He spoke in some detail about friends he has made across the aisle. And he also spoke about bills that they’d worked on together. He joked that he invited Ted Cruz to lunch but it was hard to find a restaurant because Booker is vegan and Cruz is from Texas.
Was reading the interview with Sen. Chris Murphy in New York magazine where he mentions needing this approach. Allowing billionaires to control elections and usher in an era where one group of people has permanent control of government is not a good plan. Betraying allies, aligning with enemies to allow a few wealthy oligarchs to profit is a bad idea. Destroying vital US institutions is very bad.
I saw a lot more at the end of the day after he broke the record.

I love it... There are more of you , that is, American citizens , than there are of him. People , of whatever nationality, or cultural background are all alike, in one particular way. People get fed up. Everybody has a point of civic rebellion, and when that becomes the language of the people, things happen. Trump may look like he's moving fast, and somewhat furiously, but he is running on fumes. He is running on ideaology and reality always rises up and dongs ideaology on it''s pointy head .. History tells us this is what , without exception, occurs..

)Nobody is going to be angrier than the MAGA folks when the windfall not only does not happen, but they are not hearing the normal jingling of coins in the pocket, as well. Not only not positive, but an actual negative reading, which anyone can see is approaching, at warp speed, if I might venture an educated guess. There is no anger like that of folks betrayed and made idiots of. They will not like it, not only because it's happening, but because they thought it would not happen to them. They thought he was on their side, turns out, he's on only one side, and it isn't theirs..Overall, Trump has slipped to a 43% approval rating - with an even lesser 38% approving of how he is dealing with trade negotiations. (What "negotiations" would they be?
A whopping 76% said using the Signal app to discuss military plans was not appropriate, including 56% of Republicans.

Is that similar to Canadian law that requires social media to pay for Canadian content that social media republishes? Social media pretends that by demanding fair payment, the government is censoring news. Not so.Well, our current Aussie Prime Minister is holding strong.
Ahead of United States President Donald Trump's expected release of more trade tariffs on Thursday [Wednesday in the northern hemisphere], a new US report has taken aim at Australian meat, apples, pears and pharmaceuticals.
It also mentions Australia's mandatory media bargaining code that requires technology platforms to pay local media organisations for content, and requirements on streaming services to feature Australian content.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said the news bargaining code, pharmaceuticals, and biosecurity measures on the import of meat and fruit in particular were not up for negotiation.
"Those issues are not up for negotiation from the Australian government," he told reporters on Tuesday.
"We will defend Australia's interests. The idea that we would weaken biosecurity laws is like cutting off your nose to spite your face."
US reveals grievances with Australia ahead of Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffs
US President Donald Trump is preparing to announce an array of tariffs on 2 April, which he is promoting as 'Liberation Day' for America.
big news to me that the US has grievances about AUS- you are pretty far away- I think it is Elon's grievance with AUS(!) Most of us are not having bad dreams about the mandatory media bargaining code. the only AUS product I recall ever buying was wine- which was good and inexpensive, though I have not bought wine in years and I guess now I could not afford it.Well, our current Aussie Prime Minister is holding strong.

I've only read 2 pages here, and this is one of multiple posts by you, where you have referenced "Republicans" who enjoy taunting others. Do you really believe all republicans follow that line of thinking?
I really believe all Republicans follow that line of thinking.. if they didn't , wouldn't they speak out , condemning those actions?? Since they don't , one is left no choice but to believe they do , indeed, follow that line of thinking..
Trump has a grievance against Australia. He tried to buy ,and run, a casino in Sydney way back in 2000 or somewhere, but the NSW police checked him out, like they do anyone wanting to open a business that consists of gambling, and found that Trump was tightly associated with THE MOB of gangsters, and with the Chinese triad folks, so the police decided he was an 'unfit person' to run a casino in Australia. SO there was no deal.
The first order of business for Democrats is ensuring that democracy survives Donald Trump, Elon and their associates so that there IS an election in 2026 and 2028.
