So to be clear

  • Democrats should do something
  • But not this
  • Also he's basically a nazi himself

It's amazing the well organized nazi party wins all the time

If only he would've had a heart attack during his pathetic show

Booker is a bloodthirsty murderer. I feel sick when I see liberals praising his pointless grandstanding. He's been a sneering Zionist scumbag his whole career.

Liberals are trying to play some kind of critical support angle with their favorite Democrats, but what they're trying (and failing) to criticize is literal genocide. There is no "you gotta hand it to them." They're demons in the flesh. They're irredeemable. No amount of liberal hand-wringing and "how dare you" will revive Palestinian women and children.

Liberals. Please demand something better than the bare minimum. The bare minimum here is not committing genocide.

Can't wait for libs in 2028 to start demanding votes for Booker, Josh Shapiro, or other Zionists, and we have to have this argument all over again.

Can't wait for them to drop "but that was four years ago!" as if the worst crime people can do to one another just washes away in the time it takes to get a bachelor's degree.

This is why I didn't vote for Harris. You can't gaslight me into believing you care about the rights of marginalized groups of people, the environment, democracy, housing, healthcare, and freedom, while you are openly supporting fascism, apartheid and genocide with my taxes.

Inconvenient truth downvoters are weapons-grade liberalism.

When a Democrat admits to "mistakes" in their past, it's always something like advocating for the mass-murder of brown children, and you can rest assured that they will not miss the next chance to advocate for the same thing again.

Edit: Oh, actually, he devoted part of this rant to being pro-genocide. Nevermind, as usual, Dems are even worse than you can imagine.

Never forget when Corey Booker fillibusterred for 1.5 years since October 2023.

There we go

We need a nickname for him.

How about 'Bloody Hands' Booker?

Gory Booker

I think thisbis from 2023? Wonder if he stills feels that way.

Cory Booker voted against Bernie's resolution to stop sending 2.000 pound bombs Israel yesterday. So the answer is a resounding 'yes'.

Would be nice if we saw that during his speech maybe someone with some mild editing skills can do it.

[–] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He declared his fealty to Israel and his support for the genocide during his “filibuster.”

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 6 points 1 day ago

Wow well that settles it

[–] Kumikommunism@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He literally said as much in his recent publicity stunt. Don't really need to wonder.
