Kseniia Petrova is a university medical researcher and Putin critic.
Upon returning to the US, CBP detained her.
I'm urging Sec. Kristi Noem and ICE to release Kseniia while her asylum claim is pending and ensure she is not deported to Russia – where she risks persecution.

There's an important strategy behind Donald Trump's constant firehose of falsehoods.
And it comes straight from the dictator's playbook.
Let's talk about the lies.
youtu.be/HKYdVSGDIhY
Prices are up.
The market is down.
401k’s are in the tank.
Social Security and Medicare are under attack.
Donald Trump has broken every campaign promise he made – except one.
Tax cuts for billionaires. Arriving right on schedule.
@padilla.senate.gov and I caught up with Californians in D.C. to hear more about the issues affecting all of us.
Prices are soaring, your 401k is in the tank, Social Security phone lines are hours long.
Instead of addressing any of that – this administration is picking a fight with Denmark.
Like any aspiring autocrat, Trump is working to suppress any opposition. Central to that effort is quashing oversight and transparency.
I'm joining @blumenthal.senate.gov on a bill that will expand whistleblower protections – especially for public servants in our intelligence community and the FBI.
A lot of people learned the name "Steve Witkoff" this week. But... who exactly is he?
Let's talk Trump's top foreign policy advisor, the Kremlin, and the ham & cheese sandwich heard 'round the world.

@padilla.senate.gov and I hosted dozens of Californians for coffee in the Capitol today.
Hearing questions, addressing concerns, and talking about how we can work together. So proud to represent this big beautiful state.
Defend yourself.
For God’s sake,
The lesson from this whole Signalgate catastrophe?
This administration will never, ever take responsibility for their mistakes, even when they endanger people. Especially when they endanger people.
And it's the American people who will suffer.
This hasn’t aged well.
Donald Trump just got handed more bad news in court, in what may be the single most important case.
Let's talk about it.
youtu.be/GxoSnSqfF48?...
Why were senior Trump administration officials using Signal in foreign countries to communicate about sensitive national security matters?
We need answers and accountability. Urgently.
I pressed Donald Trump's nominee for Assistant Attorney General for National Security about Signalgate.
His responses were a disgraceful - and unsuccessful - effort to dodge. Watch for yourself:

As a former chair of the House Intelligence Committee, a few things leap out at me in reading the full Signalgate text chain:
open.substack.com/pub/schiffno...
In the last day, Trump said he may set up a fund for those convicted of Jan 6 crimes.
Issued an executive order making it harder to vote.
And declassified documents in Crossfire Hurricane.
The common thread? An attempt to distract from Signalgate.
Don’t fall for it.
Signalgate is a colossal f*ck up – even by the Trump Administration’s standards.
Let's talk about this latest national security nightmare.
youtu.be/Iuu5Hr8GTuE?...
1. Call it what you will, detailed military strike plans were discussed.
2. If such plans were not classified, that is a separate security failure.
3. If that guidance allows such use of a commercial app, that is yet another serious national security failure.
Schools, families, our most vulnerable students — no one is spared from the Trump Administration’s illegal actions attacking the Department of Education.
I am leading the Senate resolution to protect our students from these destructive cuts to their education.
