Yesterday, I had the honor of speaking to the historic NASA Artemis crew. I asked MD native & Commander Reid Wiseman what advice he'd give any young person looking to follow in his footsteps. His message: explore & keep trying. Learning how to fail can be the key to success.

The last time Secretary Lutnick appeared before the Senate, I pressed him on his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. On Feb 27th, @merkley.senate.gov & I sent him a letter asking him for certain records and to answer questions. He did not respond. The American people deserve transparency.
As Trump ramps up his threats of war against Cuba, we must understand what led us to this point: 65 years of a bankrupt Cuba policy. If we want to avoid war with Cuba, we must rein in this lawless President & learn from the failed, bipartisan policies that led us to this point.
24 sources told The Atlantic that Kash Patel’s heavy drinking impeded his ability to do his job. He denied it. He also told provable lies during this hearing. And at the end, he refused to acknowledge that is a crime to lie to Congress. It is.
Our Ambassadors should have a basic understanding of the Constitution. But apparently, that's too much to ask of this Admin. Trump's pick to be Ambassador to El Salvador (who was also Noem's deputy at DHS) had trouble answering basic questions about our Constitution.
Netanyahu says he’s 'saddened' by images of an IDF soldier defacing a crucifix in Lebanon. But if he truly cared about attacks against Christians, he’d end rampant settler violence against them in the West Bank & harassment in Jerusalem. Being sad isn't enough, DO SOMETHING!
I'll say it again: we could fully fund TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard & other agencies within DHS TODAY. But Republicans keep blocking those efforts because they want a blank check for ICE & CBP.
The illegal war that Trump and Netanyahu started against Iran has been one disaster after the next. When you're digging yourself into a hole, the best way out is to stop digging.
Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility. Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit. Here's some of what we learned:
Last year Trump slashed funds for healthcare & food programs. Now he's spending $1 BILLION PER DAY on his war of choice in Iran. While millions here at home can't afford their basic needs, Trump is spending billions on a regime change war that's making us less safe.
Trump is already spending $1 BILLION PER DAY on his illegal regime change war of choice in Iran. Now, he's going to ask Congress to give him up to $50 BILLION MORE. My vote: hell NO.
Three children allegedly burglarized two different gas stations in Albany County; the youngest just 10 years old. I stopped by the Sunoco Country Stop & Shop in Altamont where employees showed me what happened on camera. cbs6albany.com/news/local/t...
Trump is “increasingly desperate” because he is not in a “dominant position” and “cannot dictate terms,” while “the Iranians are not going to accept a ceasefire that puts them in the same position as Lebanon and Gaza,” says @tparsi.bsky.social of the Quincy Institute.

@mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social: Donald Trump and Republicans are taking away programs families rely on and spiking the cost of everything else.

Pam Bondi's fake briefing on Epstein was shameful. She's clearly trying to get out of her real hearing that will be transcribed and UNDER OATH. We won't participate in these games, and we look forward to her deposition—which is required by our bipartisan subpoena and the law.

The Israeli ambassador to the UN says it might be time to confront those promoting antisemitism online and hosting anti-semitic podcasts. He insists we must fight this because it won't go away; it is a war we have to stand up and fight.
