Booker Marathon Senate Speech Stages to protest against the “crisis ” he says that Trump and Musk have created

New Jersey Democratic Senator Cory Booker was still speaking in the Senate on Tuesday, organizing a night marathon speech to protest the national “crisis” that he had declared that President Donald Trump and Elon Musk had created.

Monday evening, he said he had to last “as long as [he is] physically capable. “”

Booker has now been holding the ground for more than 8 p.m. and has not shown no sign to stop soon.

“I have fuel in the Tank Man,” said Booker during the 15 -hour brand.

The senator occupies the small square of space surrounding his office on the distant side to the left of the room since 7 p.m. Monday evening. He cannot eat, sit or leave the space surrounding his office.

There have been a number of long, long years in recent years, but the file belongs to Senator Strom Thurmond, which has obstructed the civil rights law of 1957 for 24 hours and 18 minutes.

Booker’s comments have addressed a wide range of subjects, including the Usaid Russian Russia War in foreign countries, concerns about Medicaid cuts, elastic artists in social security offices, among other questions.

He also read letters aloud which, according to him, came from the voters and speeches mentioned from figures such as the late Senator John Lewis, who pleaded for “good troubles” in the fight for justice and equality.

Booker said at the top of his speech on Monday that he had increased “with the intention of disturbing normal affairs” of the room because he said that he thought that the country was in “crisis” due to the actions of the White House since Trump began his second term.

“I get up this evening because I sincerely believe that our country is in crisis, and I believe that not in a partisan sense, because so many people who have reached out to my pain office, for fear, of life by having life – so many of them identify as Republicans,” said Booker.

“In just 71 days, the President of the United States inflicted so much difficulty in the security of the Americans, the financial stability, the fundamental foundations of our democracy and even our aspirations as a people [for] Our highest offices, a feeling of common decency, “said Booker.” These are not normal times in America. And they should not be treated as such. “”

As long as Booker is speaking, the Senate will not be able to lead other cases unless it temporarily yields.

He has been joined by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Democratic Sens. Lisa Blunt Rochester of Delaware, Chris Murphy of Connecticut, Andy Kim of New Jersey, Peter Welch of Vermont, Dick Durbin of Illinois, Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Chris Coons of Delaware, Mark Warner of Virginia, Ed Markey of Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and some others.

Booker entertained questions from the legislators, allowing him short breaks by speaking, but he took care to note that he “keeps speech” so as not to break his continuous taking according to the rules of the Senate procedure. He had to stand during these periods of “question”.
