While your time as Ambassador to Greece may be coming to an end, our investigation has not. We have asked you a series of questions, and we look forward to your responses.

Marta Brizeyda Renderos Leiva's arrest at Salt Lake City International Airport captured a disturbing moment: a mother of four screaming, "Help me, please! I have my papers!"

Ken Paxton is selling off Texas — our land, our water, our communities. Data centers bankroll Paxton, they get tax breaks, and you get stuck with the bill. We can’t afford Ken Paxton’s corruption. (This ad was made by humans — not AI.)

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

“Christian” pastors cheering on public executions when the whole Christian faith is based on the abhorrence of the gruesomeness of a public execution shows how far Christian Nationalism is off the rails.

I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

We know that a Russian oligarch with close ties to Putin bankrolled Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding, but we don't know what he expected in return. @blumenthal.senate.gov is right: this is just the tip of the iceberg. Oversight Dems will press for answers and follow the money.

ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying. The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened. This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.

When Jesus healed the sick, he didn’t ask for a deductible. When he fed the hungry, he didn’t price gouge for a profit. When the Hebrew prophets saw corruption, they spoke truth to power. When I take on this corrupt system, I’m doing it on biblical grounds.

Rep. Joyce Beatty told Donald Trump "I know you're incompetent" – to his face. She also told him, "You’re already killing people. We’re at war. We also have people who are starving. You’re doing this." and "You have more bankruptcies than anyone in the room." Joyce Beatty is Jedi.
