The most corrupt President in American history also has an extremely corrupt Cabinet. Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick have used their positions to funnel millions of dollars to themselves and their sons, all while Americans are struggling with daily expenses.
GDP growth for Q2 came in lower than expected this morning: 1.5% (vs. the 2.1% economists predicted). Growth has averaged 1.9% under Trump — lower than the 2.4% during Biden's last year and the 3% Trump's Treasury Secretary has promised to deliver by the end of the year.
Trump has said the economy should be growing as much as 15% a year. Last quarter it grew at only one tenth that, recording a meager 1.5% annualized GDP growth as the war upends energy markets and supply chains. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/b...
While I understand that Fairfax County has adopted guidelines intended to minimize the impacts of data center infrastructure on surrounding neighborhoods, I agree with residents and stakeholders that the proposed substation is inconsistent with those goals.
Like many of my constituents, I'm concerned about the potential impacts of the Edsall Data Center Substation 2232 application in Lincolnia, which is currently before the Fairfax County Planning Commission. I have urged the Commission to deny the application.
Even some of Trump’s Republican allies thought his slush fund and “license to steal” lifetime audit pass were too corrupt. They made ending them the price of confirming Trump’s Attorney General nominee.

Now Trump says he would rather have the corruption than his AG.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump says he may pull Blanche's nomination for attorney general, looking to avoid concessions to holdout Republicans.
In 1965, Medicare and Medicaid transformed healthcare by ensuring millions of Americans could get the care they needed, regardless of cost. It's time to extend that same promise to every American – whether through my bill, the Choose Medicare Act or Medicare for All.
This war was always a terrible idea, the cost in lives and economic pain is too high, and it isn’t making us safer. I voted against funding the war, and for a resolution to bring it to an end.
Repeated deadly incidents have made clear this is not a training failure. It is a systemic failure. ICE is beyond reform. It’s time for Congress to replace it with and immigration enforcement system that reflects our values and the rule of law.
White House border czar Tom Homan said the vetting and training processes for ICE agents are “under review” after revelations that the agent who allegedly shot and killed an immigrant in Maine had been accused of domestic violence.
Today the Senate is set to take its first votes on the Lindsey Graham Sanctioning Russia Act. With 84 cosponsors it's expected to move fast and pass. Unfortunately, it's a bad bill that is unlikely to achieve its stated goals. The bill has 3 major flaws, if you read closely- 🧵
America’s history is complex, inspiring, painful, and unfinished. The Smithsonian exists to educate and preserve that history honestly, not to conform to any administration's preferred narrative.
The Trump administration repeatedly blocked my oversight of USAID, USIP, and ICE facilities because it didn't want Congress doing its job. I introduced legislation to guarantee Congress can perform its constitutional oversight duties without obstruction or delay: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...
It is past time for our nation to fundamentally reevaluate its security relationship with the state of Israel. I voted to cut assistance to Israel to send a message to the Israeli government that it cannot take U.S. security assistance for granted any longer.
Very sad to hear that civil rights leader and Arlington icon Dr. Alfred Taylor has passed. He was a tireless advocate for Green Valley and was a beacon of hope in our community, and we will miss him. Sending my thoughts and condolences to his family and loved ones.
Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth seem to have no idea what the plan is to end the war with Iran, which has already killed at least 18 American service members and thousands of Iranians. No one else should have to die for this to end, effective diplomacy is the only way forward.
