    He said for us to go out and cause some good trouble. Necessary trouble to redeem the soul of our nation. I want you to redeem the dream. Let’s be bold in America, not demean and degrade Americans. Not divide us against each other. […] This is a moral moment. It’s not left or right, it’s right or wrong. Let’s get in good trouble. My friends, Madame President, I yield the floor.

    Don’t let anyone, anyone, pretend that this was business as usual. Senator Booker came out and gave people what they’ve been asking for - a call to action. This isn’t empty democrat promises, this isn’t “both sides” bullshit. This was a United States Senator telling the public that shit has hit the fan, and that politics isn’t enough anymore.

    Fuck the apathy. Fuck the doomerism. This wasn’t business as usual, this won’t be business as usual. Listen to what the man had to say. Get together. Trouble is coming whether we like it or not. May as well make it good trouble.
