New Jersey Democratic Sen. Cory Booker broke a record Tuesday evening, speaking for more than 24 hours in a marathon speech protesting the national "crisis" he said President Donald Trump and Elon Musk had created.

Booker's speech, which began Monday evening, continued for at least 24 hours and 19 minutes, surpassing the previous record set by Sen. Strom Thurmond, who filibustered the Civil Rights Act of 1957 for 24 hours and 18 minutes.
