YouTube video by Associated Press LIVE: Cory Booker speaks on the Senate floor

A Black man just beat the record for the longest filibuster, defeating the record previously held by a man who filibustered the literal Civil Rights Act.

As the time ticked over, Cory Booker announced he did it not out of hatred for who he opposed, but out of love for those who supported him.

I appear to live rent free in the minds of some of my Republican colleagues.

I wish that they would spend even a fraction of the time that they spend thinking about me, thinking about how to lower costs for American families.

"This is the task: Let us remain engaged and compassionate in the face of brutality, cruelty and overwhelming circumstances we are afraid we cannot meet. And when it seems impossible to bear it all or to go on, rather let us turn toward loving fiercely, toward fervent, immoderate, impassioned love for Earth, for beauty, for the wild, for all beings, for the moon." *** Deena Metzger

Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Yesterday, we tried to get into the US Treasury to find out what Elon Musk is doing with the people’s money and data.

We were locked out, but this is just the beginning.

The people deserve transparency and oversight.

YouTube video by Rep. Jasmine Crockett Crockett Calls Out COWARD Musk

Last week, Elon Musk's staff illegally breached the U.S. Treasury payment system and gained access to millions of Americans' personal data.

We're calling out Elon Musk to put on his big boy pants and answer some questions from the Oversight Committee.

Excellent by @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social "If you’re always consumed by the next outrage, you can’t look closely at the last one. The impression of Trump’s power remains; the fact that he keeps stepping on rakes is missed. The projection of strength obscures the reality of weakness. Don’t believe him."

A beautiful email I received from Dr. Amanda Kemp on the intentions of Martin Luther King. This should be the goal, to change the mindset from fear and hatred to love and understanding! Just resisting isn't enough, there must be a change to the soul of our country!

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person
