More strong signs that the CFTC is in prediction market pockets—as it approves sweeping new gambling on stock prices, cryptocurrencies, & more. It puts the public in deep peril, setting consumer protection way below industry profits in priority. Time for Congress to act.
A widespread communication outage of this scale is highly alarming—a clear danger to national security, as well as safe, convenient travel close to the holidays. The Department of Transportation owes Americans credible, accurate action & factual disclosure.
The American people deserve immediate reliable assurance that air travel has been fully restored—as well as a prompt, penetrating investigation as to its causes, with full transparency & necessary compensation for impacted travelers.
Cruel & heartless—Trump’s latest SNAP food benefit cuts would hit hard 6 million people, including 50,000 in CT. Right before Thanksgiving. Thanks Mr. President…
Corruption has costs. China’s access to this key AI resource endangers not only our military defense—but also economic growth, jobs & more. Whether by resignation or firing, his departure is imperative, & well deserved.
Lutnick must go. His malign self-enriching malfeasance shows the costs of corruption—putting personal profit above public interest. Making powerful Nvidia chips available to China through an apparent spy undercut both national security & economic competitiveness.
I’m fighting Trump’s continued attacks on our Afghan allies—our nation must keep its promises to them. Proud to join @afghanevac.bsky.social as they push back against the shameful Trump actions.
Derby marked Veterans Day on its historic Green—with enduring gratitude to all who’ve served. A beautiful sunfilled day.
Today & every day, I will fight to make sure we keep these promises & provide veterans & their families the support, care, & benefits they earned & deserve. 2
We should be forever grateful—& proudly express it—to the brave veterans who served & sacrificed to defend our nation. On Veterans Day, we say thank you & reflect on the promises made to these men & women. 1/
Happy 251st birthday to the Marine Corps! For over 2 centuries, Marines have answered the call to protect our great nation—first to fight to defend democracy. Thank you to all who have served & sacrificed. Semper Fi.
I am demanding this funding be released immediately & the Trump admin provide me—& survivors—with a clear commitment that this funding will not be allowed to lapse again. 3
Whether the Trump admin has withheld these funds out of malice or pure incompetence is immaterial. What matters are the tens of thousands of victims & survivors who are suffering without it. 2/ www.blumenthal.senate.gov/imo/media/do...
My damning new report reveals that the Trump admin has failed to award approximately $133.5 million in anti-human trafficking grant funding—about 75% of what Congress appropriated for the last 2 years—forcing programs to shut down or reduce services. 1/
Last Tuesday, Americans robustly rejected Miller’s dark, dangerous agenda. 2
Days after Americans turned out to vote for change, Trump hands the keys to Stephen Miller—chief architect of his cruel, costly failures. Miller has fought relentlessly to make life harder for working families & terrorize immigrant communities. 1/
No veteran should go homeless. Excited & honored to join the National Veterans Council for Legal Redress to announce nearly $2 million in federal funding to help create permanent housing for at-risk veterans.
Targets of my investigations—immigration abuses, Big Tech, crypto corruption, & more—should be on high alert.
As incoming chair of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, I’m sending a warning to all who’ve failed to cooperate.
Message to possible buyers of Fanendes tanker diesel: Congress is watching, & a future Administration will potentially pursue prosecution. To the tanker’s captain: Stay Away. www.kyivpost.com/post/89197
