@RepBethVanDuyne More of the same from you, Congresswoman from gerrymandered TX-24. Disappointing. Calling this “massive relief” misses the mark and is disingenuous. Refunds are just overpaid taxes being returned to taxpayers, and this year many working families are seeing less of it, not more.

Ukraine has cards!
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa

Russian losses this March have reached their highest level since the start of the war: our drone strikes alone resulted in 33,988 Russian servicemembers killed or seriously wounded, while artillery and other strikes eliminated another 1,363 Russian occupiers. That means more than 35,000 Russian losses in just one month – and these are clearly verified losses. We have video documentation of every such strike in our system. I thank all our warriors for their precision. I will especially recognize the warriors of the Special Operations Center “A” of Ukraine’s Security Service, the “Magyar's Birds,” the State Border Guard Service special unit “Phoenix,” “Lasar’s Group,” and the 95th Separate Airborne Assault Brigade – these are the most effective units in the use of drones. The Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Mykhailo Fedorov, briefed me on the performance of all units at the front. We have clear and verified reports for every direction and every type of strike. We are ready to provide the relevant data to our partners. Essentially, Ukraine’s Defense and Security Forces have denied the occupier the ability to dictate the situation on the front line. Importantly, the results in the destruction of Russia’s air defense systems have also significantly increased, with 274 such systems hit in March alone. There have also been tangible results in the destruction of Russian depots and military logistics. The Ministry of Defense, together with the Armed Forces, will present a detailed report to the public for March – data that may be made public. I also approved with the Minister today a number of tasks for the coming weeks. In particular, we are preparing decisions to strengthen the Ukrainian infantry, the army contract system, and measures to address AWOL cases – measures that must genuinely work in practice. We are also preparing decisions to scale up the export opportunities of our weapons manufacturers and joint productions with partners. I thank our Defense Forces for the results! Glory to Ukraine!

Value and respect your opinion, Mr. Smerconish, but fail to see the logic. Pakistan, North Korea and Israel have uranium and/or plutonium stockpiles and nuclear weapons. Are you prepared to secure their stockpiles, and where do you stop and draw the line? Seems like you are advocating for a “fight of choice” with Iran. Your approach would further strain our alliances over the Strait of Hormuz, and distract from where our credibility actually matters - supporting Ukraine against real aggression.

We’re in Iran. The question now isn’t how we got here—it’s what we do next. If nearly bomb-grade uranium is unaccounted for, can we really walk away? We Can't Leave Without the Nuclear Material. Watch now: youtu.be/zh4Qgpkiv1M

1500 days of full, brutal war. 1500 days of pain, sorrow and devastation. But also — 1500 days of ironclad resistance, inspiring courage, resilient defiance, and stubborn solidarity. For 1500 days, Ukrainians stand as one, supported by our friends. #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

@RepBethVanDuyne Nope. Not reality. No evidence non-citizens are voting at any scale, and U.S. elections already require citizenship. Real election integrity means making voting secure accessible - not pushing misleading claims to justify new barriers.

The most important person to a D.C. Democrat right now is an illegal immigrant… Over 80% of Americans want to see Voter ID and ensure only American citizens are voting in federal elections so we have far stronger election integrity. The solution is simple: pass the SAVE America Act and secure our elections.

@RepBethVanDuyne ICYW Accuracy - this isn’t ‘no tax.’ It’s partial relief with limits and fine print - and workers still pay payroll taxes. Let’s not oversell it.

Really? That’s your concern. This isn’t about giving Trump a “win” - it’s about you, Congresswoman, and the Republican-controlled Congress doing its Constitutional job on war powers. You either authorize it with clear limits or oppose it outright - but please stop treating this Trump war of choice like a partisan game. It’s not.

Overnight, Russia launched 339 drones against Ukraine. Strikes hit civilian sites: food warehouses, a Nova Post terminal, and residential buildings. While Ukraine pushes for an Easter ceasefire, Russia answers with more drones and strikes. Stronger air defense and tougher sanctions will save lives and bring peace closer.

What’s unstated - Congress has a choice to make here. Authorize Trump’s war of choice, and, as noted in the article, do so with limits, objectives, and a way out. And if it’s not authorized, bring our troops home. nytimes.com/2026/04/01/opi… via @NYTOpinion

Oh, please. Here you go again! Be honest about what this is. The Democrats offered to fund DHS, and the Republicans rejected it because it didn’t include ICE and CBP. That’s not Democrats blocking security. That’s Republicans choosing a political fight over a functioning government. Americans and your constituents voted for real priorities - end the war of choice with Iran that Trump and the Republican Party started, bring down gas prices, tackle inflation, lower healthcare costs, and stop the insider deals and vanity projects like that absurd ballroom.

Washington Democrats are making their priorities clear. Blocking full funding for the Department of Homeland Security goes directly against what Americans voted for last November.

@RepBethVanDuyne No evidence of non-citizen voting - it’s very, very rare. The real issue is ensuring eligible Americans can vote without barriers. Your constituents know the SAVE Act creates onerous barriers. Please do better if you can, Congresswoman from gerrymandered TX-24.

We must pass the SAVE America Act to strengthen the integrity of our federal elections. The majority of Americans agree with just that. Senate Democrats should listen to their constituents and safeguard our U.S. elections and ensure only American citizens are voting.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
Last night, the Russians launched a massive strike on Odesa. There was no military purpose whatsoever – this was pure terror against ordinary civilian life. Over 60 drones were used in the strike on the city. Sadly, there is extensive damage. Among the sites hit were a maternity hospital, ordinary residential buildings, businesses, as well as the port and critical infrastructure. Our services continue to work on the ground wherever needed, providing assistance. Tragically, as of now, one person has been reported killed. My condolences to their family and loved ones. More than ten people have been wounded, including a child. There were also strikes overnight in the Poltava and Dnipro regions. Each such strike proves that Russia has no intention of ending this war. That is why any easing of pressure on it is dangerous. And coordinated efforts to protect people and lives will help us, help our country’s defense and our diplomacy. I thank all our partners who are working with us and supporting our people. We are working with everyone to give our country more strength and more capacity to protect life in Ukraine every day and every night: our cities and villages, our infrastructure. Collective defense and coordinated action can deliver the most effective results.

Donald Trump got the Director of the US Patent and Trade Office to apply for trademarks for the Board of Peace—something it does for no other entity and which is not allowed under federal law. Then he waived the fee for registration. Now he’ll decide whether to grant the application he submitted! No one knows what this Board of Peace is or where the billions of dollars gathered from corrupt foreign states will go. We're exposing this devious scheme.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: "I think all over the country, people are saying, 'Wait a minute, we can't afford housing. We can't afford health care. We can't afford childcare. We can't afford food at the grocery store.' And this war now, which will cost hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars, why? Why the bomb buildings in Tehran? Why force a million people in Lebanon from their homes? So it's not just progressives and Democrats...I think the polling suggests that whether you're Republicans or Democrats, this is not a war that the American people want."
