It’s nice to see the senate opposition functioning.

Edit: 18 hours of holding the senate floor, giving voice to the american people. Lots of tears as american suffering is read out loud for the congressional record. Testiment from Americans across the country. This is the voice of the people. Please click the link, share and watch. The media needs to know we care about the opposition more than we care about trump rambling on a plane about fort knox.

        Billionaires, US politics is largely fanfare with niche outliers like Bernie. There’s a reason the US has largely been the exact same imperialist state feeding the billionaires for almost 50 years now. Democrats had 100% control of Senate, House, and Executive branch in 2022 and what did they do to prevent what is unfolding today?

        Largely fanfare with a focus on imperialist foreign affairs in Gaza.

        Anyone who’s been paying attention to the news for more than 3 administrations can tell you this is the reality of our system and nothing will change until it crashes and is rebuilt.

          Great history lesson. The dems did not have a super majority in the senate so here we are. There was no progress because the filibuster. Thank god for that filibuster cause we need it now. You need to get 70% of americans to agree with you if you want to make change. It’s a high bar to set and billionaires sure are influencial in the conversations, and the elections. We should change that but 70% of people can’t agree on that either. You think a new government will fix that or do we need to fix the broken people? Like why is it that 70% of ameicans can’t agree on taxing people richer than them or keeping billionaires out of politics in a meaningful manner?

          I’ve been playing attention for the past 6 administrations. I cared about Gaza while you were playing in the sandbox. You guys just found out about Gaza on Tic Tok, and handed trump a presidency over it because you can’t even seperate iranian propaganda from genuine compassion.

            There was no progress because the filibuster.

            When it’s Democrats in control this is the excuse.

            When it’s Republicans in control they do as they please illegal or not.

            Why do you think this is? Republicans have already burned through 80% of Project 2025 without a filibuster being started, why are they able to accomplish so many of their goals, the Democrats however almost none.

            Their AIPAC and Insurance provider paychecks come with stipulations.

            You say you’re empathetic towards Gaza yet you’re rooting for a politician who’s accepted 3/4 million dollars directly from Israel.

              Like its so ironic because theres a man on the senate floor crying, saying exactly what you’re saying. There’s a problem in the congress they are derelicting their duty. He’s saying that right now. They know they fucked up. Listen in or find a new post to comment on. I don’t want to read you virtue signaling while someones saying it on the senate floor and you refuse to even listen or support it in spirit. Like this is truly funny dude. Walking contradiction here. Theres something beautiful happening in congress and it’s speaking to your very thoughts and you just wanna ignore it because it might make your opinion incorrect. Good luck.

              Hey dude you’re talking on a post about a filibuster thats taking up the senate floor for 25 straight hours and its still going. Project 2025 was completed by executive order not at a legislative level yet.

              I also do not like how the DNC has handled the last 4 elections. I am not a fan of Kamala at all but would have loved to have her over this. I don’t inject Gaza into every conversation, but that does not mean i do not care and want to end military funding for isreal. I want USAID to get back to gaza.

              It’s not relevant to the topic of this post. Which contradicts half of your post right here. So like watch the filibuster and discuss it or please, find somewhere else to virtue signal. Let Booker virtue signal, he’s cookin and im vibing and you realling killing that right now man? whats wrong with you?
