@Lefty Love the #CoryBooker sign — that’s my Senator!
@Lefty Love the #CoryBooker sign — that’s my Senator!
#AlarmBells are going off in a sign that says "No! No! No! No!" and nothing else.
One sign says "#Impeach the #FelonInChief"
"This is a #MoralMoment. It's. not #Left or #Right, but Right or Wrong" — #CoryBooker
Someone with a #NationalParkService decal says "I Wish #Trump Would Pet a Bison" — very creative!
Then there's the #DumpTrump sign.
In the back there's "Free Books, Free Minds, Support #IMLS & Your Local #Library. …#DOGE #SHANKKK"
"Hands Off #NATO"
Cory Booker urges action in first event since historic speech: ‘This is a moment for America’ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/05/cory-booker-new-jersey-town-hall #Trumpadministration #DonaldTrump #CoryBooker #USpolitics #NewJersey #Democrats #USnews
@sidereal this such a perfect encapsulation of the Democrat party
Estimate in #Montclair/ #Bloomfield, #NJ was 5,000. #CoryBooker, one of our Senators, spoke, but my beloved and I had already left because we were *freezing*! (Pix are from the local Dem activist group’s FB page.) #NJ11thForChange
Dax wants to know what you're doing for today's #HandsOff march? He reminds of #CoryBooker 's words, "The power of the people is greater than the people in power." Yup! But only if we exercise it!!!

"‘Liberation Day’ may have belonged to Trump, but Wisconsin voters offered their own declaration of independence on Wednesday – is it a sign of what’s to come?"

"The momentum is shifting. Wisconsin was a decisive win. Gaps in Florida’s US House districts are narrowing. And Democratic Senator Cory Booker just shattered segregationist Strom Thurmond’s record in congress with a 25-hour protest speech – a symbolic moment, but one that suggests renewed energy on the left."

"Authoritarians want us to feel hopeless and helpless. It’s up to us to show them that we will not submit quietly and that we believe in struggle and collective action. Like Sen. Booker, each one of us can do something, using the spaces and means we have, to meet this moment with the same resilient and resolute spirit he showed on the Senate floor."

Don‘t try to do a 25h #corybooker speaking marathon, urologists advise

Cory Booker has signed every funding bill for Israel's genocide, and is co-author of the bill criminalizing anyone protesting the genocide.
Booker is not a good man, and he will never 'save' American democracy.

Oh no. Lol. Possibly the real reason for the stunt 25 hour filibuster stunt that didn't disrupt ANY trump legislation? He was trying to get out of this antitrust hearing after taking Big Tech $$.

I find Senator #CoryBooker and his actions uplifting. It’s important to find #joy in this moment as well, so I will share some personal news.
My son was accepted to five of the six colleges he applied to and has decided to go to #Rutgers University - New Brunswick in #NewJersey! The hub and I couldn’t be prouder of him.
This pic is from a Bar Mitzvah we went to in February.
A new #WillBunch piece in the #Inquirer puts into eloquent prose why those numbers cited in #CoryBooker’s press release matter and how it will motivate voters and electeds alike. Must-read via this gift link courtesy of my Inky sub. #Democracy #GoodTrouble #USpol
Booker’s message was powerful and simple: Just do something. Now it’s your turn
A senator's record-breaking speech showed #Democrats, and America, that silence is not an option in the #Trump era
