I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Every so often I remember that LBJ got his district electrified early in his time in Congress, drastically and materially changing lives, and then was basically able to run on that for years, and do other things as a result.
imagine if just once I got a text message from a Democratic politician saying "here are several actual things I did to protect people's lives and make them better, ok thanks for your support" instead of "Sean, I'm dying. [opens message] Dying on the vine unless we hit tonight's fundraising deadline"

I know this can sound kind of silly at a time like this, but doing a war without congressional authorization is ample grounds for impeachment

The San Juan River area is part of what is up for sale in the Republican budget bill. I had the pleasure of spending several days here last week, and all I can say is, call your reps. Protect our public land!

HELP! I'm being inspired against my own will! I'm feeling seen! I'm uncovering hope under layers of cynicsm! Who is this spokesperson for a self-reflective party that is committing to fight back, and what does he think he's doing??
Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

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.

Thank you Senator Cory Booker. This guy truly cares about the people he represents.
"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

And @booker.senate.gov has overwritten Thurmond’s record with 25 hours-plus of arguments for righteous causes. At one point he pleaded for checks and balances, science to compete with China, and research to help your relative with Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s. All in just 3 minutes, give or take.
Booker's team just told MSNBC they’ve gotten 14,000 voicemails from people supporting Cory’s filibuster and sharing their stories—and another 280 million people have liked his speech on TikTok alone.
A masterclass in capturing attention.
Well done.
