    His Youtube channel? - https://www.youtube.com/@senbooker/videos

    It only has snippets. And I assume even if the entire speech was available - there would be no human edited transcript. And all that would be grabable is Youtube’s closed captions. And those are very ugly even for a ~5 minute vid.

    I saw a comment that the speech will eventually be in the congressional record. At first that cheered me but then I realized it will surely be a fucking pdf and I hate those with a passion.

      Yeah that’s annoying. I can’t remember if YouTube still has that live issue where it dies after 24 hours, then you have to restart it. I can’t remember if that limits archiving it.

      You could check C-SPAN. They would have a machine transcription I think.
