In the 8 months since Trump launched his War on Iran: -Deaths: 9,000+, including 23 US troops -Military spending: $47B -Increase in gas prices: 30+% -Big Oil profits: $130B -Strait of Hormuz: still closed He's losing his own war of choice — and we're paying for it.

Today, I led 11 of my Senate colleagues in calling on House & Senate leadership to strip the upcoming defense bill of provisions that MANDATE defense & intelligence cooperation with Israel — including one advanced by Netanyahu himself.   This doesn’t make us safer, see why ⬇️

Tomorrow, the Senate will take a key vote on the $1.1 TRILLION defense bill. It not only fails to rein in Trump’s Iran war, it also has a provision touted by PM Netanyahu to MANDATE more U.S. defense cooperation with Israel. None of this is in our national security interests. I will vote NO.

Massie: "This is why I feel sorry somewhat for the lawyers at the WH. They come up with this tortured language so that maybe Hegseth won't get impeached, and then the president goes out and uses all the terms the lawyers told him not to do. He commits candor. He said this is a war."

You absolutely can be expected to swear in a duly elected US senator. It is your obligation as a servant of the people. You sought the office, so do what's required of you. There is no constitutional requirement that the person you're swearing in shows you respect. That's not how democracy works.

To be absolutely clear: This was another Y2K situation. Lots and lots of people worked diligently for months and years, at great cost, taking hours away from their friends & family, to make our elections a bit more free and fair. Voting was still threatened! It still took record-breaking turnout!

This is so wrong The reason “Trump didn’t steal the elections” is because we & the pro-voter coalition stopped him EIGHT times over the past 21 months Here’s how: a thread (1/x)
