Bill Pulte has already proven himself willing to act as a Trump puppet, which is why Trump wants to put him in charge of our nation’s intelligence. The Intelligence Community exists to protect the American people—not to serve as another instrument of presidential retribution.
That's why the first amendment I will offer on the GOP reconciliation bill will be to ban it permanently AND revoke the Trump family’s free rein to commit tax fraud.
The only way to ensure Trump’s $2B MAGA slush fund never sees the light of day is to abolish it by law. We will not trust the word of the corrupt president who stands to benefit the most from it.
Secretary Rubio is testifying right now, and he has a lot to answer for—especially on Trump's war in Iran Democrats are demanding answers on behalf of our troops in harm's way, their families, and the Americans across the country who are paying the cost We must bring an end to this war immediately
Kaine to Rubio: "By not sharing the [Iran] legal opinion with the Article 1 oversight branch, you give us the opinion there's something you don't want us to see. Could you use your influence as the president's chief national security adviser & secretary of state to share the opinion with Congress?"
Bill Pulte is a partisan thug with no experience in intelligence. He is another unqualified Trump appointee that will make our country less safe. And you won’t hear a word from the Republicans who claim to care about national security.
BREAKING: Trump just appointed Bill Pulte, the man who tried to take down Letitia James and Lisa Cook with bogus mortgage fraud claims, to be acting Director of National Intelligence.
Trump says he's in “no hurry” to end the war in Iran. No hurry? Tell that to our troops in harm’s way. Tell that to their families. Tell that to the Americans getting crushed by record gas prices at the pump. We will not stop fighting to end this war once and for all.
All Trump cares about is his golden ballroom, putting his name on a massive arch, slapping his face on $250 dollar bills, and lining his pockets with taxpayer dollars. None of that lowers costs or helps working families.
Senate Democrats will push legislation to ban Trump's corrupt MAGA slush fund and ensure that no president can ever do this again. We will make sure that it's dead and can't be revived—just like we did with Trump's ballroom.

DAILY NEWS Schumer vows to block Trump's $1.8B weaponization' fund
NBC NEWS Chuck Schumer lays out Democrats' plan to fight Trump's 'anti-weaponization' fund in the Senate
CNBC Schumer says Democrats will force Senate votes to block Trump's DOJ 'lawfare' fund
Pete Hegseth isn’t just making bad decisions about war. Now, he’s blocking promotions of women and minority officers who have been standout leaders and exceptional members of our military. This is noxious, corrosive to building our best military fighting force, and wrong.
Breaking News: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth blocked the promotions of at least seven Navy officers in a move that targeted women and minority officers.
If Trump and Republicans are truly abandoning this corrupt scheme, they should have zero problem banning it in law. This week, Senate Democrats will push legislation to ban this slush fund and ensure no president can ever do this again. Trump’s word is nowhere near enough.
The Trump administration plans to drop its controversial $1.8 billion "weaponization" fund the president sought to compensate alleged victims of prosecutorial conduct under his predecessor, 2 senior administration officials told Axios.
Happy Pride Month! I have spent decades fighting for the rights of LGBTQ Americans. This month, let’s enthusiastically celebrate all that they have contributed to New York and our country.
Of all Trump’s corrupt schemes, his insurrectionist slush fund is one of the most depraved. This ruling is an important win—but the fight is not over. We’ll keep fighting in the courts & in Congress to make sure this $2B giveaway to cop beaters, criminals & MAGA cronies never sees the light of day.
A post from Kyle Griffin reads: Reuters: US JUDGE TEMPORARILY BLOCKS CREATION OF TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S $1.8 BILLION 'ANTI-WEAPONIZATION FUND' -COURT ORDER
Eid Mubarak! Wishing everyone celebrating, in New York around the world, a joyous Eid al-Adha. May this Eid bring time for reflection, peace, and blessings for all.
I heard from families, farmers, & butchers across Upstate NY on how beef monopolies are driving up prices. I’m leading @democrats.senate.gov in the Family Grocery & Farmer Relief Act to break up meatpacking monopolies & stop these unfair practices that rig the game against working families.
When even U.S. Senators are targeted, every American should understand: no one is safe from ICE’s abuses. It’s why I’m fighting tooth-and-nail against additional funds for Trump’s rogue police forces.
This Memorial Day, we remember America’s brave service members who sacrificed their lives to keep us safe. Our hearts are with Gold Star families across America—today and everyday.
Here is the reality facing families in Rockland County: ⛽ Gas is nearly $4.75 because of his war in Iran 🛒 20% higher grocery bills 🥦 175,000 NYers already kicked off SNAP  🏥 27,000 families in NY-17 are losing health care
Trump and Republicans are taking a break from trying to use taxpayer funds for his gold-plated ballroom and $1.8 billion MAGA slush fund to visit the Hudson Valley today.
