Trump Admin officials should not profit off war & death. But as prediction market betting spreads, the CFTC is letting insiders anonymously profit from wagers placed before public news of U.S. military actions, creating a dangerous breeding ground for corruption & nat’l sec risks.

Ethan Shorey, chief editor of The Valley Breeze, announced Wednesday he’s stepping down after 20 years with the publication. “It has been the honor of my life reporting news that matters to people where they (and I) live,” he said on social media.

Pres. Trump launched a preemptive, costly war without public support or Congressional approval. Now every member of Congress must debate & vote on whether they want to co-sign Trump’s war of choice with Iran. I’m for the bipartisan Kaine-Paul resolution & against Trump’s unauthorized war.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govMar 3(source)
Pres. Trump preemptively launched war on Iran w/ no plan to evacuate Americans in harm’s way. While other countries have flown their people home, many Americans are now stranded. U.S. citizens in the region should register at step.state.gov. RIers in need may contact my office for assistance.

Kicking off Women’s History Month with the Women’s Fund of RI & inspiring women leaders who are clearing the path for progress & a brighter future for future generations. Special thanks to all of our terrific panelists today for the incredible insights & stories they shared.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 27(source)
Trump alone slammed a $130 billion tariff tax on us. He lost in court. Now it’s Time for him to give RIers their money back. @democrats.senate.gov are working to get families & small businesses the refunds they deserve.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 27(source)
Pres. Trump’s saber-rattling for war with Iran is taking the country down a dangerous path without a clear strategy or endgame. And that puts U.S. national security at considerable risk.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 27(source)
It’s taken historic effort to dig out from the historic Blizzard of ’26. Grateful for municipal & state workers, first responders, RI National Guard, servicemembers & crews from other states, neighbors helping neighbors, and all who have worked hard & are helping RI get back up and running.
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 25(source)
Too often, Republicans have refused to provide a check on Trump’s abuses of power & failed policies. That must end. I won’t stop working across the aisle to find consensus, clear the path for progress, & deliver for RI and our communities. 3/3
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 25(source)
The reality is: On the economy, tariffs, immigration, health care, & foreign policy, Pres. Trump’s policies are deeply unpopular. Republicans must join Dems to listen to Americans, bring down costs, & make U.S. stronger, healthier, & more prosperous. 2/3
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 25(source)
Pres. Trump has led the state of our union into a state of disrepair. I’m focused on lowering costs, strengthening education & nat’l security, ending the chaos, & ensuring RIers can afford health care, rent, energy bills, and a home. I invite the president to join me. 1/3
U.S. Senator Jack Reed@reed.senate.govFeb 24(source)
If President Trump has nothing to hide in the Epstein Files, why is his Admin apparently still withholding critical documents that mention his name? Survivors deserve justice. The American people deserve to see the evidence. Abusers must be held accountable.
