Interestinger and interestinger: Remember the Florida federal court inquiry into whether the crooked slush fund and sleazy Trump family tax fraud amnesty deal was a “fraud on the court”? Major development down there! 🧵

It’s obvious – this President never had a strategy to get us out of this war. Working Americans are the ones paying for this war, and this President just does not care. End the war, lower costs.

Americans deserve to know that no one is above the law, especially the President of the United States. The Department of Justice must protect the people – not those who break the law.

We aren’t letting our guard down. We’ll keep up the fight to make sure election deniers and criminals can’t get a ridiculous taxpayer-funded bailout.

The $1.776 billion Trump “Anti-Weaponization Fund” is dead! Whoopee!! Wait . . . . how long ‘til we see a $1.9 billion “Trump Justice Fund”? Or a special drive-up window for MAGA Federal Tort Claims Act claimants?

Minnesota became the first state in the country to fully ban AI nudification technology, despite Elon Musk’s attempts to halt it. A federal judge denied his company’s petition to temporarily block the law. Minnesotans’ privacy isn’t up for interpretation.

No matter what reheated, tired lies the President and his supporters push, Wisconsin knows how to run safe, secure, and fair elections in Wisconsin. After JD Vance and Representative Tom Tiffany refused, I toured a Milwaukee election operations center to see for myself.

Climate action can’t wait, and neither can our students. That's why I'm proud to lead the Green New Deal for Public Schools Act with @jayapal.house.gov to build healthier, safer, and more resilient school buildings and invest in our educators—all to protect kids and help them learn.

An alarming new report shows that the average Delaware household has paid more than $3,000 extra since President Trump took office. You deserve an economy that works for you. Instead, you're paying the price for Trump's failed agenda.

New reporting shows the President met with Big Tobacco at a golf club in Florida and promised he’d do pretty much anything the executives wanted in exchange for millions of dollars in political donations to his campaign.

Trump’s illegal war in Iran is a gift to his Big Oil friends who bankrolled his campaign with the promise of raking in profits. Turns out it's the one promise he actually delivered on. Meanwhile, Americans are paying over $4 per gallon at the gas pump and suffering from rising energy costs.

From Worcester to the Merrimack Valley, Massachusetts knows what’s possible with fare-free transit. My new report with @pressley.house.gov shows that going fare free saves money, grows ridership & simplifies transit. We must pass the Freedom to Move Act so communities can go fare free.

As wildfires continue to ravage the country and the impacts of wildfire smoke are felt across communities, it’s important that Nevadans have the federal resources they need to stay safe.

Insulin is life or death, and capping insulin costs at $35 a month would help millions of American families. I have bipartisan legislation to do just that, and we need to get it done.

Smoke from the Superior National Forest fires made air hazy and unhealthy across Minnesota. That’s why I’m backing the Wildfire Air Quality Sensor Expansion Act to help state agencies monitor air pollution and keep Minnesotans safe.

This supposed 'deal' doesn't prevent payouts to violent insurrectionists in the future. It doesn't prevent the admin from bringing the slush fund back from the dead next week or using DOJ’s Judgment Fund for the same illicit purpose.

Trump promised a Golden Age for America. But with every tax break his donors receive and every day Trump gets richer while the middle class gets left behind, it's clear what he meant: A Golden Age for Billionaires and Billionaires Only.

The recently passed bipartisan housing bill cuts unnecessary red tape that can add thousands of dollars to the cost of building a home. If we want more affordable housing, we need to make it easier and less expensive to build.

Just released budget extension in Senate includes provision based on my bipartisan bill to delay onerous hemp restrictions so we can put more sensible safety rules in place like we have in Minnesota. It goes through mid-December but that should allow more work on this issue.

UPDATE: Partial FEMA funding was approved for the western portion of the Rowe Creek Fire Complex—but the eastern portions of the fire in Wheeler County still need help. I'll keep fighting for the federal funding needed for the rest of Oregon’s major fires.

This short-term funding bill blocks a corrupt policy that would allow Trump to hold even more federal grants hostage—and it closes House Republicans' loophole to pull funding for other agencies to give to Border Patrol. My full statement.⬇️
