My father died when I was 16 I received social security until my 18th birthday. It was essential in helping my mom (who had never worked) get on her feet and find a job so we could stay in our house.
Fifth grade? Damn that's horrible, my mother was diagnosed when I was an adult and that was hard. I could imagine it would have been harder if I was a child.
Also like him, I can't get a job outside of the house as I have to help take care of her and social security has kept us from going homeless.
I know many people who had to retire early because of health issues. They wanted to work, but their body wouldn’t let them. Republicans think everyone should work until they die it’s them… then they think they deserve every possible government benefit that exists.
Wait..what did he do besides bump gums for 25 hours? What legislation was he blocking? And did he mention anything about the genocide in Gaza? Khalil? Mangioni? Anything of substance?
If someone else wants to do this, they could easily spend 25 hours reading letters from people who were helped by the government...and not because they were bad people.
He didn’t do shit, it wasn’t even a filibuster. There was no bill to be stopped. Do something real instead of this performative bullshit where whoever has the biggest bladder becomes leader of the Democratic Party.
Exactly correct. Booker is the biggest corporate shill imaginable, and this 24 hour production number accomplished absolutely nothing. It was a fundraising ploy.
Finally someone with some cojones!
Not that stupid Fetterman who is full of baloney!
Cory Booker stands up to rail against the Lying King!
For hours and hours Cory did sing!
Now we need some more senators to stand up!
And drink from that big truth cup!
Good luck to anyone needing social security now. Elon is doing everything he can to make it impossible to receive benefits. Now tariffs? We need more than a speech. Apologies for being negative.
I don’t. I don’t think the people in our country are more important than Palestinians. I believe the people of Palestine have the right to live in peace and safety. Booker just likes taking money from the Israel lobby. And corporations. Why are democrats so gullible?
