Awkward way for Joni Ernst to find out she isn’t funny. Let’s stop sending people like Joni Ernst and Lindsey Graham to the Senate.

We don’t have to wonder how President Trump will line his pockets if the GENIUS Act passes—he's showing us now. Since Monday's GENIUS Act vote, his stablecoin’s daily trade volume has increased by over a BILLION dollars, or 1000%. The Senate can and must stop this corruption.

A jury convicted TV stars Todd and Julie Chrisley of financial fraud and tax evasion. They were cheating and stealing to buy luxury cars and clothes. Then their daughter campaigned for Trump. This pardon is a get-out-of-jail-free card for the rich & famous who cozy up to Trump.

Trump math: $1M dinner + lots of kissing up = 1 pardon + erasing a $4.4M penalty. To Trump, it doesn't matter that Walczak stole millions from the paychecks of nurses and doctors to pay for a yacht. All that matters is how much money his family paid Trump.

we took a walk in the park with friends, visited someone housebound, shopped in Home Depot, and shared a street vendor fruit cup. How was your afternoon?

More than 9,000 American service members are buried at Normandy, where they died to protect democracy. We owe not just gratitude, but eternal vigilance to them and all who have sacrificed their lives for our country. #MemorialDay

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Not that anyone asked, but during my tenure on the Pentagon’s Defense Innovation Board, under part of Obama-2 and all of Trump-1, we visited Military Bases domestically & abroad. At no time did any member of the Armed Forces I met say to me: “America needs less science funding.”

My loyal companion Bode died last night of canine lymphoma. Since 2016, he was by my side at work and at play. He was always happy and no matter how bad other things were, he always made me smile. Quite simply, he was the best dog ever. I already miss him terribly.

If you make over $1 million, the Republican bill gives you an $82,000 tax break. If you make under $100,000, it's only $750. Democrats believe we should tax the rich, not add $3.8 trillion to our exploding deficit by giving them more breaks.

Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one. All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.

Trump’s team is threatening to ARREST members of Congress for conducting oversight. That’s not democracy — that’s dictatorship. We’re not backing down and neither will you. We’ll speak up, show up, and peacefully protest to protect our rights.

Secretary Noem wouldn’t even look at the doctored evidence Trump used to deport a Maryland man to a death camp. If they’ll lie to justify that, they’ll lie to lock anyone up. We’re not going away. We’re bringing the truth to light.

Service dogs, and their trainers, are vital to Minnesotans who depend on their services. I just signed a bill - alongside Mato, Flint, and Jessie - ensuring that service dogs in training are exempt from HOA and apartment rules that don’t allow dogs.
