Rand Paul, Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell and Lisa Murkowski.
Haven't they all voted against or resisted (relatively speaking) Trump before?
Perhaps these are four GOP senators who want to ensure they will be welcomed in Canada when they flee the U.S. out of a concern for high-story windows.
Susan Collins wins here in Maine partly by cosplaying as an "independent maverick" who is "above politics". Whenever there is a vote with a completely certain outcome, she is given permission by the GOP to vote against them to maintain that image.
She's never actually resisted the GOP leadership.
These states have a vested interest in good business relationships with Canada. From geographically close to Canada, to Canada being largest buyer of Kentucky alcohol....its all about $ at the end of the day
Susan Collins just voted this way because she knew it wouldn't go anywhere and an occasional useless lefty vote is how she stays "concerned" while effectively just being a republican. She does this constantly. She always votes Republican when it matters.
She only pulls out the concern when
It doesn’t matter. She’s phony as hell and has never been the deciding vote for something good or fair to actually be accomplished
To be fair it is the House of Reps that get numbers based on population and the Dems lost that too. Partially because of Gerrymandering but also because there are a lot of folks who decided not to vote. We need better civics classes to help people understand why voting matters every time.
An enormous amount of American manufacturing relies heavily on Canada. From cheap metals, to cheap wood, to cheap oil. It’s all a huge net gain to the US, which Trump has wildly reframed as a loss. They simply can’t spool up their “made in America” plans if they cut off Canada.
Cutting off Canada by killing the autopact and hurting people, US manufacturing, agricultural, etc, etc sectors reminds us that we still have allies that can be trusted. And lots of other trade deals to exploit.
Unfortunately Canada will never again be the partner it was after this. This will in the long term cost the US hundreds of billions if not Trillions even after the tariffs are rescinded. (Which on their own will cost the US trillions)
And while the US has oil, it costs more, they may or may not be able to eventually supply the metals but that’ll take a long time, and they simply Don’t have the lumber supplies Canada does and never will. (Think housing).
Canadians travel to the US is way done (airline bookings are down 70% from now to Sept). We stood up and gave an F you to Trump. Many states are feeling it.
Seriously, when are @democrats.senate.gov voting to place you in the position of #MinorityLeader? You are such an amazing voice, and just the voice and leader right now! @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @blumenthal.senate.gov as my senators, please make this happen.
That's great, Senator Booker! So proud of you and pleased these four republican senators are speaking up!
Now, what to do about Mike Johnson and the House measure that disallows a vote on the measure just passed in the Senate to end Trump's economic emergency declaration that allows these tariffs?
I don’t support Netanyahu. I am American Jew &stand with the 70% of Israelis who protest their government every Sat night!
Being a Zionist is supporting our Jewish state on our ancestral homeland &its freedom&safety.
It has nothing to do with ANY of Israel’s governments past, present, or future.
First, thank you for replying.
Second, though I am a against Zionism for the simple fact that I do not believe you can have a democracy based on religion, I have no problem with your position as long as it rejects colonialism and accepts the 1967 borders, with a free Palestine.
My pleasure.
So by your explanation you would support Zionism if Israel was a theocracy? Like the 59 Muslim majority countries?
Your issue is with it being majority Jewish and a democracy?
Bibi needs to go--The Jews can defend their homeland of Israel from genocide without dictatorship. But sadly, constant war seems to make a nation radical.
The baffling thing is the USA acting like radicals in war. Our "war" is all made-up paranoid fantasy for election politics ...
Actually 70% of Israelis have been protesting against the government every Saturday night.
Israelis have been protesting against Netanyahu weekly for YEARS!
They are fighting there what we are now fighting here.
And they want the hostages home!!!
Well, I think your 70% figure is fantastical, I'm very happy to hear that you realize that Netanyahu is a criminal both in Israel and internationally.
Does this mean that you do support the 1967 borders and finally giving Palestinians freedom that they've never enjoyed?
Just like with every other authoritarian regime in history Bibi needed, and allowed funding of Hamas, to have an effective boogeyman, stoking the radical sentiments in his own country which he relied on.
When you have a war monger in charge you will have constant war.
Even when it was just kibbutzim, the Jews there were always attacked. Israel has been constantly attacked long before Bibi.
The world supported Hamas thinking it was becoming a real government. Everybody was very stupid about Hamas, and Hamas has forced it into this current epic mess.
