Hegseth’s arrogance and blatant disregard for basic security is astounding. Hegseth must resign immediately.

And instead of owning up to their incompetence, Trump senior officials continue to downplay the risks, dismissing the dangers, and making excuses to cover for their own failures. It is only by the grace of God that no American lives were lost due to this incompetence.
This wasn’t just reckless – it was an egregious security failure that put our nation security and American servicemembers in grave danger.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth claimed, “nobody was texting war plans.” Yet, 31 minutes before U.S. military jets launched to strike Houthi targets, Hegseth was sending classified launch times in an unsecured, commercial messaging app.

On today’s Democratic Daily Download, Rep. Jim Himes, top Dem on the House Intel Committee, breaks down the Signal chat controversy, why it’s so serious, and what Dems are doing about it.

@reptedlieu.bsky.social on today’s Democratic Daily Download.
Texting top secret war plans is a serious breach of national security protocol. We’re calling on Republicans to join Democrats in opening investigations to get to the bottom of this misconduct.
On #EqualPayDay, we remind the world: Women deserve equal pay for equal work. It’s time to close the pay gap and pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to ensure fair pay for all.
For the first time in 20 years, the gender wage gap has widened. Women are now paid just 75 cents for every dollar that men make. Over a course of a 40-year career, that adds up to more than $573,000 in lost wages.
Yet, Republicans in the House and Senate remain silent and refuse to hold this administration accountable through any kind of oversight. Their inaction is not just shameful, it’s a dereliction of duty.
Their reckless mishandling of classified information and blatant security failures endanger our servicemembers and put our national security at risk.
The sheer incompetence of Pete Hegseth and Trump’s senior officials isn’t just outrageous, it’s outright dangerous.

Supporting the men and women who have served our nation must transcend partisan ideology because supporting veterans is always the right thing to do. We must do everything in our power to serve them as well as they have served us.
These firings are a clear indication that this administration is not prioritizing the needs of the men and women who have bravely served our nation in uniform and is actively undermining the quality of care they receive.
The Trump Administration’s plan to cut over 80,000 employees at the Department of Veterans Affairs, in addition to the 2,400 VA employees who have already been terminated, is an alarming move that threatens the health and well-being of our nation’s veterans.

BREAKING update - Dems fighting back against Trump’s dismantling of public education. More on today’s Democratic Daily Download ⬇️
Medicaid is a cornerstone of our commitment to providing healthcare to those who need it most. Every American deserves access to timely, affordable, high-quality care. That is why I will never stop fighting to protect Medicaid – for our children, for our seniors, and for everyone who depends on it.
Today, I was joined by local health care providers to denounce the Republican proposal for the largest Medicaid cuts in history – jeopardizing care for millions, including over 200,000 Ventura County residents.

Did you know that the law regulating how the federal government collects and uses our personal data is 51 years old?
On today's Digital Download, I talked about how @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting back against Elon Musk accessing Americans' most sensitive personal data.
I will fight relentlessly to protect our public schools, defend students’ rights, and ensure that education remains a national priority – not a casualty of reckless ideology.
Read my full statement here:
I refuse to stand by while Trump, a man who has never lifted a finger to support public schools, destroys the institutions that make the American Dream possible.
