Guess what! Senator Jeff Merkley of Oregon is STILL HOLDING THE SENATE FLOOR! Over 24 hours now and he stands tall. Here is the new link in the copy/paste from YouTube. This is Part 3, a new link just started around noon AZ time. I know MSNBC and Democracy Now/Media Matters are also hosting him live. #Filibuster #Resist #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles #SwearInGrijalvaNow #Merkley #SenatorMerkley

Merkley STILL Holding the Senate Floor to Protest Trump’s Threats to Democracy

Right now I got this on YouTube at the link I gave and on C-Span Radio. If you open up the app in YouTube you’ll see over 33,000 views so far and the live comments.

I’m starting my daily tasks and boy, this is a morning I can hardly wait for rich percolator coffee. It just takes a half hour in my stovetop pot. In the meantime I’ve got the C-Span Radio on. It’s morning now in DC and slowly other senators are coming into witness, support, and ask clarifying questions. Illinois as Washington Senators were just speaking with Merkley. #Resist #Filibuster #DontObey #EpsteinFiles #HowDemocracyDies #SenatorMerkley #Senate #Filibuster #Merkley #JeffMerkley

Over 33,000 views since he started over 14 hours ago! This is historic, folks! I recommend opening YouTube app to watch. I’ll be back to give a link if it’s also on CSpan2 #Resist #Filibuster #DontObey #EpsteinFiles #HowDemocracyDies #SenatorMerkley #Senate #Filibuster #Merkley #JeffMerkley

@mastodonmigration I’m so proud of him! He’s on Chapter Four of How Democracies Die. He’s still live, with a second YouTube link as you shared here. 2 screenshots I’ve gotten. First shows the number of views on YouTube first part. Second screenshot shows where he is now after 4 am Washington DC time and 1 am Arizona time.

12 plus hours now and counting. There are comments going in a live chat. I so hope Americans will tune in to hear him, even a short bit. This is so very important on this Senate filibuster.

He is also trying to prevent the Senate from assisting the House where the Congress is still recessed. The GOP in power have been out of session to avoid seating the New Democrat congresswoman who would vote to force a public House vote on releasing the full Epstein Files.

President Trump requested the House avoid a public vote because it would look bad for powerful people who may have participated in crimes or helping the trafficking young teenage women for sex.

Omigosh, he’s got a second wind since I last was awake and listening. Fell asleep with my phone on my chest. Here is a fresh YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/live/ymDt1XecYfI?si=AKD58r4TSJ-fPA2Z
He is almost at the 12 hour straight mark! #Resist #DontObey #EpsteinFiles

“The entire place has been blown up to make it impossible for people to return. You can know that from satellite photos, but somehow it burns it into your mind to see it in person.”

#SenatorMerkley called the total devastation of Rafah part of a broader #Israeli strategy of #ethniccleansing in #Gaza

Sen. Merkley: US Aid Fuels Israel’s Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine

Sen. Jeff Merkley isn’t mincing words on the complicity of the United States in the ongoing decimation of Gaza. “This is horrific, and we are complicit in it,” Merkley said in an interview last week with the Mercury. “We are complicit because we provide the bombs, we provide the rifles, we provide the shells, we provide economic support.” Merkley’s remarks, some of his most pointed yet on the war waged by Israel in the Gaza...

Portland Mercury
While they offer a variety of reasons you might be contacting them, I think it's rather telling that neither #SenatorWyden nor #SenatorMerkley have an option to indicate you're emailing them about the "Defense of Democracy" in their email web forms. Why would anyone worry about that?
Seems like people in #Oregon that don't support the GOP continuing resolution need to be calling #SenatorWyden. Sounds like #SenatorMerkley already plans to vote no for both cloture and the final bill. His DC phone just rang endlessly when I tried but the Portland office is taking messages.
I left messages at all of the offices of #SenatorMerkley, too. I predict the Democrats will roll over in submission once again, however.
