Senator Dick Durbin

If President Trump cannot admit he lost in 2020, how can we expect him to honor the results of the upcoming midterm elections? His refusal to accept basic reality endangers our democracy.

A judge found that DHS deliberately violated the El Gamal family’s due process rights & recommended they be released from detention. They are not a flight risk or a threat to their community. Further detention is unjustified & would be an expression of this Administration’s anti-immigrant animus.
One of the fundamentals of a democracy is that losers will accept the results of a free and fair election. The President and his allies’ attacks on Americans’ voting rights and continued election denialism are challenging this principle in ways never seen before.
I brought a pocket Constitution to the Senate floor to give Congressional Republicans a civics lesson. Only Congress, not the President, has the power to declare war.
President Trump’s war with Iran sent gas and diesel prices through the roof, all without any clear or coherent endgame. You are paying more at the pump because of the President’s foreign policy whims.
Congress can do two things right now to hold Big Tech accountable. Repeal Section 230. Open the courtrooms for families. Put people first—not social media companies.
When discussing a bill that would tackle housing affordability, Trump reportedly said, “no one gives a [bleep] about housing,” insisting Republicans focus on his voter disenfranchisement bill, the SAVE America Act, instead. This Admin would rather undermine democracy than lower costs for families.
Men and women in uniform swore an oath to protect and uphold the Constitution. The SAVE America Act would mean these service members would no longer be able to show just their military ID to register to vote.
Our economy lost 92,000 jobs last month. President Trump’s chaotic tariffs, mass firings of federal employees, and federal grant cuts have weakened our economy and forced Americans to pay more for essentials.
Donald Trump’s weaponized Justice Department just settled with… Donald Trump. What’d he get? A slush fund of $1.776 billion dollars for himself, his allies, and violent insurrectionists. He’s out for himself—not you.
Today, Republicans left town without funding Trump’s mass deportations, billionaire ballroom, or his January 6 slush fund. We will remain ready to challenge these horrendous wastes of taxpayer dollars when they return.
WATCH — @neguse.house.gov: “You can see why I would be very skeptical of a resolution that says ‘the Trump Admin’s focus on restoring law and order’ when his very first action in office was to pardon violent felons.”

Continuing President Trump’s illegal war in Iran only weakens America while driving up costs for working families. A prolonged conflict drains our resources and creates new opportunities for our adversaries.
13 years ago I was totally filled with negative feelings. My head in my hands. No sense of when relief was coming or how. My mental tipped over. Existential panic and defeat. I promised i'd never reach that point again. I took back myself from myself. I need to do it again.
Is truth now the front line for comedy? On this episode of Stories and Strategies, I spoke with Michael Siegers of Zulu Alpha Kilo on why humour works when it reflects something people already recognise, and why the hardest part is saying something honest without causing harm.
Fox & Friends co-host: “I wish the talking point of that the strait was open before the conflict, people got to stop doing it. It was a beautiful day the morning of 9/11.”
