Senator Cory Booker enters his 16th hour on the Senate floor for his filibuster. He gets emotional while reading a letter from a constituent who was laid off from USAID by Elon Musk and DOGE. Thank you, Cory!

It’s been one week since the news broke about Trump’s team sharing sensitive military information in a group chat. If Pete Hegseth had even a sliver of self-respect, he’d have resigned one week ago. And if Donald Trump were truly a leader, he’d have fired Hegseth one week ago.
