6. Any Senator planning to relieve him?

Chuck, you could relieve him while pushing your new book.

7. Senator Schumer did speak with him from the floor, but it looks like it's up to Senator Booker (so far)

8. Thank you! Booker's knocking it out of the park! Medicaid's benefits to the economy! The hopes & fears of Americans

of all demographics for their health care and futures! He's preaching hope and justice! He is a one-man leader of liberty! This will be cut into every single campaign ad in the next two election cycles because
a) he puts it cleaner/clearer than our Democratic National Convention speeches did, and
b) people feel as if he's one-on-one with them as they watch.
