Since Kash Patel took charge of the FBI, 100s of agents have left & respected career officers have been allegedly forced out for political reasons. When I questioned him at today’s @judiciarydems.senate.gov hearing I made my concern clear: he’s compromised the FBI's ability to keep us safe.

Netanyahu’s ground invasion of Gaza City is a dangerous mistake that will worsen the tragic humanitarian crisis in Gaza. I will always stand for Israel’s right to self-defense, but this move risks 1000s of lives and only makes the return of hostages held by Hamas and a ceasefire harder to achieve.
President Trump and his family are pocketing billions while working families’ wage continue to shrink. This is corrupt, it’s wrong, and it’s a deep disservice to American taxpayers. www.vox.com/politics/460...
I'm about to question FBI Director Kash Patel in our @judiciarydems.senate.gov Committee hearing regarding his politicization of the agency and the recent firings of senior officials. Tune in below.

Trump and Vance repeatedly promised last year they’d be the most “pro-free speech administration in history.”
But if you’re only willing to stand up for speech you agree with, you don’t care about free speech at all.
Why is Trump making it easier for Russia to spread fake news and interfere in elections? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/b...
Now more than ever, we need the ability to see our opponents as people. My friend and mentor, Senator Johnny Isakson, started the tradition of an annual bipartisan Senate BBQ to break bread and build relationships across the aisle. Proud to carry on his legacy with Senator Warnock last week.
Meta prioritized engagement over safety—and then tried to silence employees speaking out to protect children from harm. This is unacceptable.
Israel’s strike on Qatar doesn’t advance anyone’s interests. It simply makes clear that Netanyahu is not interested in negotiations.
My prayers are with Charlie’s wife Erika and his two young children as they carry this grief and mourn this horrifying loss.
I grew up during a time in our country when political violence became shockingly routine. America cannot backslide once again into that dark era.
I’m praying for Charlie Kirk and the Utah Valley University students in attendance at today’s event and am glad the shooter is in custody. This type of despicable act has no place on our college campuses or anywhere in America.
Let me be clear: provocations by Russia into NATO airspace should not be tolerated by the US or any of our allies, and Congress’ commitment to our Article 5 obligation is ironclad.
The White House needs to change its strategy and make that commitment clear to Putin, too.
There’s a fundamental imbalance when it comes to big tech protecting public safety: their incentives prioritize making money over keeping our kids safe. We need legislation that balances the scales.
In just a few moments, I’ll be joining a @judiciarydems.senate.gov hearing to hear testimony that Meta buried research showing children were being harmed on its platforms. Our kids deserve protection, and Meta has a responsibility to put safety first.
Straightforward questions about Trump weakening us at home and abroad deserve simple answers.
The Epstein files aren't “irrelevant,” and they're not a “hoax.” Thanks to the bravery of these survivors, the truth will come out—but the harm Trump is causing to them along the way will last.
Having children is already expensive – diapers, car seats, a crib, school supplies.
Trump's tariffs are only making these necessities more expensive.
Reposted bySenator Chris Coons
Sen. Chris @Coons.senate.gov says Trump's National Guard deployment in DC is "an incredibly inefficient and expensive way to deal with crime."
"There's a performative aspect of this," he adds. "There's an extent to which he's using American troops as political pawns."
September is #SuicidePreventionMonth. Check in on those around you—even those you think don't need it. I encourage you to support others, raise awareness and act with empathy.
