Todd Blanche oversaw the disastrous rollout of the Epstein files and led a redaction process that focused more on protecting President Trump than delivering justice for Jeffrey Epstein’s victims. The AG should defend victims, the American people, and the Constitution, not just one man.
Trump and Republicans told women abortion should be “left to the states.” Now they’re advancing Todd Blanche’s nomination, who wants it banned in every single one. Don’t listen to what they say—watch what they do.
UNEARTHED AUDIO: Todd Blanche, Trump's nominee for Attorney General, is working to ban abortion in "every single state." Republicans in the Senate just voted to advance Blanche's nomination out of committee.
Blanche presided over one of the most corrupt actions of the most corrupt administration in history—its $1.8 billion weaponization slush fund to pay off J6 cop beaters and reward his political supporters. He’s not fit to be the nation’s top law enforcement official. That’s why I voted against him.
Republicans are advancing Todd Blanche to be AG after he tried to implement the Trump administration’s extremely unpopular anti-weaponization fund. Sen. @coons.senate.gov: It “might be the most brazenly corrupt and unethical thing this administration has attempted.”
Every dollar spent on Trump’s disastrous war in Iran is money that could be lowering health care costs, feeding our children, and supporting families here at home. What else could we have gotten for the tens of billions of dollars this war of choice has cost?
An alarming new report shows that the average Delaware household has paid more than $3,000 extra since President Trump took office. You deserve an economy that works for you. Instead, you're paying the price for Trump's failed agenda.
Once again, Trump can find $25 billion for a vanity project to spruce up an airport for his lobbyist buddies, but he can't find a dime to help Delawareans with the cost of living.
FIRST ON CBS: President Trump has drafted plans for upcoming renovations at Washington Dulles International Airport, sources say.
I try to meet with every cabinet-level nominee as a courtesy, including Acting AG Todd Blanche. He still can’t explain his mishandling of the Epstein files or his refusal to fully shut down President Trump’s billion-dollar weaponization slush fund, and I’m still a no on his confirmation.
Social Security is not a handout. You paid into it with every paycheck, and you shouldn't get a dime less than what you're owed. I’ll always fight to protect the benefits you earned.
Trump's war in Iran is back on, so gas prices are going back up. Delawareans are paying upwards of $4 a gallon as a consequence of Trump’s senseless and costly war.
What will Trump's latest set of tariffs cost you? $1,100 every year you could be spending on gas, groceries, or doctors' visits instead.
The ROAD to Housing Act includes my bipartisan bill to help more families turn a housing voucher into a home. We made real, bipartisan progress to make housing more affordable, but @warren.senate.gov is right: we can't stop now.
The American economy is strongest when it rewards work, supports small businesses, and gives every family a fair shot at getting ahead.
Trump's disastrous war in the Middle East has weakened our security and somehow given Iran more leverage. It's time for the administration to come clean with the American people about what we're doing in Iran and how this is going to end.
The Endangered Species Act helped bring the bald eagle back from the brink. Now President Trump is stripping automatic protections from threatened species to clear the way for drilling, mining, and development. Once a species is gone, it is gone forever. time.com/article/2026...
How Trump’s Policy Change Could Lead to More Plant and Animal Extinctions
The Interior Department’s Fish and Wildlife Service revised regulations implementing the Endangered Species Act. Conservationists warn the changes could put vulnerable species at greater risk.

Private prison companies are receiving billions of taxpayer dollars to carry out Trump’s cruel immigration agenda, and they're spending that money on employees who allegedly shot an American protestor. This system needs real reform and oversight.
An ICE protester was just shot outside of a detention facility in Colorado. This is the third ICE shooting in the last 10 days.
Pete Hegseth is more focused on winning culture wars than combating real threats to our troops, and 18 American servicemembers are dead. Now he’s asking for $87 billion in supplemental funding when he has no plan for Iran and no answer on counter-drone defenses.
The biggest housing bill in 30 years is now law—and it includes my bipartisan bill with Senator Kevin Cramer to cut red tape, bring more landlords into the Housing Choice Voucher program, and help more Delaware families turn a voucher into a home.
The American people deserve honesty about the costs of this war. The Pentagon’s unwillingness to provide that to us should alarm us all.
Trump is locking immigrants with no criminal record in camps designed to operate “as cheaply and brutally as possible.” They are denied medicine, isolated, and pressured to self-deport. Don’t look away from what this administration is doing.
Trump ran his campaign on lowering grocery costs. Since taking office, beef is up 22%, orange juice is up 26%, bread is up 5%, and chicken is up 2%. Just one more broken promise from an administration full of them.
South Korea is a key ally and partner, and strong partnerships require fair treatment for U.S. companies. I urge the Korean government to resolve this issue and work with the U.S. to strengthen our trade and investment ties.
Todd Blanche’s continued disrespect of those who Jeffrey Epstein preyed upon is appalling. He belongs nowhere near the Department of Justice, let alone running it.
Epstein survivor Liz Stein on her meeting with Acting AG Todd Blanche: "It was demoralizing, to say the very least. He didn't give transparent answers. He didn't give us any promises as far as following up on investigative leads. He had no real answers for the Ghislaine Maxwell transfer"
A year ago, Republicans made the largest SNAP cut in history. Since then, thousands of people in Delaware and 4 million Americans are no longer getting food assistance. Trump’s “America First” agenda puts billionaires first and leaves kids hungry. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...
SNAP Tracker: People Are Losing Food Assistance as the Republican Megabill Is Implemented
SNAP participation nationwide fell by more than 4 million people (nearly 10 percent) between the law’s July 2025 enactment and March 2026, based on the latest month of data.

Sen. COONS: How many January 6th rioters were convicted of assaulting law enforcement officers? Blanche: ~120. Coons: 200+. How many had their sentences commuted or were pardoned? Blanche: Every one. Coons: The pardons are a shameful slap in the face to law enforcement.
Another senseless and unnecessary killing by unaccountable ICE agents, this time in Maine. Republicans cannot stand by as ICE agents continue to break their own rules and shoot and kill another person.
Medicare gives millions of Americans the care, security, and peace of mind they deserve. For seniors who have spent a lifetime paying for it, Medicare means well-deserved comfort and dignity.
