Chuck should step aside for him. We have our fighter now 💪

Were there any Republicans there? I know people come and go, I was curious what the protocol is.

My question is why?, and please don't call it a filibuster,there was no legislation or cabinet confirmation scheduled to speak against. And ironically, he spoke while streaming it on TikTok a site he voted to abolish. This was all smoke and mirrors.

morgan2024.bsky.social•6 days ago

I watched it on YouTube. And all things work together for good...so if TikTok can be used for a positive purpose... Sometimes you have to use what you have. There are no votes, but a whole lot of ppl saw at least part of it and were encouraged, proof being commentary on just this site alone.

Who’s next? At this point it is all about damage control, and since we know they aren’t going to hold anyone accountable for unconstitutional behavior, we have to slow down the process of dismantling the U.S. government.

beavercleever.bsky.social•5 days ago

Awesome. Senator Booker was inspiring and is exactly the kind of energy we all need to embrace right now.

techmachine.bsky.social•6 days ago

The way you dismantled that Republican mouthpiece on Morgan show got their attention. I visible saw Ari Fleischer soul leave his body when you proved your point about the seriousness of Trump. I have seen him for years, and he prides himself on his confidence in debating. My dad was a veteran.

techmachine.bsky.social•6 days ago

He was a lawyer, a history teacher, and served in Germany during WW2 would have been impressed by your debating skills. Keep up the great work.

amariiemaerthos.bsky.social•6 days ago

He was great though

A big thanks to Senator Booker and his staff for this moment. And it’s now on all of us to keep this energy going.

If you have a chance, tell the great senator @booker.senate.gov that a grateful nation appreciates him for standing up to the fascist regime. Hero 👏

illuminatusprime.bsky.social•5 days ago

Awesome, Jesse. I'm glad someone is out there calling attention to this disaster.

cmr1097.bsky.social•6 days ago

I’m glad to see leadership emerge from the party right now Hakeem and chuck have been as useful as a wet napkin.

Yep! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

spinningoutloud.bsky.social•5 days ago

On the back of despair and hopelessness across the population, it’s appalling that it was needed. Glad you’re inspired though.

I saw almost the whole thing. It was amazing. 20+ hrs in and he was still on fire! Hearing all of the immigration horror stories back to back broke my brain a little, tho
