I am so glad a black man beat Strom Thurmond’s record, mostly because it would piss of Thurmond so much.
Edit: Like Jesse Owens at Hitler’s Olympics.
And Thurmond’s record was for filibustering… the Civil Rights Act…
Gross.
This is the baseline standard we should be expecting in these trying times. Extenuating circumstances call for extenuating measures, and our representatives need to start showing up for the job in visible and historic ways just like this. Set the standard and hold the line. Fascists are not honest negotiators.
They need to be doing this when it counts, like before a Republican spending bill.

This guy: Hold my beer.
