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.

A subpoenaed witness was allowed to appear voluntarily. No oath. No cameras. “I don’t recall” on repeat. And when we asked about Donald Trump and his administration, DOJ attorneys stepped in to shut it down. This wasn’t a hearing. It was structured to shield the truth.

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 the MOST corrupt Administration in American history: —Insider trading —Selling pardons —Crypto and real estate deals —Arms deals —BILLIONS in tax breaks for billionaires on the backs of the American people And NOW the IRS giving Trump and convicted rioters BILLIONS in taxpayer dollars. This is outrageous!

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.

🚨 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.

Headed back to FINALLY hear from Pam Bondi tomorrow on the Epstein Case—except that the public won’t see or hear a single thing that happens in the room. Because, Republicans who control the Committee unilaterally decided: NO cameras. NO video recordings. NO sworn oath. NO deposition. Just a friendly interview. But, no matter what roadblocks and smokescreens they throw at us—we will not stop until we get justice for survivors.

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.

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. ⬇️
