The Trump administration has moved to allow drilling, mining, and construction in all endangered species' habitats.

Call it the Trump effect.

The father ICE shot and killed wasn’t even the person they were looking for. These monsters are sick.

Trump and his Republican cronies know they’re about to get wiped out in the midterms, so they’re doing everything they can to rig the game for themselves. The DNC is ready to fight back, defend our elections, and ensure the people pick their leaders.

Trump announces he will not sign the bipartisan housing affordability bill

Reports that the White House has dismissed the remaining members of the Election Assistance Commission — all of whom were unanimously confirmed by the Senate, including a commissioner appointed by President Trump himself — should concern every American, regardless of party, because the EAC was established by Congress as an independent, bipartisan body to help states administer secure and credible elections. If these reports are accurate, removing every remaining commissioner just months before the 2026 midterm elections is an extraordinary step that demands an immediate explanation from the administration and raises profound concerns about political interference in the institutions that support our elections.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's last words were "me están matando"—they are killing me. Under Donald Trump, ICE has become a rogue and abusive agency. ICE is killing people in the streets. Targeting Latinos because of the color of their skin, the language they speak, and the jobs they hold. Locking away innocent children. Colluding with the likes of Governor Abbott to target communities. All to fuel the President's mass deportation for profit machine. I stand with my colleagues in Congress and with the entire nation in demanding justice, including a transparent investigation and the release of all footage and evidence. I am also demanding ICE provide a full accounting of the men who were locked away after the shooting. Lorenzo's death is a tragedy. His wife has lost her husband. His sons have lost their father. We cannot allow this to happen again.

While rural hospitals were closing, families were struggling to afford health care, and Georgians were wondering how they would pay their medical bills, Rick Jackson got richer through his taxpayer-funded health care company. Georgians deserve better.

Translation: California made it illegal for Elon Musk to buy elections. And next, we’re going to make it a felony for Donald Trump to rig one. Watch out.

Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files. Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why.  We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.

The ICE agents who shot and killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo were searching for a different person, per a DHS spokesperson.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a father of three. He lived in Houston for 35 years. On his way to work, ICE agents shot and killed him. His family learned from a video posted online. There must be accountability. We need a full, independent investigation.

There is no greater path to reach the middle class than through labor. I visited Philadelphia to chat with Mayor @PeopleforParker, State Rep. @malcolmkenyatta, and local labor leaders about building power for working people.

A diarrhea-causing parasite has now infected over 1,000 Americans, spreading across 29 states. Last year, RFK Jr and Elon Musk dissolved the CDC office responsible for preventing parasitic infections.

Trump’s ICE shot and killed a father in Houston. Lorenzo’s family deserves answers and accountability. There must be an independent investigation.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a husband and father who spent the past 35 years working in Houston. On Tuesday, an ICE agent in an unmarked vehicle shot and killed him while he was on his way to work. His family deserves justice, accountability, and an independent investigation.

I have been closely monitoring reports about yesterday’s ICE shooting, and what I’ve seen is alarming. Let me be clear: the targeting of our communities is making us less safe, not more safe. Texans, and all Americans, deserve full transparency about this shooting, including the release of body camera and dashcam footage, and I join the calls for a transparent investigation that includes state Rangers to begin as quickly as possible.

ICE shot and killed Lorenzo Araujo yesterday. ICE says he drove his car at them. But that's what ICE said about Renee Good, which was a lie. That's what they said after killling Ruben Ray Martinez, and that was a lie. We need an independent investigation and accountability.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was a husband and father, living and working in Houston for 35 years. Yesterday, an ICE agent shot and killed him. I join the family in demanding a full investigation and have urged ICE to release all body-camera and dash-camera footage, as well as any communications from agents before and after the shooting. My prayers are with the family and the entire Houston community grieving this tragic loss. His family and Texans deserve answers, accountability, and justice.
