Cory Booker at the moment filibustering at the senate as a protest against the whole trump administration . He is speaking for as long as he is physically able too, as stated by him in the CSPAN clip, https://www.c-span.org/clip/us-senate/sen-cory-booker-d-nj-starts-speaking-in-senate-for-as-long-as-i-am-physically-able/5158775

Here is an article that states why he is on the senate floor if you need clarification https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/31/politics/booker-senate-floor-speech-trump-protest/index.html

    Hopefully messing with the apathy in the US. The mainstream media is talking about it. And even though it isn’t a filibuster. Strom Thurmond filibustered bs rhetoric against civil rights in the 50’s for a little over 24 hours and people are talking about that so he is kind of making some history. Am basically hoping he is causing more momentum. The system needs fucking changing but we need to come together for that to happen.
