Y’all. For those who aren’t aware. Jeff Merkley, my Oregon senator, has been holding the Senate floor for 18 hours to protest the dictator (like Booker did).
Dude is 69 years old. He looks super tired, but he’s still going.
I never share YouTube links. I’m sorry for that. But in this case, it’s worth a click (in a private browser).
This is historical. Go, Jeff! ✊🏻

@markwyner You can change the domain name to invidio.us as in making it https://invidio.us/watch?v=ymDt1XecYfI
Which will allow people to choose where to watch the video.
@blenderdumbass nice. I actually didn’t know Invidious worked with live streams. I do use it for video.
@markwyner some support livestreams. If it doesn't work, you can try MPV, VLC ( new updated versions ) or something like FreeTube that tends to release updates ASAP as YouTube breaks things.
That YouTube video was live-streamed three or four days ago. Is he still at it now on the 25th?
@markwyner
Thank you for the heads-up.

@markwyner Guessing Democrat? And when the history books tell of these times, he'll be one shown to have had a spine.
@CStamp he is. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden are our senators. They’re both prime examples of what politicians should look like.
@markwyner Is that Jack Smith sitting near him? It can’t be. But that guy sure resembles Jack Smith.
@SharonCrockett 😂 that was actually my first thought when I opened the stream.
Senator Mark Kelly of AZ just asked him to yield for a question. He’s bringing to light the illegal use of military against US citizens. Fuck yeah!
Senators doing their jobs. Democrats need to take notes. No compliance. No subservience. No boot licking.
Instead, hold the floor. Ask the right questions. Make this regime feel uncomfortable at every step.
