Before Donald Trump launched this unnecessary and costly war, the Strait of Hormuz was open, gas was $1 less and 13 more American servicemembers were alive. Only someone as deeply incompetent, del...

Newly married, assigned to Fort Polk and planning to start their life together. 

How does Trump congratulate this American who volunteered to serve his country?
 
By detaining his wife.
 
There ar...

Donald Trump just threatened to unilaterally destroy an entire civilization. Is there genuinely no limit to what Republicans will allow this unhinged, unwell man to do? Congress must come back t...

Happy Easter! May this Sunday of renewal be filled with family, love and hope.

Rescued! Grateful to the brave servicemembers who put themselves in danger to find the missing crew member behind enemy lines.

Look, no one likes to take their shoes off at the airport. But after getting rid of the “Shoes Off” policy, Noem’s own IG warned her that she created a “new security vulnerability.” This is how w...

As someone shot down behind enemy lines, my heart goes out to the crew members and their loved ones who are waiting for answers. It's a relief one servicemember has been found and rescued, and I'm ...

Tonight was a nationally-televised, Truth Social post with zero concepts of a plan. Trump can say we’re winning a war no one asked for—and that gas prices aren’t skyrocketing. But we all know the ...

Chag Sameach to our Jewish neighbors in Illinois and across the country! Wishing you all a peaceful and joyous Passover.

Pam Bondi turned our Department of Justice into the Department of Corruption, protecting pedophiles and going after Trump's enemies list at the expense of the American people. Good riddance. Now, ...

El Paso. Fort Hancock. DCA. Has this Administration learned nothing? Certainly doesn't feel like the time nor the place for this, but if Hegseth insists, Congress and the American people deserve...

Democrats refused to cut another blank check for ICE and Border Patrol because we don’t think the government should be executing Americans in the streets. That’s not “enforcing immigration laws,” ...

He says he wants to bring meritocracy back to our military. He says he has our warfighters' backs. But here he is, the most unqualified SecDef in history, denying troops a promotion that their fel...

Let’s be clear: Republicans have voted against Democrats’ proposals to pay TSA agents and fund FEMA and the Coast Guard 14 times. They control the Senate, the House and the White House—and have ha...

Trump could have paid the TSA workers this whole time.

The ALERT Act that passed through House committees makes progress to address the NTSB's recommendations. But our work is far from done. Any legislation that becomes law must include a strong ADS-B...

In the last year, Trump's ICE arrested 125 Veterans—most without criminal warrants. They tried to deport 282 Vets and their family members. There is no higher betrayal to our Veterans than to be ...

"America first" was bullshit. With the $200 billion Trump wants for Iran, we could: — Fund a decade of free, universal preschool — Provide seniors with Medicare dental, vision and hearing coverag...

Here's your third chance, Senate Republicans. Consider your oaths. Think of our troops. Vote to end this illegal war before it takes any more lives. https://t.co/R8XfL6oTLf
