FINALLY, Senate will push back on the President’s abuse of Section 232 to impose tariffs. We will vote Wednesday on a “Motion to Instruct,” a first step toward reasserting Congress’s constitutional role on tariffs.

Trump’s Defenders Are Now Attacking the Patriotism of a Purple Heart Officer

Without substantive defenses of the president, and deprived of process complaints, Trump’s allies resort to toxic xenophobia and baseless accusations.

I was pleased to co-sponsor this resolution last year. It would be a fitting tribute to John McCain. Kudos to Senator Schumer for reintroducing it.

The Republican Party can have a bright future in Arizona if we accept that the election was not "stolen." The President lost. If we move beyond conspiracy theories and debate issues again, the country will benefit - and so will our party.

Zero threat??? It took a massive toll on life and limb, on property, on rule of law and on our reputation globally. What kind of man would say this, and what kind of people would follow him.

Trump claims Capitol rioters posed 'zero threat,' says some being persecuted

Former President Donald Trump claimed on Fox that the rioters were "hugging and kissing" Capitol Police officers during the Jan 6 riot.

The same day House Republicans removed Liz Cheney for telling the truth, a House Republican described January 6th as a "normal tourist visit." I served on Capitol Hill for 18 years. This was not a normal tourist visit.

The firings of multiple Inspectors General is unprecedented; doing so without good cause chills the independence essential to their purpose. It is a threat to accountable democracy and a fissure in the constitutional balance of power.