Only in your demented mind did the world support Hamas, they supported peace. And, by effectively making Gaza an open air prison, while expanding illegal settlements, Bibi turned up the heat hoping for any excuse to 'justify' his genocide.
Now, you justify fighting terrorism with more terrorism.
The logical fallacy you are demonstrating is the straw man: a person is celebrating getting rid of tariffs, and you bring up a man who is directing the death of tens of thousands of people. Logical question: how can a party of small govt and capitalism support expanding interference to free trade?
I'm sorry, but you clearly do not understand what a logical fallacy is. My comment has nothing to do with tariffs at all.
I can agree with them about tariffs while still pointing out that they are a massive hypocrite in their support of fascist in Israel.
Did you see their profile name?
That’s right, you didn’t mention tariffs, and that’s why it’s a fallacy. The celebration was in response to a vote against tariffs. You brought in a non sequitur. As a counter argument.
That's not what a logical fallacy is. And you don't understand a non sequitur either because it would imply it was a conversation which it wasn't.
I simply brought up a different topic with a question to the account, which has not been replied to.
Being Jewish does not mean she supports Netanyahu. Being against fascists means opposing fascist actions, like silencing opposition and demanding total allegiance. I don’t see your logic.
THANK YOU @booker.senate.gov, I have renewed (if cautiously optimistic) hope again! ✊ #standourground #therevolutionwillbetelevised #thisiswhatdemocracyissupposedtolooklike
Sir, all 4 of them had the chance to impeach him multiple times and did not. They helped build this with every vote they made for decades. Wow one whole vote. They made the monster now they flee from it when it grows teeth. They shoulda thought about that during his impeachments. Now they are
responsible no matter what they do after 2 months of rubber stamping everything for him. They created this monster now they flee it like it was a low income child they forced to be born that is asking for food. No one should forgive them or be promoting them as the good guys. We are past that.
He knows that even better than we do. And he has to work with the smelly fockers every single day. Well said, but give Cory a break and don't lecture the poor man.
Thanks for the effort of the four senators who joined the dems to rid the tariffs on Canada. Please find your voices to stop trump before he destroys the country beyond repair. Soon.....
If you do choose to protest peacefully, in person this weekend, Alison Gary has some of the most useful, practical, real-world advice that you'll ever get! And be sure to also check other recommendations here for how to protest safely.
great! now can you get the rest of this mess deleted in the morning? Weekend's coming up, you know. I know you're probably still pooped, but delegate! :D
Congress could end all of this tomorrow if they chose to, Republicans needs to grow a backbone and stop being the battered victim of a violent partner.
When we shop, we now have apps to scan the UPC code to find out quickly if a product on the shelf is Canadian.
If it is from US, we flip them backwards or upside down, that way the next shopper understands it’s from the US. Grocers have donated unsold US products to the food bank and not ordering
Europe Asia, Australia and some Latin American countries are joining Canada to boycott of American products and services.
They will receive the return for their actions with more force than they are putting into abusing others.
Sorry American friends, but your government is demonic.
No offense taken. 100% agree. The sins of the mango mussolini "father" being visited upon America's sons and daughters...FWIW, I support every country and citizen taking a stand against the US. No matter how we feel about each other as people, the geopolitical aggression of the US needs answered!
Crossing my fingers that the spineless electeds wake the fuck up and grow spines. We are in a major mess from all sides: the social safety net, which was strained & underfunded, is collapsing on all sides as the DOGE effect spreads. Public health, SSA are crashing. Civil rights, EPA, so much more!
Nah. They think it's "temporary" in Trump’s grand Master plan to make America great. That it's all worth it if it hurts others that they, as per their usual snowflake egos, feel victimized by. You know, libs, other countries, immigrants, reality. It's a deep state plan, and trump is fixing it. 🙄
Don't be sorry for standing up for yourselves, American citizens are just as complicit in our governments actions, by allowing it to continue and by voting them in office.
You are 100% correct! Thank you for doing your part to do damage to this AWFUL government of ours…it might make it easier to get them all voted out (or maybe even some impeached)!
American here, thank you. Not sure if you feel like you're on my side, but I feel like you are. These people are bonkers and need to be treated that way at every turn. Even the people who voted for them mostly didn't think they'd do this shit.
