The US deficit is approaching ww2 levels as a percent of GDP.
Because of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that GOP voted for.
We are spending more on INTEREST than on anything else including the military.
This is a time bomb, and the GOP is responsible. Fiscal conservative my ass

Donald Trump won this district in Louisiana by 13 points in 2024.
The Democrat just crushed a Republican extremist in this district by 24 points.
Folks, that’s a 37 point swing to the left. We can compete everywhere and win anywhere. Let’s keep this up!

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

The US is traumatizing thousands of kids in detention camps. But we are also traumatizing *millions* of kids who are in hiding or fear their parents being snatched.
Like how we have tens of thousands of kids who have survived school shootings, and a whole generation shaped by active shooter drills.

When training for a pilot's license, the most important rule is "fly the plane". Despite the distractions or other important tasks, don't forget that rule. Much like the situation we're in now. Fly the democracy, no matter how they try to distract. Vote. Educate. Participate.

Blumenthal: ICE and CBP are out of control. The practices of this agency have to be completely overhauled. It’s like a corporation in bankruptcy—either dissolved or reorganized. They’re morally bankrupt, legally bankrupt, and politically bankrupt.

It's obvious but still striking to consider that we have a United States government driven solely by one man's emotional dysregulation and dysfunction.

AOC: We are going to have to reckon, as a country, with this time. And I hope that that reckoning includes prosecution of people who are involved with the lawbreaking and human rights violations they are knowingly engaging in right now.

Russia continues to answer diplomacy with missiles.
We are determined to make that choice painfully expensive.
Today, we present our 20th sanctions package.
Sanctions severely hurt Russia’s economy.
And every sanction chips away at its capacity for war. (1/9)

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.
