Happening today.

It is time to heed the words of the man I began this whole thing with: John Lewis. I beg folks to take his example of his early days where he made himself determined to show his love for his country at a time the country didn’t love him. To love this country so much, to be such a patriot that he endured beatings savagely on the Edmund Pettus bridge, at lunch counters, on Freedom Rides, he said he had to do something. He would not normalize a moment like this. He would not just go along with business as usual. He wouldn’t know how to solve it but there’s one thing that he would do that I hope we all can do, that I think I did a little bit of tonight. He said for us to go out and cause some good trouble. Necessary trouble to redeem the soul of our nation. I want you to redeem the dream. Let’s be bold in America, not demean and degrade Americans. Not divide us against each other. […] This is a moral moment. It’s not left or right, it’s right or wrong. Let’s get in good trouble.

Senator Cory Booker, April 1, 2025.
