UNITED STATES - APRIL 27: From left, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., Maya Wiley, president of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, and Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., conduct a live-streamed conversation with Americans focused on "our common values, our faith traditions and the moral moment facing our nation," on the House steps of the U.S. Capitol on Sunday, April 27, 2025.

Cory Booker must have caught the acting bug from his former Hollywood girlfriend Rosario Dawson, because he is in constant performance mode.

This, of course, is nothing new. Senator Spartacus has always been known for this theatrics.

FLASHBACK:

Cory Booker: “I had tears of rage. And for you not to feel that hurt and that pain and to dismiss the questions of my colleagues, with tens of millions Americans hurting right now because they're worried about what happened in the White House." pic.twitter.com/QuRM2TL2xk

Since Trump’s inauguration, Booker has been trying to find ways to stay relevant. Hence, why he is performed a 25-hour non-filibuster on the Senate floors just weeks ago for no reason.

Cory Booker has taken the Senate floor and plans to filibuster as long as he’s physically able to protest the complete disregard for the rule of law by Trump and Musk.

But nothing seems to be working for Cory, so this weekend he teamed up with Rep. Hakeem Jeffries to hold a sit-in on the steps of Capitol Hill.

I would try to explain the purpose of said sit-in… but to quote HRC, what difference at this point does it make?

Hakeem Jeffries, at a “sit in” on the steps of the Capitol with Cory Booker in another Resistance™️ stunt —

— says this moment in America reminds him of what US Grant said at start of the Civil War:

But by far the worst moment was when the group of protesters decided to sing.

NOW: I regret to inform you, that after TWELVE HOURS of them spewing lies, Hakeem Jeffries and Cory Booker are now SINGING on the Capitol steps

These desperate, attention-seeking pols are on another level lately.

And if you’re curious how this brave sit-in ended… well, let’s just say the scales tipped more on the whimper side than the bang.

LMAO! Hakeem Jeffries and Cory Booker decided to end their little protest SEVERAL HOURS EARLY because everybody started leaving

This outrage is all fake, folks. The American people are with President Trump. https://t.co/YnjwXldkq5 pic.twitter.com/9vBm5NLjT9
