In the midst of so much tragedy being perpetrated by Donald Trump and his Cabinet Officers, we have a great national hero in New Jersey Democratic Senator Cory Booker!
Booker just broke the personal filibuster record of then Democratic, later Republican, Senator Strom Thurmond of South Carolina in 1957.
Thurmond was railing against civil rights legislation, specifically the Civil Rights Act of that year, a despicable action by a well known white supremacist in the early Civil Rights Era.
Booker was condemning the multitude of horrors being perpetrated by the most dangerous and lawless President America has ever witnessed, a totally honorable action!
The nightmare of Donald Trump was laid out over about 25 hours nonstop by Booker, working to rally his Democratic Party and non MAGA Republicans and Independents, to lead the charge against the criminal activities being perpetrated in just ten weeks of the Trump second term Presidency!
Booker will be remembered for this, and other Democrats need to pick up the mantle and conduct similar filibusters to work to prevent the worst aspects of future legislation and actions during the next months and years.
Basically, every Democrat in the Senate should commit himself or herself to similiar tactics, and they will be as much appreciated and admired as Senator Booker is right now, although he has always been a decent, caring Senator since 2013!
