We’ve known for years that foreign governments have attempted to influence our elections – many supporting President Trump. But the fact is, the IC resoundingly found that no foreign governments successfully interfered in the 2020 election.

Tonight is a critical moment for our democracy. Trump is going to use his address to lay the groundwork to interfere in our elections. Follow the facts. Don’t let him mislead you. Our elections are secure and freely administered.

For the past 4 years, the 988 Lifeline has been a lifesaving resource. Last year, the Administration ended specialized 988 services for LGBTQ+ youth, leaving many without critical specialized mental health support. We must fight to ensure every young person has access to the care they need.

Navy Federal Credit Union already agreed to pay back $80 million in illegal overdraft fees to veterans and service members. Then Russell Vought tore up the order and killed the deal. He says the order was unlawful. What's actually unlawful is stiffing our troops out of the $80 million they're owed.

It's never been more expensive to buy a home. This is one of the biggest crises of our lifetime but Trump, a billionaire who owns multiple homes, thinks it's more important to try and rig the next election than deliver relief to the middle class. Pathetic. apnews.com/article/inte...

DOGE quietly deleted itself, saying, “its mission had come to an end.” The kicker? Elon Musk’s pet project increased the deficit. Mission not accomplished.

I opposed the $1.1 trillion NDAA because it does not end President Trump’s unauthorized war with Iran, does not safeguard against the military being used domestically, and fails to justify its historic cost as Americans grapple with soaring food and energy prices. (1/2)

The Beltsville Agricultural Research Center in MD develops the food safety practices that prevent food-borne illnesses like Cyclospora. Yet, this admin is trying to close BARC with a half-baked plan that threatens critical research, wastes taxpayer money, & risks more outbreaks.

There’s currently a backlog of nearly 12 million visa applications, some of which require processing before individuals can file for work permits to be able to work legally in our country. This threatens workers’ jobs, employers’ ability to keep staff, and our ability to prevent costs from going up.

Minnesota farmers are the backbone of our state, and I'm committed to helping them thrive for generations. We'll expand no- and low-interest emergency loans, strengthen farmer-lender mediation and mental health support, and open new markets for our crops. When farmers succeed, Minnesota succeeds.

Donald Trump has given up on winning over hearts and minds. Now he’s focused on undermining the upcoming midterm election. That’s what his speech tonight will be about. But in America, voters choose our leaders – not the other way around. And we will fight like hell to preserve that principle.

No member of the Senate would vote for Todd Blanche after meeting with the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein. Todd Blanche has completely ignored them. His baloney excuses are denying justice for these victims.

Last night the Senate unanimously passed my resolution with Senator Lummis saying Sam Bankman-Fried should never get a pardon. He stole more than $8 billion from hardworking Americans and a jury convicted him unanimously. He's a criminal who deserves to stay locked up. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

For years, private landlords have silenced military families about dangerous living conditions. The kicker? The DoD has signed off every time. Military families have a right to safe housing. I’ve got a bill to make sure landlords are held accountable - let's get this done.

Todd Blanche talks a lot, but he doesn't really say much. Good thing he doesn't have to. Because actions speak louder than words, and since day one, his actions have proved he's unfit to be Attorney General.

We should make it easier, not harder for Americans to build their financial futures. But Vought’s CFPB has made changes that only make it more complex. He’s testifying today in front of the Senate Banking Committee. I have some questions for him.

Trump is proudly selling off our public lands to the highest bidder. Never forget he promised Big Oil everything if they just contributed to his campaign. But we shouldn't just accept this sell-off. Keep speaking up. We can protect America the beautiful.

President Trump has made billions since stepping foot in the Oval Office last January—a staggering windfall emblematic of dictators like Vladimir Putin. While you struggle to afford groceries, the President is focused on adding much more to his fortune. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/02/w...

The Department of Justice tried to criminally indict me over a 90-second video. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche played a central role in that. This is not the standard we should have for a cabinet-level official.

Within an HOUR after being legally appointed by the federal judges as Western WA's top prosecutor, Trump fired Roger Rogoff. Not because he isn’t qualified (he is), but because the President wants a sock puppet who puts Trump above the rule of law. It’s a disgrace.

Just last week, the Trump admin halted the project to put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill. Now, they're all too happy to stroke Trump's ego & put his face on a coin. Our currency should honor the best of America, not those who've done everything to destroy its founding promise. We will fight this.
