    I spent this morning at Denham Springs HS talking to a group of 10th graders in AP American Government. We discussed our nation's blueprint, the constitution, and how it has stood the test of time. It is imperative that students across our country understand how our govt works.

    There is no doubt in my mind that Jamal Khashoggi was killed and that Saudi Arabia was behind it. Jamal Khashoggi didn’t just fall through a hole in the universe. I trust most middle-eastern countries about as much as I trust gas station sushi.

    I spoke on the floor of the U.S. Senate today about the importance of giving folks access to reliable, affordable health care options. We need to explore allowing groups to band together, potentially across state lines, to buy health insurance.

    I’m pleased to announce that signed the Music Modernization Act into law. Earlier this year, Smokey Robinson came to to testify on behalf of this legislation. Art makes us more humane. It helps us find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.

    Friends on the Florida Gulf Coast, be prepared and listen to directions from your state and local officials about potential evacuation mandates. I hope all of those in Hurricane Michael’s path stay safe and dry over the next few days.

    After months of deliberation, hearings and investigations, today I voted to confirm Judge Kavanaugh to be the next Associate Justice of the US Supreme Court. He’s whip-smart. He believes that the role of a judge is to determine what the law is and not what the law ought to be.

    For me, today is a day of hope. We’re going to approve the appointment of a new Supreme Court justice who understands the court’s role and the Madisonian separation of powers.

    I had coffee this morning w/ Capitol Police officers to celebrate Coffee with a Cop Day. If you hate cops, just because they’re cops then the next time you get in trouble call a crackhead. They do great work, & I’m very thankful for their dedication to our security on the Hill.

    This is not a political game. I’m interested in the facts. And I have to hear Dr. Ford’s story and then I want to hear Judge Kavanaugh’s story. Let’s get the facts.
