It’s been a fascinating news day watching the spin. Here are my hot takes on the news of the day, the latest on Venezuela, and the implications for global security and the American people ⬇️

Overnight the President ordered the invasion of Venezuela and capture of its President. While Maduro clearly is a corrupt and illegitimate thug who oversaw the destabilization and suffering of millions, the fact remains that the U.S. President is acting on authority he does not have. ⬇️
As we step into 2026 we’re sharing the stories we love. Today, we’re sharing the story of NM State Senator Cindy Nava—who is the 1st former DACA recipient in the U.S. to be elected to the State House. Her story and service are inspiring and we’re so grateful to be in the fight alongside la Senadora!
The Martineztown neighborhood is one of the oldest and most iconic neighborhoods in Burque. Right in the heart of downtown, many families have been here for generations. Thank you to everyone who joined us to share your stories and vision for the community. We are so grateful! ❤️
Happy New Year!! Here’s to a bright and beautiful 2026!! 🎉🎊🌟
Happy New Year! It’s been a big, chaotic, and amazing year and every day I am so grateful to represent NM-01 in Congress.
As we look forward to 2026, I want to say THANK YOU to each and every one of you. Our work is just beginning. We are so ready to step into the New Year! Let’s do this! 🎉
Happy Kwanzaa and many blessings to you and yours! To all those celebrating—may the coming days bring peace, purpose, love, joy, strength, unity and a celebration of community! ❤️🖤💚💛
Just taking a moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holidays from New Mexico! Wishing you all a bright and joyful day!!🎄❤️
Whether you call them luminarias or faralitos (we see you in el Norte)—and whether you eat red or green (red, obviously! 🌶️)—it’s one of our favorite times of year here in Albuquerque. And, we want to wish you a very Merry Christmas from Old Town, from our family to yours! 🎄🌟
The cover-up and level of incompetence is truly astounding.
Perjury. Contempt of Congress. Lying to the public. It’s all there in the files.
Documents show that federal investigators knew of at least 10 co-conspirators.
Why were they never prosecuted? Why is the Admin shielding their names? Why did they lie to Congress? We will get to the bottom of this.

This is YOUR Nation’s Capitol. While Donald Trump is trying to demolish and remodel the White House and other federal buildings—we’re here to say hands off our federal buildings with a new bill this week to protect them.
That’s why I introduced the Federal Facilities Protection and Oversight Act.
Amazing things are happening at the ABQ BioPark! Just yesterday, the first Mexican Gray Wolves were brought into a new conservation facility, made specifically to help their population grow and thrive! The Endangered Species Act is so important. We must protect wildlife like the Mexican Gray Wolves.
Proud to stand with my friend Sen Kim and fight for the Presidential Management Fellows program! PMF helped launch both of our journeys in public service. But Trump is trying to end the program. We need our best and brightest in public service, and we’re going to make sure PMF is protected in law!
The Epstein Files have dropped. I’m back in Albuquerque. And here’s what’s going on with these files. ⬇️
