Senator Dick Durbin

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.

President Trump is pushing the SAVE America Act because he knows his only chance of winning in 2026 is to disenfranchise the millions of Americans who are fed up with his chaotic, cruel presidency.
FISA Section 702 is supposed to be for gathering intelligence on foreigners located abroad. But it has been used and abused for spying on Americans right here at home—including protesters, journalists, and even women on dating apps and rental tenants. Reform 702 now.
President Trump’s constant impulsiveness is something we’ve come to expect from him. But his instability poses real risks to America’s economy and our service members abroad.
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.
Over the weekend, Senate Democrats successfully challenged Republicans’ attempt to give $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to President Trump’s ballroom. This is a big win, and we’ll continue to fight against such a colossal waste of resources as they scramble to redraft.
Americans don’t need to go through more paperwork and bureaucracy to vote. But that is exactly what the SAVE America Act would straddle seniors, veterans, and millions of other U.S. citizens with.
The SAVE America Act would make it harder for millions of Americans, including married women, seniors, and veterans to vote. That is an affront to our democracy, and I will be voting no.
If you can’t acknowledge what happened on January 6th, then what the hell good are you? These Trump U.S. Attorney nominees are terrible.
President Trump promised his White House ballroom wouldn’t cost the American taxpayer a penny. Now, he’s pushing Republicans in Congress to allocate $1 billion for its construction. Just another one of his broken promises.
My mom’s naturalization certificate sits on the credenza behind my desk in the Capitol, so anyone who walks into my office knows that I am proud to be the son of an immigrant.

The same in his warped brain. Trump lied his way into a job he knew he couldn’t do because he didn’t respect the people who did it and made it look easier than it actually was. The first time, now, he came into office, he was prepared to ruin the world and steal everything that wasn’t nailed down.

Russia: New building construction in Tyumen, occupied Siberia. Such issues are systemic and nationwide as Russian developers cut corners because of a sharp rise in cost of construction materials over the last few years.
Mom used to always offer to take the Memorial Day shift at work because she liked the holiday pay and "because the weather's always crappy on Memorial Day." It started raining by noon, dropped 20 degrees. I could feel her laughing from the post-worldwalk. So I decided to put wax on my Layens frames.

Trump’s OPM wants to impose NDAs across the fed workforce. It isn’t really about protecting “confidential government information.” It's about intimidation and making public servants think twice before exposing misconduct, waste, abuse, or criticism the administration doesn’t want the public to hear
Most Social Media and media are being purchased and taken over by Trump's billionaire oligarch friends and supporters. The media always enable fascism.
probably too busy counting other people‘s money to concentrate on something as silly as his actual job

MacFarlane: There is a consequence for the party having Paxton as the nominee. They're going to have to marshal a lot of money to fight this fight. But there are also a couple competitive U.S. House races on the southern border… a deflated party could make those even more competitive.
