Trump Jr. bought into a startup. The White House then personally intervened to hand that startup $620 million from the Pentagon, and the company’s valuation jumped from $200 million to $2 billion. You tell me if that sounds suspicious. Today, I introduced an amendment

The White House just sent Congress an $87.6 billion supplemental request, most of it for the Pentagon, and as an appropriator, I have serious problems with it. Start with the obvious question. The administration already asked for a record defense budget for next year, the

Update on the $14.7 million Reflecting Pool renovation: it turned green, the paint is peeling, a 67-year-old Olympic canoeist has been arrested, and the whole thing needs to be drained and redone. Seems like Trump’s really cracking down on waste, fraud, and abuse these days.

Congress just passed a once-in-a-generation bipartisan housing bill that would bring down costs for families across this country, and now Donald Trump is refusing to sign it. He is holding housing relief hostage to try to force Congress to pass the SAVE America Act, a bill that

When a reporter asked Trump whether he was worried about rising prices, here’s what he said: “No, I love it. You know what I really love? I love the inflation.” That’s the President of the United States, talking about your grocery bill and your energy costs. He has no plan to

You can watch Trump say “taxpayer-free” as many times as you want. The documents say otherwise: you’re paying over $300 million for a ballroom you’ll never set foot in. Telling a lie over and over again doesn’t make it true.

BREAKING: The Senate has joined the House in directing Trump to end his unauthorized war in Iran or seek congressional authorization to continue it. The President does not have the power to wage war alone, and it's long past time my Republican colleagues stood up and said so.
