Senator Banks, Rep. Latta, Rep. Whitesides, and I have partnered on a new effort to protect against AI distillation attacks and other security risks by allowing increased information-sharing among U.S. AI labs to counter the threat of foreign theft.
- AS
We cannot allow China, or any foreign adversary, to steal American AI advancements and then weaponize those advances to undermine our own national security.

This is good news for the Melania movie. It will move from worst of the year… to second worst.

Who knows where we'll be when the war enters its sixth month and how much Americans will be paying at the pump?

Four servicemembers died this past weekend in the war with Iran. We mourn their loss, and grieve with their families. Even as we disagree with the President’s decision to take this country to war, we honor those who have fallen.

The Supreme Court has become a rubber stamp for Trump and corporate interests. It desperately needs reform. I break down the 8 cases betraying the Court’s partisanship and bias for big money, and the reforms that would fix the Court. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzwp...

Three American servicemembers were tragically killed in the Iran war this weekend. It's clear that while this war rages on, the American people remain in the dark about the President’s strategy and war aims. How long will Republicans in the Senate allow this to continue?

Trump gave a rambling primetime speech about “election security” last week. The only thing it revealed is that the greatest threat to our elections comes from within. It comes from him. We break down his worst lies from the speech.

Trump's return to a trade war with Canada further imperils American businesses and industries – like California wine – that rely on Canadian markets. As Canada faces a serious natural disaster at home, this is the wrong message to send to our northern neighbor. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/20/b...

This latest attack on the freedom of the press, including weaponizing the FBI to subpoena even family members of journalists, shows how far Donald Trump is willing to go to hide the truth.

If the $400 million plane Qatar gifted the President of the United States is still not safe enough, and Trump is using it against the advice of his own Secret Service, the American people deserve to know.

The Supreme Court, and our federal judiciary at large, must be held to the highest standard — at a minimum it must follow the same ethics rules that apply to other federal officials. Today it does not. Cases should be decided based on merit, not personal profits. Americans deserve nothing less.
- AS
This must be just the beginning. We need a whole set of strong reforms to the Supreme Court. Comprehensive reform must include: ✔️ Term limits for Justices ✔️ An enforceable code of ethics ✔️ Expanding the Court
- AS
✔️ Prevent Supreme Court Justices and other federal judges from participating in cases where they hold personal financial interests ✔️ Enact a ban on individual stock trading by Justices and other federal judges ✔️ Expand the Freedom of Information Act to the federal judicial system
- AS
The Supreme Court is out of control and nakedly partisan. Today I'm making another push to strengthen accountability, transparency, and ethical standards across the federal judiciary. Here's what the bills I'm introducing would do: 🧵

Each time a servicemember is lost is a terrible reminder that those who choose to wear the uniform of our nation shoulder the greatest risk, and pay the highest price, for war.

I’m devastated to learn of the loss of two U.S. servicemembers and another missing in Jordan, and join every American in sending prayers to their loved ones in this heartbreaking moment.

We need to understand what role he played in helping his family’s company in the midst of the DOJ overturning 30 different gun safety regulations in the past year. I’m working to get those answers before Blanche faces a confirmation vote.
- AS
Todd Blanche told a reporter this spring he was “part of the gun industry”. Maybe that’s because his mother-in-law is the CEO of a gun company. 🧵

Donald Trump is using the same old playbook to discredit our elections in advance. He knows Republicans are in trouble this November and wants to lay the predicate to interfere, even before a single ballot is cast. He fears voters and facing their growing wrath over rising costs and corruption.

- AS
By now it should be obvious that Trump intends to repeat his playbook from 2020, and attempt to deny any result he does not like. And tonight was just another attempt by him to avoid accountability and defeat in November.
- AS
What the President presented tonight was not a leveling with the American people. It was a renewed attempt to inject fear and cloud reality ahead of the next election in November and provide pretext for seizing voter data, and discrediting and interfering with election results.
- AS
And Trump himself has discounted these threats as hoaxes in the past, breaking from bipartisan tradition of taking the hard work of our intelligence community seriously.
- AS
Seasoned FBI and other federal agents have been pulled off the beat to chase conspiracies and aid Trump’s chaotic and unlawful deportation agenda.
- AS
Under Trump’s leadership, he has gutted resources committed to combatting foreign malign influence. Funding for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and local election security grants have been slashed under the Trump administration.
- AS
But when it comes to identifying real threats and giving our election administrators the resources to fight them, Trump’s actions speak louder than his words tonight.
- AS
He has also repeatedly ignored and dismissed previous, credible intelligence about foreign interference in elections because it did not fit his political agenda.
- AS
The reality is that foreign governments do try to influence our elections—in fact, Trump has previously encouraged Russia to do exactly that.
- AS
He is merely trying to undermine confidence in our elections, so he can seize voter data under the guise of protecting it, and subvert elections he is convinced his party is losing. He will not succeed.
- AS
Even so, tonight he produced no evidence that China or any other country manipulated a single U.S. voting system or changed a single vote.
- AS
All of his claims and the selective release of any documents must be treated with the greatest skepticism given the President’s many lies and misrepresentations about our elections.
- AS
Terrified that voters will send his party packing in the midterms, he is falling back on some old lies and putting out new ones.
- AS
Trump knows he has failed to deliver on any of his campaign promises, has raised costs of American families instead of lowering them, and gotten us into another Middle Eastern war nobody wanted.

Tonight, the same President who once badgered Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State to find 11,780 votes that didn’t exist, so he could overtake Biden’s lead in the state in 2020, put out a whole new set of lies about our elections, past and present.

So about that speech:🧵

He was lying then, and he will be lying now. Both to continue to contest the last election he lost, and to set the stage to contest the midterm elections to come.
- AS
As you watch the President’s address tonight, keep this in mind: Trump was the guy badgering the Republican Secretary of State to “find” 11,760 votes in the 2020 election that did not exist — but would have been just enough to defeat Biden in that state.

Americans are paying skyrocketing prices at the pump thanks to Trump's war in Iran. Meanwhile, who's winning? The world’s six biggest oil companies are projected to make $94 BILLION combined in profits this year. I'm seeking a federal investigation into potential price gouging by these companies.

Americans have spent a combined $56 BILLION more at the pump since the start of Trump's war with Iran. And he’s not even close to bringing this war to an end. www.jec.senate.gov/public/index...
