Tomorrow, the Oversight Committee will have the opportunity to question Les Wexner about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Survivors told us from day one: follow the money. That is exactly what we intend to do.

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says most white-collar work "will be fully automated by an AI within the next 12 to 18 months.”

If that’s true, it’s an economic earthquake.

We need a moratorium on new AI data centers to make sure AI works for workers, not just billionaires.

Many people have told me I should change my last name, but instead, Donald should change his.

"Donald Epstein" has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

If a president wants to hear only “nice things about me”, he shouldn’t seek the office in the first place.

If someone in his orbit proactively erases a dissenting voice FOR a president, the regime isn’t working for PEOPLE.

Even far-right foreign leaders are getting sick of Trump’s meddling

Seldom, if ever, have U.S. presidents interceded as brazenly as Trump has done in foreign politics.

Gotta wonder just how think of a bubble Steven A. Smith has around him that he can somehow believe there's a large-enough constituency out there that could vote him into the Presidency.

Today, I'm proud to announce that we've erased over $1.1 billion in medical debt for more than half a million Illinoisans.

No one should be forced to choose between life-saving care and feeding their families.

Stay tuned for more news on affordability in Illinois tomorrow.

I don't think "invading a country, kidnapping its President, then stealing its oil" is what I would call "diplomacy."

But perhaps I'm not a political science expert like some folks.
Chris Wright on seized Venezuelan oil: "We've sold about $1 billion of oil so far. We've recently signed agreements to sell about another $5 billion in the next several months. So you're talking well north of $10 billion a year ... this is way out of the box, groundbreaking Trump diplomacy."

There's a severe disconnect between what voters of all stripes (red/blue) think the government's goal is and what the actual goal is.

Most all voters want: stable economy, jobs, a promising future, safe streets.

The current regime's goals are none of that.

Let me tell you about the SAVE Act. You need to know about it.

It’s Trump’s first (of likely many) major attempt to rig the election in his favor. It takes away the right to vote for millions and allows your voting records to be erased. We cannot let it pass the Senate.
