INDEPENDENCE DAY starring Cory Booker Sound up!

Senator Booker — what a fighter. I thank @booker.senate.gov for his extraordinary, record-breaking effort to speak on behalf of and give voice to so many Americans who are alarmed and anxious about the dismantling of cherished and bedrock contracts between the people and their federal government.

I do NOT agree that Bookers speech was “performative” Booker gave the country an education weaving a complex narrative of history and currents events with a backbone of the civil rights movement. Performative acts are not humble and reflective and densely packed with facts and logic.

Duolingo coming through to make me feel better about myself

Progress is a ladder you climb one step at a time.

Democrats don’t leave marginalized communities behind and if you think our party would be better off abandoning the trans community, you can go fuck yourself into infinity.

Jeffries: Elon Musk was just decisively rejected by the voters of Wisconsin. He tried to use his unlimited resources to buy a state Supreme Court seat in Wisconsin—and it failed spectacularly

When you go from a 30pt margin to something more like 10pts in a safe district it means your party is going to get its ass handed to them in swing races. Don’t let any R analysts tell you different.

So true bestie.

Elon Musk decided to turn a Supreme Court race in Wisconsin into a referendum on Elon Musk. You’ll never believe what happened next.

Liberals easily hold their Wisconsin Supreme Court majority, & Elon Musk fails spectacularly despite illegally bribing voters. Republicans underperform Trump by 16-22 points in Florida's special elections. Sen. Cory Booker's record-breaking 24+ hour filibuster energizes Dems. A bad day for GOP.

Sending love to everyone in Wisconsin who showed up to stop Musk from buying another election. This was so important and y'all did it. ❤️

This is why I send these all to spam. I will donate to places I know are legit.

I was talking to my girlfriend and saw the call for Crawford and, in the voice that I’m currently losing to seasonal allergies, interrupted my train of thought to cry out, “Wisconsin! Fuck you, Elon, stuck my dick!” No word yet on what my girlfriend thinks of me now 😂

For those keeping track of @democrats.org today: 🔵 Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) delivered the longest speech in US Senate history, in defense of our democracy 🎤 🔵 Judge Susan Crawford WINS the Wisconsin Supreme Court seat 🇺🇸 🔵Dems MASSIVELY overperform in FL special elections🔥

Wisconsin tells Trump and Musk what they can do with their money. A political earthquake is underway.

Obviously eat shit Elon, but also Robin Vos, the Fitzgerald brothers, and the rest of the Wisconsin GOP.

AMAZING!!! Dems win Wisconsin Supreme Court, and we swung Florida more than 15 points. Republicans should be terrified. Democrats should be energized. The usual grifters and MAGA assets on here will do everything they can to tamp down our success. Don’t let them get away with it.

I’m going to have to unfollow all these big accounts that can’t help shitting on Dems for not doing pointless things that will not only barely delay things but won’t even garner any public goodwill Fuck those people

Polls just closed in Wisconsin. If you're in line and reading Bluesky, I'm guessing you already know that you should stay in line.

This the same bitch who said throw trans and gay people overboard

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

People, the Senate is going to pick its battles because it has to. I am not going to tolerate you throwing Booker under the bus literally minutes after he just did a 25-hour speech because you decided that they need to die on the hill of an ambassadorship.

FACT: You don't destroy the CDC unless you want people to die in large numbers.

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

So Speaker Johnson threw a tantrum today & canceled votes for the rest of the week because he couldn’t wrangle enough support to block new parents from voting in Congress. I guess when you don’t get your way, you just shut it down and send everyone home? The American people didn’t elect us to pout.

"The power of the people is greater than the people in power" Thanks to Senator Booker for showing us how it's done.

IF YOU'RE IN LINE TO PISS ON STROM THURMOND'S GRAVE, STAY IN LINE

Strom Thurmond spoke that long to prevent people like Corey Booker from having a voice & being heard.

And again, it is a Black Person fighting for everyone's rights. WHITE PPL PLEASE TAKE NOTES. ESPECIALLY WHITE CONGRESSMEN AND WOMEN.

Our country witnessed history today. @booker.senate.gov has broken the record for the longest time holding the Senate floor. He did it to give a voice to the working families who are being harmed by Donald Trump’s policies. Thank you, Senator Booker, for fighting for Americans.

Booker accidentally calling Iowa Republican voters racist is a nice way to end the speech, honestly. I would not at all be this articulate or filtered after even a few hours. Y’all would know my innermost thoughts on everything lol

History made. @booker.senate.gov has always been a relentless fighter in the pursuit of justice. The good news? On the floor or off, no matter who’s watching, I know he’ll keep this same fight up.

“I promise you, (John Lewis) that I will do everything possible to make you proud.” —Cory Booker

Cory Booker, winding down: "We need a greater love in this country a greater fight in this country a greater determination." And re: Strom Thurmond: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. The people are more powerful."

Take note of the people who’ve been shitting on this for the last day. You never have to listen to them about anything, ever again.
