New investigation shows how Russia has spent decades training Iranian specialists who went on to work in Iran’s defense industry. Despite mounting evidence of Iranian and Russian cooperation, including on potentially the nuclear program, Trump continues providing cover for Moscow

We are 100 days from the midterm elections. Democrats have a clear path to the majority in the House and Senate. Trump and the GOP's only strategy is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat. We will fight them in every district and in every state. And when we fight we win!

In 2020, Trump lied before the election, lied after the election and -- when he lost in court -- incited a violent insurrection at the Capitol. Right now, he is lying and losing in court ahead of 2026. He is going to escalate and we need to be ready.
