Cory Booker at the moment filibustering at the senate as a protest against the whole trump administration . He is speaking for as long as he is physically able too, as stated by him in the CSPAN clip, https://www.c-span.org/clip/us-senate/sen-cory-booker-d-nj-starts-speaking-in-senate-for-as-long-as-i-am-physically-able/5158775
Here is an article that states why he is on the senate floor if you need clarification https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/31/politics/booker-senate-floor-speech-trump-protest/index.html
Does the Trump administration need the senate? Seems they’re doing whatever they want regardless of any checks or balances, so who is this actually disrupting?
Get outta here with that negativity. It’s the first sign of life from Senate Democrats, and taking a moral stance against Trump is still important. We need more of this, not less.
They’re doing plenty more than this, but they’re not self-promoting enough for people to notice. Democrats voted and spoke out against Trump’s cabinet nominations, forced a 15-day vote against Trump’s executive order, confirmed Biden’s pending judicial appointments when Republican attendance is low, and are the ones bringing these cases to the courts.
This is to obstruct fast-tracked appointments by Trump according to C-SPAN. Other than that, you’re right.
The Democrats forced a 15-day vote against Trump’s emergency executive order, and Republicans redefined the entire congressional calendar as a single day, just to avoid holding the vote.
Every last Republican in Congress is complicit.
