Gas is over $6 bucks a gallon in parts of California. Instead of lowering prices, President Trump is spending a billion dollars a day on war with no mission and no end in sight. What happened to America First?

We are going to FLIP the House.

45 minutes after we filed contempt charges against Pam Bondi for illegally defying our subpoena, Oversight Republicans finally announce a date for her testimony. Survivors deserve justice, and we will do whatever it takes to get to the truth.

Thank you and congratulations to our spring interns and fellows who are wrapping up their time in DC. Your contributions to the Oversight Committee and my congressional office are truly invaluable. Wishing you the best of luck in your future endeavors!

Donald Trump and his family are stealing your wealth and your hard-earned labor. It is pure corruption, and Oversight Democrats won’t rest until we hold them all accountable.

The Artemis II mission was so hopeful to watch. Incredible work by NASA and the courageous Astronauts and engineers who made this possible. Amazing to witness. 🌎

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!

If Melania Trump actually wants to help in our Epstein investigation, she should demand that her husband release the rest of the files and ensure Pam Bondi testifies. Survivors deserve justice.

There is no place in our country or the Democratic Party for those who abuse women and girls. I stand with the courageous survivor who shared her story. Congressman Swalwell must leave the Governor’s race immediately.

If Former Attorney General Pam Bondi does not come in to testify, we will begin contempt charges in the Congress.

Donald Trump has lost his mind, and his threats to wipe out the Iranian people should be taken seriously. He’s out of control and his cabinet and those around him must be loyal to the Constitution and invoke the 25th Amendment. He must be removed.

@robertgarcia.house.gov: Pam Bondi's subpoena "does apply. The subpoena we put in place does not have any mention of whether she's AG or not. The subpoena is for Pam Bondi... She legally is required to appear before the Oversight Committee on April 14."

Rep. Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.house.govApr 3(source)

We’re glad to see Pam Bondi go, but we still need accountability. The Oversight Committee still wants to talk to her, and we expect to see her on April 14th.

Our bipartisan subpoena requires Pam Bondi to appear before our Committee, whether she's Attorney General or not. She has an opportunity now to give us the full truth about the Epstein files, and we look forward to her testimony.

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialMar 17(source)

No more lies. No more cover-ups. Pam Bondi must now come before our committee and testify under oath. We have questions.

Spent the weeknd in Orange County with the OC Young Dems celebrating our progressive movement and visiting voters across Newport Beach. Let’s continue to stand together against government corruption. Onward!

Robert Garcia@robertgarcia.bsky.socialMar 12(source)

Hyping up Long Beach Democrats to support our efforts to FLIP the HOUSE BLUE. And once we lead the Oversight Committee we are going to hold this President and his administration accountable. Let’s go!

The fight over the Epstein files is escalating after the DOJ admitted documents were mistakenly withheld. This comes as the House Oversight Committee votes to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi in its probe. Top Oversight Democrat @robertgarcia.bsky.social joins The Weeknight to discuss.

Here’s the thing. When you commit crimes and engage in corruption, leaving your job to do another doesn’t absolve you of your crimes. Accountability and justice are just around the corner.
