Firing Kristi Noem is an important first step, but more must be done to rein in ICE. Republicans are still trying to push through DHS funding without including serious reforms to ICE.
I'm heading to the House floor now to vote against their DHS funding bill.

Last night, I left the classified briefing on Trump's war in Iran and heard nothing about a plan to meaningfully address Iran's nuclear capabilities.
Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium should be the administration's primary focus. That is clearly not the case.
Last weekend, I hosted a Black History Month Roundtable to lift up important Black leaders in our community, reflect on their lived experiences and contributions, and discuss current challenges and opportunities for the future.

I hope the upcoming classified briefing brings greater clarity on Iran's highly enriched uranium stockpile. The continued nuclear threat from Iran cannot be ignored.
Back in June, Congress did not receive a clear answer from the Trump administration about the status of Iran’s stockpile of weapons-usable enriched uranium. Now, after these strikes, nuclear negotiations with Iran have effectively collapsed.
Sending my deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of the three U.S. servicemembers killed, and hoping for the swift recovery of those injured.
My statement on the Iran strikes.
As Congress' sole PhD physicist, I said Iran likely still had its 60% enriched uranium.
Now, the administration has walked back its claims and acknowledges Iran remains well within reach of a nuclear weapon.
After U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites last June, the Trump administration claimed Iran’s nuclear capabilities were eliminated. But they did not confirm the destruction of the materials needed to build an actual nuclear weapon.
It looks likely that Trump is going to have to find a way to pay U.S. businesses and consumers back for the illegal tariffs he has collected.
As a start, I would suggest rescinding the $70 billion being wasted on ICE.
Like last year, I gave myself 5 bald-faced lies before I walked out of Trump’s joint address.
Less than one hour into his speech, I’m out.
Trump’s tariffs have killed manufacturing employment and driven up costs for Americans. Everybody seems to know that but Trump. #SOTU
Tax cuts for Trump’s billionaire donors at the expense of health care for working Americans. That’s what Republicans are cheering for. #SOTU
Trump: *lie*
Republicans: *round of applause*

I'm about to sit down for the State of the Union address. People like my guest Suzanne know how our nation's health care crisis is impacting Americans across the country.
Under Republican control, it has only gotten worse.
Today marks 4 years since the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
I stand with the Ukrainian people in their defense of their democracy and their freedom. The United States must continue to do all that it can to ensure Ukraine prevails and that Putin is held accountable for his unprovoked aggression.

My guest to the State of the Union address is Suzanne Hoban. She runs the Family Health Partnership Clinic and provides care to uninsured adults.
As our nation's health care crisis worsens under Republican leadership, we should be listening to people like Suzanne who are on the frontlines.
