I am delighted that 3 Israeli hostages have been released today.

The immediate goal is that the ceasefire must hold, the hostage-prisoner exchange must be completed, and massive humanitarian aid must reach starving Palestinians.

As someone who was on the Hill that day, I'm grateful to the officers who put their lives on the line to defend myself and my colleagues.

President Trump: You do not stand for law and order when you give a free pass to rioters who attacked the police.

Today, Pres. Trump gave a sweeping legal reprieve to nearly 1,600 defendants who attacked the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, including those convicted of violent crimes & seditious conspiracy.

More than 150 police officers were assaulted during that attack. Some eventually died.
