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.

Cory Booker

What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard. I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment.

It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered. It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together.

So proud of what you did! I have organized my third GOP district office protest, set for Friday. The weather outlook is not good but I figure if you can stand and talk for 25 hours +, we Texans can stand in the rain protesting for 25 minutes +.

When the Democratic party taxes the rich, then I'll give it props. The Dems lost us civil and reproductive rights while taking oligarchy/corpocracy donations obliging them to pass legislation further enriching their wealthy donors to the detriment of the unwealthy electorate. tinyurl.com/3xy2d5k7

Thank you for listening to the people and using your position to not only to make their voices heard but to make sure EVERYONE heard them. Thank you for doing something.

With incredible respect of what you did, the fight's not over. Less than an hour after you yielded the floor, democrats are providing unanimous consent to the self proclaimed king's nominees.

Your speech will inspire scholars and students and TRUE patriots for years to come. I’m hoping that your speech was the turning point of our country back to sanity. thank you. Thank you for truly representing “We the People” and being brave enough to say the things that needed to be said.

This is the kind of show of strong will and determination the people needed from democratic leadership. If I’m honest, though, my only wish is they you had done it when there was something consequential up for vote. This was important, but largely symbolic.

Thank you Senator Booker. You injected the energy, and dare I say hope, into those on the side of good and justice who hunger and thirst for a leader. Please keep hammering the message as our standard bearer.

Your record set that record straight. 👏🖖🎤 I'll admit, though...I was a little disappointed that you didn't drop the mic after that epic address. You sure earned it!

Thank you, Sen. Booker! We listened while getting ready for school (after I listened through the night.) My 3rd Grader asked “is he still going?”when I passed her in the hallway at school. She was so excited to hear you made history when she got home from soccer!

Senator, thank you for your service and dedication. Thank you for using your voice to amplify those who normally wouldn’t be heard. Thank you for the hope you shared and your honest reflection on how we can - and must - do better to ensure that ALL of us are provided for. WE THE PEOPLE

Listening all day, I held it together until the story about John Lewis helping the Bookers buy their home in NJ. From there on out, my eyes leaked, my heart hurt, and my nose was a snot factory. I cried, I cheered, I recommited to this fight. See you in the streets, April 5th and beyond. 💙 Sen. B.

I get 'cha. That was exactly the time I was expecting that he...any human...would be getting a bit loopy. But he kept saying things that gave me hope that there were people that were like me, whether I knew them or not. Kept thinking there should be a word for neighbor, even across the world. 💙

You sir, were the man for this moment. All the way. Who will be the man (or woman) for the next moment? The required moment. "He (or she) who acts to save his (or her) country from tyranny, domestic terrorism, Project 2025, and radical right wing criminals, violates no laws.”

It was exceptional to watch you Senator. I’m one of the thousands of messages on your phone too broken up to say much. But thank you. I hope the dam will break now.

Thank you for giving us your all! It was an inspiring 25 hours! Please take care of yourself now. Please drink a lot of water and electrolytes. Take a benzo too because it might be hard to settle down into your usual sleep cycle rhythm.

📌 You absolutely rose to the moment, Senator! I felt heard, that the Democrats understand the critical importance of the moment we’re in, & that they’re ready to fight. I can’t thank you enough! THANK YOU!!!! 💙✊ 💙

Thank you, Senator Booker, for teaching my students how to make some good trouble. The youth are paying attention and they are inspired by you and your colleagues who speak truth to power. Get some rest, the fight has just begun.

Without getting too religious, Senator, I think you may have felt not only the Holy Spirit, but the spirits of your fellow countrymen and colleagues, both past and present, more strongly than ever in your heart these last 25 hours. God bless you. And thank you.

I admire what you are saying and what you've done. If you can speak up for Palestinians, you will win over the Democratic party. It's possible to be pro-Jewish and Palestinian, but anti-genocide. It's not always popular, but it's not left or right. It's right or wrong.

@aabutler.bsky.social

Keep rising to meet the moment. We need more filibusters—every week, in both chambers! They want to call it obstructionist? LET THEM. We are not going to walk quietly and with ducked tails into authoritarianism, and they need to hear it, know it, and act accordingly!

@duanebw.bsky.social

What is Step 2? More speeches? Is there a plan to obstruct GOP from shoving Trump's insanity down our throats? Talk is not enough. It's time for action. Why was McConnell able to curtail Obama's agenda with 40 votes, but Dems are helpless with 47?

duanebw.bsky.social
@duanebw.bsky.social

Apparently, your 25-hour speech was pointless grandstanding. 10 minutes later, not one Democrat objected to unanimous consent of the Matt Whittaker appointment. All talk. No action. Welcome to the Democratic submission to Tyranny. Including today's hero, Cory Booker.

We The People stood on the stump but you, like a 1500 meter Olympian, nailed every turn and managed exhaustion and even rage. You’re a cool dude man. Thank you Cory, that was a meaningful record, in better hands, a pendulum swing event. We The People are together in the American Values we unite to.

Thank you Senator Booker. You are an inspiration. Everyone needs to continue the message in Congress and across the country! We do have some dynamic leaders in Congress and we do have some that need to step aside for young energy

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of our country. Stand up, speak out. United we succeed! Divided is what trump/musk/vance/putin want so they can destroy all that we love and veterans fought for in past wars. Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me ❤️ @5calls.org

@thegreygoose.bsky.social

Cory you are a men among men! Thank you for working for us! Please, please, please, be looking into Trump carrying out Putin’s statement of ‘the U.S. will fall from the inside’. Everything he does is to hurt us, and for his gain… it seems Putin is right, which makes me think this his doing. 1/2

THE GREY GOOSE 🪿
@thegreygoose.bsky.social

We can get a lot more people on board to rally around keeping America out of Putin’s hands, even far right Republicans in the Senate, if we are all fighting that together. This is Putin’s war on the U.S., it’s not bombs, it’s someone to carry out his every command and wish.

Yes because our elected democrats including the inept Biden administration did nothing to stop the coup that started on Jan 6th , 2021 .. Trump assumed the Presidency because of you pussy’s
