Sen. Cory Booker is putting his body on the line, refusing to let the Senate carry on like democracy isn’t under siege. 👏 Billionaires are staging a hostile takeover, & too many are asleep at the wheel.

👀 We see who’s fighting & who’s complicit.

Right now @booker.senate.gov is filibustering on the senate floor “for as long as [he is] physically able.”

Grateful to see Dems with some fight in them! This part about John Lewis is particularly meaningful.

Check it out and then go find Senator Booker live on every platform!!

Trump needs to enact tariffs to help the oligarch class, cuz if those tariffs helped billionaires as much as the current tariffs help the working man, I'd be ok with that
