The White House is confirming U.S. military operations in Venezuela tonight. Let us be clear: these strikes are illegal. The President does not have the authority to declare war or undertake large-scale military operations without Congress. Congress must act to rein him in. Immediately.

‼️ This is Trump’s Watergate Moment. For months the Vice President, White House Chief of Staff, Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, Kash Patel and other top officials colluded in the Situation Room to break the law and BURY the Epstein investigation. This is what went down ⬇️

BREAKING: Two more American service members’ lives have been lost in a war that never should have happened in the first place. My heart and prayers are with their families and loved ones and all those still missing and injured. 💔 It is long past due for my colleagues across the aisle to stand up and stop this war and end the violence!

🚨 Breaking: House Natural Resources SHUT DOWN over Don Jr. Subpoena! 🚨 Donald Trump Jr’s 1789 Capital investment firm made a major investment in a rare earth mineral company called Vulcan Elements months before it received $620 million in the largest loan in Pentagon history from DOD and $50 million from Commerce. This was at the same time Trump Sr. was threatening to blow up our NATO alliance and invade Greenland, where Vulcan has significant rare earth interests. We know Trump and his family are lining their own pockets with corrupt government deals. But, when we tried to subpoena his Jr. to answer questions today, Republicans shut it down. ⬇️ Rep.

Just flew in from Albuquerque and had to come down to see the White House for myself. As our communities are facing a crisis—Trump is CHOOSING to cut off food assistance to 40 million Americans—while building a $300 million ballroom for himself. Cruelty is the point.

Congress issued a legally binding subpoena, and Pam Bondi chose not to comply. Instead of appearing for her sworn deposition she sat for a voluntary interview where DOJ attorneys repeatedly stepped in to block answers. That is not accountability. The American people deserve the truth, survivors deserve justice, and Congress deserves answers.

Marching with Congressional Hispanic Caucus to the senate to demand GOP Leader John Thune take immediate action to investigate and hold DHS accountable for the assault and detainment of U.S. Sen Michael Padilla. This is America. This is our democracy. We will not stand for it.

Welp, we tried to run bipartisan legislation so that Members with newborns could vote remotely, and rather than allow the legislation—the Speaker SHUT THE HOUSE DOWN and canceled votes for the rest of the week. That’s right, rather than accommodate new moms on both sides of the aisle, they’d rather shut Congress down. This is what’s happening in the House right now. ⬇️

A $1 billion for a Ballroom, $10 billion for vanity projects in DC, $15 million for an arch in front of Arlington Cemetery veterans oppose. Meanwhile—they are proposing to cut over $1 billion in tribal programs, eviscerating tribal housing, education, water and other basic programs, while opening sacred sites like Chaco Canyon. How can they defend this? They can’t. Because, it’s indefensible.
