Close to breaking the Senate record for the long speech, New Jersey's Cory Booker ripped into Trump & his attacks on the rule of law & history itself.

As NPR noted, “The longest filibuster on record was a 1957 speech by then-Democratic Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina — in opposition to the Civil Rights Act — that lasted for 24 hours and 18 minutes.” Technically, Booker’s speech was not a filibuster since the Senate wasn’t holding a debate over a specific bill or nominee.
