    Why is Trump refusing to allow his own intel officials to brief Congress on Jamal Khashoggi’s murder? Is he afraid it will be inconsistent with what he has been saying? Is he more interested in protecting the Saudi investments in Trump properties than getting to the truth?

    I’ve been working on budgets for decades—this is the classic GOP bait and switch. They give huge tax cuts to the wealthy and say their corporate giveaway is going to pay for itself. Spoiler alert: that’s not what’s happening. Now it’s up to us to expose this sham.

    From on Senator McConnell: "He's saying that the poor and the middle class should ultimately have to foot the bill for Trump's corporate tax cuts."

    Right after McConnell admits he wants to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security because corporate billionaires needed tax cuts—he now wants to try to repeal the Affordable Care Act again, hurting tens of millions. Do not let him get away with this.

    America’s commitment to human rights is not for sale. As President Trump continues to be the mouthpiece for the Saudi regime’s cover-up of the murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, this is very suspicious. Congress must hold the Saudi regime accountable.

    My public service career began with a Senate internship that I was only able to take because it was paid. In the same office was a young staffer named Chris Van Hollen. 32 years later, and I teamed up to do a fun video on why paying interns is important.👇

    Good news: My legislation to allocate funds to each Senate office to pay Senate interns was just signed into law last month. While we were fighting to get it passed in Congress, I sat down with to talk about why this is so important. Take a look ↓

    First, the GOP cuts taxes for billionaires and big corporations with no way to pay for it—adding trillions in debt. Now they want to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Translation: the rich and powerful come first while kids, working Americans, and seniors come last.

    (Bloomberg) -- Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says the U.S. budget deficit is "disturbing" and spending on entitlement programs must be addressed by both Republicans and Democrats.

    Pompeo’s job is to get the truth out—not to huddle with the Saudi regime to help them whitewash their heinous crime. The only thing they planned to “rendition” was Khashoggi’s body. Otherwise, why do you need a bone saw? The U.S. must not be complicit in this cover-up.

    Gonna be tough to explain how they intended to use a BONE SAW as part of an interrogation.

    Think about this for a second: The President of the United States is being used as the mouthpiece by the Saudi regime to cover up the murder of a US-based journalist. This Administration must sanction those responsible and suspend arms sales—not parrot the regime’s propaganda.

    Hungry Harvest has an incredible backstory. After coming up with the concept in his dorm basement, Evan Lutz struggled to get investors but didn’t give up. Now, they have over 40 employees and have reduced 9M pounds of food from going to the landfill. Keep up the good work!

    It’s astonishing that the GOP continues to label themselves as “deficit hawks.” For years, they’ve been spreading this false narrative that tax cuts for billionaires and big corporations are going to trickle down to the middle class. Turns out, it saddles them with debt instead.

    A remarkable trend that continues. Since 1981, the U.S. budget deficit has grown under every Republican president (Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, Trump so far) and fallen under every Democratic president (Clinton, Obama).

    President Trump’s suggestion that Khashoggi’s elaborately planned murder in the Saudi’s own consulate was orchestrated by “rogue killers” defies reality. Orders must have come from the top. The U.S. must not be complicit in an effort to cover-up this heinous crime.

    Trump is talking to reporters on the WH lawn right now and saying repeatedly that the Saudi's are denying killing Khashoggi. He also suggests it could have been "rogue killers" per pooler.

    It was great meeting with last week to talk about the important work done by our civil servants. We must fight back against President Trump's attacks on federal workers—from undermining civil service protections to cutting retirement benefits, and freezing their pay.

    Wages were growing faster when you tweeted this in 2015 than they are under your Administration. But profits for corporate billionaires have gone through the roof. Mr. President, this tweet clearly didn’t age well and neither will your economic policies.

    Wages in are country are too low, good jobs are too few, and people have lost faith in our leaders.We need smart and strong leadership now!

    Yesterday, we passed a resolution that I introduced with to honor Senator Joe Tydings. Every single Senator—Democrat and Republican—supported it. It’s a small way to pay our respects to a man who was a progressive champion and great public servant.

    It’s good news that Pastor Brunson has been released. But he is not the only one who has been unjustly imprisoned. We shouldn't lift sanctions on Turkish officials until Erdogan frees all innocent Americans and the Turkish nationals who’ve served in our embassies and consulates.

    The proof is in the numbers. Wages are stagnant—corporate profits are skyrocketing. Workers did not get $4,000 raises—special interests got windfalls. The middle class is not better off—billionaires are doing great. That’s the legacy of the Trump Tax Scheme.

    The last real wage numbers before November came this morning. The final verdict on the Trump economy is in: Corrupt.

    Today, we’re introducing a bipartisan bill to prohibit foreign adversaries from owning and controlling the companies supporting our elections. It’s called the Protect Our Elections Act. We need to get this done!
