The Trump-Bondi Justice Department shut down this investigation.
They’re using the world’s most powerful law enforcement agency to protect themselves and their own—not YOU.

Tom Homan allegedly accepted $50,000 in cash from undercover agents posing as business executives.
He indicated he’d help them win government contracts to detain immigrants if Trump won.
Blatant corruption.
President Trump’s illegal $1,000,000 “gold card” visa scheme is a sham.
We need a fair and orderly immigration system.
We need to preserve our safety and maintain our status as a beacon of hope for the most vulnerable.
President Trump is rolling out the welcome mat for Russian oligarchs and cartel bosses.
Republicans rejected our proposal that would have avoided a shutdown and prevented large health care premium increases for millions of Americans.
I am ready to negotiate with my colleagues, but I will not rubber-stamp the President’s extreme cuts to essential programs that Americans rely on.
Russia’s intentional incursion of Estonian Airspace with three fighter aircraft is further warning that the Baltic nations are in Putin’s sights. The U.S. and NATO must take this as deadly serious.
Senate Republicans have given away the Senate’s authority when it comes to advice and consent.
All to pass President Trump’s extreme nominees.
They have set a dangerous new precedent for the Senate.
Always a pleasure to see Illinoisans at constituent coffee with @duckworth.senate.gov.
Thanks to everyone who joined us and voiced their concerns on Medicaid and mental health.
This is a flagrant attack on free speech.
Remember: authoritarian governments silence and threaten those who criticize or oppose them.
We must protect our democracy and our fundamental rights.
Kash Patel gutted the unit investigating the 764 gang group—a nihilistic gang blackmailing kids to perform vile acts on camera.
Nearly every agent on the squad was reassigned to instead work on Stephen Miller’s personal agenda—arresting innocent, law-abiding immigrants.
Gross.

The U.S. remains a beacon of hope for those trapped under brutal regimes.
Senator Tillis and I are leading a resolution calling for Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu’s immediate release after being wrongfully detained in Azerbaijan due to his anti-corruption work.
After being defunded by Republicans at the whims of Trump, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting announced they will soon be closing.
Today, I spoke with the CEO of CPB, to discuss the future of public broadcasting, especially in rural areas that rely on radio & public TV.
Parents > Big Tech
Always.
The quickest way to hold Big Tech accountable is to give the victims a day in court. Believe me, that gets tech companies’ attention quickly.
Democrats and Republicans agree. Big Tech’s time to police itself is over.

This is the opposite of putting America first.
Our country has experienced horrific assassinations throughout history.
President John Kennedy. Senator Robert Kennedy. Dr. Martin Luther King.
All of us in public life—on both sides of the aisle—have a responsibility to bring down the temperature.
Unite the American people.
