So nice to see a face I don't need to change the channel from. We definitely need Mr. Smith and Mr. Booker to 'go' to Washington. I think we need to stop "bashing" Democrat Party and concentrate on what needs to be emphasized: DEMOCRACY AND DUE PROCESS OF LAW. It was horrifying enough to see men chained and shoved face down on public tv [which should give us some dreadful idea off what's done away from the camera], but we now know there was a "administrative error"!!! of a wrong person being deported and the all powerful US can't find a way to bring him out. This is NOT the America anyone voted for [I hope].
No, Senator Booker accomplished nothing except break Senator Thurman's record. Virginia's Senator Kaine (D), however, managed to get enough Republicans together for this:
"Senate passes measure to revoke new Canada tariffs as four Republicans break with Trump"
Although a particular bill wasn't involved, Senator Cory Booker at least let others know that he and many of his constituents are extremely concerned about what Trump and Musk have been doing to destroy our democracy, due process of law, the Constitution, the parts of our federal government that most of us find important. Congress needs to come together and kick the bum/s into prison.
Great article, Meredith. Right on, Senator Booker.

Senator Booker has the smarts, the passion and the patriotism to lead . Go Senator Booker!
At least Senator Booker did something. That's more than you can say for Schumer and many of his cowering co-workers.

Did Senator Kaine receive the lavish media praise that Senator Booker did?

Sen. Booker speaks for all of us who believe our Republic is NOT for sale. Keep up the fight. Our Democracy is what happens next.
