Senator Booker tries to enter the record books of Trump Derangement Syndrome with a record-breaking 25 hour speech in the Senate. These long political speeches are usually to block legislation. This one is just because he hates Trump. The nominal excuse for it is that Booker is attempting to prevent Elon Musk from trimming back on benefits from Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Musk is actually going after fraud, with his primary target those listed as being more than 120 years old. To Booker, this is obviously age discrimination, likely to take food out of the mouths of his aging relatives. There's also the risk that Musk may use age discrimination against Democratic elderly voters. We'll see if Booker attracts much of a following. In the words of William Shakespeare, "Brevity is the soul of wit."
