Trump wanted to slash funding for medical research by 40%. The funding bill the Senate just passed said: absolutely not. Not only did we reject Trump's funding cuts – Democrats secured nearly half a billion dollars MORE in funding for critical biomedical research.

Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people. Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech. They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

New reports reveal that the UAE royal family secretly funneled $500M to Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency venture, just days before his inauguration and months before the President agreed to sell the UAE highly advanced AI chips that many fear would end up in the hands of China. 🧵

I am relieved that Liam and his Dad have been released and grateful to Congressman Castro and the millions of Americans who came together to demand action. But we cannot rest until the Trump administration stops detaining and separating families.

This Texas election shows that Trump is really exposed. On ICE, on costs, on healthcare, and on so much more, he’s sinking like a stone.

All we’re asking Trump to do is finally start delivering on his campaign promise for free IVF. Our federal workers deserve the same level of coverage as Members of Congress. This should be a no-brainer.

Corruption, plain and simple. Steve Witkoff, David Sacks, and Howard Lutnick must testify in front of Congress. And Congress needs to grow a spine and put a stop to Trump’s crypto corruption.

This is corruption at a whole new level. America is not for sale, yet Trump is making deals with foreign leaders and giving them unprecedented influence and access. We should all be concerned about the conflicts of interest here.

While leaders try to erase history, it has never been more important to honor the tremendous progress and victories we’ve made. Let us use this time to celebrate the remarkable journey of Black Americans’ resilience, strength, and triumphs. Happy Black History Month!

Welcome home, Liam. A 5-year-old should be in school and with family — not in detention. I’m relieved he and his father are finally headed back to Minnesota. Now ICE needs to leave.

History has proven that freedom isn’t guaranteed. It’s fought for. This Black History Month reminds us we stand on the shoulders of civil rights leaders who peacefully protested, marched and demanded better from our government. We won't let a wanna-be king trample our rights.

This Black History Month, we celebrate the contributions of Black Americans, who have long been at the forefront of our nation’s pursuit of equity and justice for all. There is much work ahead in that fight.

I voted NO on more funding for ICE and CBP to terrorize our communities. We need real accountability and real protection, and we need that now.

Important to hear from @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social this week about what's happening in Minneapolis. Any city could just as easily be next. But the power belongs to the people, NOT Trump. I'll be using my voice and vote to press for real restraints and accountability for ICE and Border Patrol.

The EPA is proposing to roll back decades of progress on attacking water pollution — abandoning their responsibility to protect water quality and limiting the effectiveness of the Clean Water Act. We cannot revert back to a time when pollution caused our rivers to catch fire.

Donald Trump is suing the federal government for $10 billion. That is your money. Never in our history have we seen something like this. The billionaire President always has a new plan to make himself richer, but never a plan to make your bills more affordable.

One thing is clear as Trump continues to use the federal government as a tool to attack his political adversaries: the Federal Reserve must remain independent. www.cnn.com/business/liv...

This is the type of man that Donald Trump allowed to rise to the top of America's immigration enforcement. Disgusting, but not surprising for this out-of-control and despicable administration. We must weed out all of the Dan Bovinos from positions of power—and there are A LOT more of them.

In December, I inspected the ICE facility in Burlington and demanded answers about the conditions the detainees were facing. ICE has not responded. We need transparency now. The inhumane conditions and actions of ICE in Massachusetts must end. I will not stop fighting.

ICE has more funding than all the other federal law enforcement agencies combined. They're not going to stop at Minneapolis. They're going to continue unleashing evil and cruelty on the streets of American cities until Congress puts a stop to this.

Trump promised lower costs. Instead he delivered the opposite: higher costs, chaos, and corruption. This November’s election is an opportunity for us to stand up and do what is right for our state and our country.

There is NO reason this should be happening in the richest country in the world. Republicans knew their inaction would mean Americans paying an arm and a leg for basic health care—and after lining billionaires’ pockets, they CHOSE to make your health care more expensive.

Where the hell is the "Board of Peace?” Over 500 Palestinians have been killed since the “ceasefire.” This comes days after the IDF itself admitted the Palestinian death toll is over 70,000. The use of American taxpayer-funded weapons makes us complicit. Stop the slaughter.
