If Trump really was interested in combating drug trafficking, he never would have pardoned convicted drug trafficker and former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez.

Greedy corporations are exploiting service workers with unpredictable schedules and little to no benefits. Workers deserve better. My Schedules That Work Act and Part-Time Worker Bill of Rights would give workers the protections they deserve.

How’d Susie Wiles get access to the Epstein files? And under what authority? The Trump Administration has lost trust with the American people on this case. Full transparency is the only way out.

Our health care system is collapsing. Housing is unaffordable. 60% of people are living paycheck to paycheck. Instead of trying to "run" Venezuela, Trump might try to do a better job running the United States.

On January 6, 2021, thousands invaded the Capitol with the intent of disrupting and overthrowing our government—and Trump urged them to do it. We can never forget this day. We have an obligation to remind people of the truth and the fragility of this democracy.

Trump “in charge”? Venezuela has the same repressive regime, only the names have changed. Trump running Venezuela means no strategy, no legal support, no national security purpose, & now, no moral partners.

Five years ago, we faced one of the darkest days in our nation’s history. If we cannot learn from January 6th, we are setting ourselves up to repeat it. Today, I urge my colleagues to join me in committing to protecting our democracy and most cherished freedoms before we lose them for good.

Today, @padilla.senate.gov and I are introducing bills to make clear that no one who stormed the Capitol should get a taxpayer-funded cash giveaway — especially not those who violently assaulted police officers.

The Trump Administration failed to comply with federal law when it only partially “released” the Epstein files last month. We need an audit.

Mr. President: put up or shut up. If you have credible evidence of fraud, present it publicly. I will join you in addressing it. If you have no credible evidence of fraud, stop penalizing innocent, needy children. Picking on kids is not presidential.

Instead of addressing the lack of affordable child care, Trump is again choosing to attack blue states and make the crisis worse. www.axios.com/2026/01/05/t...

NCAR provides weather data that is critical for everything from agriculture to public safety. Trump wants to gut NCAR and put our communities at risk. We will use every tool to keep that from happening.

If you feel like you're losing your mind as this administration plays footsy with the idea of INVADING GREENLAND, then you're not alone. Let me be clear: America will NOT invade a NATO ally. My Republican colleagues need to join me in making that crystal clear.

Again and again, Trump proves he has no respect for our Constitution or the rule of law. No matter the cost. And Republicans continue to bend the knee to this wanna-be king.

The mob assaulted Capitol police officers, shouted death threats aimed at elected officials and abused American flags to lay waste to the halls of our democracy—and yet the President pardoned these traitors to our country. Many of whom have since committed additional violent crimes.

Five years ago, Trump incited a violent mob in attempt to subvert the results of a free and fair election and upend the will of the American people.

We honor those who held the line and keep the police officers who we lost in our thoughts and prayers. That day was dark—but we honor it as a reminder that our democracy is a fragile flame that we need to defend so it will endure and light the path ahead. (3/3)

But, Americans won’t forget what they saw that dark day. And, neither will I. It was an attack on our Capitol, an attack on our police officers, an attack on your vote being counted fairly, and an attack on our very Democracy. (2/3)

It's been 5 years since Donald Trump sent a violent mob to attack our nation's Capitol. Donald Trump has done everything he can to try to rewrite the history of that day, even letting the 1500 insurrectionists, including those who senselessly beat cops, off scot-free. (1/3)

We will never forget what happened on January 6: Insurrectionists attacked our Capitol with the goal of overturning a free and fair election. Thanks to our heroic Capitol Police, democracy prevailed. We must keep fighting for our democracy — as we have for nearly 250 years.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump ignited a violent mob to attack the Capitol and disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Last year, Donald Trump pardoned over 1,500 of those insurrectionists. It's an assault on American democracy.

Today is going to be a hard day for the Capitol Police, as the pardoned 1/6 criminals who attacked them five years ago return for a Trumpian victory lap, and they have to remain professional. Keep them in your hearts.

Every dollar of taxpayer money President Trump gives to the largest oil corporations in the world to "rebuild" Venezuela is a dollar robbed from rebuilding America.

Today is the perfect day for any Republican to condemn the January 6th insurrection—and hold Donald Trump accountable for once.

Trump’s blanket day-one pardons for members of the January 6 mob were a slap in the face to the brave law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line to protect the country.

Members of both parties who were here five years ago on January 6 remember the chaos and violence of that day, which resulted in police officers’ deaths and injuries.

No matter how Trump’s MAGA goons now try to twist it, the January 6 attack on our Capitol was an assault on our democracy.

Democracies are fragile, and so is our reputation. Nations that have looked to us as a model are looking elsewhere. Five years from now, I hope we'll have a stronger democracy; a nation willing to learn from its history; and a more just America, but we have work to do to get there.

Since then, charges against the architects of the insurrection, including Trump himself, have been dropped by his own DOJ. Right-wing propagandists minimize the attack or push conspiracy theories, and Republican leaders have blocked a plaque honoring fallen officers.

Five years ago, President Trump launched an angry mob at the Capitol. He and his allies led a desperate attempt to overthrow the presidential election, tried to hang his own vice president, and assaulted law enforcement, leading to the deaths of five officers.

Five years ago, a violent mob stormed the U.S. Capitol to try to stop the certification of a free and fair election. The legacy of that attack lives on as President Trump lawlessly undermines our Constitution at every turn.

It doesn't get more wicked than this. Donald Trump is cutting $10 billion for child care and social services in Illinois and 4 other blue states. Playing politics and coming after kids because they happen to live in states that voted against him is anything but America first.

January 6, 2021 was a horrific day. Armed insurrectionists tried overturning a free and fair election. People lost their lives. But Donald Trump—and the Republican Party—still show no remorse.
