Two of my favorite quotes and one of my own.
Trump says Epstein “fought” his election based on released files. Fact checks show no evidence Epstein ran political operations against him — and DOJ reviews found no verified blackmail network, and the Epstein files do not exonerate Trump. #Lies #Propaganda @democrats.senate.gov

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse rejected claims Russia is winning in Ukraine, calling the narrative propaganda — and arguing Kyiv needs weapons, not applause. #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine #Russia @ec.europa.eu @whitehouse.senate.gov

Under Trump's leadership? Where was Renee Good and Alex Pretti's 1st and 2nd Amendment rights. Their answer is always more guns. We are insanely violent and giving more access to guns is not leadership, it's political theater for the base. #GunViolence #1A #IneptLeader @democrats.senate.gov
