Very glad to see @NewYorkStateAG leading New York and 11 other states in challenging the Paramount merger, which reeks of political manipulation and monopolization, and would be a disaster for workers in the entertainment industry and American consumers.   Donald Trump fired his Antitrust Chief to push through this merger and create a media ecosystem to say whatever he wants and suffocate independent voices, while raising costs and harming the quality of our television and cinema. We must not allow this under any circumstances, and today’s action by 12 Attorneys General is a great first step towards preventing it.

Donald Trump is trying to cast doubt on 2020 to justify interfering in 2026. We see what he is doing and it will not work. Stay vigilant.

Donald Trump’s spiral continues. The failed president, pocketing billions as he drives up prices, is afraid to lose the midterms. So he will reheat debunked election conspiracy theories and tell bizarre new lies to deny his 2020 defeat and attack voting rights. This is a disaster for Trump puppet Mike Collins. Already mired in scandal, Mike will now have to double down on conspiracy theories toxic in the General Election. From the start, Trump’s obsession with Georgia elections revealed his fury that Black voters were instrumental to his defeat. I'm asking concerned citizens nationwide to join me and support our voter protection efforts in Georgia.

NEWS: President Trump is planning to announce that Georgia's two senators, Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, are illegitimate because of fraud, a well-placed source in Georgia tells us. Announcement could come as soon as tonight.

Donald Trump is saying the quiet part out loud: He has no issue with shutting the federal government down to force through his voter suppression bill to disenfranchise millions of American citizens.

Acting AG Todd Blanche has spent this confirmation fight doing what he's always done for his client Donald Trump: Denying the obvious, defending the indefensible, and lying under oath. He's already made it clear that we can’t trust a word that comes out of his mouth.

Donald Trump's so-called “understanding” with Iran fell apart faster than the ink could dry. The House and Senate both voted to remove our forces from harm’s way and end this war now. Trump must comply. Enough is enough. End the war.

BREAKING: We just got a big win against Trump’s two-billion-dollar taxpayer-funded MAGA slush fund and his family’s sweetheart tax fraud deal. The American people knew it was patently corrupt. Yet Republicans blocked every single Democratic effort to unwind it, choosing Trump’s corrupt deal over the American taxpayer. Democrats will continue to fight against Trump and his family’s blatant corruption by all means possible.

Donald Trump is one of the weakest, most thin-skinned individuals the world has ever seen.    Reporters have the right and duty to report the truth. It’s not their fault his foreign-gifted plane is a national security threat.    This subpoena is a gross overreach and a disgusting misuse of federal law enforcement resources that should alarm every American.

The Trump administration issued subpoenas to New York Times journalists who wrote about the new Air Force One, an escalation of pressure on the media. nyti.ms/44k07x4

Millions of Americans are being crushed by housing costs. Donald Trump called their crisis “a big yawn”—then refused to sign the most significant bipartisan housing bill in decades. His priorities couldn’t be clearer: higher costs for families and more power for himself.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Trump: "I will not sign the Housing Bill, which has been fully approved by Congress and sent to the White House, in PROTEST over the fact that the United States Senate is not capable of passing THE SAVE AMERICA ACT, which is polling at 97% with the Republican Party, and very high with the non-politician Dumocrats."

Donald Trump said Republicans should “take over the voting.” Today, he took another step toward doing exactly that. Firing every remaining member of the bipartisan Election Assistance Commission months before the midterms is a brazen attempt to seize control of our elections before a single vote is cast. He is gutting the independent agency that certifies voting systems and helps election officials run secure elections. Senate Democrats will fight this power grab at every turn. The American people—not Donald Trump—will decide the 2026 election.

Trump’s shameless self-enrichment has turned into a serious national security threat. His rampant, reckless, and rotten corruption comes at a real cost to our safety and Americans’ bank accounts. A year ago, I warned that this $400 million Qatari jet was not simply the largest, most corrupt foreign bribe to an American president in history – it was also a grave national security risk. That’s why I introduced the Presidential Airlift Security Act, which would prohibit the use of any foreign plane to be utilized as Air Force One. Republicans refused to join our effort to block taxpayer funding for the jet. They let the President waste nearly $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to retrofit and operate his luxury jet – and yet it’s still not secure. When the Senate returns, we must pass the Presidential Airlift Security Act and ensure that not another cent goes toward maintaining Trump’s national security nightmare.

The Secret Service advised that President Trump take the old Air Force One to leave Turkey on Wednesday instead of the new plane donated by Qatar, people briefed on the situation told CBS News, highlighting questions about the security of the president's new plane. cbsn.ws/44mmH8d

There must be a full, independent, and transparent investigation into the shooting that led to Lorenzo Salgado Araujo’s death. ICE has routinely unleashed chaos and violence on our streets. Democrats will keep fighting for reforms to rein in ICE and end the violence.

Donald Trump’s presidency is defined by destruction, chaos, illegal wars, and rising costs.  He never had a serious plan for stopping his war.  Senate Democrats remain united in our efforts to end this illegal war immediately and permanently.

Q: Is the ceasefire over? Is the MOU dead? TRUMP: I think it's over. I don't want to deal with them anymore. They're scum. Do you know what scum is? They're led by sick people. They're vicious, violent people. They're liars. They're cuckoo
