Cleveland did not send me to Congress to be interrupted, talked over, and lied to.
Especially not by Trump officials who are punishing people with SNAP cuts and higher food prices every day.

- You can’t make this up. While the House Agriculture Committee was holding a hearing on the importance of renewing the USMCA, Trump stated he is “not looking to renew” the trade agreement after all.
00:00House Ag Committee holds an hours-long hearing championing USMCA's importance for U.S. agriculture only to hear the president threaten today not to renew the trade deal. - Remember this when they say they can't afford Medicaid and Social Security.In the last 18 months, Congress has given DHS $240 billion — a quarter of a trillion.
- Prices are way up because of Trump and he loves it. Well, we don't love it in Cleveland.
- I have a message for Rep. James Comer: Stop with the racist comments about “my people” and keep my name out of your mouth. Republicans are letting the truth slip out about what they really want - to take health care away from millions.
00:00 - Republicans in Congress have given ICE another blank check. Over $60 billion in new funding, with no guardrails or oversight. People have been killed. Families and children are being locked away in inhumane detention centers. MAGA is doubling down on lawless cruelty.
- The House just passed the Faster Labor Contracts Act – this is a big win for workers! I proudly voted for this bill, which speeds up the process of finalizing a contract between a newly certified union and the employer, and prevents employers from dragging out negotiations for
- [Narrator] But what was a dream for the DOGE bros turned into a nightmare for cattle ranchers.A government agency spending $300 million in taxpayer dollars to produce sterilized flies sounds like a dream scenario for a DOGE team looking to cut waste, fraud, and abuse. newsmax.com/platinum/screw…
- I just voted NO on the Reckless Republican Budget that gives ICE billions. While Americans struggle with higher costs, Republicans are giving ICE & CBP another $60 billion so they can continue to terrorize communities with a lawless and violent mass deportation agenda. SHAME.
- This should set off alarm bells. Trump DOJ is now using the horrendous Supreme Court ruling on the Voting Rights Act to gut anti-discrimination protections for workers as well. This is a systematic attack on Black Americans and other minorities.Following the Roberts Court's gutting of the Voting Rights Act -- and Black Americans' representation in Congress, state and local offices around the country. Just in: DOJ claims the Court opinion supports now gutting racial bias claims in employment. justice.gov/olc/media/1444…
- The Supreme Court has ripped the Voting Rights Act to shreds, and now Black voting rights are at risk. I will not watch this happen without a fight.
00:00 - Trump picked Bill Pulte for DNI precisely because he is inexperienced, unqualified, and will be the pushover this president needs to attack & surveil his political enemies. Bottom line, Pulte will not act in Americans' best interest. He should be pulled from consideration ASAP.
- Try approximately 100 times. Just like Trump's health care plan that has been two weeks away for 10 years.Trump claims he's "2 or 3 days" from a deal with Iran (he's said this approximately 20 times since March)
