Looks like my threat of a GAO audit got their attention. Now they better close the offshore accounts and make way for oversight. Also, where’s JD Vance’s corruption task force?

I'm hearing it from Republicans, Democrats, and Independents: nobody wants a massive warehouse detention facility in their neighborhood.

Why is Pete Hegseth trying to bully AI companies into giving him maximal control over powerful, potentially autonomous weapons? Does anyone really want the Signalgate King having this sort of power?

Dreamers were brought to this country as children. To send them to fend for themselves in a place they’ve never known is unfortunately exactly the kind of cruelty we’ve come to expect from this administration. What happened to “the worst of the worst?”

New York's small businesses shouldn't have to foot the bill for Trump's illegal tariffs. Trump needs to end his Tariff Tax and refund American small businesses.

Senate Democrats will review the unredacted Epstein files in the coming days. The whole world is going to know exactly what Pam Bondi knew, when she knew it, and what she did to cover it up. The survivors deserve the truth, and the American people are demanding it.

Hardworking families are struggling to afford health care and put food on the table thanks to Trump, while he and his family exploit the Oval Office for billions Trump is the most corrupt president in our history—and he and his family are positively gleeful about it.

Another life has been lost at the hands of the Trump-Noem DHS. This person had severe medical conditions, was detained for over a year, and didn’t receive proper care. Republicans, find the courage. This isn’t pro-life.

April may be National Native Plant Month — but it's never too early to celebrate Hawaii's native species! It was great to join Kaimuki Middle School's "Kipuka Garden Champions" in planting a kou tree to highlight the importance of protecting and fostering native plant projects!

This document is proof that it’s essential to keep following the money. I’m convinced there’s a mess of financial crimes running throughout the Epstein story, and a lot of other people who were directly involved are still walking free. That’s unacceptable.
- RW
This investigation was up and running from 2010 until at least 2015. We need to know the results. Did it result in any charges being brought against the targets? Why did it end, and when? Did the first Trump administration squash it?
- RW
The document is a 69-page memorandum written by a highly specialized DOJ task force charged with busting transnational organized crime. It’s way too heavily redacted. First off, I want the complete, unredacted memo.
- RW
This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

We are actually behind the public on climate, and we need to shape up, stop sucking, and get into this fight.
- SW
In sum, we have real, winning economic messages about cost and corruption. 65% of Americans already think climate is affecting their costs. That’s public opinion in its natural state, no thanks to us.
- SW
The Great Climate Insurance Collapse portends real danger. Do we not want to be warning about that? It could happen soon.
- SW
To get really grim, there’s every reason to expect the spiraling insurance crisis to cascade into a mortgage and home values crisis that clobbers the economy like 2008, or worse.
- SW
The fraud and corruption are powerful messaging targets, the public hates dark money, and our climate story improves with a villain in it.
- SW
Finally, we are where we are because of truly villainous behavior by the fossil fuel industry, through its massive climate denial fraud operation and its associated dark-money political corruption operation.
- SW
But 92% of Texans are concerned about the cost of home insurance — a tip-top issue — and 66% already connect the dots to climate change. Let’s communicate on that.
- SW
Look at Texas, where electricity generation has gotten cheaper over recent years because low-cost wind and solar surged onto its grid.
- SW
Tell that story, or its wildfire sibling out West, and link it to the fraudulent climate denial operation Republicans run with their fossil fuel donors.
- SW
Florida has a tottering insurance market, mortgages at risk of becoming unavailable unless they can be dumped on Fannie and Freddie, homes that can’t be sold, and the worst decline in property values of all fifty states.

Add the many expert (often fiduciary) witnesses from my Budget Committee hearings — financial alarms are screaming.
- SW
Fed Chair Powell is useless on climate, but even he sees a near future in which entire regions of the country are unmortgageable, with big hits to banking and the economy as a result of this cascade (look up “systemic”).
- SW
In some places, it’s unobtainable without massive expense (like a new roof) or even at all, in which case your home value falls because no insurance means no mortgage means good luck finding a buyer.
- SW
More powerful in many places is homeowners insurance, a big part of family budgets, one whose cost is skyrocketing.
- SW
Our communications should explain this racket to ratepayers. Once they see the scheme, it’s hard to unsee it. Plus, no one likes being scammed.
- SW
It’s a purposeful scheme to pay back Trump’s big fossil fuel donors using ratepayer money, hoping ratepayers won’t look past their utility bill and understand why that cost is going up.
- SW
That raises the grid price, electricity rates go up, consumers pay more, but fossil fuel interests cash in big time, by billions.
- SW
Start now with electricity rates, being purposefully driven up by Trump. Why? Because when they stall clean energy, the grid must reach up the “generation stack” to fossil plants that would not otherwise be running.
- SW
Until his very last speech, there was no sense of combat, no talk of villains, no warning of consequences (use of “existential” doesn’t count). So we lost four years.
- SW
The Biden administration was particularly bad, hoping to “friendly” its way through climate upheaval with “green jobs” talk, corporate tax incentives and squishy bromides about the environment.
- SW
Let me offer a slight rebuttal on climate politics, beginning with us (enviros and Dems) having done a terrible job on climate communication for a long time. A legacy of bad work is not reason to stop work, it’s reason to do better work. 🧵

Trump's VA issued a policy to hurt vets whose medications are working. Veterans pushed back, and today the VA officially walked it back. This is what happens when veterans make their voices heard. This is what is looks like when we organize—not agonize.

This should worry all of us. Trump doesn’t care about safe and secure elections, he just cares about himself and his power.
