So… Trump fired 18 inspectors general. NOW: 💰 If a contractor is scamming taxpayers? No IG. 🚨 If a political appointee breaks the law? No IG. 🤑 If Trump officials are lining their pockets? No IG. No watchdogs. No accountability. And House Republicans are just letting it happen.

I know there is a lot of anger and fear over Trump and Musk’s attacks on our federal government and essential programs—rightly so. I want you to know you can count on me to fight back. Here’s an update on what I’m doing…

We knew this purging of equity would hit Indian Country and it has in harmful and dangerous ways. Where are the Republicans that pretend to care about Indian Country?

Trump’s DEI purge targets federal workers who did not work in DEI

Dozens of federal employees who didn’t work on diversity or inclusion issues have been placed on administrative leave following Trump's executive order.

Americans rely on this essential program for severe weather forecasts and emergency information, and I'm fighting back to make sure we keep it. This string of egregious, illegal power grabs cannot stand.

Trump opened the door for an unelected billionaire to dig through Americans’ Social Security and Medicare payment systems. Elon Musk is scheming his way into every part of our federal government – and firing anyone who stands in his way. We cannot allow this.

USAID not only saves millions of lives every year, but it also protects global health and employs thousands of Americans. Yet Elon Musk illegally shut it down – proving once again that Trump cares more about corrupt billionaires' interests than Americans' wellbeing.

Once again, Donald Trump is lying and appears to have no interest in telling the truth about CA water. Some of these photos are from last spring when I toured a floating solar project funded through the Inflation Reduction Act. I confirmed with former Reclamation officials myself.

Pres. Trump posted old pictures on Truth Social claiming to show California aqueducts “brimming” with water thanks to action he took after the Los Angeles fires. However at least two of the photos were taken almost a year ago. CBS News has asked the White House for comment. Here's what we know.

Trump's 25% tariff on Canadian goods is in effect, and folks will bear the brunt at the grocery store, gas pump, and beyond. It's been 2 weeks, and Trump has already betrayed his promise to lower prices - instead he’s burning holes in hardworking Americans' pockets.

Which states may feel the brunt of Trump's tariffs

The tariffs as issued Saturday would have an estimated $232.7 billion impact overall, by one estimate.

This won’t be the last flagrant abuse of power to override the will of the American people. It’s part of Project 2025—and soon, the lead architect Russ Vought, will be calling the shots from the White House. We won’t let them pull the wool over our eyes with constant misdirects & chaos by design.

Trump's reckless move to stop funding for critical programs left millions of people in panic and confusion. The admin took a step back today to skirt laws and tamp down public outcry—but Trump’s executive orders to withhold funds are still alive and well.

Trump is throwing our country into utter chaos. Folks from every corner of my district are terrified of how this will impact life-saving programs they depend on. He is setting the stage to operate as a king—and the American people are paying the price.

Trump is trying to be a dictator. He illegally ordered his cronies to strip away taxpayer dollars that folks rely on for health care, housing, cancer research, wildfire defense—you name it. This takeover is an unprecedented attack on democracy and hardworking American families.

🚨🚨🚨 @rephuffman.bsky.social joins top House Democrats in rebuking Trump's unlawful midnight purge of inspectors general across the federal government. No one is above the law. Trump must withdraw his action and uphold his obligation to the American people.

Wannabe dictator Trump’s Friday Night Massacre of over a dozen inspectors general is blatantly illegal and cannot stand. Democrats will not stand idly by and watch democracy crumble. We'll shine a light on Trump’s abuses of power and draw this corruption out of the shadows for everyone to see.