I feel the exact same way. It sucks to be punished for the sins of America's Father, but from the perspective of other countries and their impacted citizens, it is a just fate in this moment. It just really sucks how badly this and other policies will harm so many folks and small businesses.
True. Cans & boxes turned upside down on shelves are another evident clue. First row of Habitant & Campbell's soups were all upside down at my grocery store. Store clercks don't even bother to straighten them up anymore. 😂
Canadians are rethinking their relationship with America. US has fucked up pissing off countries that border us. Zelensky was right when pointing out US has been safe because we have oceans between us and our enemies. US is arrogant.
But they are working in unison, speaking their lies. Creepy and horrifying. The sociopaths have found each other and are unified. Eventually they will turn on each other but the damage to the US may not be recoverable. We will not recognize our country.
I ❤️ 🇨🇦 We, the people (THIS one anyway) thanks you for helping to put our awful government in its place. I’m hoping this will make it easier to get them voted out (or impeached!).
Ah good, I knew shit was going to get real in April. Happy to see things moving now. Great work everyone! I am too sick to do much but cheer others on at the moment.
This means nothing. The house won’t let this take one breath on their chambers…please don’t give credence to Paul and McConnell who are doing this in a desperate attempt to keep the GOP vote in Kentucky. Collins and Murkowski? Their days are numbered. Their constituents are going to vote blue.
I don't agree on several levels. This is the first crack in the armor. How come they always look to the women to stick their neck out first. Wisconsin is showing the way. The House committee can be discharged.
Trump's authority to tariff is because of the "emergency" he declared right. If they are declaring no such emergency, then do you need a veto proof majority?
He threw a temper tantrum when there was a bilateral revolt against him trying to prevent new parents from voting by proxy & recessed the house until next week. & he ultimately decides what comes to the floor. But I think there are ways around that, w/ enough support. I think…
Holy Hypocrite Johnson is the biggest problem
GOP Cowards are the problem
Stop them & we can stop #Trumpism
Rep Luna & Rep Pettersen show that when both sides work together?
They can win
What is happening now must STOP before Trump, Musk & GOP destroy democracy & our freedoms
"The Senate adopted a resolution by a vote of 51 to 48 aimed at blocking the...proposed tariffs on Canadian imports. The four Republicans who voted with Democrats were: Sens. Rand Paul, who cosponsored the resolution, Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell and Lisa Murkowski."
What pressure can you put on Mike (no bank account) Johnson to bring the Res. to the floor for a vote. His all days are one day is a blatant viscous excuse that cannot stand. We can’t let Trumps fake emergency ruin our economy with these stupid tariffs.
If I did not want to be suspended , I would spell out in pretty graphic detail what voters need to do to Speaker Johnson and all other Republicans . If anyone lives in his neighborhood...they have the means .
One country down, how many to go? The silent majority republicans know this is fatal to the American economy even though they say otherwise. It is time for them to take back the Constitutional control of the purse from trump. There was no justification for allowing it. There was no emergency. Resist
@schumer.senate.gov normally, I would make a snarky comment about how you should take note, but since you helped Sen. Booker to continue and sustain his filibuster, I'll pass on the snark today, please continue giving opportunities for the you get leaders to lead.
It’s a start! Let’s remain calm and vigilant… remaining focus is what we all need right now. And I’m liking the odds rn. Evil never fucking wins. And we will save our democracy.
At this point, there are no bills that can be drafted by Republicans to impede Donald Musk's "bull in a China shop" regime. The only way to save their jobs is to draft the articles of impeachment and follow through this time.
Sorry, but call me when the House also cracks.
I know you're trying, but maybe announcing that you will stop taking money from Bain Capital and NorPAC would be more useful.
If Collins and Murkowski could be persuaded to switch party allegiance to independent, they could save the nation. Can you have a serious chat with them? It shouldn't need more than ten hours this time.
Seriously. It is long past time for both of them to own up to their inner reasoning. They’ll be better off in their next elections if they truly caucused with Dems. Susan Collins, especially.
Speaker Johnson already declared [Democratic] Senator [Tim] Kaine’s resolution dead on arrival in the House of Representatives. It will never make it to President Trump’s desk," Republican Whip Sen. John Barrasso said in a statement after the vote.
I truly wish more of our democratic "leaders" would take that advice and speak up! We were beginning to think we were alone out here.
