With costs out of control—who in America feels like they’re “winning so much”? Maybe billionaires, but that’s it.

The DOJ's handling of the Epstein files has all the stench of a cover up. Pam Bondi does not have the right to pick and choose which Epstein files to release to the public. The American people were promised the truth.

The Epstein Files coverup keeps getting worse: The DOJ has apparently withheld several memos detailing accusations against Trump. AG Pam Bondi: It's not your job to protect the President from embarrassment, it's your job to give Americans full access to the truth.

Trump lied to the American people last night when he said he would protect Medicare. Here’s the truth: Republican’s Big Ugly Bill slashed 12 years of Medicare benefits for seniors. x.com/marcgoldwein...

We asked Raiza, Dylan’s mom, what she would say to Trump after ICE arrested her son for no reason. This was her response:

Trump's first year in office has been a disaster—and every single one of my State of the Union guests have been hurt by his radical and dangerous policies. It's important everyone hear these stories.

If JD Vance wants to get to the bottom of fraud and corruption in government, the good news is that all he has to do is walk down the hall into the Oval Office.

Americans have questions: What about my electricity bill? How am I going to pay for my groceries? How am I going to afford healthcare? Trump’s answer: affordability is a hoax. He’s in a bubble so thick he can’t hear what people are going through. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/25/u...

For nearly two hours: Trump congratulated himself, inflated his own ego, patted himself on the back, and offered no solutions to our country’s many problems.

Last night was not America's State of the Union, it was Donald Trump's State of Delusion.

Affordability: Trump thinks it’s a hoax, but the American people know exactly what it is.

Dylan entered legally, followed the law, showed up to his court hearing—he was still detained. Raiza, his mother and my SOTU guest, shared the nightmare her family has endured since. While Trump lies, thousands of families are living with the consequences of ICE’s cruelty.

As Trump rambles on, the American people are still waiting for justice and transparency on the Epstein Files. My #SOTU guest, Dani Bensky, was a victim of abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, and like so many of her fellow survivors, she’s not standing down in the fight for justice:

Aleshandra Fernandes is another one of my guests at tonight’s State of the Union. She’s a union ironworker on offshore wind projects on Long Island. Thanks to Trump’s attempts to shutter offshore wind projects, she no longer feels secure in her livelihood.

The American people will see tonight that Democrats offer a better choice forward: A choice to lower costs. A choice to end the chaos. A choice to restore some sanity to our country.

Dani is a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse. She’s here today as my guest to attend the State of the Union because even after everything she endured, she is still fighting—not just for herself but for every survivor who was silenced, ignored, and dismissed.

Tonight, the American people will see a president whose ego does not let him see the reality of Trump 2.0: Costs. Chaos. Corruption.

—Dani, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein —Raiza, a mother whose son was detained by ICE —Aleshandra, a Long Island ironworker whose job is at risk as Trump attempts to shutter offshore wind projects —Ben, a Rochester small-business owner forced to lay off 25%+ of his workforce due to Trump’s tariffs

Tonight, I'm joined by 4 great New Yorkers—each of them proof of the consequences of Trump’s actions:

Trump’s first year in office recapped: —Illegal tariffs have raised costs —Masked ICE agents are terrorizing our neighborhoods like cartel thugs (right Senator Mike Lee?) —And they still won’t show us the full Epstein files

Donald Trump said he is going to talk for a very long time tonight. God help us. Not sure what he thinks there is to celebrate, because America is a mess thanks to him.

Reminder that THIS is the state of our union:

On top of wasting your taxpayer money on whatever this is, he is hiding the truth of the Epstein files and protecting the powerful instead of seeking justice for the victims. What an embarrassment of an FBI Director.

Trump doesn't care about the burdens he's imposing on Americans with his tariffs—but Democrats do. We will NOT extend the Trump tariffs once they expire in a few months. We'll do everything we can to stop them. We won't stand for higher prices and more inflation.

I’m proud to bring Dani Bensky, New Yorker and survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, as my guest to the State of the Union to demand the truth. Dani has turned unimaginable pain into unrelenting advocacy. Survivors deserve justice. Trump must end the cover-up and release the full Epstein files—NOW.

Raiza's son, Dylan Lopez Contreras, was the first NYC public school student detained by ICE. He entered legally, followed the law, and was still detained after attending a mandatory court hearing. We won’t stop fighting to bring Dylan home and end ICE’s lawlessness.

NEWS: Raiza Contreras, a Bronx mother whose family has been ripped apart by ICE, will be my guest at the State of the Union.

Trump’s chaotic tariff policies have already been rebuked by Democrats, Republicans, and even the Supreme Court. They are a tax on Americans, driving prices higher for families. @democrats.senate.gov will block any attempt to extend Trump’s tariffs when they expire this summer.

Americans are losing their health care to pay for Kristi Noem’s luxury plane. Democrats are going to make Senate Republicans defend this indefensible spending.

Trump illegally taxed American families and small businesses, and he’s not giving them their money back. Even his Treasury Secretary admits it. x.com/factpostnews...

A victory for the wallets of every American consumer. Trump’s illegal tariff tax just collapsed—He tried to govern by decree and stuck families with the bill. Enough chaos. End the trade war.

Now Trump wants to spend $2 BILLION to recreate what already exists, with worse results. This is exactly what I warned about and it is exactly why I launched an investigation into the Trump administration’s domestic and global health cuts.

This is Aliya Rahman, a disabled US citizen who was on her way to a doctor’s appointment when she was violently assaulted, arrested, and detained by ICE agents. This is why we’re not giving DHS a cent until ICE is reined in – including use of force standards to which they can be held accountable.

This goes beyond Epstein. I met with survivors & advocates in Rochester and Buffalo to push Virginia’s Law to eliminate the statute of limitations that has shielded criminals like Epstein. Because justice should NEVER expire.

As we honor Rev. Jackson in the coming days, I will be thinking of the many lessons he taught us: “Never look down on anybody unless you’re helping them up.” We should all seek to embody that spirit and serve others the way Rev. Jackson did. Keep hope—alive!

Jesse Jackson was an icon of the civil rights movement and a fearless warrior for justice for all. He was one of the most powerful forces for positive change in our country and our world. America is a more equal, just place thanks to his work. My prayers are with his family & those inspired by him.

This is why there must be a full, independent investigation of every incident that ICE has been involved in. DHS and this administration cannot be trusted to carry out investigations on their own. And it’s why Democrats are fighting to rein in ICE.

This is not America. This is why Democrats voted NO on more funding for ICE. And we will continue to do so until ICE is reined in and the violence ends.

Trump tried to throw two US senators of the opposite party in jail simply because he didn’t like what they said. This is an attack on free speech. This is an attack on democracy. This is an attack on the rule of law. And the American people won’t stand for it.
- CS
When a President tries to jail Senators for speaking their minds just because he disagrees with them, that is not a Democrat or Republican problem—it’s a constitutional crisis of the highest order. We must all come together and take action to stop this erosion of our democracy.

There is no such thing as clean coal. Air pollution from coal causes cancer, asthma, and heart conditions. Stop putting your billionaire donors over the American people.
