The president's latest intervention only underscores a simple reality: the biggest obstacle to resolving these issues has not been Senate Democrats or Senate Republicans. It has been the chaos and confusion coming from the White House itself.

National security cannot be governed by social media post.
- MW
At every turn, the president has injected more uncertainty into a process that should be focused on one thing: keeping the American people safe.
- MW
First installing Bill Pulte, then nominating Jay Clayton, then demanding unrelated legislation be attached to FISA reauthorization, and now threatening to derail both the confirmation process and a bipartisan reauthorization effort.

Over the past two weeks, President Trump has careened from one personnel decision and political demand to the next –
- MW
What we're witnessing is an extraordinary display of dysfunction from a president who seems determined to turn America's national security into a political bargaining chip.
- MW
Americans have spent hundreds more to fill up their tank during Trump's war of choice. You paid more while Trump loosened sanctions on Iranian oil – lining their pockets at the same time that Americans struggled with skyrocketing prices at the pump.

Surprise, surprise – Trump is using $300 million+ of your tax dollars to finance the ballroom he swore wouldn’t cost you a dime.
- MW
In March, Trump said that no taxpayer would put up even 10 cents for his ballroom. Now, taxpayers are covering more than half of his $600 million project. Can the president stop lying to the American people?
- MW
While Americans are paying more for health care, gas, groceries, and energy, Trump is taking more than $300 million taxpayer dollars and forcing it toward his vanity ballroom project.

It was great to be in Richmond last week discussing the opportunities and challenges AI presents. I’m working every week to ensure Virginia is ready to protect workers and maximize scientific advancement as AI continues to change our economy.

Trump is focused on a UFC match at the White House while his war of choice and rising inflation drive up Americans’ cost of living. Could he be more out of touch?

Trump says he “loves inflation.” Since he took office, Virginians are paying: $572 more for housing $310 more for groceries $444 more for gas

We need a coordinated strategy to protect our democracy. I’m teaming up with other senators, legal experts, and leaders in the election security space to protect our democracy from Trump’s efforts to subvert our elections.

Bill Pulte could be Trump’s most dangerous appointee yet. This week, I walk you through his troubled past, how I think he may interfere in our elections, and explain my plans to stop him.

- MW
Watch Trump’s attempts to cast doubt on the results of the California elections closely. This is probably just a test run for some of the interference he’s going to attempt in our midterms. We cannot let him get away with it.
- MW
Bill Pulte was picked as Acting DNI for one reason, and one reason only: his willingness to weaponize private information to help Donald Trump. And now Trump wants to give him the keys to all of our classified intelligence!
- MW
Trump has said the war in Iran is over 30+ times. So why are there still headlines like this?

- MW
Trump has claimed that his war of choice is over 30+ times, but the troops still in harm’s way and the Americans still paying $5 for gas know he’s full of it.

My daughter Maddy was an extraordinary person. On my hardest days, I find strength by remembering her.

Trump said the quiet part out loud… he picked Bill Pulte because he wants him to investigate our elections. This is all just a totally bogus attempt to justify interfering in the midterms. We must stop Pulte. We must reject this plot.

This article spells out what we’ve long known – Trump will fire or intimidate anyone, even devoted Republican loyalists, to chase after his sham prosecutions and bogus investigations. He’s weaponized the DOJ to go after personal vendettas instead of serious crimes. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/08/u...

Trump stormed out of an interview after he was challenged on his baseless claims about election rigging. His inability to accept the truth is leading to an administration filled with unqualified yes-men.

Republicans know that Trump’s new DNI appointee is outrageous. What will it take for them to grow a spine and vote their conscience?

- MW
NEW: I voted against Republicans’ attempt to pass the SAVE America Act – and it failed. We will squash this blatant attempt at voter suppression.
- MW
Giving Bill Pulte the keys to our 18 intelligence agencies would be a disaster, and my Republican colleagues know that.
video
- MW
NEW: I just introduced an amendment that would block Bill Pulte from being DNI. If even half of my Republican colleagues that have privately voiced concerns about him vote for this… it should pass.
- MW
We’re voting all day in the Senate today on Republicans’ disastrous $72 billion spending bill. There’s no need to give ICE – already better funded than most militaries across the globe – even more of your tax dollars while prices surge. I will be fighting it.
- MW
Bill Pulte is a Trump sycophant known only for his willingness to attack Trump’s political opponents. He has no intelligence experience and no military service. Does anyone really want him to have the keys to our intelligence agencies?
- MW
It seems there is an entirely different set of rules for Republicans and Democrats.

Data centers are contributing to rising prices. This week, I break down what I want to do to stop it:

“Two people characterized the work as among the most delicate that the Pentagon performs.” This administration thinks a convicted Jan. 6 rioter should be doing that kind of work?????

I’m glad to see Todd Blanche affirm that Trump is abandoning the $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund… but talk is cheap. We must pass a law banning this kind of open corruption so there’s no way for Trump to EVER get away with it.

- MW
NEW: I’m glad to cosponsor the Power for the People Act, which would lower your power bill by ensuring data centers pay for their own electricity. This is just a first step – we need to address several other related concerns – but I'm ready to keep up the fight to lower costs.

I’ve heard from a lot of folks who are scared about the changes AI is bringing. Every day, I’m focused on regulating AI to make sure that we can prevent job loss and protect our national security, all while keeping room for innovation.

Happy Pride Month, Virginia! 🏳️🌈 This month and every month, we stand together to celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of our LGBTQ+ community.

We must pass commonsense prevention measures – like the ones in @kaine.senate.gov and my Virginia Plan – that will help protect our communities from the epidemic of gun violence.
- MW
Seven years ago, 12 people were killed and 4 others injured in a senseless shooting at the Virginia Beach Municipal Center. My heart goes out to the victims and families whose lives were forever changed by this act of violence.

The Supreme Court has systematically gutted the most important piece of civil rights legislation. Make no mistake – it will have catastrophic impacts on Black representation in Congress. We need to keep fighting for legislation that restores the Voting Rights Act.
- MW
Trump doesn’t give a hoot about Americans who are struggling under the weight of his failing policies. Even if this war of choice is nearing its end, we’ll all be stuck paying for it for years to come.

Trump is more focused on his 80th birthday UFC fight than he is on ending the war in Iran.
- MW
Even before the full force of Trump’s Medicaid cuts, almost 2 million kids lost Medicaid coverage this year. It’s only going to get worse. We need to move towards universal health care so we can stop these painful coverage gaps.
- MW
While Americans are being crushed by rising prices, Trump is brainstorming new ways to stoke his ego. Maybe if he were more focused on lowering costs for working families, they wouldn’t need a new $250 bill to afford necessities.
video
- MW
If this White House put even half as much energy into working to lower costs as it does into stoking the president’s ego, American families wouldn’t need that new $250 bill just to fill up their gas tanks. (3/3)

... renaming buildings and airports after himself; rewards for allies who attacked the Capitol on January 6; a passport bearing his image; and now, apparently, even a proposal for a $250 bill with his face on it. (2/3)

As Americans struggle with the rising cost of gas, groceries, housing, and health care, President Trump’s priorities for taxpayer dollars are completely detached from the challenges families face every day: a gold-plated ballroom; a monument blocking Arlington National Cemetery... (1/3)
