No bathroom breaks: How Booker accomplished record Senate speech

  • Cory Booker, a senator from New Jersey, delivered a 25-hour speech in the U.S. Senate, breaking the previous record held by Strom Thurmond, who spoke for 24 hours and 18 minutes.
  • Booker stated he aimed to demand more from Americans instead of promising more, emphasizing the need for Democrats to lead rather than follow public opinion.
  • Experts noted Booker's speech as an 'amazing physical feat,' as he underwent significant physical strain, lacking food or rest during the marathon address.
  • Booker vowed to address significant issues and expressed concern over the Trump administration's policies, saying Democrats must take bold action.
