Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) told "Face The Nation" that she expects Mike Waltz to have a "brutal hearing" for U.N. ambassador after his surprise departure last week from his post as President Trump's national security adviser. https://cbsn.ws/44RpcRh
Sen. Tammy Duckworth says Mike Waltz will have a "brutal hearing" for U.N. ambassador
Sen. Tammy Duckworth said Sunday that she expects Mike Waltz to have a "brutal hearing" for U.N. ambassador after his surprise departure as national security adviser.

Mike Waltz is failing up.

He’s being rewarded for an egregious national security breach by being tapped for UN Ambassador—a slap in the face to the troops he put in greater danger with SignalGate.

I’ll be voting no.

The lethal high-powered rifles I carried during my military service were designed for war.   Not our streets. Not our neighborhoods. Certainly not our schools.   Senate Democrats introduced legislation to revive the nationwide assault weapons ban.   It’s long overdue.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govMay 1(source)
Took long enough. Mike Waltz knowingly made an unclassified chain to discuss classified matters. But of all the idiots in that chat, Hegseth is the biggest security risk of all—he leaked the info that put our troops in greater danger. Fire and investigate them all. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-m...
Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz and his deputy to leave posts in White House
President Trump's national security adviser Mike Waltz and deputy Alex Wong are leaving the White House, multiple sources tell CBS News.

Happy Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! No matter what Trump or Hegseth say, diversity *is* our greatest strength—and our AANHPI communities have proven that time and again. AANHPI stories are American stories. Always have been.

SNAP programs create 200,000 jobs and billions in wages—along with putting food on the table for millions. Republicans' budget plans to eliminate this, putting people out of work and taking food out of families' mouths so they can fund billionaire tax breaks. Beyond cruel.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 29(source)
This is how you make America sicker, not healthier. Trump is cancelling almost a BILLION dollars in grants to clean up poisonous pollution, get rid of lead in drinking water and other projects that help protect the health of our families. Despicable. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
The EPA is canceling almost 800 environmental justice grants, court filing reveals
The Environmental Protection Agency acknowledged in a court filing that it plans to terminate 781 grants, almost twice the number previously reported.

Trump’s first 100 days:   DOGE cuts. Fired Veterans. SignalGate. Trade wars. Higher grocery bills. Social Security benefits at risk. Deported citizens. Economy tanked.   This is no golden age for America.   It's a shitshow.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 29(source)
Absolutely awful. Devastated for the four who were killed by a car crash at an after school camp in Chatham. Thank you to IL State Police and all of the first responders on the ground who responded quickly to the scene. My heart is with the entire Chatham community, the victims and their families.
Car crashes into Illinois after-school camp, killing 4
The crash happened at about 3:20 p.m. at YNOT Outdoors Summer and After School Camp, located at 301 Breckenridge Road.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 28(source)
Thanks to Trump, it’s getting harder to afford the basics—groceries, gas and the list goes on.

That’s what happens when leaders protect billionaires and leave working families with the bill.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 28(source)
Unsurprising that the two billionaires who do nothing but plot how they can further enrich themselves...   Are gutting the agency that helps millions of Americans give back to their communities.   Democrats are pushing back. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
AmeriCorps shaped these lawmakers’ careers. They’re fighting to save it.
Politicians and civil servants who served in AmeriCorps argue that the Trump administration’s sharp cuts to the agency endanger the future of U.S. public service.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 27(source)
SNAP helps millions put food on the table while supporting local farmers and grocers. Our families and farmers are already feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs— And now Republicans want to gut this lifeline and take food out of children’s mouths to fund billionaire tax cuts. So much needless harm.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 27(source)
80 million Americans get health care through Medicaid. And instead of making the wealthy pay the taxes they owe, Republicans want to give them a big tax cut by gutting this basic needs program. They'll be ripping health care from seniors, new moms, kids and millions of others.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 27(source)
When Trump said he would consider deporting US citizens, he wasn’t joking. And he’s starting with American babies. If he can deport a single citizen without due process, he can do it to anyone. And if he comes for your baby, it won’t matter if you voted for him or not.

Trump’s tariffs are driving up grocery bills in Illinois. Bananas, rice, coffee—you name it. Middle-class Americans are paying more for basic necessities because of Trump's chaos.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 26(source)
While America’s skies are getting busier, DOGE has cut more than 300 jobs from the FAA, which is already stretched to its limits. Depriving the FAA of staff isn’t just inefficient—it’s dangerous. More delays. More cancellations. More risk for everyone flying.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 26(source)
Every single day this unqualified trainwreck stays in this job is another day our troops are at greater risk. Hegseth needs to be fired before these security breaches get someone killed. apnews.com/article/hegs...
Hegseth had an unsecured internet line set up in his office to connect to Signal, AP sources say
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had an internet connection that bypassed the Pentagon’s security protocols set up in his office to use the Signal messaging app on a personal computer.
Tammy Duckworth@duckworth.senate.govApr 25(source)
Disappearing people. Ignoring court orders. And now, arresting judges. This what dictators do to undermine the rule of law and consolidate their own power. It’s un-American, no matter what political party you support.
