Cory Booker sets a record with marathon Senate speech. Will it rally anti-Trump resistance? New Jersey Democratic Sen. Cory Booker held the Senate floor with a speech that lasted more than 25 hours and broke the record set by Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, 68 years ago.

The spirit of John Lewis lives on: “Booker said he was ultimately calling on all Americans to respond not just with resistance to Trump’s actions but with kindness and generosity for those in their communities.”
apnews.com/article/cory...

Booker on Strom Thurmond: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here in spite of his speech. I'm here because as poweful as he was, the people were more powerful."

"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 🔥

Thank you Senator Booker for embodying the spirit of John Lewis today, speaking truth to power with love, and erasing Storm Thurmond and all he represents from the record books. You have inspired a nation and now it is on all of us to act with the moral courage to meet this moment. With gratitude 🙏🏽

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 @booker.senate.gov!

That’s the post.

A timely and urgent reminder to keep embracing the joy and light in our lives in a time of darkness: “They are waging a war on living. The more fully you live, the harder their job will be.”
