When a WI woman asked Sen Johnson what options she'd have without the ACA if she tested positive for the genetic pre-existing condition that killed her mom, he said he would force her back into the high-risk pools that made anyone with pre-existing conditions pay double for care.

Karolina’s tribute to her partner, Johan, who was killed by ICE is heartbreaking. We now know the agent who shot him had a history of violent behavior & should never have had a gun—let alone one provided by the US gov’t. I’ll keep demanding answers & accountability. OP: CNN

Food delivery apps are imposing pocketbook breaking, undisclosed, deceptive fees—raising food prices an average of 80%. I’m demanding the FTC stop them.

Jeanine Pirro is deeply unqualified & unfit to be the United States Attorney for DC. She is simply a loyal acolyte & sycophant of the President. She is not objective, she is not independent. Instead she has made her mark spreading damaging, offensive conspiracy theories.

My visit to Ukraine convinces me that redoubled U.S. support—more than rhetoric—is essential to Ukraine’s battlefield strength & peace. The Ukrainian Navy is fighting with a determination & skill that is of the highest caliber. We must provide them the tools they urgently need.

Russia’s Foreign Minister Lavrov says American diplomats should leave Ukraine—to avoid their blood thirsty bombs. In Ukraine now, I’m seeing firsthand brave American diplomats who refuse to be cowed by Russian bullying.

Pressed by my questions, Trump’s judicial nominees give identical, nonsensical canned responses—looking ridiculous & demonstrating an abject absence of independence & integrity. Lacking a backbone now, they won’t have one on the bench.

Republicans want unprecedented cuts to veterans’ benefits. On the floor, I urged a new alternative—use unspent DOD funds to provide for the Major Richard Star Act. Sadly, Republicans rejected it.

We must release the equipment that Ukraine desperately needs. It’s sitting there, but Sec. Hegseth seemingly refuses to do anything about it.

I call for Brendan Carr’s resignation. Censoring Jimmy Kimmel goes to the core of suppressing free speech in this country. Trump—through his lapdog chair of the FCC—is creating the fear & intimidation that serves an instrument of authoritarian power.

As I leave Kyiv, I’m inspired by the strength & courage of the Ukrainian people as they endure Putin's bloody invasion. Ukraine's fight is our fight—we must pass my Russian sanctions bill w/ Lindsey Graham & impose bone-crushing sanctions on Russia to stop the murderous assault

Trump is exploiting legal loopholes & enforcement weaknesses that cry out for reform—real safeguards, not smokescreen steps in the Clarity Act. For starters, require Trump & his family & all officials to divest all digital assets.

Ambassador Norm Eisen discusses how Trump is attempting to rewrite his legacy—defacing landmarks, institutions, & spaces that belong to the American people. A display of unprecedented corruption in plain sight.

Trump treats the entire capital as his personal Versailles. He’s planning to build a massive arch to glorify himself & obstruct views of Arlington National Cemetery without input from veterans like Jimi Shaughnessy.

I was shocked to learn that Putin is purposely targeting American businesses—bombing more than half of the 600 with operations here. It’s open season on American plants & offices in Ukraine.

Our Russia Sanctions Bill is the product of lengthy & difficult bipartisan work, & now has broad support in the Senate & from the White House. As Ukraine turns the tide on the battlefield, our bill would be hugely impactful in stopping Russia’s murderous slaughter.
