov being replaced? This can’t happen fast enough. 💪
You GO, Senator!! We met a few years ago at a small gathering in Golden, CO. I'm listening on C-Span2 tonight. God Bless you for getting into GOOD TROUBLE! John Lewis would be proud. In fact, he would be joining you tonight if he were still with us! THANK YOU!!!
Wow dude! Just wow! It's about f'in time the Democratic Party took a stand and you are really outdoing yourself. I'm tired for you LOL. Love it and I hope this is just the beginning. I hope it really changes the mind of so many who thought Trump and Musk were the best option for the country.
We are frightened. I am staying up and watching you speak for us! Save our social security. I am 69 years old and worked my whole life. This is just awful.
Mr Booker. Do you have higher aspirations? I have been astonished by you on CSpan for hours and wondering why it took this long for me to discover you. I remember how I felt the first time I heard Obama give a speech. I am having those same feelings. I would definitely support you. Thank you.
Glad your talking, but maybe you can try doing an actual filibuster, blocking unanimous consent (which u have let go through 100s of times) or making qorum calls? 'cuz this just feels like virtue signaling when you have the power to easily do more. Stop pretending like ur a helpless citizen.
Cory, go baby go!!!!!! Greetings from Bluesky where all the democrats go to bitch and plan. We are so proud of you. We are all rooting for you and appreciate every single minute you stay up there. Today, you are our hero!!!!!! Thank you so much
Hey. Defanging Fox and copycats might be helpful in turning off the DT support. Show what they do and then show what is true. Let people know how Fox does it and why it’s harmful. Defang Fox.
It’s 9:45am. Senator Cory Booker has been at the podium all night. I’m so proud of him. It fills me up with emotions and tears. Thank you Senator Booker. I hope the rest of the senate Dems are in line to step up and defend American values. Who’s next???
We've been listening all day. THANK YOU doesn't touch it. You are an inspiration and we needed the leadership. Please keep fighting. We will fight with you! Thank you!!!!
Thank you, Senator Booker (and friends)! Praying for strength and clear headedness for you as this continues (As I type this, you're about to finish Hour 6.)
You are incredible - Thank you for all you are actively doing!! Sending you lots of support from Cleveland Ohio, definitely not getting our voices heard or even a reply from our Senators about anything I’ve called or written to them about.
I walked the grounds of the Capitol today for two hours sharing my pride in you for all your amazing words and your true caring for this country and all its people. Thank you for trying to force us to pay attention to be irreparable harm being done to our country and us.
OK, I just read that it’s not technically a filibuster as he’s not attempting to prevent a nomination or legislation from passing. So is he allowed bathroom breaks? US politics confuse me!
I am listening to you as I prepare veggies for dinner. Usually, I would think “Ah, nice guy, but a bit of a political stunt.” After a few minutes, I am weeping as I clean the freaking Brussels sprouts. I hope you can make it to a new record. Hang in there. We are listening.
I just called his office and left a voicemail and it was emotional for me too!! I totally feel you on this! I'm so moved by his commitment to this country. I have immense respect and gratitude for him. I see him as heroic. Fighting for us! ❤️🤍💙 🥊 🥊🇺🇸⚖️
And yes, he did break the record, and not by reading cook book recipes, but by sharing his passion and beliefs! I have been watching the last 13 hrs of the total 25+ hrs, doing this from Vienna, Austria. It’s 2:15 am here, but when he was still going strong I just couldn’t call it a night.
💙💙💙🇺🇸💙💙💙
Saying these things about Elon Musk while using his platform is hypocrisy. Americans were fed up with the Democratic lie, hence why Trump was elected to do exactly what he is doing now.
I'm Curious Cory, how in this world are you still communicating on X formally Twitter? Please delete and encourage your colleagues to delete their X accounts please!⏳🏛
Amercia needs more people to stand up and speak against all that the fools in the administration are doing!
The rest of the world is watching...
Thank you Mr Booker!

I’m calling both of mine again tomorrow. I already sent them emails to their offices.

Thank you Cory Booker!
INCREDIBLE!!!👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️
Keepin on
Well done Senator
Hey @schumer.senate.gov, this is what leadership looks like, you monied, collaborating assclown.
You are right: the Republicans are ignoring the rule of law + the Constitution, while choosing to hurt Americans + our standing in the world.
Thank you for standing up for us + for democracy. Keep it going!
As the granddaughter of people who relied on Medicaid to afford nursing home care, I thank you.
As a person of faith, I thank you.
As an American, I thank you.

#SenBooker
Well done Senator, we see you fighting from the other side of the world. Stay strong. Good trouble.
Can you share what political tools you think they should use to define it?

It would be amazing to see other democrats.Take a page from your book.
Democratic Senators’ collaboration with the corrupt Musk/Trump CR was a low point that cannot be repeated.
Hopefully this helps inspire a leadership change.
TRUE PATRIOT!!!
I SUPPORT YOU !!
STANDING UP FOR OUR COUNTRY ❤️👍
Love some good trouble
You friggin’ ROCK. ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
FUCKING FINALLY someone in congress is showing some cojones!!!!! Muchas gracias Senator!!!!!
#GoCory!
Side question: Can I kindly ask why you’re still on X ? X should disappear. Why do you still communicate there ?
💙💙💙🇺🇸💙💙💙
And THANK YOU!
The rest of the world is watching...
Thank you Mr Booker!
