They know the public doesn’t support this costly, stupid war, so they’re grasping at straws to keep control of the narrative.

Of course our allies are ignoring Trump’s pressure to join the war in Iran. Not only is it costly, deadly, and ill-advised… but after a year of tariffs, threats to invade Greenland, cozying up to Russia, and more… why would they trust us?
- MW
Trump’s own director of the National Counterterrorism Center is jumping ship because he cannot support the U.S.’s military actions in Iran. Democrats and some Republicans agree that there was no imminent threat to the U.S. when Trump entered into this war of choice.

I didn’t support Kent’s nomination. Yet I’m glad he is willing to acknowledge the truth – there was NO imminent threat to the United States, and this war was a terrible idea. Even Trump’s greatest MAGA advocates can see this war is stupid, costly, and deadly. When will Trump?
- MW
We’ve seen this disastrous playbook before – it’s a lot easier to get into a war in the Middle East than it is to get out of one. Does Trump have any idea at all on how to end this?

NEW: We’re going to need all hands on deck to ensure AI deepfakes don’t massively influence the midterms. I’m pushing tech companies directly to take steps to anticipate, identify, and counter deepfakes.

Virginia – we’re in for some serious severe weather this afternoon. Please follow all local guidance and remain weather aware. Thanks to all first responders and meteorologists working to keep us all safe & informed today.
- MW
We’re strengthening our adversaries and weakening our alliances with this war of choice. Now, Putin profits while he continues to wage his bloody war against Ukraine… and Americans still pay high prices at the pump.

We need a full investigation into the school bombing in Iran, which took the lives of 175 civilians, most of whom were children. Americans deserve answers about this unconscionable tragedy.
- MW
13 American servicemembers have lost their lives. Gas prices are skyrocketing for working families. It’s clear that Trump entered this war of choice with no real plan or objectives.

Following the horrible reports of a shooter at ODU, I’m heartbroken to see another attack on a Jewish temple in Michigan. (1/2)

I’m closely monitoring the reports of a shooting at Old Dominion University, and am grateful to our first responders. Please follow all guidance from local law enforcement. I’m keeping the students and the community in my thoughts.

Working families already couldn’t afford the cost of living. Now, Trump’s war of choice has triggered the biggest oil disruption in history, and the American people are stuck paying the bill.

How many Americans could we provide affordable health care for with the billions that we’re spending on this war in Iran?
- MW
AI is going to transform nearly every sector of our economy. The question isn’t whether these changes are coming – it’s whether we are prepared. That’s why I introduced legislation that develops practical solutions to help American workers adapt to the rapid workforce changes being driven by AI.

The integrity of our elections are at stake.

When gas prices go up, those costs get distributed to all the suppliers, truckers, flights, and more throughout our economy. You’re not just paying more at the pump… soon, these skyrocketing gas prices will make everything you buy more expensive.
- MW
The conflict in Iran is incredibly expensive and totally optional – but we can’t look away from Trump’s domestic failures either. We need to release all the Epstein Files. We need to get health care for all Americans.
- MW
Pretty weird that Trump says the war is winding down when the stock market is open… and as soon as it closes, he becomes honest again that this is an indefinite conflict…
- MW
If this is winning, I don’t know how much more we can afford.

Senate Dems have offered legislation to fund TSA, FEMA, and cyber defense agencies, but Republicans have blocked our efforts. If they truly cared about Americans' safety and convenience, they'd stop playing politics with security services, fund most DHS components, and work with us on ICE reforms.
- MW
Trump has already spent at least $10 billion taxpayer dollars on this war in Iran… and that number is only going to go up. Trump always finds the money for bombs, but not for Americans’ health care.
- MW
This is an appalling and unconscionable tragedy – 175 people lost, most of whom were school children. There are no words. This war of choice is creating disastrous consequences.

92,000 jobs lost. Skyrocketing gas prices because of the administration’s war of choice. This is Trump’s economy.

There is nothing more worth protecting than servicemembers’ lives. Why is Trump endangering American sons and daughters with no imminent threat to the United States?

Every Tomahawk missile launched costs taxpayers ~$2 million. Trump could choose to fund Americans’ health care instead – but his priority is another deadly forever war.
- MW
So, the president launched this country into a deadly, costly war based on… “a feeling”?

Gas prices have jumped twenty cents a gallon since Trump’s attacks on Iran.

Trump slashes health care funding but spends tens of billions on another deadly forever war.

We’re endangering American servicemembers for a war without any clear, consistent goals. We’ve seen this playbook before. We can’t let Trump drag us into a costly, deadly forever war in the Middle East.

Trump can’t get his story straight when American lives are at risk.

Trump has cut funding for Medicaid, ACA tax credits, school lunches, kids cancer research, energy projects, education, and more. But he found the money for another deadly forever war. He’s risking the lives of American troops instead of providing for your needs.
- MW
The Trump administration has NOT been able to show there was any imminent threat to Americans before they got us into this war of choice.

Many Americans are stuck and scared across the Middle East right now. Where is this administration? Where was the preparation to get these folks to safety? Do they think through anything?

Is Trump finally going to take accountability for lying to the American people back in June?

American families are struggling to afford groceries, health care, and their utility bills. Now Trump’s war of choice in Iran is driving up oil costs too.

Is Trump pulling us into another costly and lethal forever war?

Trump has ordered military strikes against seven nations since the beginning of his second term. Is he still claiming to be the president of peace?

Military families deserve answers. What is the President’s plan in the Middle East?

American lives are on the line — what is this administration doing in the Middle East?

I have seen no indication there was any immediate threat to Americans. So why did we put troops in harms way and potentially ignite another forever war?

Let's be clear on what this admin is likely to try next. They're not just going to unconstitutionally insert the federal government into election processes... they may try to manipulate intel to make it look like there's a reason to.

Why is Pete Hegseth trying to bully AI companies into giving him maximal control over powerful, potentially autonomous weapons? Does anyone really want the Signalgate King having this sort of power?

Why is Pete Hegseth pushing AI companies to give up safety controls?

- MW
Most Americans oppose unsupervised autonomous weapons systems… so why the hell is the Department of Defense bullying an AI company into deploying them?
- MW
Most American families paid an extra $1,700 on everyday items last year thanks to Trump’s tariffs. He ran on lowering costs. Then he slapped a steep tax on everything you buy.

We’ve been raising the alarm for weeks about Trump’s attacks on our elections — now we’re getting details about how they might be planning to do it. Let’s be clear: there’s no national emergency. This is a plot to interfere with the will of voters.
