Tulsi Gabbard says she did “not” participate in domestic law enforcement activities when she was on the scene of an FBI operation to seize ballots in Fulton County So why was she there? Watch her struggle to explain:

Senate Republicans refuse to hold open hearings on the Iran War and its mounting costs. Tonight, I joined my Democratic colleagues in forcing that transparency. We will continue to demand answers from the administration, and an end to the war.

The economy is not working for millions of Americans. Trump's Presidency has made the problem so much worse. Don't just take my word for it. Take it from Linda:

I commend the courage of these women for coming forward and sharing their agonizing stories of exploitation, sexual assault, and lifelong trauma. This is a heartbreaking revelation, and my thoughts are with all survivors who will feel the terrible weight of this new reporting.

Senate Republicans and Trump want to make it harder for you to vote. We're pushing back. Tune in as I hold the Senate floor to BLOCK the SAVE Act and protect our most sacred constitutional right. The right to vote. Watch: youtube.com/live/DFaiTeG...

Rather than saving America from being dragged into a forever war, Senate Republicans would rather focus on their so-called SAVE America Act. Here's how dangerous this voter suppression bill would be for your right to vote:

The true financial cost of the Iran War is hard to quantify, but the billions we’ve already spent could’ve been used on hospitals and health care, or lowering other costs for Americans. Not to mention the increased price at the pump.

Congratulations to Sinners and One Battle After Another on their many well-deserved #Oscars wins! Two homegrown productions, shot in the U.S., which demonstrate the excellence of our domestic film industry and workers.

Here’s what President Trump has to say about the servicemembers he’s sending to war with Iran…

Getting to host Californians at the Capitol with @padilla.senate.gov is one of my favorite parts of the job. Thanks to everyone who stopped by!

$11 billion on Trump's illegal war in Iran. And counting. That no American wants to spend. Where are the billions for housing, hospitals, or health care that the American people actually want?

The cost of building a new hospital is about $100 million. We're dropping the equivalent of 10 hospitals a day on Iran. Trump decided this war was a better use of taxpayer money than giving Americans health care. It’s not.

President Trump says “when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” How about you? Are you making a lot of money?

Donald Trump is demanding billions in personal payoffs from the federal government. It's taking abuse of taxpayer dollars to a whole new level. My Corruption Clawback Act would ensure that the government can get that money back when he leaves office.

Today, the Senate passed the ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill to expand the housing supply and make housing more affordable. I was proud to vote for this bill championed by @warren.senate.gov. The House must pass this vital reform without delay.

There are few people in the world who have derived more benefit from our war with Iran than the Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin. We explain why: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Usv0...

Senate Republicans just BLOCKED the bill @padilla.senate.gov and I called up to reopen FEMA today. Then they demanded we vote to give billions more ICE and CBP, without any reforms. None. 🧵

My heart is with the Temple Israel congregation as we witness another horrifying attack on the Jewish community. Antisemitic hate must have no place in our country. We must condemn it in the strongest terms.

He calls the Iran war — which has already killled 7 Americans and hundreds of civilians — "an excursion." And he’s spending tens of billions of dollars on it. Does that make your life great again yet?

Our disaster recovery efforts should not be held up by Republican's demands to give more money to ICE without any reforms. I'm headed to the floor with @padilla.senate.gov to reject that false choice and call up legislation to open FEMA today.

The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision has allowed billionaires and big corporations to have an outsized influence on our elections. Our democracy is paying the price. We must keep fighting to get big money out of politics, and restore power to the American people.

Americans can barely afford their medicine, gas or groceries. And instead of trying to make life more affordable, the president is spending billions on a war of choice with Iran. We will use every tool we can to bring the war to an end.

Pam Bondi has failed to explain how her brother and his corporate clients continue to achieve unexpected and favorable outcomes in cases in which the Bondi Justice Department intervenes. @congressmin.bsky.social and I are urging the DOJ Inspector General to launch an investigation.

Why are we at war? Republicans won't even use the word 'war', let alone explain why it is worth risking the lives of our service members. I'm working to put members of the administration under oath so we can get answers.

Donald Trump's war is driving up gas prices. But now he's using this chaos to lay the groundwork to restart offshore oil drilling in California at the sites of previous spills. Californians do not want more drilling off of our coasts. Renewable energy is the best way forward.

I’m introducing a bill to ban bets on war and death in prediction markets. Betting on war and death creates an environment in which insiders can profit off of nonpublic information, our national security is jeopardized, and violence is encouraged. Congress must act.

Another alarm bell in this five alarm fire. Donald Trump is still trying to relitigate the 2020 election six years later. He wants to scare election officials and election workers ahead of the midterms. And he’s using the FBI to do it.

Democrats must use all leverage possible to try to stop Trump's illegal war in Iran. We're demanding public hearings. And will continue to force votes on the Senate floor. 🧵

Proud to have helped deliver more than $254 million in investments for projects across California this year. As a result, communities across the Golden State will see key funding to help build new housing, increase fire preparedness, and make critical infrastructure upgrades.

The prolonged refusal to commemorate the bravery of our Capitol Police on January 6th was nothing short of shameful. We must continue fighting attempts to erase or rewrite the history of that dark day.

Another tragic example of how Trump’s indiscriminate immigration raids are targeting the most vulnerable among us, including the family of a deaf child seeking asylum. The cruelty is astounding. Will do all I can to try to reverse this. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Pam Bondi has continued to block the full release of the Epstein files. Republicans and Democrats both recognize that. And subpoenaing Bondi is the first step to accountability. But a hearing is one thing — getting real answers is another.

The Trump admin’s $600 million termination of public health grants will be devastating for California. @pelosi.house.gov and I visited the SF LGBT Center to learn more about how these politically-motivated cuts threaten our health system, and especially efforts to stop the spread of disease.

Donald Trump stacked the commission in charge of approving his golden ballroom with loyalists. Yet even they can't deny that a majority of Americans oppose the project. Destroying the White House East Wing to feed Trump's ego will be a stain on our history. www.cnn.com/2026/03/05/p...

First, Freedom 250, an entity run by Trump's allies, offers access to the president in exchange for donations for America's 250th anniversary events. Then, the admin allocates $100M in taxpayer funds to it while reportedly raising money from foreign sources. We need answers about this scheme.

My thoughts are with the family and loved ones of Chief Warrant Officer Robert Marzan, and all of Sacramento, who are mourning the loss of one of their own. And I pray for every servicemember in harm's way. May God protect our troops.

If the Senate continues to forsake Congress's war powers and its responsibility, there will be soon no constraint left on this president or any other to make war whenever they choose, wherever they choose. And the American people and our sons and daughters will pay the price in blood and treasure.

The Trump Administration is trying to strip veterans of their reproductive freedoms by banning the VA from providing abortion counseling and care. I'm pushing the administration to respect their service and reverse course on this draconian attack on our veterans' health and freedom.