The only ones we feel give a crap about us are you, AOC, and Bernie, making headlines fighting for us publicly. Everyone else is silent and we're pissed!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Beautiful. Masterful. Heartfelt. You are a Hero and a force to be reckoned with…
#Bravo now rest your voice. Rest your body. And we will keep on keeping on; thanks for being the inspiration, being that beacon of hope, & an eloquent leader we hv all needed in this moment #CoryBooker 💙
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Please get with AOC,Bernie,walz. I want to see a united front #democracy #democracia #democrat #republican #america #fucktrump #usa #nokings #resistfacism #notmypresident #bluewave #putinspoodle #patriot #powerofthepeople #50501movement #move.org #shutdowngovernment
More GOP need to speak up against this dumb prez. He has no reasoning behind what he does. Example…tariffs on the Antarctic Islands inhabited by only penguins. He’s turning the US into a laughingstock.
Trump trying to show how much of a great businessman he is by attacking the nonexistent exports of adorable flightless birds is far from the only sign the dude genuinely has dementia but its certainly the funniest/least harmful one I think.
But Mike Johnson, who cheetoputin saved , is owned by cheetoputin trump.He stopped Congress from being able to do the same.
Republicans must end Mike Johnsons leadership. The republican voters are mad. They are watching and voting to save America, NOT trump. Vote out the kiss ass Republicans.
There wasn't! There was unanimous consent for delaying the vote on the appointment for six more minutes. Then the vote was held and Democrats voted no.
Luna's voting with the Dems on this proves that when their interests are impacted and impeded, there CAN be bipartisan action. We need to figure out HOW to impact and impede their interests.
What I understand is even if he claims to take away taxes on those extra sources, those extra dollars are just going to burn in products that are much more expensive. You won't see the gains if almost every imported products is much more expensive to buy.
What Trump is doing is bold and risky. That's certain.
On the other hand, continuing on the current path with huge deficits and SS/Medicare going broke, was certain doom. And when SS/Medicare hits the wall, the decline will accelerate.
The status quo failed and something needed to be done.
Nothing needed to be done to those programs — unless you’re a super high income earner who wants lower taxes. So screw the poor. 40% of births is this country are funded through Medicaid. Musk/ Trump has no business touching them, and he lied to boot. No surprise there.
SSI and Medicaid are easily fixable. They /Musk float lies and want to sabotage them because they wants privatization , the opposite of what SSI was created for. Raise the cap to solve the SSI problem. Hands off it all. The disabled , elderly - please. A country is not a company.
Those tariffs will actually be a tax on everyone who buys virtually anything in the U.S. And by everyone, I mean every restaurant worker, every person on SS, everyone who works overtime, everyone with an income under $150K. So how do tariffs help all those people?
You’re really struggling with the math here. If we pay much more for *everything*, for some presumed tax benefit, that doesn’t impact all of us, that’s at best zero sum, and it makes necessities unaffordable for the most vulnerable.
Right. Now subtract your alleged “savings” on SSI, Overtime, tips and an effective tax rate on those who fall between 35 and 150K. Like with all traitor trump economic policies, you end up with a deficit. That’s not a “redistribution”. What aren’t you comprehending about that simple fact?
The Trump Tariff Tax is the largest tax increase in the history of the USA. It will fund the largest tax cut in history — to the mega wealthy. Could get same benefits you tout without tariffs if we just raised the marginal tax rate on the wealthy. Without the economic chaos.
Mike....do you seriously think this is going to happen? Anyone earning $150,000.00 will pay no taxes? Has anyone guaranteed that? What about the tariffs you will have to pay? They are taxes. Presently you are paying them for cdn aluminum/steel/oil/cars (made in the states)/more to come!
Those 53 Republicans in Senate should be swamped with calls daily by all sane Americans. Do your jobs to protect against this madness. The goal of this admin is to destroy the economy and the dollar.
Yes. It’s a waist of time celebrating a few self serving GoP who for a change, did something that served all of USA and the global economy. Focus on the deplorable senators who capitulated to dimwit POTUS.
I am asking you again to please also speak up for the Palestinian people. Theyre going through a genocide by the Israeli govt including land grab, racism, rapes, & kidnapping. That 8.8 billion dollars would be better spent literally anywhere else. We have their blood on our hands & we must end it.
