Mr. Patel is now saying there is "no credible information" that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked young women to anyone other than… himself. And that the Epstein client list has only one name, Epstein. No one is buying that.
Kash Patel testified he did not discipline or terminate FBI employees because of their assignment to specific cases involving the President, alone. When I asked him if that meant they were terminated in part for work on those cases, he refused to give a straight answer. Watch:
Kash Patel came to the Senate today not to do his job, but to save his job. The hard-working men and women of the FBI deserve a Director who isn’t just performing for an audience of one.
Donald Trump just blew up another boat in the middle of the ocean with no legal justification. I'm drafting a resolution and forcing a vote to reclaim Congress’s power to declare war. Before Trump’s actions provoke one.
Democracy doesn’t disappear overnight – it is vanishes day by day, one lawless act after another. Oversized portraits on government buildings may look like vanity. But they are also a warning. We must take it seriously.
Let’s be clear: this is not normal. It’s not lawful. And it’s not democratic. It’s propaganda – paid for with your money. We are demanding answers, accountability, and a full halt to this abuse of taxpayer funds.
This is not only a waste of taxpayer dollars. It’s also an authoritarian tactic. Dictators from Stalin to Saddam plastered their images on government buildings to demonstrate power. Now, the Trump Administration is doing the same in Washington.
And my office uncovered a never-before-reported contract for a banner at HHS that goes even further – specifying that the propaganda banners should “last for 4 years.” In other words: until the end of Trump’s term.
Since 1951, federal law has explicitly prohibited using taxpayer funds for propaganda and self-aggrandizement. This isn’t a gray area. It’s illegal. And it violates the Constitution’s command that no funds leave the Treasury except as appropriated by Congress.
These aren’t informational signs. They don’t explain programs, benefits, or public services. They are giant portraits of the President. They look like they're straight out of North Korea. And they are the textbook definition of propaganda.
In just four months, three federal agencies have paid for massive political banners with your tax dollars: - USDA: ~$16,400 - Dept. of Labor: ~$6,000 - HHS: ~$34,000 That’s at least $50,000 in taxpayer money for Trump propaganda.
By now, you’ve probably seen these propaganda banners sprouting up on federal buildings. We’ve uncovered how much these banners cost through never-before-seen documents. And why they’re illegal: (Thread 🧵)
Big night for The Pitt and The Studio at The Emmys. Love to see California-based productions taking home wins – more proof that the Golden State remains the gold standard for film production.
Read every word of this. Millions of Californians can now be profiled by the color of their skin and the language they speak, thanks to the Supreme Court. This is not the slippery slope. We are already on the slide towards dictatorship.
Donald Trump is coming after me for the same reason he's gone after colleges, law firms, media organizations and more. Like a dictator, he wants to silence and intimidate his opposition. I’m doing just what I urge others to do. Fighting back.
