CALL TO ACTIVISM
@CalltoActivism

JUST NOW: Cory Booker's marathon speech is nearing its sixth hour. His voice is cracking.

"Today into tomorrow, I'm going to stand as long as I can and read stories like this because you're seen and you're heard."

..........................

I have heard that Democrats are spinless. 🤔
Bravo, Sir.


Isn't there a word for this tactic ... Oh yeah!  Filibuster.  That's what it's called.  I thought this tactic was something that absolutely had to be abolished because it was racist.  Isn't Cory black? 

And the bravery of someone willing to work till MIDNIGHT!!!  OMG!!!

And what exactly did this accomplish?

Trump is still president. DOGE is still going strong.

And America is on its way to being great again!

So FU

Absolutely pointless nonsense.  Cory talked to himself for hours.  Nothing accomplished.  And that idiot Brooklyn Dad says "this is what we need."

Was anyone there to listen or was he talking to himself?

If I understand this perspective on Booker's stunt correctly, https://conservativecave.com/cave/index.php?topic=136129.0 , the answer may be "No", plus or minus a camera crew.

I dont think he's doing anything but talking. I don't believe there is a bill on the floor for him to filibuster...

... its just a Democrat stunt.

With the camera crew's OT paid by US taxpayers.

However, even CNN is hilariously pointing out that Booker's speech is not a filibuster by any means and is actually just an annoying waste of time for everybody involved.

"The speech is not a filibuster because Booker is not blocking legislation or a nomination," they write. "The Democratic senator’s speech will keep the Senate floor open – and floor staff working as well US Capitol police members detailed to the chamber – for as long as he continues speaking, but lawmakers had concluded voting on Monday before he began his remarks."

Even CNN admitted that his stunt was just that, and cost taxpayers $$ in the form of staff and Capitol Police OT.

So more homo sex on the senate floor?  BTW "disrupting shit" used to be called "fudge packing" or "dirt poking."  But you be you DUmbass Dirt Poker.

Thanks for posting that, as I had also read that it was basically Booker and Chris Murphy as the only Senators in attendance.

Typical worthless Democrat party stunt. An a not-so cunning one either.

LOL!!

I just got to where I could read this.  I had no idea when I posted that that he wasn't doing anything but talking.  I thought he was using the filibuster to stop something from happening.

This is even better!   :rotf:

     I will give the DUmmies one thing: most people lose interest after watching, like, 10 minutes of porn. These idiots stay aroused for HOURS of their porn.

So he stayed awake for 25+ hours just to talk his ass off. Big fracking deal. There are any number of people in the military that have worked for 24-maybe as long as a week for sure while awake and your clown's thing Booker has done something amazing. Yeah, you people are terminally stupid.

You have to admit that Booker emitted an impressive volume of methane, :-) .
