“This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president. Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?”

[Raymond Rodriguez @RayRod1987]

Pure cruelty. There’s money for a ballroom and other vanity projects, but not enough money to help disabled people. Make it make sense.

The cut to SSI for families who also rely on SNAP was not the Social Security Administration’s idea, even though that agency runs the SSI program.

Instead, it was initiated by top White House and DOGE officials last year, ProPublica has learned.

@Elex_Michaelson Glad you’re safe!

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

This should be on the front page of every newspaper in America.

A Syrian billionaire needed U.S. sanctions lifted so he could cash in on $12 billion in reconstruction contracts.

In an attempt to influence American foreign policy, he proposed a Trump-branded golf course, cut Jared Kushner & Ivanka Trump into a multibillion-dollar real estate deal for a resort in Albania, and had someone physically deliver a stone engraved with the Trump family crest to a Republican Member of Congress with instructions to take it to the White House to get the President's attention.

Trump threw his weight behind repealing the sanctions. They were lifted. The contracts are moving, the Trump family’s deals are expanding, and not a single Washington Republican is willing to say a word about any of it.

This is a corruption of everything the office of the presidency is supposed to stand for, and the American people deserve to know about it.

This is UNACCEPTABLE.

A U.S. Army Special Forces soldier placed $33K in bets on Polymarket that made him $400K after receiving a classified briefing about the mission to capture Nicolás Maduro and signing an NDA.

This is exactly the kind of prediction market bet that needs to be BANNED across the board.

War is not a commodity, human lives are not a trading opportunity, and classified military intelligence should never be a ticket to a $400,000 payday.

We need rules in place. We need to pass my DEATH BETS Act with @SenAdamSchiff NOW.

@mattcorridoni @NYCMarymount Congrats Matt! Well deserved!

You may remember Stephanie, my State of the Union guest.

She is the daughter of two parents who were deported after three decades of living in our community, working hard, paying taxes, raising their children, and pursuing asylum through the legal process.

Her family tried to navigate a system that is already deeply flawed.

Instead of fixing what is broken, this administration has doubled down on policies that separate families and leave children to carry the burden.

I had the honor of working for Mr. Hoyer in 2022. Everyday, I was in awe to be in the presence of a great political hero who created historic laws that have changed American society. Thank you @RepStenyHoyer for your service to our country. You’ll be missed.

NEW -- Rep. MIKE LEVIN (D-Calif.) is going to introduce a bill that will prevent the use of taxpayer funding to rebuild Venezuela's infrastructure.

The aim is to prevent taxpayer money from being used to help oil companies who go into Venezuela.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

I’m proud to continue delivering real results for California’s 49th Congressional District.

This year alone, my office secured over $71 million for local projects, returned more than $10 million to constituents through casework, delivered $77 million for Camp Pendleton, answered 7,200+ calls, responded to nearly 83,000 emails, and held 181 community meetings to hear directly from you.

Looking ahead to 2026, my focus is clear: protecting affordable health care, lowering costs, and continuing to secure federal investments that improve our communities. I’ll keep fighting for you, delivering results that matter, and standing up for every resident of California’s 49th District, because our communities deserve nothing less than the best.

[Raymond Rodriguez @RayRod1987]

@jackfitzdc Congrats!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

[Raymond Rodriguez @RayRod1987]

@news_jul @NBCNews Amazing!

Today, the nation mourns the deaths of the nearly 3,000 victims of the terrorist attacks on America 24 years ago.

At nightfall, the Tribute in Light will light up the New York City skyline in memory of those lost on Sept. 11, 2001.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

First time since 2021. Not great.

What a nice way to end the day! This afternoon's storm left a rainbow arching over the Washington Monument. 🌈
