The Senate floor has been occupied with Booker’s anti-Trump speech for 16 hours
Senator Cory Booker broke Strom Thurmond’s record for the longest speech by a senator with his speech lasting over 25 hours on Tuesday. Thurmond had said, “I’ve been hearing from people all over my state and indeed all over the nation calling uponFolks in Congress to do more, to do things that recognise the urgency, the crisis of the moment.”
