JUST NOW: Cory Booker's marathon speech is nearing its sixth hour. His voice is cracking.

"Today into tomorrow, I'm going to stand as long as I can and read stories like this because you're seen and you're heard."

..........................

I have heard that Democrats are spinless. 🤔
Bravo, Sir.

Have criticized Senator Booker for being pro Pharma and Telecom/Tech (many of his constituents are rank and file employees of these industries) and I've defended him -

I hope it is hitting home why he is so beloved in this state. He should be running for Governor this year - but he knows he is needed in Washington DC.

This country needs him. He's the real deal.

I will never regret time spent away from home knocking on doors, making calls on his behalf, fundraisers attended, or money given to his campaigns. He operates from a place of love and empathy.

In an America being destroyed by evil (Trump, Putin, Musk, Vance, Thiel, Mike Johnson etc etc) be a Booker.

Yes, I've heard the same as you. I've also heard other blowhards and loudmouths saying that there's "no difference" between the Democrats and Republicans... as well as promoting the lie that "both parties" are corrupt (or "bought and paid for'').

But, I guess some folks are compelled to only do and say things that help themselves, rather than doing the things that help to build and strengthen the Democratic party.

* at the expense of Democrats. They both have honor and integrity. That's a trait that I admire very much.
