“What makes Ed happy” scene/speech from season 1 of “our flag means death”

Top panel:
Ed says: “These past tew hours... have been... the most fun I've had in ages, years.
Maybe ever.”
Stede’s face has screenshot on top of it saying “Donald Trump Missing: Rumors Explode on Social Media”

Bottom panel: Ed looking lovingly at Stede with same screenshot over his face, with text at the bottom, Ed saying “So, uh, I reckon what makes me happy... is... you.”

The MAGA movement will splinter and Vance will lead fragments of it. Congress won't worry about his primary attacks and they'll reassert themselves. The midterms are too far from now for Republicans to coast on sympathy votes. Life will improve in immediately.

If Donald Trump d**s and Vance becomes president there's no way this will continue. The same Project 2025 ghouls will still be in power but in the face of President Vance's demands every Dem governor and senator will rediscover their missing spine. It'll be "Come here and make me, bitch" nationwide

It’s weird* that the president can just decide to put a huge tax on American businesses without congress even being a little bit involved.

* very unconstitutional

Susan Crawford, a Dane County judge, defeated Brad Schimel, a Waukesha County judge and former Republican attorney general who embraced the president.

Democrats saw Crawford’s victory as a sign that they can flip Congress in the midterm elections and make gains in the Senate. wapo.st/4j7JERY

SCHUMER: Would the senator yield for a question?

BOOKER: Chuck Schumer, it's the only time in my life I can tell you no

SCHUMER: I just want to tell you, do you know you have just broken the record? Do you know how proud America is of you?

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

Cory Booker is mostly putting a lie to the notion there was nothing more that Democratic lawmakers could do.

I just tuned into the Booker live feed and after 22 hours he's speaking rapidly, passionately, furiously, and completely coherently.

By the way, last week, in impromptu remarks, Trump could not remember the word "criminal" and had to say "people of crime."

Y'all Senator Cory Booker is going to beat Senator Strom Thurmond's record tonight. Thurmond stood in the way of progress. Booker is standing for progress. This is powerful.

I LOVE how Cory Booker introduces the next Democratic Senator to ask a question by telling a great story about that Senator and how hard they do their job.

Democrats have been looking for a way to energize their frustrated base since losing all three branches of government in the November 2024 election.

Senator Cory Booker may have found a way.

What to Know About Cory Booker Marathon Anti-Trump Speech

First off, it's not a filibuster. But Booker speech has lasted over 20 hours, and is the most dramatic challenge to Trump’s agenda in months

Cory Booker, a Black Democratic Senator from Jersey, beating racist Strom Thurmond's record for longest filibuster would be something special.
