US Rep Al Green (D-TX) holds a sign as President Donald Trump arrives to deliver the State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress at the US Capitol in Washington, DC on February 24, 2026.
President Donald Trump delivered the longest State of the Union (SOTU) address in American history, using most of his time to spotlight immigration and target Somalis, again.
Trump spoke for one hour and 48 minutes — more than 20 minutes longer than Bill Clinton’s previous longest record for a US President speaking at a similar occasion.
