The past year has been the most frustrating since I first got to Congress. Not because the work is hard, it’s always hard, but because Republicans in charge have made it nearly impossible to do any work at all.

Democrats have spent months pushing basic ICE oversight. These are standard across law enforcement.
But House Republicans have refused to agree to any of this.
The public deserves to know why ICE should be the exception.
He’s not alone.
Cardinals across the country have said so. The Archbishop for the U.S. military said so on Easter Sunday. The U.S. bishops’ own doctrine committee has now rebuked Vance directly.
I hope you read this piece.
Then send it to every person of faith you know.
The pope Vance was lecturing is a scholar who led the Augustinian order for more than a decade. Vance claims Augustine as his personal hero.
Holquin walks through the long-standing rules the Church uses to judge whether a war is just, and he shows how the war with Iran fails every one of them.
Vance, a Catholic of seven years, stood on a Turning Point USA stage and told Pope Leo to “be careful when he talks about matters of theology.”
At that very moment, Leo was in Algeria, at the ruins of the ancient church where Augustine once served as bishop.
Monsignor Arthur Holquin has been a Catholic priest for fifty-two years, is a leader in our local community, and he just took JD Vance to the woodshed.
Here is what set him off:

So the FBI's priority list under Kash Patel is:
1. Investigate a journalist for reporting on the Director’s girlfriend
2. Sue The Atlantic for reporting on the Director’s drinking problem
3. Avoid arresting a single powerful man implicated in the Epstein files
Did I miss anything?
Rank-and-file agents get fired for this. Their boss sues the reporters who expose it.
Patel is dangerously unfit and cannot remain in his role.
The FBI has a zero-tolerance policy for alcohol abuse, and even the newest recruits are held to that strict standard.
Instead of owning his conduct or answering the questions raised by his own agents, Patel hit The Atlantic with a $250 million defamation suit.
Today would be a great day for Trump to fire Kash Patel.

Two decades ago, I started my career fighting for clean air, clean water, and a livable planet.
On this Earth Day, I’ll be honest with you: the fight has never been harder.

And while he torches the clean energy buildout here at home, China is racing ahead on solar, wind, batteries, and the supply chains that will define the next century.
Working families will pay for it twice, once at the meter and once when the jobs go overseas.

That’s because there is no emergency.
Only a president abusing his powers to pay back donors and punish industries he dislikes.
Trump is stamping “national security” on every giveaway to Big Oil and Big Coal while refusing to say what the actual security threat is.
In court, his administration cannot produce a single document explaining the supposed threats.
This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

These are standard across law enforcement. But House Republicans have refused to agree to any of this.

Here is the truth about President Trump’s tariff mess: the American people got stuck with the bill, and most of us will never see a penny back. 🧵