The US is on fire because people cared way too much about Palestine and thought sitting home or voting 3rd party, or voting for Trump was the way to “send a message”.
What most people missed during the last election is that you can care about BOTH THINGS. People that threw their votes away because of only wanting to protest the genocide were definitely foolish however that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t care at all. Because it was obvious Trump was worse for Palestine
I disagree that we cared too much about Palestine. I voted for Kamala, but also dont disagree we that a lot of ppl choose to do the wrong thing for the election, but seeing how I think elon bought & rigged along with Russia it wouldnt have mattered. Were here now anyway& must help Palestine survive.
The US is burning because it prefers capitalist cannibalism over wellbeing and education of its people. Third party voters aren’t responsible in a system designed to alienate them. A huge Democrat myth is that most citizens are democrats if they just voted. It’s delusional.
Americans care because we don’t want out legal residents and citizens to be sent to a Gaza style concentration camp in El Salvadore. We don’t want to become Gaza.
I am concerned about myself, my family, my state, and my country, then I can worry about the world. Your tantrum allowed Trump to help Israel finish the job and also revoke USAID aid cause the impending deaths of tens of millions of people worldwide.
describe wanting a genocide stopped a tantrum shows exactly where you would be before WWII, native cleansing, civil rights era, latin american death squads, genocide of iraqis, etc...
genocide joe/kamala were not going to stop the genocide. and you types thought you didnt need the votes. ur choice.
palestinian genocide is just a PREVIEW of what is to come.
the american-israeli genocide policy broke ALL NORMS.
american rights are up for grabs for a reason, because the were always fake...the genocide exposed that indirectly. america was built on cleansing, slavery...just plain old supremacism.
I wonder how much of that single issue voter mentality was pushed by Russian bots to sabotage the election. We could certainly do a lot more to help that war if folks had voted for Harris.
Let this teach us to vote every time no matter what, and consider multiple factors.
They bought of Kamla and crippled the Tim Waltz. Yet let's vote for sell-out kamal she'll fix everything.... she's a fucking zionists Joe she said it I'll chage noting from Joe. Joe gave Isreal over 22 billion in 1 year.
Cared way too much about the US being involved in a genocide? I don't think that's possible. I disagree with not voting, or worse, voting for Jill Stein, but not caring enough about Palestine is why we are here. They should've voted for Kamala, full stop, but ending the genocide is key to stability.
I think that the US and the world is on fire because of tech billionaires actually! Look at the Philippines and what happened. Will you blame everyone there for the drug war started by Duterte?
It should be concerning that our politicians allow our country to burn because their priority is Israel and not the US. They all go kiss the wall and pledge their allegiance to an illegal foreign state.
The American political system is sensitive to low voter turnout. The Republicans were fully aware of this and convinced millions of Americans to not participate.
We didn't really help by pushing the narrative that the polls were up really high lulling people into a false sense of security. That was one of the mistakes last time he won.
I hear you. I dont like democrats either. They barely represent me, if at all, but we could not afford Trump to do anything different in this system that disenfranchises anyone or any ideal left of dem. The system is not set up to ever allow a 3rd party to thrive, so we have to push and demand more
If everyone that voted dem, magically voted other, other still would have lost. Everyone bitching and withheld vote still would have withheld vote, we would still be in this position.
I get being angry, and I get the message, but the outcome would be the same.
White people have overwhelmingly voted for the Republican (or not voted for the Democratic) party in every general election since the Civil Rights Act passed in 1964.
Telling other folks to join them is how we got here.
We live in a 2-party system. This is what folks chose to happen.
The Democratic Party as a whole is supporting a genocide - if you care, will you add your voice to tell your representatives that’s not okay? They work for you.
I'm not gonna stop speaking up. I will keep writing my senators and I will keep telling my friends about what's going on. I will keep going to protests. I WILL NOT STOP
Thank you @corybooker.com for sacrificing your health to do this for all Americans. The only other person I can think of that would do the same is President Jimmy Carter. He believed in feeding the hungry & housing the homeless. You are both public servants. I always called myself a public servant.
Don't underestimate the power of your words. No , I think your speech touched those 4 Republicans hearts. I was hoping you were wearing Depends during your speech. 😂
I think it was your speech that moved those 4 Republicans. Remember all those times we wanted Republicans to vote with Democrats? When asked by reporters about their vote they hem & hawed pro & con views thinking they might vote with Dems and they always backed down.
