When Trump said “I’m not going to start a war,” many Americans believed that promise - and voted for him. When he said his Iran war would be over in a few weeks, many believed that too. Americans today are fed up with the cost of this war - and the lies.

"What can Democrats actually do?" - Vote against funding for ICE and DHS - State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law - Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE - Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

A recent Israeli decision to bar Doctors Without Borders and other aid groups means international staff and aid can no longer enter Gaza or the West Bank. Local staff must rely on dwindling supplies and no international expertise.

This Admin’s unprecedented military operation in Venezuela has created uncertainty and instability not only in Venezuela but throughout the region. I’m proud to stand with my fellow veterans to stand up for American security. Congress must have the tenacity to push back on this Admin.

President Trump issued pardons to two people convicted of crimes stemming from the events of Jan. 6, 2021, but not directly tied to the attack on the Capitol, expanding the scope of the broad clemency he had already granted to those caught up in the prosecutions related to the riot.

NPR reported this morning that, based on their review of the #Epstein emails released yesterday, Trump’s name appeared more than 1,000 times in the document— "I have met some very bad people, none as bad as #Trump. Not one decent cell in his body." - Jeffrey Epstein

A black-and-white photo of Trump & Epstein in suits standing close together at what appears to be a party, with Trump holding two children in front of him while the Epstein holds a drink.

My takeaway from Epstein document dump was that Jeffrey Epstein in 2018/early 2019 was increasingly telling people he had dirt on Trump and Trump knew everything about child sex ring. To protect Trump's re-election campaign, Trump's DOJ charged Epstein in July 2019. Then Epstein committed "suicide."

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
