Summary
Senator Cory Booker’s speech on TikTok live surpassed 350 million likes as he stood for over 25 hours speaking in the Senate chamber.
Booker broke Strom Thurmond’s record for the longest Senate speech, which lasted 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957 to block civil rights legislation.
I kinda feel like you missed the point.
The takeaway i got from somebody not preventing the fascist coup in a meaningful way was that some dems want to do something but are too stupid or complicit to have a material impact on the changes happening.
I suppose his speech could be seen as a shot across the bow of DNC leadership, but I’m not really that optimistic. Even if that’s what it is, waaay too little and waaay too late.
