Republicans lose NOTHING by simply saying yes — except their ability to hold these agencies hostage for more ICE funding. It’s easy, just say YES!

How is this not simple?? We are fighting over reforming an out-of-control ICE. We have agreed to fully fund, no conditions attached, TSA, FEMA, Coast Guard and more.

More Trump/Russia: Rubio went to stump for Orban; Orban is blocking Ukraine $$ for Putin. www.ft.com/content/34df...
Republicans ought to rename their “SAVE” Act.

@whitehouse.senate.gov exposed Ric Grenell's corruption, cronyism, and gross mismanagement of the Kennedy Center.
Now, Grenell is being replaced.
Recycling, when done right, is good for the planet and keeps local taxes down. I’m very pleased that the funding to replace Providence’s aging, hodgepodge recycling carts comes from my bipartisan Save Our Seas 2.0 Act.

Donald Trump is Putin’s puppet.
Always has been, always will be.
Trump: “when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.”
Translation: “We” = Trump’s big fossil fuel donors.
More freedom for Russia from sanctions; more revenue for Russia to slaughter Ukraine.
Whatever Trump/Russia/Epstein is, and whatever Trump/Kushner/Witkoff side deals exist, this is a disgrace.

Trump and Zeldin lie through their teeth when they say they’re protecting our health.
The FBI’s sloppy raid in Fulton County reeks of ulterior motives.
Reposted bySenator Sheldon Whitehouse
Republicans control the White House, House, & Senate and orchestrated this DHS funding lapse.
Democrats have offered commonsense plan to rein in ICE & CBP while keeping the rest of DHS fully funded.
GOP must join us & stop out-of-control ICE and CBP from trampling on the rights of all Americans.
Reposted bySenator Sheldon Whitehouse
In 24 hours, Republicans have blocked FIVE attempts from Democrats to fund TSA, FEMA, our cyber defenses, & Coast Guard while talks continue to rein in ICE & Border Patrol.
Republicans are holding TSA agents' paychecks hostage so they can give more $ to ICE, with no reforms.
Further mischief on offshore wind means further pause on permitting reform. Let’s hope we can go forward without further mischief.

EPA’s own Inspector General found that BILLIONS in grants were awarded properly, refuting Trump EPA chief’s baseless claims of 'waste, fraud, and abuse'.
Zeldin's crusade has always been a total smoke screen to distract from his fossil fuel dirty work.
Their pollution compromises Earth’s natural systems, and their corruption compromises America’s political systems. We won’t be free until we’re rid of their power.
They don’t want an America that works for anyone but them, and their main cause is to be able to pollute for free. They are dangerous.
The fossil-fuel billionaire takeover makes a sham of America’s constitutional structure. Btw, they captured the Supreme Court as well.
Fossil-fuel-funded Republican president and fossil-fuel-funded Republicans in Congress have no reason to quarrel; they answer to the same master.
