=== Cory Booker's Filibuster (03:48) ===

[00:00:00]  Alright, for our last topic, I wanted to explore.
[00:00:04]  Talk about cognitive dissonance and seeing your heroes for who they really are.
[00:00:11]  Did you see that Cory Booker voted to confirm Jared Kushner's dad as ambassador to France?
[00:00:17]  He was the only Democrat to do it?
[00:00:21]  Oh, man.
[00:00:22]  Wow.
[00:00:23]  Interesting.
[00:00:26]  This was pretty funny.
[00:00:27]  So Cory Booker, of course, just went viral and became a liberal darling for doing that filibuster for nothing.
[00:00:38]  Yeah.
[00:00:39]  That 25-hour filibuster that didn't even hold up an actual vote, if I'm remembering correctly.
[00:00:48]  It didn't prevent anything from actually passing.
[00:00:53]  No, it felt more like a David Blaine magic trick than an actual political action.
[00:00:59]  He was like, look how long I can talk for.
[00:01:01]  And then nothing happened.
[00:01:05]  Well, yeah.
[00:01:06]  The Senate just had a vote on confirming Jared Kushner's dad, Charles Kushner, as a French ambassador, despite Charles Kushner's interesting past of Guess what?
[00:01:23]  Blackmailing his brother-in-law with a hidden camera of him having sex with a prostitute.
[00:01:30]  Where does that sound familiar?
[00:01:33]  Sorry, not brother.
[00:01:34]  I think son-in-law.
[00:01:35]  It was his sister.
[00:01:37]  It was his sister.
[00:01:39]  Okay, so what happened was his sister's husband, Charles Kushner, Jared Kushner's dad, His, I think, either sister's husband or daughter's husband.
[00:01:51]  I think it was his sister's husband.
[00:01:52]  Sorry.
[00:01:54]  It was like working with the feds against Charles Kushner.
[00:01:58]  So Charles Kushner arranged for a prostitute to seduce him, recorded it, and then sent it to his sister.
[00:02:07]  Sent him the video.
[00:02:09]  Or sent her the video.
[00:02:10]  Hell yeah.
[00:02:11]  And they both turned it into the state.
[00:02:14]  And he was charged with tampering with a witness, among other things, and sent to prison for two years.
[00:02:22]  After he was let out, he supposedly did prison reform advocacy and Donald Trump pardoned him at the end of 2020, right before he left office.
[00:02:37]  Cory Booker's excuse For why he's friendly with Charles Kushner is because he says that they both worked together on prisoner advocacy and prisoner reform.
[00:02:50]  But if you actually look into it, it's because Charles Kushner funded Cory Booker's failed mayoral campaign in New Jersey and has apparently long since been a Cory Booker supporter.
[00:03:04]  Cory Booker is reportedly friends with Ivanka and Jared Kushner.
[00:03:09]  And a lot of Democrats are just finding that out for the first time with this vote.
[00:03:16]  Again, he took this vote like a week or two after that.
[00:03:21]  Wow, such a strong and powerful filibuster where he invoked John Lewis and other black civil rights leaders while he was doing this performative filibuster.

=== Good Trouble (02:55) ===

[00:03:35]  I think it's tight.
[00:03:36]  I think we're standing like a 007 type over to France.
[00:03:39]  That's pretty cool.
[00:03:41]  We all know the French are pretty horny people.
[00:03:43]  They probably get a lot of work done by seducing them and getting them on camera.
[00:03:49]  I think this is a good move.
[00:03:51]  I think this is more strategic.
[00:03:52]  I think we've got to work across the aisle sometimes when it comes to catching French people fucking on tape.
[00:03:59]  If you're against this, it really just shows what a neolib you are that you aren't willing to try and take down Macron.
[00:04:09]  It's really showing your ass.
[00:04:11]  You say you're a leftist or whatever, but the lib comes out pretty quickly.
[00:04:17]  It is funny, though, because Macron is one of the more vocal anti-Israel or vocal critics of Israel on the world stage.
[00:04:27]  I wonder what happens next.
[00:04:30]  Very, very good.
[00:04:31]  Very, very interesting to bring up.
[00:04:33]  Let me get into some responses.
[00:04:36]  I haven't.
[00:04:37]  I've been on Blue Sky for a while now, but I don't go on Blue Sky.
[00:04:44]  It's not always the most fun place to go.
[00:04:48]  However, I knew when I was looking to see how people were reacting to Cory Booker voting for Jared Kushner's dad, I knew where to go when I wanted responses to that.
[00:05:00]  So I went over to Blue Sky and just, yeah.
[00:05:04]  Brown-Eyed Susan says, I'm still waiting to find out why Cory Booker voted to confirm Charles Kushner.
[00:05:10]  And you go to Brown-Eyed Susan's avatar, 137,000 followers, 108,000 following, 29,000 posts.
[00:05:23]  So definitely a liberal.
[00:05:25]  Definitely.
[00:05:26]  Well, like an online deranged American, follow for follow in the hundreds of thousands.
[00:05:33]  But her cover photo says, Embarrassed American!
[00:05:38]  And her bio says, She slash her.
[00:05:43]  Women's rights are human rights.
[00:05:44]  Fuck fascism.
[00:05:46]  Slava Ukranee.
[00:05:48]  Anti-theist.
[00:05:49]  No human is illegal.
[00:05:51]  Not a sheep.
[00:05:52]  420.
[00:05:53]  Good trouble.
[00:05:54]  Safe place.
[00:05:56]  So yeah, good trouble.
[00:05:58]  Another invocation of the civil rights era.
[00:06:03]  Specifically with John Lewis, Congressman John Lewis talks about getting into good trouble, which means protesting injustices and things like that.
[00:06:12]  And so she feels particularly burned by Cory Booker, who pretended to be good trouble.
[00:06:20]  And as a white lib, she was like, hell yeah, me too, brother.
[00:06:25]  And then he showed himself to be fake, to be a fake friend.
