On the day Biden left office, inflation was down to 2.9%, gas was $3.12 a gallon, and diesel was $3.63. Now inflation is 3.4%, gas $4.44 and diesel is $6.40 because of tariffs and the Iran war.

🔥 Here's Whitehouse's entire remarkable speech opposing Blanche: "What's left of this committee when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has DOJ been asked what became of the $50k that the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our R colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, & speak no evil."

The Trump administration's chaotic and cruel immigration policies shut the door on access to safety for refugees. Its actions aren't real solutions—they're part of an ideological crusade against immigration. Here's how we can have a secure border WITHOUT turning our backs on victims of persecution:

I have been called an alarmist and worse by well meaning people who want to think it will just all be ok. The truth is it doesn't always end up ok and we can't pretend it will. Donald Trump is targeting Black voters and women to rig this election. We need to stand up, call it out and take action.

ICE agents threatened to beat up a Seattle small business owner, married to a citizen, with NO criminal record unless he signed a "voluntary" departure. I'm told there were cameras in the room. I'm demanding any video and that Eduardo be brought home immediately.

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.