Can you please rebuke Trump on his European partners too? And everyone else? As a whole, the EU and Europe have a trade deficit with the US.
Since we are very nice, we ask you to get rid of Trump entirely. Now, please.
Want to know what would be a real solution? stripping the president of their ability to unilaterally impose tariffs - imposing tariffs is a massive economic decision and should involve a consensus between the president and the house not one branch of government deciding to do whatever it feels like.
Eff the GOP. Anyone who votes Republican needs their head examined. It’s like voting for your abusive husband to legally beat you more. Where are your brains, people?
I'd say this is the time to call, call, call ALL this Republicans who voted to block that bill. Let's make them nervous about their reelection. Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121 is good for both Senate and House of Reps. #EnoughIsEnough #SaveMedicare #SaveAmerica #SupportVets #April5th #Resist
Let's fucking go. More of this on EVERYTHING from nominations to SS, VA, medicaid, medicare, education, immigration, EVERYTHING. Fight everything from every direction.
Look, people who are Americans and not tied to a party. People who care about their country. I thought this was something that had “trickled down” out of our reality.
The only emergency needing to be declared is Trump’s attacks on our economy, veterans, seniors, institutions & allies. I know this is wild, but if all #Republicans banded together they could change that. Trump can’t take them all down but they can all take down Trump.
I don't blame the thief (Drump) because thieves gonna steal. I blame the people (GOP and Republicans voters) who knowingly let the thief in, even though the thief told them what he was going to steal from the house.
It is one thing to have a few people believe the lie as people in red hats take everything in the house, telling the owners, they are going to return with better stuff. It is not a few people, it is millions. Gobsmacked.
How about all of the government contracts that were cancelled??? Money that businesses, students etc were counting on and was already appropriated by Congress!!! My daughter was laid off because she did research on FEEDING POOR PEOPLE!!!! Her research company lost millions in contracts. 🤬
Problem is this resolution has to go through the House and be signed by the narcissistic crook in our White House. But bravo to @kaine.senate.gov
the @democrats.senate.gov!
And thank you, awesome @booker.senate.gov! 💙
The four Republicans are self-serving and THEY ARE CULPABLE IN ALL OF THIS.
So true AOC is so compromised.
So is Whitehouse, terribly compromised.
Not to mention Sanders, who caucuses with Dems, so compromised.
Oh, and Swallwell, so compromised.
And those terrible AGs, like Kris Mayes, compromised
Jasmine Crockett, what a wimp.
And Warren so compromised, WTF is the CPB?
tRump is making a total mess of everything and he will
continue to do so & then he will leave it for us Democrats to clean up!! He & his party are doing nothing to help us, they always leave a mess.
This is what happens when Mitch McConnell realizes he's gonna miss his cut of Kentucky bourbon sales, but I do appreciate what you're doing! Keep it up!

Trump’s numbers are all pulled from between his butt cheeks and the world will not accept this economical cannon shot.
Haven't they all voted against or resisted (relatively speaking) Trump before?
Perhaps these are four GOP senators who want to ensure they will be welcomed in Canada when they flee the U.S. out of a concern for high-story windows.
She's never actually resisted the GOP leadership.
Kinzinger, Cheney...
It shouldn't take a tremendous act of courage to do what's right for the American people. I mean, that's the job description!
Mexico is already a bad guy to Republicans so they don’t care as much about those tariffs.
It doesn’t matter. She’s phony as hell and has never been the deciding vote for something good or fair to actually be accomplished
California and Wyoming get the same number of senators.
39.4 million in CA vs <0.6 million in WY.
Now, what to do about Mike Johnson and the House measure that disallows a vote on the measure just passed in the Senate to end Trump's economic emergency declaration that allows these tariffs?

It's amazing to ear Canadians talking at the grocery store, advising each other to #BoycottUSA & standing united.
You're quite amazing yourself, Senator Booker. 👏

@schumer.senate.gov normally, I would make a snarky comment about how you should take note, but since you helped Sen. Booker to continue and sustain his filibuster, I'll pass on the snark today, please continue giving opportunities for the you get leaders to lead.
But some waves begin with a ripple.
Stay resolute, don't back down, and rise above the fear and the lies.
