Summary

Senator Cory Booker’s speech on TikTok live surpassed 350 million likes as he stood for over 25 hours speaking in the Senate chamber.

Booker broke Strom Thurmond’s record for the longest Senate speech, which lasted 24 hours and 18 minutes in 1957 to block civil rights legislation.

    I just saw a comment on a reddit thread saying that on tiktok live you can repeatedly press the like button, and it caps at 2000 likes.

      That seems a little disappointing. I don’t use TikTok so not overly familiar with anything about it, but 2000 seems a bit excessive. Like I could maybe see a max of 3. 2 for something you really like and then 3 for something amazing or something you love.
