Last week I spoke with mayors from across the country. They’re concerned– about housing costs, data centers, and ICE – and feel more pressure than ever as the bridge between their community and the federal government.

ICE investigators were supposed to investigate the killing of Alex Pretti. Instead, they investigated Alex. Not his killers. With FBI now leading this probe, I’m calling on Kristi Noem and Kash Patel: Remove all ICE agents from this investigation completely.

An American citizen was brutally ripped out of her car, her window shattered and detained on her way to the doctor. Thank you to Aliya for bravely sharing her story. This kind of conduct by ICE is sickening. And it's exactly what I am fighting to put an end to.

Tom Homan? The guy who put kids in cages? That's who the White House picked to lead ICE operations in Minnesota? If they were looking for an “adult in the room,” they picked the wrong guy. youtu.be/i_oUUUOsyNo

Watch this space: After Trump & Musk gutted the IRS of employees who process tax returns, provide customer service, & hold corporate fat cats accountable, they're understaffed for tax season. What does that mean? Corporate cheats skate by & your returns get messed up & delayed.

Rhetoric didn’t kill Renee Good or Alex Pretti. An unaccountable federal police force did.

Stephen Miller is incapable of following the law or telling the truth—even when there’s video evidence to the contrary. He’s a threat to the country, and even members of his own party find him incompetent. Trump would do himself a favor by ditching him.

Warsh would join the long line of appointees more allegiant to Trump than the independence of their position. That’s why I’ve called for the delay of his nomination hearing until the political investigations of Powell and Cook are closed. We must demand an independent Fed.

My great-grandparents were among the millions of Irish people who immigrated to the U.S. during and after the Irish Potato Famine, seeking a better life and greater opportunity for themselves and their kids. Immigrants today want those same things and shouldn't be demonized for it.

The last U.S.-Russia nuclear weapons treaty expires this week. Without a new agreement, we're at risk of an arms race. This is serious. The Trump Administration must continue to pursue arms control deals to keep Americans safe.

Deploying armed, paramilitary forces to intimidate voters is the behavior of despots and thugs. Here in the United States of America, we also call it illegal.

Far too many Minnesota families have been torn apart by gun violence -- including the two little kids we lost in the Annunciation school shooting last year. I will continue to take on gun violence and work to keep Minnesotans safe, and I'm honored to have this endorsement.

The DNI has no role overseeing domestic law enforcement or in managing U.S. elections — absolutely none. Unfortunately, Tulsi Gabbard has made election denial and sycophancy towards the president her only core conviction. Gabbard could do the country a great favor and resign.

A first step, sure. But there’s usually only 150 in the entire state. This drawdown means there will still be around 2,300 (15x the normal amount) unaccountable federal agents roaming our streets.

Section 702 is a vital national security tool. But without reforms it gravely threatens civil liberties. We must strike the right balance—and that requires information on how the Administration is using 702. Trump officials must testify.

We can’t have someone enforcing the law who isn’t even following the law himself. The American people deserve to know if Tom Homan took $50k from an FBI undercover agent and what he did with the money.
