This Veterans Day we honor our heroic veterans for their extraordinary service and sacrifice for our country and our freedoms. 

To our veterans, our active-duty service members, and their families: thank you. We all owe you a debt of gratitude we will never be able to fully repay.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Trump was briefed over A YEAR AGO on Nvidia’s CEO having an affair with a Chinese spy. He did nothing about it.

Instead, Trump took him to Beijing, took his advice to give China access to our AI chips, & accepted a $25M donation from Nvidia.

We need answers immediately on Trump’s failure to protect our national security

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Breaking News: Secretary of State Marco Rubio had warned Trump officials that Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang, was entangled with a Chinese spy, multiple people briefed on the matter said. https://t.co/Zz2cqRZa58

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

See you soon.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Q: Schumer said he wants to put you on trial. 

Hegseth: This is what happens when you put people with ideological agendas in charge of institutions. 

If they want to talk about America's, or excuse me, President Trump's foreign policy and national security record. Let's do it. I'll see you there. Let's have a conversation about the success that I outlined here.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Cute tantrum.

We will put Hegseth on trial and remove him from the Pentagon.

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s first news conference in six months appealed directly to President Trump.

Hegseth called the impeachment effort a “show trial” and defended the Iran war as doing “the tough, right thing.” https://t.co/sHtFuMm22t

[CSPAN @cspan]

.@SenSchumer (D-NY) on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth press conference: "The guy has no sense, no morality, no decency, no honor...Hegseth fancies himself as a patent but he's nothing more than a deranged pundit. He has to go."

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

This is why Americans chose Democrats to be in charge. 

From his costly tariffs to his reckless war, Trump has only made inflation worse. And he openly admits he doesn’t care. 

Our Senate Democratic majority will work relentlessly to bring down costs for all Americans.

[CNN @CNN]

US inflation rose more than expected last month, adding to the strain on households already stretched by the high cost of everyday expenses. https://t.co/3rFjT0JzDC

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

I cannot imagine a more brutally nasty, incompetent, dangerous person to serve as White House Chief of Staff than Stephen Miller.

This is the same guy who smeared Renée Good and Alex Pretti as “domestic terrorists” and “assassins” after federal agents murdered them.

Miller represents everything Americans just overwhelmingly rejected.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

The American people gave our new Democratic majority our marching orders: bring down costs, stop the chaos, and clean up the corruption in our government.

We are going to spend every second of every day striving to deliver on the mandate voters sent us and prove ourselves worthy of Americans’ trust.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

It was my honor to welcome our 11 new Democratic Senators, with two more hopefully on the way!

They will bring essential new ideas and perspectives to the Senate, and I can't wait to work with them to lower costs, and end Trump’s corruption and chaos.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Donald Trump’s pathetic return to election denialism was inevitable.

He can whine all he wants, but nothing will stop this inescapable truth:

For the last two years of his presidency, Trump will face the largest Democratic congressional majorities in decades, all because he has been an unprecedented failure.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Happy Diwali!

The Festival of Lights makes our city and our country ever brighter, and I hope this holiday brings happiness and prosperity to all who celebrate.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Republicans threatened to interfere with the election.

Democrats prepared. Election lawyers fought back. Tens of thousands of poll watchers stood guard.

And Americans made their voices heard.

Our democracy is stronger than any politician who tries to undermine it.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Trump says his immigration crackdown went too far.

Apparently, his solution was to put the man responsible for it in charge of the White House.

That’s not a course correction. That’s a promotion.

[60 Minutes @60Minutes]

President Trump says his administration’s deportation policy was “too tough.” https://t.co/4EQsg4QA8c

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Donald Trump learned nothing from his historic defeat.

Stephen Miller is the architect of the most barbaric, inhumane policies of this administration. Trump couldn’t have made a worse choice.

Our Democratic majorities will fight him every step of the way.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Stephen Miller is the new Chief of Staff.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Costs, corruption, and chaos were the themes of this election.

We hammered Trump on all three. The results speak for themselves.

Now, our Democratic Senate majority must deliver.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Despite Donald Trump’s efforts to end offshore wind production, Revolution Wind is now fully operational!

This project will bring power to over 350,000 homes and create jobs for 1,000 local union workers.

It’s great news for lower costs, union jobs, and a cleaner environment and it’s one of many victories to come in our ongoing fight to lower prices for Americans.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

This was a devastating fire, and my prayers are with all those who were lost or injured and with the brave FDNY first responders.

There is so much more we must do to prevent these lithium-ion battery fires.

I introduced a bill with @SenGillibrand and @RepRitchie to establish mandatory safety standards for these batteries, and I will champion its passage with our new congressional majorities.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Breaking News: Six people died and seven more were injured after a fire tore through a Brooklyn home, officials said. https://t.co/hUFBKOiyHt

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

The American people have made clear that they cannot afford life under Trump and Republicans.

The Senate Democratic Majority will fight to make life affordable again.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

I am so proud of all the Democrats who won big this election.

These candidates are not just smart and articulate ��they are good souls who care about this country.

[Fox News @FoxNews]

"The American people don't know what the heck we're fighting for in Iran."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calls for an end to the war, accusing President Trump of repeatedly shifting his explanation for the U.S. mission.

Schumer also warns that Democrats will pursue investigations, court challenges and legislative action against the administration.

"The days of Trump's supplicant Senate are over."
