President Trump has made $2 billion since taking office again while millions of Americans are losing access to food from his cuts to SNAP. He’s using the government to benefit himself– not you. www.wpr.org/news/thousan...

@peters.senate.gov and I are demanding answers and real leadership from Secretary Hegseth about the reportedly poor conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. The service members we send into harm's way deserve nothing less.

Congress should pass the Roadless Area Conservation Act to permanently preserve the benefits these public lands provide our nation and future generations. (3/3)

At a moment when climate change is intensifying wildfire risks, this administration is moving to strip protections from some of America’s last remaining wild forests. (1/3) apnews.com/article/road...

The rural housing shortage needs innovative solutions like this, and I’ll keep working to support these efforts across Minnesota.

My final stop on my five-county rural economy tour: Todd County! I joined local leaders at Hilltop Square Apartments, an exciting project to transform the former Eagle Valley High School into 23 affordable senior apartments — creating much-needed housing.

We need to listen to what President Trump is saying about the elections. And we need to prepare and act accordingly. Read more: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I am aware of the ICE raid in Newburyport and condemn any violent action by Trump’s ICE thugs. There must be a thorough investigation and we must put an end to ICE’s reign of terror. Abolish ICE now.

Trump’s zeroing out teen pregnancy prevention programs is cruel & stupid—after clear data showing how well they work. This reckless, reprehensible step threatens dramatic progress made.

Instead of lowering costs for families, Trump is weaponizing the government to punish Americans he considers enemies. There needs to be an immediate investigation into how federal resources were used to orchestrate a campaign of retribution against Coloradans. www.denverpost.com/2026/08/17/c...

Due to rising prices and Republicans’ decision to cut SNAP funding, families are struggling to put food on the table. I held a roundtable with organizations on the frontlines of this crisis to discuss how we can stand up to policies in Washington that will hurt Granite Staters.

Your healthcare data should be private – not used to support Trump’s mass deportation campaign. HHS unlawfully handed ICE private Medicaid data not once, not twice, but three times. I am demanding with my Senate colleagues that this stops now.

Our kids are an investment for all of us. MediKids is a matter of priorities.

This administration is hell-bent on making childcare less safe and accessible for Wisconsin families — who are already struggling to get their kids good, affordable care. It’s just shameful.

From food and water shortages to mental health crises and more, the reported conditions on the USS Abraham Lincoln are absolutely unacceptable. Our servicemembers deserve so much better. I'm demanding answers and accountability from Secretary Hegseth.

The American wilderness is one of our greatest natural treasures. Now Trump wants to open it up to his development buddies. As Joni Mitchell would say: they’re trying to pave paradise to put up a parking lot.

Another stop on my rural economy tour: Wadena County! Honored to be part of the Farmers Union Processing + Meats grand opening with Sen. Tina Smith, MFU Pres. Gary Wertish & many local leaders. This new 10,000-square-foot meat processing facility will help meet the needs of our livestock producers.

Stepped back into the shuttle simulator I trained in. Brought back a lot of memories from flying Endeavour and Discovery. Spent a lot of time in this sim, but all that time made us better and safer.

Rules for thee, not for me. Trump knows mail-in voting is safe, secure, and convenient. He just wants to make it harder for YOU to vote.

Trump slapped tariffs on produce, and his war of choice with Iran has raised the cost of fertilizer for our farmers and growers. Now, grocery costs are driving American families into debt because of Trump's disastrous policies.

That's why Shasta County already rejected these conspiracies this year by ousting an election denier in their own election — the very one who is now bringing Tina Peters to California. Shasta County should also reject this latest import of election denialism.

Election deniers have no place in California's elections, especially when they've already been convicted of interfering in other elections.

Donald Trump and his cronies are trying to dismantle this country, strip down everything that makes us great, and sell it for parts. They are arsonists. We will not let them burn down our democracy.
- PM
There is no get-rich-quick scheme Trump won't try. The latest? Selling early access to his posts on Truth Social. If this sounds like BLATANT CORRUPTION—that’s because IT IS. We cannot let this crooked money grab go unanswered. I will push for accountability.

Hm, you'd think the self-proclaimed "Father of IVF" who promised free IVF would shut this down. But he hasn't.

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.
