Trump launched this unpopular war with no strategy and no mission. Six months in, and there’s no end in sight. Costs are up at home. Our service members' lives are at risk. Trump failed us.

The Trump Admin has now approved a bank charter for World Liberty Financial, Trump's family-owned crypto scam. The company, the deal, the entire process is corrupt to the core. As I said in February to the Trump official in charge of this: it was only a matter of time.

I visited Detroit Lakes to talk about my plans to make health care more affordable for Minnesotans. When health care gets cut, rural hospitals and communities are hit especially hard.

Greenbelt, Maryland was selected as the new FBI headquarters after a decades-long, fair, competitive process and the Trump Admin had no right to override it. The court agreed. Team Maryland will keep fighting to bring the FBI’s new headquarters to Maryland.

Lunch boxes, notebooks, pencils? All of it is more expensive this back-to-school season. But Trump wants to blow over $900 million on a gilded ballroom? Trump needs a lesson on priorities.

Add up this, his threat to bomb Oman, the endless Iran mess he made, Greenland, and his weird NATO-hating and Putin-loving, and it should be increasingly clear to Republicans that the guy’s just not all there.

Minnesotans strongly support protecting the Boundary Waters. We are a mining state, but not this mine in this place. The Trump Administration and Republicans in Congress ignored the science and overturned protections for the Boundary Waters, but the fight continues here at home.

The people of Dearborn are once again under attack from an out-of-state influencer looking for controversy. Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud, the Police Chief, and religious leaders of all faiths are again showing leadership and demonstrating that Michigan is united against hate and Islamophobia.

Let's call this what it is: Blanche & Trump's DOJ are continuing their vindictive prosecution of Kilmar Abrego Garcia because, as the judge said, he exercised his constitutional rights. They go after anyone who challenges them. We won't stop defending the Constitution and the rule of law.

As the Trump Iran War drags on, it continues to have severe consequences for our servicemembers. For more than 200 days, the San Diego-homeported USS Abraham Lincoln has been deployed without visiting a port.

While Americans struggle to make ends meet, Trump has already added more than $2 billion to his own pocket. He’s not draining the swamp, he is the swamp. It’s corruption at the highest level.

Millions of Americans have voted by mail, including President Trump. His fearmongering is an attempt to undermine the upcoming elections because he knows his policies have hurt Americans and he’s worried about the results.

I’m fighting for a vision of the future where families can thrive, and billionaires pay their fair share. Republicans are doing the opposite: gutting programs families count on and raising the cost of your health care, all to give the mega rich a massive tax break.

The Trump Administration’s disregard for PFAS contamination is a danger to our environment and public health. We need to better protect Americans from these toxic chemicals. I’m continuing to fight back against Trump’s EPA for ignoring PFAS safety in our country.

North Korea tests ballistic missiles and Trump decides the problem is with ... our ally, South Korea, because it has the sense to avoid joining Trump’s disastrous war with Iran? Kim Jong Un couldn't buy a better deal.

Donald Trump has probably spent more time sitting on a gold toilet than he has trying to find an end to this war. His comments about the USS Abraham Lincoln are insulting and our servicemembers deserve more from their Commander-in-chief. There needs to be an investigation.

If health is the first wealth, Trump and MAGA Republicans are looting the American people. While billionaires get tax cuts, the rest get higher premiums. When Democrats take back the Senate, our first priority: reversing the cuts and lowering healthcare costs for everyone.
