You do not go to war by having a press conference. It's on the President to show Congress and the American people that there is a real justification and endgame. Trump's done none of that. This war should end TODAY.
As we mourn the passing of these heroes, we must remember our commitment to honor them not only with words but by supporting the families they leave behind. The families and friends of Capt. Savino are in my thoughts during this difficult time.
I also want to express my sincerest condolences to the family and loved ones of Capt. Savino and join them in mourning her loss. I, of course, also extend my condolences to the families and loved ones of the other five brave Air Force Airmen we lost in this tragic incident.
I am heartbroken to learn about the passing of Capt. Ariana G. Savino from Washington state. I am deeply grateful for her courage and sacrifice in service to our country. Remarkable women like Capt. Savino represent the absolute best of our state and country.
From raising the minimum wage to making it easier to unionize, I rank the pro-worker policies I’m fighting to pass with Miranda—an @seiu775.org member from Moses Lake. Watch ⬇️
Sneakers have gotten me pretty far... fighting for child care, helping pass the Affordable Care Act, forcing Trump to sign a bill that completely rejected his budget request... We need more moms in tennis shoes in government—and less crooks in dress shoes. 👟👟
KILMEADE: Is it true you're telling your whole cabinet to wear the same shoes, these Florsheim shoes? TRUMP: When they tell me they have a problem, I say, 'let me get you a pair of shoes.' It seems to work out well. Now they look all spiffy & nice. I never liked cabinet members walking in sneakers.
How long do Republicans want Americans to pay more and sacrifice for Trump's war of choice? How much do they think is an acceptable cost? Lower costs and no new wars. The President should end this war immediately.
Trump & Republicans made the largest cuts to health care in American history so that they could dole out tax breaks to billionaires and blow billions on another war in the Middle East. For Republicans, there's always money for war and the super-rich—but never money for you.
Democrats tried to fund: ➡️TSA ➡️Cyber defense ➡️Coast Guard ➡️FEMA ➡️Everything at DHS but ICE & Border Patrol Republicans blocked every single bill. Why? They want to give ICE & CBP more money without basic reforms. Not on my watch.
In 24 hours, Republicans have blocked FIVE attempts from Democrats to fund TSA, FEMA, our cyber defenses, & Coast Guard while talks continue to rein in ICE & Border Patrol. Republicans are holding TSA agents' paychecks hostage so they can give more $ to ICE, with no reforms.
My new bill to ensure basic wage and overtime protections for home care workers is just the start. I'll keep fighting to pass major pro-worker policies like: ✅raising the minimum wage ✅national paid leave ✅affordable child care ✅the PRO Act.
Instead of building on the most basic wage rights for home care workers, Trump wants to tear them down. I'm fighting back with a new bill to make sure the people who do the important work of home and domestic care get AT LEAST the same basic protections as other workers.
Trump and Secretary Hegseth cannot blame anyone else for the bombing of an Iranian elementary school. They need to take responsibility and make sure it never happens again. This is a horrific tragedy and a deep moral stain on our history. There must be accountability.
Sen. Murray: "I'm just sickened by this. To go into this war unprepared, to use outdated data, and to have this horrific thing happen where children were killed in a school sends a horrible message to those that are in a war with us and to our own constituents about what America's values are."
Elon and his goons at DOGE broke our government from the inside out and rifled through sensitive data they had no business being near. And now, there are serious allegations that ex-employees stole it to use for their own purposes. Congress should throw the book at these crooks.
DHS agents killed American citizens in cold blood. They are terrorizing communities. Detaining and deporting CITIZENS. Democrats are just asking for basic accountability and reforms. And what is the Republican response? "Cry about it."
Republicans are trying to BAN medication abortion in all 50 states. They want to force women to give birth no matter the circumstances. Let me be clear: I'll be fighting to kill this bill. American women deserve full reproductive freedom and nothing less.
Stephen Miller is not above the Constitution. Trump is not a king who can sic an army of masked thugs on whatever city he wants to punish next. The American people are demanding reforms for ICE & CBP agents NOW.
