Wow, what a run. Tremendously proud of my friend and colleague for his display of courage over these 24+ hours. This is exactly what's needed to fight back against Trump's authoritarianism. We're lucky to have him on our side.

Do it. Do what Cory Booker said. You coward.
Pointless Dems.
He was confirmed by the Senate on a vote of 52-45.

Mainstream Dems continue to snub Muslim/Palestinian issues.
That was the time to make a stand
Booker showed how it's done.
What was the point?
We appreciate your service, but it’s time to step aside. We need a fighter for this unique moment, and unfortunately that isn’t you.

Take Senator Booker's words and put them into action.
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.” -Macbeth, summarizing Bloviating Booker.

I'm a 67 year old 1st time protester. I'm out there because I'm afraid for our country. I'm afraid for the people in it.
Call every GOP senator to shame them and every Dem senator to encourage them.

Nothing goes to the heart of 'Resist' like occupying a podium for a day.
Nice work, Democrats
