Personal lawsuits against media companies whose coverage offends the president, abuse of the regulatory process to censor the press, and now execution of warrants against journalists. There has never been a more blatant attack on freedom of the press in our history.

Jerome Powell is one of the few people who doesn't cave to Trump's every whim. Now he's Trump's next target. youtu.be/Wa9Bu9O3Xbk?...

Grocery prices are still going up for American families. And there is nothing in Venezuela or Greenland that is going to change that. How about focusing closer to home?

Food Prices Were Stubbornly High Last Year

Save Big Oil a buck or save a life? Easy choice, says the Trump administration. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/c...

E.P.A. to Stop Considering Lives Saved When Setting Rules on Air Pollution

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 13(source)

Trump is clearly ready to turn his illegal use of our military on other countries around the world. The only thing he says can stop him? His “own morality." This, from a man with no ethical compass. The Senate must stop him. youtu.be/DIXSgIVbXa8

From the halls of the Griffith Observatory to the skies and galaxies above, Dr. E. C. Krupp has left an indelible mark on the field of astronomy. He has spent his career making our cosmos engaging and inspiring for all. Congrats, Dr. Krupp, on this esteemed honor. aas.org/press/aas-na...

Let’s be clear: Targeting Jerome Powell is just the latest escalation of Trump's corrupt weaponization of the government in his pursuit of unfettered power. These actions will only weaken the economy, even as they threaten to chill and silence the president’s critics. Powell is right to speak out.

Federal Prosecutors Open Investigation Into Fed Chair Powell

If the administration believes that risking our servicemembers is worth going into another country for oil, let them come to Congress for a vote. But that is certainly not putting America first.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 12(source)

It has no place in our society, and we must call it out in the strongest possible terms and ensure accountability.

Horrified by the vile attack on the Beth Israel Congregation, and praying for Jackson, Mississippi’s Jewish community tonight. Across the country, we are seeing a disturbing rise in antisemitic hate speech and violence. 🧵

Natural disasters don't discriminate between party, nor should parties discriminate between disasters when Americans are in need of help. The California delegation, @padilla.senate.gov and I are urging the Trump admin to deliver the federal aid Los Angeles needs to rebuild, and to do it now.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 11(source)

While Americans are struggling to afford health care and groceries, Trump is more concerned about sending $100,000 each to the citizens of Greenland. I guess it's Denmark First now.

Congratulations to Cal Poly and Cal Poly Pomona students for taking the top award at this year’s Rose Parade! California is home to some of the greatest colleges and universities in the world, and I applaud these students’ ingenuity and creativity.

If anyone blockaded the U.S., launched a military operation to make an arrest on U.S. soil, let alone seized our natural resources, and killed civilians in the process, we'd consider it an act of war.

Nor can it blame the West for its own failures. These massive protests are born of the desire of the Iranian people to live in liberty and peace.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 10(source)

I stand with the people of Iran speaking out and risking their lives to demand a better life for themselves and their children. The repressive and dictatorial Iranian regime must end its crackdown on demonstrators. 🧵

Don't let this administration fool you. The real reason behind this meddling in Venezuela is less about drugs than it is about dollars. Oil dollars.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 10(source)

This tactic is not making our country safer. Far from it.

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 10(source)

We need full, independent investigations into the shootings at the hands of federal immigration officials that have taken place this week in Minneapolis and Portland. This aggressive deployment of ICE into our communities is resulting in a terrible loss of life. 🧵

Sen. Adam Schiff@schiff.senate.govJan 9(source)

Under RFK Jr.'s leadership, the CDC is looking less like an institution that keeps Americans healthy and more like a politically-motivated anti-vax machine. The consequences will be devastating for our kids. youtu.be/H4QhSS2GSkc
