Integrity has defined my brother’s service to our nation, as a combat veteran, astronaut, and US Senator. Any effort to undermine that is an abuse of power.
I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Joe McCarthy once thought about using a similar photo crop on Stalin and then he was like, ehhh, that’s a bit much.

A new documentary, "Thoughts and Prayers," looks at how gun violence has led to school lockdown drills becoming a universal part of childhood in America.

That sparked the growth of an entire industry of active shooter preparedness products.

There is no specific provision in the Constitution that says that U.S. attorneys must be legally appointed, so it's hard to understand why any judge would dismiss the cases against James Comey and Leticia James.

These are deeply evil men who are perjuring themselves so that a 70-year-old grandfather will die alone in federal prison for daring to stand up to their crimes.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Gabriel Fuentes, in dismissing Midway Blitz-related charges against Dana Briggs last week, said he was lifting restrictions on relevant video.

Today he made the video available through the clerk's office at no cost to the public. Here's the first.
