16 years ago today, the Deepwater Horizon disaster killed 11 workers and devastated the Gulf. DOI wants to recombine bureaus that were split up after investigations exposed failed oversight, while rolling back safeguards put in place after the disaster—jeopardizing worker safety + the environment.

One of my amendments was simple: NO TRUMP ARCH! Most Americans oppose it. Veterans groups oppose it. It’s a huge waste of taxpayer money. Republicans say there’s no funding in the bill for an arch anyway. You think Trump cares about Congressional approval!? They can't stand up to him on ANYTHING!

What a shitshow in DC this week! The good news: The Senate failed to pass a reconciliation bill that would’ve given MORE money to ICE—in defiance over Trump’s crazy demand that it include a $1.776 BILLION slush fund for his cronies (including J6 insurrectionists). 1776? Seriously? So gross. (1/2)

Apparently Republicans are fine with slashing the EPA by 20%, cutting water infrastructure funding, and eliminating cultural programs in our communities. As long as Trump gets his ridiculous ballroom and triumphal arch! This isn’t “fiscal responsibility.” It’s partisan BS—and completely tone-deaf.

Fishing and lobstering are central to Maine’s economy. But seafood + aquaculture are often left out of vital USDA programs. I was proud to support a Farm Bill amendment to make USDA’s Office of Seafood permanent, ensuring fishermen + seafood producers can access the same resources farmers rely on.

It’s so rare to get to share some good news. But I'm overwhelmed with joy to share that Olivia Andre WILL BE released from Dilley! A judge just signed the order today. ICE must release Olivia without delay so she can be reunited with her family and begin to heal where she belongs: at home in Maine.

Democrats tried to bring another War Powers Resolution to the floor. Republicans immediately blocked it. Americans are fed up with this Republican Congress. The’ve given all of our power to Trump, who now has us engaged in a stupid war no one asked for. Killing in OUR name using YOUR tax dollars.

They don’t call it “breaking bread” for nothing! Today’s markup lunch: Idaho fries from Rep. Simpson + my homemade wild Maine blueberry pies (leave it to a Mainer to whip up 8 pies in a morning!). Maybe after this we can come back to the table and make this funding bill bipartisan! One can hope.

I met with some protestors outside the Dilley ICE facility, where families and children are being held for months on end. As this proud vet said, this is NOT ok. It's NOT what we stand for as Americans. It's NOT how our taxpayer dollars should be spent. Shut. It. Down. And release the families!

Crazy week ahead. Republicans refuse to negotiate on DHS—but have a bill to allow lead bullets for hunting. PRIORITIES! Meanwhile, the FCC Chair is outrageously threatening to revoke broadcast licenses. Democrats are demanding accountability—on this insane war, the Epstein files, DHS, all of it.

CJ McCollum on Jonathan Kuminga: “He has championship DNA coming from the Warriors. The athleticism is off the charts. He’s got a mid-range. He knows how to post up, screen, and defensively, he can guard 1-5. He was in a not so great situation and now he's found a happy home.”

Interceptor STING takes down 5 more enemy drones 🚀 Operators of the 1020 Anti-Aircraft Missile and Artillery Regiment downed 4 Shaheds, as well as 1 Italmas drone, which can cover distances of up to 500 km at speeds of 120–170 km/h. 1/2

Η κάμερα του #UAV Gerbera βλέπει το κτίριο της Verkhovna Rada της Ουκρανίας στο Κίεβο. Όπως μπορείτε να δείτε, ακόμη και ένα τόσο απλό και φτηνό #drone μπορεί άνετα να πετά πάνω από κυβερνητικές εγκαταστάσεις στην πρωτεύουσα της Ουκρανίας. Επομένως

Iskreno, malo sam skeptičan glede Petera Mađara zbog toga što cela nacija vuče taj resentiman za sobom i dugo godina se neke njihove politike grade oko tzv. trijanonske traume ali neke od prvih izjava koje sam čuo su jako obećavajuće.

CPJ honors the legacy of veteran Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh on the 4th anniversary of her murder. “Shireen, for 25 years, she carried the voice of all Palestinians, and reported it to the world through a small tv screen,” Abu Akleh’s niece, Lina, told CPJ. cpj.org?p=587168

Jeffries toured Delaney Hall. Called for it to be shut down. Health inspectors blocked. The Trump regime is running a prison camp it won’t let anyone inspect. That is not an accident. That is a cover-up.
