Rewarding ICE agents for arrests — even if the person is released without charges — is leading to chaos in the streets and Constitutional rights being violated. This isn’t making us safer.

These are not the words of a President who thinks rationally. Our allies are forced to take this seriously. It is NOT acceptable for an American President to be threatening aggression or war against our NATO allies. It is WAY past time for this Republican Congress to intervene.

This is pure, unabashed bigotry. If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party. But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence. A stain on our Congress.

Trump’s threats to slap tariffs on the EU risk a disastrous trade war with the EU and collapsing NATO. I appreciated the chance to meet with EU President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu at a decisive moment for US-EU relations. America's safety and standing in the world are at stake.

Taking over Greenland is not a joke. Trump is sending messages to foreign leaders and making threats that will destroy the most important alliance we have. Are Republicans in Congress and Marco Rubio really ready to throw NATO away because they’re too afraid to stand up to Trump?

Dr. King repeatedly reminded us that the inaction of good people was the greatest threat to the pursuit of justice. Today, in the face of a lawless and tyrannical president, inaction isn't an option. We must continue to stand up, speak up, & fight back.

The President’s betrayal of NATO is complete with this latest tariff threat. It will only further alienate our allies, drive economic uncertainty, and raise costs. Congress must act, and put a stop this self-destructive madness. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/01/...
