The Trump insiders are doing just fine. It's everyone else who's paying the price.  Virginians are losing jobs, small businesses are struggling, and families are losing health care – while the wealthy and well-connected keep getting wealthier.

As if dismissing survivors, covering up the Epstein files, and abusing the power of the Justice Department wasn't bad enough, Todd Blanche is now saying he wants to ban abortion nationwide. He should not be Attorney General.

Acting AG Todd Blanche plans to outlaw abortion nationwide: We're working to get solutions so that the Dobbs decision becomes permanent in every single state. We're putting policies in place so that states can't do things like mail abortion drugs. We will have victory, and it will be permanent.

Great to welcome Hon. Peter Malinauskas, Premier of South Australia, during his visit to the United States.  We had a productive conversation about the critical relationship between the U.S. and Australia.

The Senate has a choice today: stand with survivors or reward the cover-up. The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on Todd Blanche's nomination for AG. Every senator should choose transparency over the man overseeing the Epstein files cover-up.

From illegally redacting files to withholding millions more, Blanche has mishandled the release of the Epstein files at every turn.  An Attorney General should pursue the truth, not protect Donald Trump.

Trump wants Todd Blanche confirmed because he oversaw the Epstein files cover-up. Given Trump’s long, documented relationship with Epstein, it’s hard to believe he wants an AG who would release the full truth.

What a party! Celebrated Norma’s 100th birthday with friends at Braddock Glen. At 100 years young, Norma’s life is filled with family, friends, laughter, and plenty of Snicker’s!

Trump’s administration has no problem spending your money on themselves while the American people struggle to make ends meet. You deserve better.

Trump’s DOJ is dropping its case against David Hearn, who faced 10 years for “Reflecting Pool damage.” Prosecutors now admit the damage came from a botched installation, not vandalism. A Trump donor got a $1.7M no-bid contract. Hearn got indicted. That’s Trump corruption.

The Justice Department moved to dismiss the criminal case against Olympian David Hearn.

Donald Trump is still defending his $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded ‘anti-weaponization’ fund. He wants billions of your tax dollars available to compensate his political allies. He’s flat out trying to steal your money.

One year later, the damage is clear. DOGE dismantled USAID and slashed the State Department, weakening America's leadership, our national security, and our ability to respond to global crises. We should be rebuilding our public service, and I'll keep fighting to make that happen.

Donald Trump is named in the Epstein files more than 38,000 times. He partied with Epstein at Mar-a-Lago. He even sent Epstein a bizarre birthday note. Given Trump's long history and close relationship with Epstein, it's hard to believe he knew nothing.

As co-chairs of the Federal Workforce Caucus, U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Congressman Steny H. Hoyer (MD-05), and I led 43 Members of Congress in filing an amicus brief in Jackler and Jaroch v. Department of Justice.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be paying for this administration’s luxury travel.  Secretary Mullin had every opportunity to commit to selling Noem’s top-of-the-line-taxpayer-funded Gulfstream jets.  Instead, he defended flying home to Oklahoma on them.

On the anniversary of Medicare and Medicaid, here’s the reality: Trump’s cuts now threaten health care for 300,000 Virginians. He promised he wouldn’t touch these programs. He lied. You deserve better.

Millions of federal workers could lose protections against political firings because of one dangerous court ruling. As Federal Workforce Caucus co-chairs, @vanhollen.senate.gov, @hoyer.house.gov, and I led 43 colleagues in urging the court to reverse it and defend our merit-based civil service.

You can't claim to stand with survivors while ignoring them. Todd Blanche did exactly that for months.  And when he finally met with them, he dismissed their concerns.  The Senate should not confirm him as AG.

(1/2) Foreign assistance and global development programs save lives, strengthen our allies, and make America more secure.

Confirming Todd Blanche as Attorney General would reward the man leading the Epstein cover-up. He delayed meeting with survivors. He continues withholding and illegally redacting files. A vote for Blanche is a vote to keep the cover-up alive.

Trump said he wouldn't touch Medicare. Now millions of Americans will pay more for the prescriptions they depend on. Another broken promise. www.wsj.com/health/healt...

Republicans in Congress want to meddle with D.C.’s budget. They should worry about their own after their Big Ugly Bill caused the federal deficit to skyrocket by $4.7 trillion.

Military bases have suffered more than $15 billion in damage from natural disasters over the past decade. Yet DoD still isn't tracking the full impact. I introduced legislation with Rep. Moylan to fix that and strengthen military readiness.

Donald Trump trusts mail-in voting when he’s the one casting the ballot. But when millions of Americans do the same, he calls it fraud and wants it restricted. This is voter suppression, plain and simple. x.com/ap/status/20...

The Trump White House held a Situation Room meeting to plan the cover up of the Epstein files. This administration promised transparency. Instead, they're still withholding and redacting files. The cover-up must end. Release the files.

A 7-year-old wants to go to school. A 9-year-old begs to leave. A 12-year-old is told to drink the water that's making children sick. These are children imprisoned at Dilley under Donald Trump.  I am demanding Trump #ShutDownDilley and free the children.

Donald Trump is once again setting the stage to dispute an election before it even happens. If he really cared about election integrity, he wouldn't be dismantling the agency that protects our elections.

A judge has now ordered Todd Blanche to produce the unredacted Epstein files and justify the DOJ's redactions. Just like we've been saying: this fight isn't over, and the truth is still coming out.
