DHS is on track to break last year's record for people dying in its custody. ICE agents tear gassed a U.S. Senator last week. I'm not writing a blank check to an agency that is engaged in nonstop brutality and abuses of power.
American families have now paid $100 BILLION in higher costs because of Trump's war in Iran. Trump promised no new wars and lower prices. He's delivered an endless war and higher prices.
$100 billion. That’s our estimate of the cost of the Iran War to American households. That’s nearly $750 per household. This includes the additional U.S. military costs and the higher energy and other prices resulting from the war.
Bill Pulte is a proven crook who will target anyone Trump considers an enemy. He isn't qualified for his current job, and he would pose an actual threat to our national security as Acting Director of National Intelligence. Every Senator should demand he be fired immediately.
Part of why people are spending more is because Trump is making everything more expensive. In the face of Trump's tariffs, his war & rising gas prices, and the rampant government corruption, I think it's safe to say most people are NOT so optimistic.
Hassett: "People are spending more on gas, but they're also spending more on everything else -- not just groceries, but restaurants and so on. I think that's a sign you see when people are optimistic about the future."
The American people should understand that Trump is spending massive taxpayer resources to needlessly detain families who pose no threat, including CHILDREN. This is disgusting, inhumane, and must stop immediately.
No one should assume Trump will voluntarily put an end to his $1.8 billion slush fund for insurrectionists. So let's put it to a vote—to bar any President from EVER putting taxpayer money toward a crooked scheme like this again. Put every Senator on the record.
This is what happens when you let the opinions of anti-abortion extremists into the doctor's office. They don't care that medication abortion is THE BEST standard of care for miscarriages. All they care about is controlling women's bodies, no matter the outcome.
🚨This video is for people with over $50 million in a trust fund. 🚨 Nurses and firefighters can't avoid paying taxes, so neither should billionaires. Complicated dynasty trusts are just tax avoidance by another name–time to close this loophole, America.
So, in an effort to "punish" Democratic cities, Trump wants to tank our economy even further. Halting international flights into some of the busiest hubs in the country is not just idiotic, it would spell economic disaster for the ENTIRE country.
This is one of the worst industrial disasters Washington state has ever seen.  Yet the community is coming together in an incredible way. THANK YOU to everyone stepping up to help the workers and families confronting this tragedy.  I'll be there for Longview every way I can.
Whether on foot, crutches, or wheels—I’ve no doubt I’ll still be one of the fastest Senators, & I hope to be speed walking through the halls of Congress again very soon. I also want to express my deep gratitude to the staff at Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center for their excellent care & treatment.
Whoops! Earlier this week, while running down the stairs in a rush, I tripped and ended up breaking my ankle—I wouldn’t recommend it. 🙃 Next week, I’ll be back at the Capitol for votes and hearings and doing everything else I can to be a voice for Washington state in the Senate.
It's just nonstop corruption from this White House, and Republicans in Congress are content to twiddle their thumbs and look right in the other direction. NEWSFLASH: Congress should be investigating and putting a stop to this kind of crooked self-dealing—not enabling it.
Everyone who wants a fairer and better country needs to pay attention to this. Republican SNAP cuts have wrongly kicked 700,000 KIDS off food assistance. Children are going hungry to subsidize tax breaks for giant corporations—a disaster. Congress MUST reverse these cuts.
Tonight I heard directly from local officials about their response to the tragic Nippon plant tank failure. I want to reiterate—my heart goes out to the victims and their loved ones. To the Longview community: I’m ready to offer any support I can every step of the way.
