Me getting ready to talk about why Todd Blanche is unfit to be our next Attorney General.

What Todd Blanche has done to our Justice Department under Trump should disqualify him from becoming Attorney General. I break it down: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXti...

Int’l monitors have documented hundreds of these incidents in recent years, including in CA and across our nation. More countries are engaging in threats, intimidation, and violence inside other nations. This legislation would respond to & deter this growing threat & help keep it from our shores.

My new bipartisan bill with Sen. Curtis codifies the first federal definition of transnational repression, centralizes oversight, and enhances criminal penalties for perpetrators.

As China and other nations ramp up their efforts to intimidate and attack critics and dissidents around the world, the United States must take action to protect these important voices. 🧵

Is it any wonder that the American people lack any confidence in the President’s handling of this war?

Two unarmed people shot by ICE in less than a week, the latest now in Maine. Republicans, instead of focusing on passing enforceable guardrails to stop ICE's terror and brutal tactics, have decided to give this unchecked agency billions more through reconciliation.

By forcing a new vote to end this war, we make it clear that Congress insists on the removal of troops from the region barring an authorization of force accompanied by a truly viable strategy — both of which have been lacking.
- AS
Any assertion by the Trump administration that he gets 60 more days to act without Congress has no foundation in law.
- AS
The events of the last week prove why Congress must reassert its war powers authority. We were promised the war would be over for months. And now in a matter of days we've gone from a bad U.S.-Iran deal to more strikes, another blockade, and added turmoil that will only drive prices higher.

In order to help small manufacturers compete in an increasingly small and globalized world, I’m leading bipartisan legislation to require the Department of Commerce to release funding that is essential to hundreds of thousands of manufacturers across the country.

American manufacturing is vital to our economy and our national security.

More than $53 million in federal investments are headed to California to improve bridges, roadways, and other transportation infrastructure, made possible through @padilla.senate.gov's and my support for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

After all, what says absolute loyalty like a giant picture of your face?

An 8-story-tall Trump certainly qualifies as propaganda and self-aggrandizement. It also demonstrates once again how much he identifies with other authoritarians he admires – with military parades and gold-plated makeovers of the White House.

- AS
Last year, I exposed more than $50,000 being spent on other giant Trump banners at other government buildings across D.C. Congress has long banned using federal funds for propaganda – and this self-aggrandizement is a clear violation of that law.
- AS
Donald Trump also spent more than $114,000 on banners at the FAA, with his name splashed across the bottom.

There’s now a new banner featuring Donald Trump and an “American First” slogan, which cost $39,000 to print and hang at the Department of the Interior.

NEW: I just uncovered more evidence that Donald Trump is spending hundreds of thousands of your tax dollars to print giant banners of his face and put them on government buildings. Not only a terrible waste of the hard-earned dollars of the American people, but also an illegal use of public funds.

CA leads the nation in scientific advancements & cutting-edge research. White House Office of Management and Budget new proposed rule puts all this in jeopardy & makes way for politically motivated decisions that serve the President over science. They must rescind this rule immediately.

His staunch support for Ukraine, his willingness to reach across the aisle, and his quick wit and larger-than-life energy are all part of his memory and legacy.

And I will fondly remember our travels around the world along with Senator McCain to advance America’s national security interests, and the respect world leaders had for him.

What I’ll remember most about Senator Graham was his sense of humor and how he deployed it to move his policy positions forward. Though we did not often agree, Senator Graham was never disagreeable.

Sending my deep condolences to Senator Lindsey Graham’s family, friends, and all those who loved him.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy and the key to national prosperity. I’m partnering with Senator John Curtis to introduce legislation that will help modernize the SBA so it can use technology to better serve small business owners. www.schiff.senate.gov/news/press-r...

Trump is wasting more than your tax dollars on his ballroom, gold plated statues, reflecting pools and get-rich quick schemes. He's wasting time he should be using to focus on lowering your costs.

Once again, ICE shot and killed someone in broad daylight. This time, a loving father and husband, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. This latest tragedy is a reminder of why we’ve been fighting for real reforms of DHS and an end to this administration’s cruel and dangerous immigration agenda.

As Americans struggle with the cost of rent or mortgage payments, the president has a message for you: buzz off. He’s not interested. He made two billion off the presidency last year, and he couldn't care less about the hardships of ordinary people.

President Trump continues to spread lies and conspiracy theories about the November elections just as he did in 2020. This latest attack on a bipartisan election agency is more of the same effort to sow distrust in our voting system so he can contest the results if they are not to his liking.

Canada's boycott of California wine is causing devastating harm to winegrowers. I'm urging the Canadian government to recognize that California doesn’t agree with these tariff wars, to lift these restrictions, and increase consumer options to strengthen both our economies.

And if sick and dying infants aren’t a case Trump DOJ thinks is worth pursuing – what is?

What role did Todd Blanche play in dismissing the criminal case? What role did Kirkland & Ellis, a firm providing “free” legal services to the Trump administration while also representing Abbott, play in killing the case?
- AS
Even after Trump political appointees at the Justice Department recommended criminal charges against Abbott Laboratories over contaminated baby formula, top Trump DOJ officials reportedly closed the case. I’m launching an inquiry today to find out🧵:

Trump’s Iran War continues, now in its fifth month without authorization from Congress. And the American people continue to pay the price. Meanwhile, the Iranian regime has pocketed billions from Trump’s “deal” without stopping its attacks on vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

That should start with Donald Trump finally signing the largest housing bill passed by Congress this century. And Congress should build on this bipartisan momentum by advancing bills like my Housing BOOM Act to launch the next great American housing boom.

California is on the front line of America’s housing crisis. And while new housing is coming online to provide much-needed affordable options – like Harrington Heights in Downtown San Diego – we can and must do more to increase the supply of housing.

Happy Independence Day! As we celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday, we must continue fighting for the rights and freedoms of all Americans. Our nation was formed from an improbable experiment, rooted in an unproven idea that the people could govern themselves.

Donald Trump generated more than a billion dollars last year through his cryptocurrency ventures by blatantly profiteering off the presidency. It’s time Congress instated ethical guardrails to put an end to this shameless grift. apnews.com/article/trum...
