Cory

Lisa Richards, a 61-year-old voter who drove 230 miles from San Diego, praised New Jersey Senator Cory Booker's recent 25-hour speech on the US Senate floor opposing Trump's policies.

“We’re padding a 5% to 10% contingency for what we’re calling ‘market volatility’ into the budget,” said Cory Singer, a general contractor working on 10 rebuild projects in Pacific Palisades, including the first home under construction there since fire tore through the neighborhood.

Sure, Cory Booker made Senate history last week with a new record for how long any American senator had stood on the chamber’s floor and spoken, clocking in at 25 hours and 5 minutes—a rare sign of life in the chamber.

New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker finally gave voters the kind of protest they’ve been pleading for ever since Donald Trump became president for the second time.

“The name of the game is attention. Trump and Musk are very good at it,” Democratic strategist Mike Nellis said on X. “Democrats have struggled to take these kinds of risks to our own peril—but Cory is paving the way forward.”
