Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey delivered an extended speech on the Senate floor, beginning Monday evening and continuing into Tuesday morning, to express his concerns about President Donald Trump's actions, which he believes violate fundamental principles. Booker's address, initiated after a procedural vote on a Trump nominee, was a deliberate effort to highlight what he described as an "unusual threat" posed by the current administration. By speaking for as long as he physically could, Booker aimed to disrupt standard Senate operations and draw urgent attention to his apprehensions about the political climate.
