That's what I told my friends, that if I was going to watch something political last night/today, I was going to have it be something positive. I've seen too many negative historic moments these last couple months, I needed a positive one.

Out of all people who could have broken Strom Thurmond's record, Senator Booker was amazing.

Yes, he was great. A very positive & encouraging discussion. Hope & creativity are most welcome right now. :)

Even if he was, he'd have to go a long way to catch up with the corrupt republicans. Dems get rid of their most corrupt.

You sure missed the sarcasm in my comment and also the fact that Dems actually police their own (i.e. Bob Menendez). In fact, most of what you wrote doesn't even make sense.

I’m so proud of Senator Booker! This is the energy we need at this moment. His speech was so powerful. Thanks for interviewing him.

Great job, Aaron! So glad that a young progressive from independent media seized this huge moment with the amazing Senator Booker.

YOU GO, AARON…as the above say, Senator Cory Booker made history today and YOU interviewed him with heartfelt questions! Proud of you, from a Boomer ☮️

Damn…the fact he did an interview after that! 👏👏 Amazing work to you both!

Simon's avatar

He did MSNBC just now as well. A force of nature!!!

The fact he’s still semi-coherent, much less 1000x more capable of critical thinking and articulation than the entire magat lot (combined 🤣), is truly amazing!! Good for him!! Good for America (and the world)!! Let’s remember Mr. Booker in this ongoing fight!! 💪💪 It’s going to be a Marathon…

He was more coherent after 25 hours than many of them are after about 25 seconds.

Cory Booker picked the best journalists to speak to after this historical night.
