In America, we have no kings, no dictators, no despots, no nobles, no slaves, no serfs, no subjects. Just "We the People." We are not one race, one ethnicity, one religion or one party. But we have one Constitution and one Bill of Rights. Happy Constitution Day, everybody!

President Trump is operating an insider-trading scheme by selling information about his backroom stock grifts to rich investors. House Judiciary Dems are demanding answers on the president’s latest corrupt plans to sell $100K monthly access to his market-moving Truth Social posts.

The corruption driving the Trump presidency is a civic emergency. Congress has a responsibility to confront it directly and to crush it as quickly as possible. We, Democrats, will not rest until we restore the rule of law.

Attorney General Todd Blanche secured his confirmation with a laughably flimsy memo promising President Trump's slush fund and Super Pardon was over. The only problem is the memo does nothing of the sort. Hear why this empty agreement leaves the door open to more extraordinary corruption.

It was a great honor to lead a delegation of members of Congress on a visit to the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington to see this mesmerizing archive of Jewish American history and culture in the DMV. Check out the amazing exhibit called “Blacklisted.”

Donald Trump converted the White House into a money-making operation for himself, his family, and his closest advisors and biggest campaign donors. It's endless corrupt self-enrichment from a president who says he doesn't "think about Americans' financial situation.” No kidding.

It was a great pleasure addressing a bipartisan group of House and Senate interns on the Constitution and their own role in shaping the future of American democracy. These patriotic young people are helping make Congress and government work for all our people.

This isn't about one slush fund or one president. I've introduced legislation to stop any president from using taxpayer money to bankroll their political allies and score a family sweeping Super Pardon. Congress must act urgently to ban these ripoff schemes and collusive 'settlements.'

President Trump's extraordinarily corrupt slush fund would funnel $1.8 billion of taxpayer money to his political patrons and January 6 white nationalist foot soldiers. While the courts blocked the DOJ scheme for now, Congress still must act to bar this dirty deal forever.

It was an honor to welcome to Capitol Hill 8th District students who were nominated and received appointment offers to U.S. Service Academies. These exceptionally talented young people will go on to serve as military officers and leaders in different parts of the government and society.

President Trump doesn't care whether you can afford health care, rent or groceries. He has no plan for America’s working families. Instead, the president fills his time settling political scores and litigating beach sea shell messages from nine months ago.

More than 20,000 Ukrainian children have been abducted by Russian forces since the start of Putin's bloody war. America must work to secure the return of these missing kids to their families and freedom for the Ukrainian people.

President Trump called the affordability crisis "a hoax." Most Americans, including millions of Republicans, know this isn't true. The costs of health care, groceries, rent and other essentials are skyrocketing while the President spends recklessly on an illegal war.

Attorney General Bondi thinks she can play hide-and-go-seek with the Epstein Files, but the law is clear and mandatory. She must release the Files in their entirety so we can end this massive coverup and elite protection for predators.

Now-fired DHS Secretary Kristi Noem lavished $220 million in American taxpayer funds on a self-promoting PR campaign run by close friends. Where’s DOGE's night crew cracking down on wasteful and corrupt spending when you actually need it?   The American people demand an investigation and a refund.

Secretary Noem acknowledges ICE and CBP can't shoot Americans for peacefully protesting, videotaping ICE officers or lawfully carrying a firearm, and yet her agents are routinely violating the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. There is a total leadership breakdown requiring immediate change.

Alex Pretti and Renée Good were murdered by federal agents. Soon after, Secretary Noem labeled them 'domestic terrorists.’ I gave her the chance to recant and apologize for the pain she's caused their families with these outrageous lies. She refused.

Justice for victims or coverup for their traffickers? Health care for all or corrupt self-enrichment for the president? The Bill of Rights or a catalogue of escalating wrongs against the people? The battle lines are drawn in Congress.

Trump’s DOJ isn't focused on arriving at the truth about Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking ring and all of its crimes and accomplices. Trump’s DOJ is focused on diversion, distraction, delay, and setting trapdoors for Congress. Pam Bondi is running a coverup.

Trump is shredding our Constitution every day. Instead of answering for all the damage inflicted on our people and the rule of law, Attorney General Pam Bondi spent her time before the Judiciary Committee name-calling, filibustering and deflecting from her indefensible Epstein coverup.

If they force us to choose between calling for the resignation of imbecilic bigots or normalizing hateful religious incitement, that’s not a tough one. This fanatic should spare his constituents any further embarrassment and resign.

I asked Attorney General Pam Bondi whether she would create a federal-state-local task force to investigate the horrific abuses perpetrated through Jeffrey Epstein's human trafficking ring. Her prolonged response: *crickets*

Several survivors of Epstein's global child trafficking ring are now dangerously exposed because the DOJ is either spectacularly sloppy or trying to intimidate people. Or both. Attorney General Pam Bondi comes before @democrats-judiciary.house.gov tomorrow. We'll be demanding answers.

America sees the brutal violence ICE and Border Patrol are inflicting on our people and won’t allow it to continue. Trump and Noem underestimate the American people—as they say in Minneapolis, “We’ve got eyes/so stop your lies.”

The heroic people of Minneapolis and all Americans uplifting their voices and their communities to oppose Trump’s deadly authoritarianism have transformed the politics of 2026. Massive popular organizing will beat fascism. Keep marching, keep fighting everyone.

When Donald Trump invokes “large scale perjury,” he obviously knows whereof he speaks. He is the undisputed living master of the Big Lie. But can he and his cult followers identify a single lie Jack Smith told?

MAGA can't whitewash what happened on January 6, 2021 because of the uncontradicted J6 Report and because the insurrectionists themselves photographed and videotaped their crimes. We’ll continue to tell the story of how brave police officers defended the Capitol against Trump’s rampaging mob.

MAGA’s refusal to extend ACA tax subsidies hurts people like my constituent Rebecca, a cancer survivor who recently lost her job. For Rebecca, giant premium hikes mean she risks missing treatments and losing health insurance altogether.

President Trump doesn't just have a problem with Democrats when he's trying to slide his sycophants into U.S. Attorney roles. He has a problem with Senate Republicans, Republican-appointed judges and the Constitution.

The DOJ is hemorrhaging staff, morale and commitment, as experienced prosecutors are sacked and replaced by unqualified political sycophants. Trump's Gangster State endangers public safety and national security.

The homicidal Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's visit to Washington has been a disgrace to American democracy. Trump’s thoughts on the assassination of Jamal Khashoggi: “things happen.” What he said about the epidemic of human rights violations in Saudi Arabia: nothing.

I’m inspired by hundreds of former USAID federal workers still fighting for democracy, development and community action. Trump and DOGE may have snuffed out USAID, and sacrificed hundreds of thousands of former beneficiaries, but the spirit and solidarity of its staff persist.
