And he has done it. Senator #CoryBooker has broken Strom Thurmond’s 1957 anti-civil rights filibuster.

“I am not doing this because of him, I am doing this in spite of him.”

“I’m not quite ready to wrap this up yet.”

Senator #CoryBooker has now entered his 22nd hour speaking on the #Senate floor, criticizing the #Trump admin.

If he makes it to 7:19PM ET, he will have surpassed the all time record in US history.

Senator Strom Thurmond’s 1957 civil rights debate on the Senate floor holds the record at 24 hours & 18 minutes long.

U.S. Senator #CoryBooker addresses the #Senate floor. Booker, a #Democrat from New Jersey, has promised to speak "as long" as he's physically able on the Senate floor Monday night into Tuesday morning, criticizing the #Trump admin.

Hell yeah.

Happening now:

#NJ #Democrat #CoryBooker is delivering a #filibuster in the #Senate

For nonAmericans, it simply means you block all business as long as you can speak

He started at 7 PM Monday, and spoke through the night, and is still going as of 1 PM today

We need *a lot* more than that but it's a start

edit: it's not even a filler filibuster, where you read the dictionary or something empty, he's still on point the whole speech
