One more interesting point: this spring I sat down with Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes for an extensive interview about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media has unquestionably aided the Trump administration’s cover up here.

Massachusetts learned the hard way what happens when private equity puts profits over people. That's why I reintroduced the Health Over Wealth Act with @jayapal.house.gov. It's time we get corporate greed out of our healthcare system.

The president is moving markets to enrich himself. Now he wants to further profit off his corruption by offering a subscription fee to it. I wrote the STOCK Act to stop BS like this -- people in power cashing in on information the public doesn't have. This naked corruption must be shut down.

Bombshell new report out from my investigators this morning spanning our four year investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial records. This report shows exactly how Wall Street protected Epstein and enabled his sex trafficking for decades. Mega thread following with some key points:

We can’t lose sight of this. Millions of families are going hungry in this country because Donald Trump wanted to give a tax break to billionaires. It’s a moral abomination.

Today, Republicans on the Judiciary Committee are planning to advance Todd Blanche’s nomination. He’s one of the most unqualified Attorney General nominees in modern history. I will vote no.

My Children's Safe Welcome Act would shut down Dilley and end family detention. I'm fighting to get it passed and end the Trump Administration's cruel and inhumane family detention policies.

Last week, I asked Trump’s nominee to lead the U.S. Agency for Global Media a simple question: will she commit to not meddling in reporting that criticizes anybody the President likes? She couldn’t say yes. It shouldn’t be a difficult question.

When Democrats stand up for the American people, we can deliver for them; that’s what this continuing resolution does. It not only keeps the government open, it stands in the way of Donald Trump weaponizing this funding for his extreme political agenda.

Senate Democrats have been clear: We want to fund the government, avoid a shutdown, and pass strong funding bills. We will keep fighting for a budget that delivers for the American people and thwarts Trump’s corrupt, costly, chaotic agenda that is stretching Americans thin.

While Trump's war of choice drives up prices at the pump, big oil companies are cashing in on the chaos. This is yet another reminder that Trump’s policies aren’t working for everyday Americans.

Our nation would never be battle-ready without our brave women in uniform who have earned their place in our military. Pete Hegseth's attacks only weaken our readiness. Our WARRIOR Act ensures every servicemember is judged by their ability, not their gender. 19thnews.org/2026/07/wome...

Todd Blanche has made it clear: he’s President Trump's lawyer, not America's lawyer. He signed off on a slush fund deal for President Trump’s supporters. He disrespected Epstein survivors and bungled releasing the files. Blanche has no business being Attorney General.

To be clear: Senate Republicans are caving on a deal that gives Donald Trump and his family immunity from tax audits potentially worth $100 million.

Trump slashed cyber defense funding. Now, states are getting hit with cyberattacks – the evidence is pointing to Iran – and Trump is blaming U.S. states. These coordinated attacks should be a wakeup call. I urge Trump Admin to step up & help defend our nation from hackers.

I’m humbled to see the Norfolk community step up to support those who have lost or are at risk of losing their Medicaid coverage. But let’s not forget that this is only necessary because Republicans’ megabill is stripping tens of thousands of Virginians of the health care coverage they depend on.

Why did the Reflecting Pool cases blow up? Thank Brady v. Maryland, a Supreme Court case requiring that any exculpatory information the government has be turned over to the defense. A Brady violation is a big deal at DOJ (See Justice Manual 9-5.001). ⬇️

This deal solidifies the Trump family's immunity from tax audits. Under no circumstances should the American people believe that Trump‘s former personal attorney will stop his schemes to funnel taxpayer dollars to his allies and supporters.

Trump can’t stop flip-flopping… he threatens airstrikes on Iran, calls them off claiming a deal is within reach, and now talks have collapsed again. Five months into this war of choice, there’s still no end in sight.
