For as long as he is physically able, Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., intends to hold the Senate floor to speak out against President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and the administration's policies.
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., took the Senate floor at 7 p.m. Monday and vowed to speak out against President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and the administration's policies for as long as he is "physically able."
He was holding the floor and speaking Tuesday afternoon.
"I've taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I'm physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis," Booker wrote on X before his speech began.
"Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people," he added.
