I'm helping to lead a group of Senate Democrats who are planning to force a vote - every single week the Senate is in session - to end the war in Iran. We have that right under the Senate rules, and we are going to keep putting Republicans on record supporting this insane war.

No President in control of his senses would publicly promise to eradicate an entire civilization. That's why I agree with Republicans who have put the 25th Amendment on the table. Trump seems to be taking us on a path to mass war crimes. That's a path we cannot accept.
Trump is suspending sanctions on Iran and Russia, which will put over $15 billion in their treasuries to help them fund the wars against us. It’s stunning. We have never ever seen this level of war incompetence in American history.
Casey Means, Trump's nominee to be Surgeon General, makes her living promoting questionable medical products online. I confronted her in today's nomination hearing over her practice of regularly illegally hiding that she is getting paid to promote these products.
No matter what Trump talks about tonight, remember he only cares about 3 or 4 things: covering up the Epstein scandal, convincing people he won the 2020 election, stealing the 2024 election, and sometimes his ballroom.
The Trump Administration is considering asking Congress for new emergency spending for the Iran War. Hell no. This is our chance to draw a line in the sand and use our power to stop this war before it kills more Americans and sends the Middle East into more chaos.
Donald Trump won’t talk tonight about how ICE is tear-gassing elementary schools, murdering American citizens, and disappearing legal immigrants. Democrats position is clear: no more funding for ICE until they stop their lawlessness and abuse.
In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.
The billionaires’ kids will pay no price. But American kids have already died for a war of vanity and choice. A war that will result in hardline leadership remaining in Iran and no meaningful impact on their nuclear program. A likely moral and strategic disaster.
It’s a week later but I haven’t forgotten that President Trump is trying to arrest leaders in Congress who oppose him politically. Never before in the history of the country has this happened. And we shouldn’t normalize it.
Here's what I believe: no more business as usual in the Senate. We shouldn't be voting to proceed to normal legislation until Republicans schedule a debate and a vote and on a declaration of war against Iran. Let's see if Trump has the votes to authorize war. I bet he doesn't.

June 2025: We released a report warning that the B.C. government planned to log critical caribou habitat. October 2025: The logging has already begun. Southern mountain caribou are hanging on by a thread, and the B.C. government is still chipping away at their old-growth habitat.

In light of the disastrous Virginia ruling, it’s clear we can’t wait for the courts to save us. To protect our state and country, we need to run Democrats with track records of winning in Trump-dominated areas. I’ve done that three times. I’ll do it again as your nominee for Governor. #mepolitics
At this point, it’s undeniable: Donald Trump is unfit to serve as President. I’m done pretending this is normal — and I’m done with leaders who won’t speak up. The question is simple: are you okay with this, or will you stand up and stop it? app.sosha.ai/s/9hwYlYbJ

Megyn Kelly: "Trump's circle and the ones who are his campaign surrogates absolutely made a huge deal of the Epstein files. Trump got in there and acted like he'd never heard of this before… My best guess is it's his friends. It's his donors."
