This referral of Jack Smith is happening now because my Republican colleagues are mad they didn’t ask the right questions.
This is all about retribution, rewriting history, and doing Trump’s bidding.

This is disgusting and wrong. Government grants and funding should go where they’re needed. Which Presidential candidate a state voted for in the last election should be irrelevant to that calculation.
This is an unacceptable breach of the public trust and we can’t let it become normalized.
Mega corporations and their ultra-rich CEOs shouldn’t be able to muscle through major mergers without scrutiny just because they cozy up to Trump and his admin.
@warren.senate.gov and I are calling for an impartial review of Fox‘s $22 billion deal for Roku.
Actions have consequences.
It turns out that when we slash research funding and fire public health experts, we see entirely avoidable disease outbreaks.
A handful of meatpacking giants shouldn’t be able to control our food supply and drive up costs for working people.
We need to break up these monopolies, restore competition, and build a food system that works for our families and our independent farmers.
This morning, I again voted for a measure that would end Trump’s war of choice in Iran. And good news… it passed with some Republican votes!
This illegal, immoral, and deeply unpopular war is costing American lives as well as massive amounts of money every single day.
It needs to come to an end.
They want us to trust ICE with a supersized budget.
All while they aren’t all wearing body cameras, they’re still wearing masks and hiding their identities, and they’re chasing after innocent people in unmarked cars.
Americans don't want this horror carried out in their name or on their dime.
I just stepped off the House floor after voting against legislation that would give an additional $73 billion for the illegal and immoral war in Iran.
Our servicemembers deserve accountability from the Trump admin - what’s the plan to get us out of this mess?
I just voted against the annual defense bill on the House floor.
While so many Vermonters struggle to afford their daily lives, I just can’t justify giving Trump and Hegseth $1.15 trillion to continue trampling on our Constitution by engaging in a war of choice in the Middle East.
Vermont families and businesses will pay the price for this.
These reckless 50% tariffs will raise our costs, threaten good-paying jobs, and further damage a trade relationship that our economy depends on.
My Republican colleagues in Congress can – and must – put a stop to this.
Once again, Republicans are playing games.
Today, they’re bringing up a bill that they *want* you to think is a stock trading ban for members of Congress. It’s not.
They’re also attaching a subsection of the SAVE Act to it because they know Democrats won’t support it. It’s diabolical.
Republicans are proposing policies that would lead to kids – including toddlers – facing immigration judges in court WITHOUT A LAWYER.
You can’t believe in the human dignity of these children and support this policy. It’s flat out wrong.
If this is allowed to stand, it would mean that the government is able to ignore the Constitutional free speech rights of any noncitizen and lock them up without a federal court being able to step in. Truly chilling.
I’ve been standing with Mohsen this entire time and that’s not stopping now.
Now over a year since he was illegally detained, the Trump admin is still trying to deport Mohsen Mahdawi in violation of the First Amendment.
I’m deeply disappointed in today’s decision.
Great meeting with @maryltrump.bsky.social today.
We talked about the stakes of this moment and how to rally folks around the cause of American democracy.
It’s going to take a lot of hard conversations, but it couldn’t be more important for the future of our country.
Hundreds of thousands of small businesses are at the whims of huge platforms like Amazon and Walmart. They can destroy livelihoods without notice, explanation, or recourse.
It’s time we return power to the people with an Online Sellers Bill of Rights.
If ICE agents were acting lawlessly before, imagine what they’ll do now that the Trump admin is trying to get rid of yet another basic accountability measure.
It's a disgrace and no way to do responsible law enforcement.
If it walks like a demagogue and talks like a demagogue…
I’m following the story about how the Trump admin is trying to obtain New York Times reporters’ records to see who told them about the issues with Trump’s new Qatari jet.
We need to push back hard and protect the freedom of the press.
We've made a lot of progress since the Seneca Falls Convention, like Title IX!
But we can’t just rely on a future administration or Congress choosing not to reverse it, as we’ve seen with abortion rights.
We need an Equal Rights Amendment to protect against gender-based discrimination forever.
While we’re not out of the woods yet, this is welcome news.
This merger would force prices up, bring wages down, and lead to people losing jobs – all to bring TikTok, CNN, and CBS under one roof.
Perhaps Paramount CEO David Ellison can't wine and dine his way through this one after all.
