Somebody is looking for his Obama moment. Please make this empty suit the future of the Dem Party.


Democratic Sen. Cory Booker is set to testify against Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions Wednesday in an unprecedented move during his attorney general confirmation.

This would be the first time in Senate history that a sitting senator will testify against another sitting senator for a Cabinet post during a confirmation.

Donald Trump supporter Rep. Chris Collins defended Sessions Tuesday and said "Cory Booker is all about the latest stunt."

"If you remember what he did when he was mayor in New Jersey, the first thing he does is he tries to grab international headlines," Collins told CNN's "New Day." "What he's doing today every -- never before in the Senate, it doesn't surprise at all."

He added, "What Cory Booker is doing is nothing but self-serving grabbing headlines. Jeff Sessions is going to answer those questions."

Libs are pushing further and further away from the middle and wonder why there's so much resistance.

Booker to cement his intention to run in 2020 by throwing a bitch fit to whip all the libs into a lather.



That's what that should say.

if you are going to be a witness, then you should be disqualified from voting

Opposing Sessions is "the middle". Republicans voted to block his judicial appointment too. Sessions once called a white civil rights attorney a race traitor and you want him as AG?

Agreed.

If he is going to be a character witness, his vote should be revoked.

Looks like he evolved just like Hillionaire.

Democratic Rep. John Lewis, a civil rights icon, is also expected to testify against Sessions during his confirmation hearings. Lewis and Sessions were pictured holding hands during a march in Selma, Alabama, in 2015.

This is not the only evidence of abandoning the middle and you know it.

Booker's actions take it to another level. This shite leads to the other side doing it.

It's like the fricking Israelis and Palestinians. This shite is never going to stop and is why I support allowing secession of States.

Politics have always been heated. It gets worse and worse every year. Lifetime politicians are becoming pathetic on all sides. Government is too big and to powerful if you need professional politicians to divide the country, I mean run it.

Only if he promises not to burn down compounds containing women and children and not to clandestinely meet with the husband of a woman under investigation by Justice.

He has to also promise not to throw gasoline onto volatile situations like the one in Ferguson, MO.

If he promises then I'm OK with him.

That was 30 years ago and this is not the same political climate.

Republicans are hoping against hope that democrats fight Sessions using the racism angle. That's the fastest way to get him confirmed. He's gonna have black people and moderate republicans vouching for him on that battle.

If you want him stopped, call out his stances on the war on drugs and civil asset forfeiture and police state tendencies towards big spying. That will stop him, not identity politics.
