Dad. Proud Marylander. Congressman representing Maryland's 5th District. Chair of the U.S. House of Representatives Regional Leadership Council.
I am deeply disturbed that the Trump Administration sent Border Czar Tom Homan to Minneapolis to “reduce tensions.”
Homan’s disregard for democracy is no secret. Deploying a person who said he doesn’t “care what the judges think” does not represent a serious attempt at deescalation.

Trump may have changed course in his pursuit of Greenland, but his threats have undermined stability and strained our relationship with our NATO allies.
In attempting to make the United States look big on the map, he's made the nation look small in the eyes of the world.

Purchasing or seizing Greenland – both absurd ideas – would cost America dearly, alienating our allies and emboldening our enemies.
