Flipboard News Desk<p>U.S. Sen. Cory Booker has set the record for the longest speech in Senate history, surpassing Sen. Strom Thurmond who spoke against the Civil Rights Act for 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957. Booker is still speaking against the Trump administration's "grave and urgent" threat to the country. He has shared letters from constituents and read news articles, discussing a wide range of subjects and in his opening remarks, referencing his hero, the late Rep. John Lewis. "I start tonight thinking about him; I've been thinking about him a lot during these last 71 days. 'Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, help redeem the soul of America,'" Booker said, invoking Lewis' words. "And had to ask myself, if he's my hero, how am I living up to his words?"</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/Jk6qTk" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/Jk6qTk</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/CoryBooker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CoryBooker</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/TrumpAdministration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrumpAdministration</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/USSenate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USSenate</span></a></p>
