Thank you to the faculty and students of Woodland Community College for inviting me to come and discuss issues facing the country. I appreciate all of the thoughtful questions and concerns you raised about a host of matters, and in particular, the administration’s draconian immigration policy.

Trump is once again selling out American national security to enrich himself and his family. More corruption in plain sight, and on a scale that is unprecedented. It must be investigated.

New reports reveal that the UAE royal family secretly funneled $500M to Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency venture, just days before his inauguration and months before the President agreed to sell the UAE highly advanced AI chips that many fear would end up in the hands of China. 🧵

The EPA is proposing to roll back decades of progress on attacking water pollution — abandoning their responsibility to protect water quality and limiting the effectiveness of the Clean Water Act. We cannot revert back to a time when pollution caused our rivers to catch fire.

My first job representing Californians was as a member of the California State Senate. Great to get back to Sacramento and meet with State Senators and Assemblymembers, and talk about how we can work hand in hand to bring down the cost of housing, healthcare, food and medicine.

The President rolled out the red carpet for Putin and still walked away with no deal to end their invasion of Ukraine. Now he remembers that failure fondly enough to hang it on the White House walls. www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

There's no way that ICE agents with barely a month of training know how to use force, or when not to. That’s how we get reckless killings in our streets.

The arrest of journalists for covering a protest is a grave attack on the first amendment and freedom of the press. And proof the Trump Administration is not deescalating. There will be accountability for these abuses of power.

ICE's violence and terror cannot become the new normal for America. We must act now, and bring about real reforms of ICE and CBP to stop their abuse of power and excessive use of force in our streets.

Don't forget: the largest funding spree for ICE in American history was paid for with the largest cut to health care in American history. This terror in our streets was no accident. It was in the Republican budget.

Donald Trump has sowed fear and chaos in our cities, fueled by federal agents who have beaten, detained, and killed in the service of a mass deportation agenda that is tearing families and communities apart. Enough is enough. Not one more dime for ICE.

The midterms are 10 months away, but Donald Trump is already meddling in them. Why a raid in Georgia today should concern everyone 👇

When it comes to masked federal agents breaking down doors and ripping people out of their homes, it's important to know your rights. A warrant is needed, no matter what Kristi Noem says. WATCH: youtu.be/KPOj6C6t7sg

Today, we remember the six million Jews who were murdered in the Holocaust. Their murder is a testament to where unchecked hatred against a people can lead. We honor their memory by recognizing the dangerous growth of this ancient hatred and recommitting to the fight against antisemitism worldwide.

Kristi Noem should never have been confirmed and the country is paying the price for her malevolence and incompetence. She must answer for DHS’s violent and illegal policies and practices. Which have already claimed too many lives.

I hope his return will bring comfort to his family, and mark the beginning of a more peaceful Middle East, with the opening of the Rafah Corridor and Hamas laying down its arms.

As California’s first Senator on the Agriculture Committee in more than 30 years, it was my honor to address CA farmers at the 46th annual EcoFarm Conference in Monterey County! CA farmers and farm workers are facing unprecedented challenges, and I’m proud to be their champion in Washington.

I’m not voting for one more dime for ICE or CBP. These agents are provoking chaos and conflict in American cities and killing people in cold blood.

The White House called Alex Pretti an “assassin.” They called Renee Good a “domestic terrorist.” And their investigations are shutting out local officials. They tell Americans not to believe ‘their lying eyes.’ But no one can believe a word they say.

Trump’s latest attempt to single out states like California for punishment is illegal and another chapter in his campaign of petty retribution. The courts will strike it down again.

The legally-mandated release of the Epstein files is now more than one month overdue. There are still MILLIONS of pages DOJ has yet to release. What are Trump's personal lawyers at the DOJ trying to hide?

Kristi Noem is telling ICE agents they can forcibly enter your home without a judicial warrant. That is unconstitutional. History will judge us if we do not stand up to the lawlessness and cruelty of this administration.

The Trump administration’s scheme to control Venezuelan oil isn’t just imperialist overreach. It will deliver millions of dollars to Big Oil. The American people deserve to know: who in the White House is going to profit? www.cnn.com/2026/01/22/p...

He needs to stop using force without congressional approval and stop making promises he can’t keep.

After using military force in Venezuela without a plan for replacing the regime, the country is still run by Maduro’s henchmen. Now the president has promised the Iranian people that he will come to their aid, but without a plan for doing so that doesn’t mire us down in another endless war. 🧵

The Trump administration is threatening the jobs and livelihoods of Sikh drivers under the false claim it will make our roads safer. It won’t. They are far less likely to be in an accident than other drivers. In Bakersfield, I sat down with a group of Sikh truckers to hear their concerns.

Not only was DOGE illegally accessing your Social Security information, but it was also illegally offering to share it with third-party political groups working to overturn elections. This is a deep betrayal of the public trust and must be fully investigated. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

16 years ago today, the Supreme Court erased the limit on how much the wealthy and big corporations could pump into elections. Since Citizens United, we've seen billions of dollars of dark money drowning out the voice of American voters.

The Trump administration’s abuse of sensitive databases for immigration enforcement purposes has been a go-to intimidation tactic to serve their mass detention and deportation agenda. But sharing data on our veterans is a disgraceful abuse even for an administration hellbent on spreading fear.

Trump was never going to stop at Mark Kelly, Jerome Powell, Letitia James, or me. Targeting Minnesota officials is just Trump’s latest abuse of the DOJ, and his most recent attempt to silence and intimidate those who stand up to him. 🧵

And we are going to fight to put an end to the administration’s cruel mass deportation program which devastates families even as it is a body blow to our economy.

The American people deserve to know what’s happening inside these walls. We are going to keep conducting oversight of what is happening when a friend, neighbor, or family member is detained by ICE.
- AS
But the trauma within ICE detention facilities is unseen, as individuals spend weeks, months, or longer without being reunited with family. Threatened with deportation to countries they know nothing about. And ready to give up on their appeals, to avoid further detention.

And they described a lack of access to vital medical care, like insulin for diabetes. We have all watched in horror as ICE has engaged in indiscriminate immigration raids, grabbing citizens and noncitizens alike, and often endangering the lives of our neighbors in the process.

Many of the people we met with had no criminal record and were showing up for immigration appointments when they were arrested by ICE. They rarely get to see family members — who may live hundreds or thousands of miles away in the United States.

These are just some of the heartbreaking stories @padilla.senate.gov and I heard today at the California City Detention Center. 🧵

In just one year, Trump has abused his office at every turn. He has corruptly worked to enrich himself and his family, while doing nothing to help yours with the cost of living. The fight to preserve our democracy isn’t over — it’s just getting started.

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/...
