Cory Booker spoke for 25 hours and barely mentioned Gaza. That’s no surprise

#US politicians and the media are focused on our domestic crisis. But we cannot close our eyes to the outside world

from #TheGuardian #Guardian

Tue 8 Apr 2025 08.00 EDT

"...hours into his 25-hour speech on the Senate floor, the #Democrat #CoryBooker uttered the word “Gaza”. He was not talking about the war. He stepped nowhere near the 50,000 Palestinians killed by the Israeli armed forces since 8 October 2023, or the US’s military and political support of the genocide.

Rather, #Booker was searching for a particularly ludicrous lie... “There are lies about USAID, ... like 5 million condoms going to Gaza or something outrageous,” he said. Considering the other outrageous things #Trump has said about #Gaza – such as his plan to “clean out” the strip to make room for luxury resorts – the remark felt trivializing."

⬆️ >> Yes! There's always that danger in a society so openly #racist. I am a PoC myself. That's why I linked to #CivicSolidarity — #Cops kept #protesters safe! #BlackMastodon

This is a #MoralMoment — #CoryBooker

We need a broad coalition with civic solidarity, not just solidarity within racial or other groups targeted by haters.

If #Trump and #Musk have riled up SO MANY AMERICANS in just the first 100 days, they've #AwakenedASleepingGiant ✊

#AlarmBells are going off in a sign that says "No! No! No! No!" and nothing else.

One sign says "#Impeach the #FelonInChief"

"This is a #MoralMoment. It's. not #Left or #Right, but Right or Wrong" — #CoryBooker

Someone with a #NationalParkService decal says "I Wish #Trump Would Pet a Bison" — very creative!

Then there's the #DumpTrump sign.

In the back there's "Free Books, Free Minds, Support #IMLS & Your Local #Library. …#DOGE #SHANKKK"

"Hands Off #NATO"

"The momentum is shifting. Wisconsin was a decisive win. Gaps in Florida’s US House districts are narrowing. And Democratic Senator Cory Booker just shattered segregationist Strom Thurmond’s record in congress with a 25-hour protest speech – a symbolic moment, but one that suggests renewed energy on the left."

"Authoritarians want us to feel hopeless and helpless. It’s up to us to show them that we will not submit quietly and that we believe in struggle and collective action. Like Sen. Booker, each one of us can do something, using the spaces and means we have, to meet this moment with the same resilient and resolute spirit he showed on the Senate floor."
