Democrats cannot complain about Trump’s authoritarianism while ignoring their own constitutional responsibility regarding taking the country to war. Democrats must support Sen. Kaine’s War Powers Resolution. The U.S. must not get involved in Netanyahu’s war.
Donald Trump in 2016: “Obviously the war in Iraq was a big fat mistake.“ Trump was right. Let’s not repeat that mistake in 2025 by getting dragged into a war with Iran.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE MUST STAND FIRM. We must not be dragged into Netanyahu’s illegal war against Iran.
Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from from leading us into an illegal war with Iran. Another war in the Middle East could cost countless lives, waste trillions more dollars, and lead to even more deaths, more conflict, and more displacement.
It's unacceptable that 3,000 grocery workers in Minnesota have been without a union contract for 3 months. It's time for the CEOs of Cub Foods, Knowlan's & Haug's to end their outrageous corporate greed, negotiate in good faith with the UFCW & treat their workers with respect.
Netanyahu’s illegal, unilateral attack on Iran is just his latest violation of international law. The United States must not be a part of this war. My full statement:
Netanyahu began this war with his attack on Iran. In the process, he sabotaged US-Iran negotiations on nuclear issues and assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator. The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.
The United States must not be drawn into Netanyahu’s illegal war against Iran. I will be introducing legislation to prohibit the use of federal funds for any use of military force in or against Iran without specific Congressional authorization, with an exception for self-defense.
Netanyahu’s illegal unilateral attack on Iran risks a full-blown war. These strikes directly undermine the U.S. diplomatic efforts to address Iran’s nuclear program. Talks were planned for Sunday, but Netanyahu chose to attack. We must not be dragged into another Netanyahu war.
I asked Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to justify cutting Medicaid by $700 billion dollars just to give the very richest people in this country a $235 billion tax break. You won't be surprised to learn: he didn't have an answer.
Tragically, the outrageous assault of Sen. Padilla today is becoming normal behavior for a Trump administration which is moving us toward authoritarianism. The American people do not like petty tyrants. We defeated King George in 1776. We will defeat King Donald.
Trump & my Republican colleagues want to throw 16 million Americans off health care – on top of 85 million who are uninsured or underinsured. Their actions will cause more than 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily each year. Why? So they can give massive tax breaks to the 1%.
Middle East autocrats know money is the best way to influence Trump. That’s why they’re buying his crypto, signing deals & giving him a luxury jet. We need a government that works for the American people, not just those rich enough to bribe the president.
AI is coming for YOUR job and jobs all across the country. Who will benefit from this revolutionary transformation? Will it be working class Americans or the billionaires who own the technology? That is the economic struggle of our time.
Yes. When the richest man alive owns over 5 times more wealth than the bottom 50% of American households, our country is rapidly moving towards oligarchy. That is unacceptable. We must create an economy and a government that works for all of us, not just the billionaire class.
For decades, Sec. Kennedy has spread lies about vaccines. Now, his misinformation will lead to preventable illness & death. Firing independent experts is a dangerous move that makes it harder for Americans to access vaccines that are safe, effective & essential to saving lives.
Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in California is not about the protests. It is about expanding his never-ending grasp for more power. It is about moving this country toward authoritarianism. All Americans must stand together against this gross abuse of power.
