Trump would rather withdraw Blanche's nomination than give up his slush fund for Jan 6 rioters & his sweetheart immunity deal that prevents anyone from scrutinizing his, his family's, or his businesses' taxes. Tells you what this nomination was really about: protecting Trump.

Today marks the 61st anniversary of Medicare & Medicaid, the backbone of our health care system. While Trump & Republicans slash these vital programs, I will continue to support bold ideas like Medicare for All to ensure every American has access to the care they need.

Apparently, it’s not that important for Trump to have an Attorney General. Certainly, not if it conflicts with his ability to protect himself from tax audit or investigation, or to reward friends, cronies and insurrectionists with taxpayer funds. It’s always about him. Never about you.

Rural hospitals across Minnesota are on the brink & Trump’s Medicaid cuts are making it worse. Rachelle Schultz of Winona Health knows that rural hospitals need a leader who fights to protect the care Greater Minnesota depends on. As Governor, I’ll make sure Minnesotans can get the care they need.

"It's a big, gigantic, blown-up Ponzi scheme." THAT is what a Senate Republican said on the floor just yesterday. At a time when Social Security is facing insolvency, we need to fight to SAVE Social Security now and for future generations. NO cuts, NO privatization.

Once again, Trump can find $25 billion for a vanity project to spruce up an airport for his lobbyist buddies, but he can't find a dime to help Delawareans with the cost of living.

When natural disasters strike, first responders need reliable power to carry out emergency services. That's why I’m introducing a bill to strengthen the electrical grid for communities in Vermont and across the country as climate change makes disasters more common. https://bit.ly/4vUz5I1

BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' proposal to end Donald Trump's IRS sweetheart deal. This deal gives him FULL IMMUNITY from audits on tax returns he's filed. It's corruption on steroids.

Republicans tout their “Big Beautiful Bill” as a great achievement, yet in New Hampshire we’re seeing its true impact: families kicked off SNAP and strained food banks. All to fund tax breaks for billionaires. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026...

Special education allowed my son, Ben, and millions of kids with disabilities to go to school with their peers, make friends, and succeed in life. That's the difference special education makes, and why we can't let the Trump Administration undermine these programs.

Earlier this year, leaked video showed dangerous overcrowding at ICE's Baltimore holding facility. It showed dozens of people packed into a tiny room in violation of ICE's own regulations. I will not stop fighting until we stop these abuses for good.

Medicare and Medicaid have helped us access healthcare for 61 years, but because of Washington Republicans’ cuts, 8 million and counting have lost their coverage. Senate Democrats are fighting to make sure you and your loved ones can always get the care you need.

Donald Trump's economy is a complete and total failure. It's been nearly two years, and his administration is still blaming Joe Biden!

As Trump’s illegal war with Iran enters its sixth month, millions of Americans are still paying the price, and our servicemembers’ lives remain at risk. Although support for the resolution was bipartisan, more Republicans must join the demand for an end to the war.

Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law on this day 61 years ago. Today, nearly 2 in 5 Americans & more than 3 million Washingtonians – including hundreds of thousands of children – rely on these programs for affordable healthcare. We must protect these life-saving programs.

Worker productivity is up 92% while hourly pay is up just 34%. And Fox News thinks young people can’t afford things because they’re lazy? I don't think so. It's time to unrig our broken economy.

I try to meet with every cabinet-level nominee as a courtesy, including Acting AG Todd Blanche. He still can’t explain his mishandling of the Epstein files or his refusal to fully shut down President Trump’s billion-dollar weaponization slush fund, and I’m still a no on his confirmation.

I just voted AGAIN to try and end Trump’s war in Iran. Once again, Republicans blocked it. When will they wake up and realize this war is spiking costs, accomplishing little, and endangering American servicemembers?

If Trump did NOTHING, very low-income families would have had their child care costs capped at 7%. But he scrapped that policy and Republicans voted to increase the cost of child care. Money for war, but nothing for child care.

The Port Shuaiba attack exposed Trump's failure to protect and care for troops who are injured. Trump and Hegseth must stop putting servicemembers in harm’s way, failing them when they’re wounded and then covering it up. I’m demanding answers.

Trump would rather keep this key position vacant than allow the DOJ to confirm in writing what the American people overwhelmingly believe: the President shouldn’t be above the law, and we shouldn’t have a $1.8 billion slush fund for those who attacked police officers on Jan. 6.

Over and over, Congress has forced votes to end Trump’s illegal war in Iran. Americans DO NOT WANT this deadly conflict. It’s simple: to lower costs and protect lives, this war needs to end. NOW.

This confirms how committed Corrupt Trump and Weasel Blanche are to defending their cop-beaters’ slush fund and Trump tax fraud amnesty. Should be easy to reassure those two senators, if Blanche were sincere about what’s dead.

ICE doesn't move detainees across the country by accident—it's a strategy. That's what they did to Eduardo, who's married to a citizen. Detained on the job, he was shipped off to Texas at 2AM, away from his wife & attorney. I'm demanding he be brought home and get due process.
