Description

Senator Cory Booker gave a fiery floor speech defending the Constitution, calling out authoritarianism, and demanding that Democrats find their backbone. But as Roland Martin and the panel make clear, words aren’t enough. While Republicans run scorched-earth campaigns to jam through power grabs and unqualified nominees, Democrats give speeches and call colleagues “honorable.” If they won’t fight, they don’t deserve to lead. It’s time to shut it all down. 🔥 “It’s time for Democrats to have a backbone. It’s time for us to fight.” — Cory Booker 🔥 “If we don’t stand as Democrats, we deserve to lose.” 🔥 “We’re at tea and they’re at a mud fight.” 🔥 “I don’t want to hear speeches. I want to see action.” — Roland 🔥 “You literally have to go scorched earth — because that’s what they’re doing.” #ScorchedEarthNow #CoryBooker #Democrats #FightBack #RolandMartinUnfiltered #BlackStarNetwork Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjXB7nX8bL2U2sje8d212Yw/join Support #RolandMartinUnfiltered and #BlackStarNetwork 👉🏾 Use Cash App by visiting Stripe https://buy.stripe.com/7sI3ccgYyfSQ8y45kl 👉🏾 PayPal ☛ https://www.paypal.me/rmartinunfiltered Venmo ☛https://venmo.com/rmunfiltered Zelle ☛ [email protected] Annual or monthly recurring #BringTheFunk Fan Club membership via paypal ☛ https://rolandsmartin.com/rmu-paypal/ Download the #BlackStarNetwork app on iOS, AppleTV, Android, Android TV, Roku, FireTV, SamsungTV and XBox 👉🏾 http://www.blackstarnetwork.com #RolandMartinUnfiltered and the #BlackStarNetwork are news reporting platforms covered under Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

Curious, Senator Cory Booker was the only Democrat in the upper house to vote alongside Republicans in favor of Kushner for ambassador to France. Is that pushing back?

You are absolutely correct about shutting it down. The Democrats have to shut it down if if the Republicans can act like that then so kind Democrats bring it on
