Today we celebrate the start of the World Cup in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico — the most watched sports tournament in the world. But will it be marred by immigration enforcement, or FIFA’s strange payments to the Trump Family? We break it down. youtu.be/ZeMm17L5-l4

There is no expunging the stain of Trump’s two impeachments. Or avoiding the conclusion that the President cares little about the economic hardships of the American people. His priority is only, ever, Donald Trump.

New data shows Trump’s refusal to extend ACA tax credits could lead to 5 MILLION people losing care this year. Meanwhile, he’s spending your tax money on his Iran war & defense contracts for companies he's invested in. He said it: he's not thinking of anyone else’s finances.

Thank you @msrachelforlittles.bsky.social for sharing letters from children who have been detained at the Dilley Immigration Detention Center. Their stories show the abject cruelty of the Trump Administration's immigration policies—we must put an end to such inhumanity.

Our schools should be safe spaces for our children. Today's action by Trump's ICE on the campus of John Rodgers Elementary/Middle School in Baltimore traumatized our kids. This is not making our communities safer. www.thebanner.com/education/k-...

We need swift action to address the dangers and deficiencies at this facility and stand with those fighting for access to clean water, food & medical care. The lack of care has led to dire, if not fatal, outcomes. That cannot be tolerated.

Reports of inhumane conditions at Adelanto, including those of people being held in solitary confinement simply for speaking out, are deeply disturbing.

Alex and Michaela are both high school teachers. They chose careers serving their community, and they shouldn't have to sacrifice financial stability because of it. I launched my housing plan with them because every Minnesotan deserves the chance to afford a home and build a future.

Tina Peters went to prison for compromising election equipment and now she's branding herself a "champion of election integrity." She's learned nothing — and I’m fighting to make sure she never sees a taxpayer-funded payout.

Do my Republican colleagues also "love" inflation? I assume so since they continue to vote to protect Trump's tariffs and to continue Trump's war with Iran.

Clayton defended Trump’s anti-weaponization slush fund and echoed false attacks on the integrity of our elections. Trump didn’t pick him to serve America’s intelligence community, but to weaponize it against Trump's political enemies and help steal the election. I'm voting no.

A report found that 13 rural Virginia hospitals are at risk of closure—in part because of last year’s huge Medicaid cuts. For many Virginians, these hospitals are the only source of care. I will keep pushing to reverse the cuts and do more to support rural care.

It doesn’t matter who’s in charge. FISA 702 can’t be renewed without real reforms. Case in point: Trump’s latest nominee for director of national intelligence was peddling election conspiracies just a few days ago.

What is the taste of Senate Republicans for another Bove-style cover-up to ram a MAGA nominee through committee while a federal court investigation is pending, without awaiting its results? Time will tell, but the Bove precedent is an ominous one.
- SW
The Blanche “fraud on the court” complaint arose out of what I call the Trump “cop-beaters slush fund,” which even Republicans hate (or are afraid of), so the “fraud on the court” investigation could exhume buried bodies of that rotten scheme.
- SW
“Fraud on the court” is deadly serious, and can lead to sanctions in the case, referrals to the bar for attorney misconduct, and referral even for criminal investigation of possible fraud, perjury and obstruction.
- SW
Where Bove had a pending contempt of court investigation, Blanche has a pending “fraud on the court” investigation. In both cases, federal judges saw evident misbehavior and began the process of investigation.
- SW
The Judiciary Committee deliberately blinded itself to potential contempt of court by a MAGA judicial nominee, and rushed forward in the stay window. Will that “fixeroo” be repeated for Todd Blanche in his confirmation hearings?
- SW
The Committee could have said that we needed the contempt findings in order to determine the nominee’s fitness for high judicial office, so we will hold off on confirmation until after the contempt hearing produces a factual record. The Committee did not.
- SW
The “administrative stay,” customarily a very short-term intervention, in this case lasted four months. In those four months, Emil Bove was rammed through the Judiciary Committee and into a Third Circuit judgeship.
- SW
When the judge scheduled a hearing to look into whether contempt of court had been committed by the MAGA DOJ, two Trump judges on the DC Circuit court suddenly stayed those contempt proceedings. (The dissent is worth reading.)
- SW
When Trump thug lawyer Emil Bove joined the MAGA Justice Department, he quickly became involved in three instances of likely prosecutorial misconduct. One of them caught the attention of a federal judge as potential contempt of court. 🧵

No one should have to choose between paying for groceries or their life-saving medication—yet, for those managing diabetes this is all too common. My INSULIN Act would cap insulin at just $35 a month, ensuring everyone can afford the insulin they need. www.indianapolispost.com/news/2790986...

No one deserves to live in fear of another mass shooting or the daily occurrence of gun violence in our country. That's why I introduced the Gun Violence Records and Restoration Act to combat illicit gun trafficking, prevent gun violence, and save lives.

It's ineffective foreign policy to pretend that half of the world's population doesn't exist. Investments in women is a force multiplier and has been proven to strengthen national security outcomes. I urge Sec. Rubio to uphold his commitments – and the law – and implement these critical programs.
- JR
Last year, Secretary Rubio committed to me that he would maintain programming at the State Department that supports women and girls around the world. But under his leadership, the State Department has terminated dozens of awards and shuttered key offices associated with these programs.

Donald Trump cannot handle that he lost in 2020 fair and square. I wish that were the end of the story, but he’s now using those grievances to lay the groundwork to meddle in this year’s election. I refuse to stand by – we’re going to fight back.

Yesterday, the Senate Armed Services Committee cleared the next defense authorization bill. I voted no. Trump continues to threaten strikes and operations that require ground troops. Two of our pilots were shot down. The Strait remains blocked. And families cannot afford gas or groceries.

Our President started a war with Iran and openly admits he doesn’t care about the financial concerns of Americans—but Americans are paying a steep price. The President was elected to address the affordability crisis, but he’s only made it worse.