I know you're trying, but maybe announcing that you will stop taking money from Bain Capital and NorPAC would be more useful.
please, just share this and donate $5 even if you can, please 🙏

Speaker Johnson already declared [Democratic] Senator [Tim] Kaine’s resolution dead on arrival in the House of Representatives. It will never make it to President Trump’s desk," Republican Whip Sen. John Barrasso said in a statement after the vote.
Thank you thank you thank you
for being a *good* Senator. (I live in NC.)
The only ones we feel give a crap about us are you, AOC, and Bernie, making headlines fighting for us publicly. Everyone else is silent and we're pissed!
There are others flying under the radar, like Maxwell Frost. Impossible to remember them all every time.
It was just a friendly reminder. 😊
Beautiful. Masterful. Heartfelt. You are a Hero and a force to be reckoned with…
#Bravo now rest your voice. Rest your body. And we will keep on keeping on; thanks for being the inspiration, being that beacon of hope, & an eloquent leader we hv all needed in this moment #CoryBooker 💙
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Republicans must end Mike Johnsons leadership. The republican voters are mad. They are watching and voting to save America, NOT trump. Vote out the kiss ass Republicans.
They pay attention! Call as often as you can... ⏬️

Can we see that withheld?
Four whole Republicans actually care about the economy over His Kingship!
We ALL have to keep it up! Pressure mounting non stop. Don't back down!
Put FOTUS the failed businessman in the White House, expect the economy to take a nose dive.
- No tax on tips
- No tax on overtime
- No tax on SS benefits
- No income tax on those earning < $150k
So why are @democrats.org NOT supporting these things?
On the other hand, continuing on the current path with huge deficits and SS/Medicare going broke, was certain doom. And when SS/Medicare hits the wall, the decline will accelerate.
The status quo failed and something needed to be done.
- No taxes on those receiving SS benefits.
- No income tax on earners making less than $150k.
Those folks certainly are not billionaires.
What you’re defending is incompetent malfeasance.
So tariffs redistribute wealth to those who get no tax on tips, overtime, SS benefits, and earn < $150k (not many billionaires in those groups).
Plus tariffs bring jobs home.
No way I support that.
I’d rather we do like states that have ended the tipped wage and raised the minimum wage.
How?
Four.
FOUR!
Why are they not flooding every news outlet??? Why are they not organizing marches???WTF??

So a little genocide is ok? Blame Palestinians?
What about the weak corporate sponsored status quo Dems STILL puke up as a message?
Or the horrifying fact that 70 million people voted FOR Idiot Hitler?
that's why 9 million stayed home.
your type prefer cheney's to stopping a violent supremacist ideology. why? because america is racism.
genocide joe/kamala were not going to stop the genocide. and you types thought you didnt need the votes. ur choice.
the american-israeli genocide policy broke ALL NORMS.
american rights are up for grabs for a reason, because the were always fake...the genocide exposed that indirectly. america was built on cleansing, slavery...just plain old supremacism.
Let this teach us to vote every time no matter what, and consider multiple factors.

Meanwhile, Palestine is being leveled & they’re murdering aid workers & bombing hospitals and shooting children
If you care about our future as a country we have to stop funding genocide abroad bc it always comes home anyway

I get being angry, and I get the message, but the outcome would be the same.
Telling other folks to join them is how we got here.
We live in a 2-party system. This is what folks chose to happen.

Since we are very nice, we ask you to get rid of Trump entirely. Now, please.
This is not business as usual. You need to get rid of the Republican party, or Fascism will remain.
the @democrats.senate.gov!
And thank you, awesome @booker.senate.gov! 💙
The four Republicans are self-serving and THEY ARE CULPABLE IN ALL OF THIS.
Bernie lost to Hillary, not Kamala.
There are over 700. https://handsoff2025.com/ Spread the word!
So is Whitehouse, terribly compromised.
Not to mention Sanders, who caucuses with Dems, so compromised.
Oh, and Swallwell, so compromised.
And those terrible AGs, like Kris Mayes, compromised
Jasmine Crockett, what a wimp.
And Warren so compromised, WTF is the CPB?
continue to do so & then he will leave it for us Democrats to clean up!! He & his party are doing nothing to help us, they always leave a mess.
You’re always welcome here in Vancouver. We’ve got some fantastic #Vegan restaurants, that I’m sure you’ll love.
