He's not filibustering. He's grandstanding.

Because it is.

Wow, Booker's grandstanding is really having an effect!

Yup. Useless theatrics are all the democratic party is capable of these days.

This technically isn't a filibuster. He's not blocking any legislation or appointments. He's just talking, and we know how far talking gets us.

Blake puts this face on when his sciatica acts up. He's actually very pleasant on his good days. Ask him about his Disney spoon collection, he'll warm right up.

Are you opposing legislation by holding the floor and not allowing it to get introduced?

Booker isn't either. Again, in case you missed it:

"Booker’s speech is not a filibuster because it is not blocking legislation or a nomination."

Booker is grandstanding. Talking. Talking gets us nowhere. Is he DOING anything? No. The entire party is rudderless, weak, and borderline complicit. ACTUALLY complicit in the cases of Schumer and Fetterman and Durbin, to name a few.

But your never really sure who is in which group

It's pretty easy to determine which group our representatives are in.

It is at least making it obvious which of our government institutions are bootlicking cowards.

Just shows how cowardly the Democrats are now. Most of them were afraid to sign a piece of paper that means literally nothing.

See? You don't even truly believe they'll happen. But hey, you do you
