Each year, scammers steal billions of dollars and ruin victims’ lives. That's why I'm leading a comprehensive effort to combat criminal scams. I sat down with @frontlinepbs and @AP in their new documentary, Scammed, to discuss this work and how both the public and private (cont in image...)

More than $400 million meant for the Secret Service has been diverted to White House construction projects, including President Trump’s new ballroom. I’m pressing for answers on what that means for the agency’s ability to protect our leaders and combat scams and other (cont in image...)
