The President can’t fire the Fed Chair over mere policy disagreements, but Trump keeps trying to intimidate and remove Jerome Powell for refusing to ignore economic reality and bow to MAGA demands to cut interest rates as inflation rises.
BARTIROMO: Jerome Powell said he's not leaving TRUMP: Then I'll have to fire him BARTIROMO: And you think Warsh can get confirmed? You think Tillis is gonna give you a vote? TRUMP: He might not, but that's why Tillis is no longer a senator BARTIROMO: Okay
The ALERT Act just passed the House! I’m glad to see its aviation safety reforms reach the Senate and urge my colleagues to make improvements where needed. Congress must prevent a tragedy like last year’s from happening again, and that starts with passing this bill into law.
This bill is major improvement on current aviation safety policy, but there are still legitimate gaps and concerns. As this bill advances, I urge my colleagues to make improvements, close loopholes, and prioritize safety for all over convenience for some.
The ALERT Act is coming to the House Floor for a vote. I'll be voting YES. This bill would implement all 50 recommendations in NTSB's final report on last year’s January 29 collision at National Airport, which tragically took 67 lives.
The administration’s exemption of oil and gas operations from the Endangered Species Act is illegal, and does little to solve the energy crisis created by Trump's illegal war in Iran. I'm working on legislation to reverse this decision and protect endangered species in the Gulf.
President al-Sisi should end his targeting of activists, journalists, human rights defenders, and critics of his government and free all those wrongfully detained for exercising their fundamental freedoms.
As Co-Chairs of the Egypt Human Rights Caucus, @repdelbene.bsky.social and I urge the Egyptian government to immediately release Egyptian poet, writer, and activist, Ahmed Douma.
DHS has now been shut down for 59 days – the longest funding lapse in U.S. history.   The House returns from its two-week recess this week and Republicans are still refusing to bring the Senate-passed bill to fund the law-abiding parts of DHS to the floor.
On Yom HaShoah, we remember the six million Jewish lives lost and all victims of the Holocaust. We honor their lives, their stories, and are reminded of our responsibility to stand against all hate so that this kind of atrocity never happens again.
Anti-vax quacks like RFK Jr. would rather suppress important health information than publicly admit the Covid vaccine is not only safe, but effective. American public health should be grounded in science, not harebrained conspiracies.
Exclusive: The acting director of the CDC has delayed publication of a report showing the covid-19 vaccine cut the likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations for healthy adults last winter by about half, according to two scientists.
To be clear: Americans have the constitutional right to peacefully protest. Any efforts from this administration to abuse the authorities of the federal government to target its political opponents will be fought in Congress and in court.
NEW: The Trump administration aims to use the tools of counterterrorism to go after what it calls antifa and leftist groups. It lists antifa as a priority in an internal intelligence document. Some US officials worry this means more domestic surveillance. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/04/09/u...
Pope Leo XIV is a good man, called to serve and firmly rooted in the teachings of the Catholic faith. Catholics around the world welcome his leadership with gratitude. But of course, it seems that the only religion acceptable to the President is one that sees him as the Savior.
Congratulations to the Hungarian people, who came together to reject authoritarianism and corruption at the ballot box, and to Péter Magyar and the Tisza party on a decisive victory. Today’s result is a win for democracy, in Hungary and around the world.
