Trump is lying and children are dying in Iran. Trump claimed again that Iran attacked a girls’ school where 175 people died, mostly children, using a Tomahawk missile. Not true. Only the US uses Tomahawks in this war. Trump must own up to this tragedy. We must end this war.

Trump's war against Iran is spiking oil prices—increasing gas prices at the pump. Trump's war is also disrupting fertilizer supply chains—risking higher grocery prices and more hunger worldwide. Trump promised to lower costs and end wars, but his Iran war is increasing costs.

First, it was Georgia. Now, it’s Arizona. This President is trying to cast doubt on the 2020 elections in order to justify interfering in 2026. We will not let him get away with it.

As the U.S. gets dragged into yet another endless war in the Middle East by Donald Trump, at a bare minimum the American people deserve someone heading up the NSA who won’t have to learn on the job while defending our country against cyber attacks.
- RW
He also has no experience in national cyber matters. The country needs someone who is prepared on day one to protect this country from cyber adversaries like Iran, China and Russia.
- RW
Donald Trump is weaponizing agencies like ICE to surveil and target American citizens. The Senate has no business putting someone in charge of the NSA who won’t commit to protecting Americans’ constitutional rights.

During his confirmation hearing, I pressed Rudd on the NSA's sprawling surveillance powers and whether he would spy on Americans. During that questioning, he showed no understanding of the Fourth Amendment and the basic constitutional right to privacy of every American.

This week the Senate is going to vote on Joshua Rudd to be Director of the NSA. He's a dangerous nominee to lead an agency with a history of abusing domestic surveillance capabilities. Here's why:

There must be a full investigation into the strike on a school in Iran that killed 168 people, many of them innocent children. The United States must ensure we’re doing everything we can to avoid civilian casualties. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/w...

This administration can't give a straight answer because they don't have one. This war is a disaster and their lack of leadership is going to get more Americans killed.

Trump fired Noem for hurting his image. Americans still deserve REAL accountability for her corruption, whether it’s the luxury jets or funneling hundreds of millions of taxpayer funds to her friend’s advertising agency.

Trump’s war with Iran is costing American families more than $890 million per day. Trump and Senate Republicans said there’s no money for Medicaid, health care, or SNAP programs. There’s plenty of money. Trump thinks it should go to his war, not you.

Trump promised to lower prices on day one. Instead, he's caused a massive spike in gas prices with his reckless war with Iran. When it comes to broken promises, it does not get more blatant than that. And YOU are paying for it.

Proverbs teaches us, ‘the memory of the righteous is a blessing.’ To the families of those who sons and daughters, fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters have died in this war: I pray that the Lord will comfort you, bind up your wounds, and heal your heartbreak

Last week, Republicans blocked a bill to fund TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. They rejected it so ICE and DHS can avoid any level of accountability.

Yesterday, I toured Prince William County’s Crisis Receiving Center—which I helped secure $2 million in funding in FY23 to build—to learn more about the facility’s work to provide services for those experiencing mental health and substance use emergencies.

Senate Dems have offered legislation to fund TSA, FEMA, and cyber defense agencies, but Republicans have blocked our efforts. If they truly cared about Americans' safety and convenience, they'd stop playing politics with security services, fund most DHS components, and work with us on ICE reforms.

For 25+ years, green card holders and other lawful immigrants have been eligible for SBA loans, creating jobs and investing in communities. Now, 5+ million entrepreneurs are completely cut off from SBA loans. Trump's SBA must immediately reverse its cruel, anti-immigrant policies.

Trump believes we have an unlimited supply of munitions. But the reality is, we were already facing shortages before he dragged us into another forever war. So, I asked the DoD to tell me the truth — do we have the supplies we need to deter our adversaries around the globe?

Another alarm bell in this five alarm fire. Donald Trump is still trying to relitigate the 2020 election six years later. He wants to scare election officials and election workers ahead of the midterms. And he’s using the FBI to do it.

The Trump DOJ gave Ticketmaster a sweetheart deal that keeps their monopoly intact & does nothing to stop their ridiculously high prices & fees. The deal was so good, their stock price jumped 6.2% after the news broke. Once again: Trump's putting corporations over consumers.

Instead of lowering prices for you, Republicans are busy dreaming up new ways to make the rich even richer. Here’s their latest idea: sidestepping Congress to hand another giant tax cut to the top 1%.

Trump has already spent at least $10 billion taxpayer dollars on this war in Iran… and that number is only going to go up. Trump always finds the money for bombs, but not for Americans’ health care.

If you had a nickel for every time Trump switched up his story, you might be able to afford the price of gas that’s skyrocketed since he started his illegal war. Working families deserve better.

So Trump wants to keep the option of drafting other people's kids into war on the table. All for a war of choice as he spends billions on bombs and cuts funding for health care here at home. This could NOT be more wrong—Congress should END the war in Iran & FUND health care.
