If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.
We live in a rogue and dangerous country.
Do what you need to do to maintain your internal peace. Hold the core of your spirit. Pray for peace. Commit yourself to justice. And just rest.

Thurmond was afforded a bathroom break and read from the encyclopedia. Booker held the floor the entire time and delivered a consistent, cogent speech for more than 24 hours.
Incredible.
Things that stand out:
- they involved women to try to calm her down/tell her everything is fine, while they are actively stopping her from moving
- the covering their faces as soon as they have her surrounded (and not before)
