Grocery prices just hit a record high.
The unemployment rate is at its highest level in years.
58K manufacturing jobs gone because of Trump’s tariffs.
Crazy that the guy who bankrupted a casino doesn’t know how to fix the economy.
Credibility matters. Our word on human rights means nothing to China & others if we fail to practice what we preach here at home. America must lead by example, and show we stand for freedom of thought, religion, and conscience not just half way around the world—but half way down the block, too.
I won't mince words—today, Donald Trump made a death threat against his political opponents.
Here's my full statement on the President calling for the execution of Democratic Members of Congress:
Here’s the letter my colleagues and I sent to Secretary Rubio & Ambassador Huckabee urging them to fulfill their commitment to protecting American citizens like Mohammed abroad:
Israel must uphold its obligations under the Convention of the Rights of the Child and immediately move Mohammed to an appropriate medical facility, allow his family to visit, and let him come home!
Today, on the International Day of the Child, I call on Netanyahu to release 16-year-old American Mohammed Ibrahim from detention. For 9 months, Mohammed has suffered illness, malnourishment & potentially torture—and his family is increasingly worried he may not survive.
Unemployment is up. 58k manufacturing jobs lost. Grocery prices at record highs. These people are lying to your face. It’s unbelievable.
Welcome to Donald Trump’s America—where it’s fine to be a Nazi or in the KKK.
The President of the United States is openly calling for the execution of Democratic Members of Congress.
Where is the condemnation from Republicans over this blatant call for political violence?
We will not be intimidated.
Today, I heard from Israeli and Palestinian citizens about their efforts to co-create a safe, just, and shared future for their people. The U.S. government must be a partner in those efforts—not a yes-man to Netanyahu’s attempts to sabotage them.
Refusing to release the jobs report won’t make rising unemployment go away.
Refusing to release the Epstein Files won’t make whatever Trump did with his “terrific” friend Jeff go away.
You can only run from the truth for so long. Accountability is coming.

This is the exact excuse Trump & his cronies at the DOJ will use to justify any potential refusal to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
Release all the Files. Now. The American People will not stand for anything less than complete transparency.
Today I met with members of faith-based groups from @justiceucc.bsky.social who are working on peace-building in Colombian communities. The US has invested so much in Colombia’s future & we must support full implementation of the peace agreement.
Honored to attend the premiere of “Wisdom Happiness: A Heart-to-Heart with the Dalai Lama” with @nancypelosi69.bsky.social & Richard Gere. I’m forever inspired by the courage of His Holiness—and I'll always be an advocate for the human rights & dignity of the Tibetan people.
Jamal Khashoggi was a journalist—a human being with thoughts and feelings and a family and a future.
A Saudi prince didn’t like his viewpoint—so he had him brutally murdered and hacked to death.
Anyone who can put that aside for polite dinner conversation is sick in the head.
Here’s the list of guests who honored the killer crown prince of Saudi Arabia last night at our White House, including Elon Musk (Tesla) and Tim Cook (Apple), and more: www.businessinsider.com/white-house-...
As I said on the floor today, releasing the Epstein Files is not about politics. It’s about the survivors—girls as young as 11 years old who were systematically abused by rich & powerful men.
Tonight, I stood in solidarity with them & all survivors of sexual assault nationwide.
I’m glad the Senate swiftly passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. President Trump must immediately sign it into law & fully comply.
No excuses. No delays. Anything less is an insult to the survivors of Epstein’s heinous crimes & survivors of sexual assault nationwide.
MBS literally ordered his thugs to hack apart a @washingtonpost.com journalist with a bonesaw.
You are the company you keep!
I share Congressman Massie’s concerns. Trump knows he’s lost Congressional support for his Epstein Files coverup, so he’s illegally using his corrupt DOJ to stall & manufacture BS excuses to deny the American People full transparency.
