Don't let this administration fool you. The real reason behind this meddling in Venezuela is less about drugs than it is about dollars. Oil dollars.

This tactic is not making our country safer. Far from it.

We need full, independent investigations into the shootings at the hands of federal immigration officials that have taken place this week in Minneapolis and Portland. This aggressive deployment of ICE into our communities is resulting in a terrible loss of life. 🧵

Under RFK Jr.'s leadership, the CDC is looking less like an institution that keeps Americans healthy and more like a politically-motivated anti-vax machine. The consequences will be devastating for our kids. youtu.be/H4QhSS2GSkc

Today's vote to advance our resolution to block further military action in Venezuela was significant. We'll now have a full debate on the Senate floor over the President's use of U.S. military forces, and a mission that seems to be far more about oil revenues than drugs.

Now is the time for Senate Republicans to join us, or to explain to the American people why they think rising health care costs are a good idea.

There are no more excuses: The Senate must take up and pass this clean three-year extension of ACA health care tax credits. Americans’ monthly health care premiums have already spiked.

First, they said it was about stopping illegal drugs. Now, they say it is about starting oil deliveries to the U.S. In order to create a presidential slush fund. Same corrupt regime in Venezuela. And at home.

Finally, the Senate is exercising its constitutional power over the authorization of the use of force to prevent America from being dragged into a new war over oil.

🚨BREAKING: The Senate just advanced the resolution that @kaine.senate.gov, Sen. Rand Paul, @schumer.senate.gov and I introduced to block further unauthorized military action in Venezuela. 🚨

The Trump Administration is planning to gut emergency workers and disaster preparation efforts. As we mark one year since some of California’s worst fires, this will make our communities less safe and more prone to repeat disasters.

On the one-year anniversary of the Palisades and Eaton wildfires, I joined @governor.ca.gov and @padilla.senate.gov to hear from fire survivors about their efforts to recover & rebuild. There is so much more that needs to be done to help LA communities come back from these devastating fires.

One year after the devastating Eaton & Palisades fires, we’re still waiting for the White House to release funding that families desperately need to recover. The fight is far from over, but @padilla.senate.gov and I are working everyday to make sure Californians get the assistance they deserve.

Under Trump, we’re witnessing increased, violent confrontations by federal immigration agents that are putting communities at risk, not keeping us safe. We must refuse to accept this as normal. There must be an immediate investigation and accountability.

One year ago, the lives of thousands of Californians were changed forever. We will never forget all that we lost, in life and treasure, even as we strive every day to rebuild and grow stronger with the memory.

As our January 6th Committee report showed, many heroic Americans stood up to Donald Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election. But the Big Lie did not stop after January 6, and we need to be ready as Trump and his loyalists work again to undermine our free and fair elections.

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...

Five years ago today, our nation and our democracy experienced one of its darkest days.

No one should bemoan the end of Maduro's reign. But Trump's illegal operation is about more than just Venezuela. It's about a President believing he has no limit to his power as Commander in Chief. Congress must say no to this abuse of force.

— How will the Trump Administration respond if China or Russia seize on this precedent to justify their own military action against foreign leaders? And the most important one of all: how does this end and what is our exit strategy?

— What happens next if Venezuela’s remaining government leadership refuses to defer to and cooperate with Trump? — How does the Trump Administration plan to control Venezuela’s oil? Will Trump deploy military assets to do so?
- AS
A few questions among many that Donald Trump avoided today, and the American people deserve an answer to: — What is the Trump Administration’s actual plan to “run” Venezuela? — Will President Trump deploy American troops to Venezuela? If so, how many and at what cost?
- AS
Donald Trump is clear: he launched this war to remove a foreign leader and now he claims the U.S. will “run the country.” In other words, Donald Trump wants the U.S. to be an occupying power and control the oil.

We have to continue to fight this. Donald Trump may want to make oil spills great again, but Californians don’t.

During my first year in office, I have visited nearly half of California’s 58 counties. Wherever I go, I ask the same question: how can I help? It is the honor of a lifetime to serve the Golden State in the Senate. Onto 2026.
