It's no secret Donald Trump fancied the DOJ his own personal law firm. Now, new reporting alleges he accepted millions of dollars in bribes from the Egyptian government while his DOJ looked the other way. Oversight Dems are demanding answers.

House Democrats stand in solidarity with the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s monstrous international sex trafficking ring. They have come to the State of the Union to reject Trump’s claim that this is a “hoax.” America demands an end to the Trump-Bondi coverup and justice for all the survivors and their families.

Democrats have got the unity and fight to oppose Trump’s illegal and monarchical decimation of Congressional legislation and federal programs. We will show up wherever and whenever the rule of law is under attack by Elon Musk and his interns.

The president wants all the parts of government closed that he can't personally profit from. So he doesn't care about health care for your family. He wants to build a White House ballroom and promote bitcoin.

America sees the brutal violence ICE and Border Patrol are inflicting on our people and won’t allow it to continue. Trump and Noem underestimate the American people—as they say in Minneapolis, “We’ve got eyes/so stop your lies.”

Democracy isn't just a static collection of institutions. It’s statehood for millions of disenfranchised people, a stop to voter suppression, and an end to partisan gerrymandering and dark money. To defend democracy is to defend progress toward a more perfect union.

President Trump and his personal attorney-turned-personal-Attorney General, Todd Blanche, want the American people to believe that (1) there is no evidence in the Epstein files that could justify an investigation of anyone other than Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, (2) that Epstein and Maxwell alone, with no help, trafficked thousands of women and young girls in a billion-dollar decade-long international conspiracy, (3) that the Epstein files “fully exonerate” Trump of any involvement in Epstein’s network or other wrongdoing and, (4) Trump banned his best friend Jeffrey Epstein from Mar-a-Lago for being a “creep.” House Judiciary Dems Democrats set out to find the truth about these claims. They are all outrageous lies. We also found five survivors who accuse Trump himself of raping or sexually assaulting them in Epstein’s close company, one of whom had never spoken in detail about her rape until now. The DOJ won't do its job to investigate all of the abundant evidence of wrongdoing in the Epstein files, so Democrats demand appointment of a truly independent Special Counsel to conduct a thorough investigation of the largest human sex trafficking network in this century.

The DOJ is giving Members of Congress just four computers in a satellite office to read the unredacted Epstein File of more than 3 million documents. Working 40 hours a week on nothing else but this, it would take more than seven years for the 217 Members who signed the House discharge petition to read just the documents they've decided to release (and there are 3 million still being withheld). This is what a cover up looks like.

I agree with Tribe, Luttig, Gov. Asa Hutchinson, Fed Soc scholars: Section 3 of the 14th bars insurrectionists like Donald Trump from holding public office again. If you’ve abused your office by trying to overthrow the government, you get no more chances.

President Trump sent lawyers to court begging and pleading to let them rip away SNAP from 41 million hungry Americans. They lost big-time. Democrats will keep fighting to make sure the GOP’s Marie Antoinettes and Make Gatsby Great Again billionaires fail in their effort to bulldoze the nutrition and health of the people.

This was at 4:00 PM, and I confess, I wasn't expecting President Trump to move so quickly—just a few hours later— to agree to my demand that he pay for his own bad propaganda ads. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, Sir!

We demanded answers on Andy's behalf, and we got results. Americans should be able to trust that what they buy will work as promised and that the government will hold manufacturers accountable if they, the consumers, don’t get what they paid for.

Donald Trump got the Director of the US Patent and Trade Office to apply for trademarks for the Board of Peace—something it does for no other entity and which is not allowed under federal law. Then he waived the fee for registration. Now he’ll decide whether to grant the application he submitted! No one knows what this Board of Peace is or where the billions of dollars gathered from corrupt foreign states will go. We're exposing this devious scheme.

There is nothing magical or sacred about having nine Supreme Court justices. Congress has repeatedly expanded—and reduced—the size of the Supreme Court. Now, after abdicating war powers, spending powers, tariff power and the power to control federal structures and buildings like the White House and the Reflecting Pool, this MAGA-controlled Congress wants to relinquish yet another essential constitutional power that goes back to the Founding—the power to fix the size of the Supreme Court. I argued and voted ‘NO.’

BIG NEWS: I just signed and filed a discharge petition to force a floor vote on my legislation to permanently block Trump’s $1.8 BILLION taxpayer-funded slush fund for his January 6 private militia and family-sized Super Pardon. I'm calling on all members of Congress to sign on. We can stop this self-dealing scheme and stand up for the taxpayers.

America must reject the GOP’s dangerous nihilism about the impossibility of separating truth from lies, a derangement brought on by Donald Trump but now infecting their whole party. Our system of democratic governance rests on truth and facts—not lies and conspiracy theories.

The GOP wants to give the new president Orwellian powers to impose a Kafkaesque nightmare on America's nonprofits. What could go wrong with the new administration having the power to designate groups as "terrorist-supporting" with no judicial determination and no due process?

While President Trump does everything he can to censor and whitewash American history, we will work to preserve it all, including his own notable part in it. My legislation will make sure we keep and display all of Trump's propaganda signs and banners, document his incorrigible lawlessness and attacks on our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and save all of his gaudy, narcissistic architectural flourishes and monstrosities paid for with the people’s tax dollars in a Smithsonian exhibit devoted to American political authoritarianism.

Disqualifying Trump from office under Section III of the 14th Amendment doesn't undermine democracy—insurrection does that. The Framers of the 14th Amendment sought to protect democracy against violent attack—and our Supreme Court should too.

Like all his Communist- and-fascist friends and role models (like Kim Jong-Un, President Xi, Mohammed bin Salman and Vladimir Putin), President Trump tries to control the news and repress the press. His response to bad news about his catastrophic wars, tariffs, debt and corruption is to expel media from the White House. Everyone who wants to preserve constitutional democracy must denounce the assault on MS NOW, CNN and Politico. The free press is not the enemy of the people, but the people's best friend.

The Framers taught us that the biggest threat to religious freedom comes from theocrats who try to establish their own sect over everyone else. That’s why we have two religion clauses in the First Amendment.

House Democrats fell for nothing last week and badly defeated MAGA’s attempt to surrender yet another power of Congress (beyond war powers, tariff powers and the power over federal buildings like the White House and Kennedy Center) by freezing the size of the Supreme Court in constitutional cement. Of course, President Trump loves the stacked and packed Roberts court because they overturned Roe v. Wade, destroyed the Voting Rights Act and gave the president total immunity for felony crimes he commits in office. But Congress has governed the size of the Court since the beginning of the Republic, not Trump and not MAGA.
