Cory Booker is speaking

Streaming on YouTube. The senator from New Jersey has been going for more than sixteen hours.

*

Now it’s more than twenty hours.

*

And he ended after twenty-five hours and a few minutes.

In the beginning: “These are not normal times in our nation, and they should not be treated as such in the United States Senate.”

[Chuck Schumer needs to acknowledge that it’s time for new Senate leadership. Like Cory Booker, perhaps?]
