30 minutes away from breaking the record. Senator #CoryBooker is still speaking about the importance of the US #Constitution & standing up for the #rights of all #people, especially those who are being targeted by a savage few with the #money & #power to do so.
And he has done it. Senator #CoryBooker has broken Strom Thurmond’s 1957 anti-civil rights filibuster.
“I am not doing this because of him, I am doing this in spite of him.”
“I’m not quite ready to wrap this up yet.”

Whoa, yesterday, #Trump illegally stripped #CollectiveBargaining rights from hundreds of thousands of #FederalWorkers in 18 different departments across multiple #FederalAgencies.
The admin stated that “Certain Federal unions have declared *#war* on President Trump’s agenda.”
Is he going to use #wartime powers against #union members now?

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Exempts Agencies with National Security Missions from Federal Collective Bargaining Requirements – The White House
PROTECTING OUR NATIONAL SECURITY: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order using authority granted by the Civil Service Reform Act ofThe White House
Academic in tone, The #DualState sketches a template of emerging #tyranny distilled from bloody & horrifying experience.
As Fraenkel explained it, a #lawless #dictatorship does not arise simply by snuffing out the ordinary #legal system of rules, procedures, & precedents. To the contrary, that system—which he called the “normative state”—remains in place while dictatorial power spreads across society. What happens, Fraenkel explained, is insidious.
…Today, we are witnessing the birth of a new #DualState. The #US has long had a normative state. That system was always imperfect. Our #criminal #justice system, for example, sweeps in far too many people, for far too little security in exchange. Even so, it is recognizably part of the normative state.
What the #Trump administration & its allies are trying to build now, however, is not.

#Trump suggests sending #UnitedStates #citizens to a prison in a foreign country known for #HumanRights violations without #DueProcess.
This is no longer a #ConstitutionalCrisis.
The #USA is an established #authoritarian #MafiaState.
Development on this report:
... “The US Institute for #Peace [#USIP] called the DC police on the #Musk team members [#DOGE] in an effort to stop them from trespassing because the institute has control of its own building & the land it sits on. But instead, the DC police allowed them to enter & kicked out the institute's officials.”
