I called it a clown show because that’s what it is. It’s appalling to watch Republicans turn an investigation into child sex abuse and trafficking into a political stunt. Chairman Comer and House Republicans are complicit in the most egregious coverup in American history.

Trump just blamed Pete Hegseth for a war crime in Iran. I’ve introduced Articles of Impeachment against Hegseth. I urge my colleagues to join us.

Q: Will you hold anyone in your administration accountable for the strike on a school that killed more than 100 children on the first day of the war? Trump: Nobody did that on purpose. Mistakes are made. I would ask Pete Hegseth that question

Donald Trump’s unconstitutional war in Iran was never about freedom for the Iranian people. He dragged the United States into a conflict with no clear objective and no plan for what comes next. The result has been catastrophic and it must end.

Trump: Finally, to the great proud people of Iran. I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered. Don't leave your home. It's very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to

While Americans are losing healthcare, Trump is building a $600 million White House ballroom with taxpayer dollars and planning UFC fights for his birthday. The corruption is gross and staggering, and we will hold every one of them accountable.

Donald Trump’s reckless, illegal war has been catastrophic in every possible way. And it’s destroyed any semblance of credibility the U.S. had left.

Donald Trump’s claim that “help is on the way” for Iranian people was always bullshit. He's a pathological liar who knows nothing about foreign policy. Now thousands of innocent civilians and 13 Americans are dead. Everyone is worse off because of his reckless, illegal war.

We marked 14 years of DACA and celebrated the resilience and contributions of Dreamers, and recognize that the fight is far from over. We heard directly from Dreamers and advocates about the challenges they’re facing and the need for bold action, including a pathway to
