Trump used the White House Situation Room to bully House Republicans to remove their names from the Epstein Files Petition — after new emails say he knew about Epstein’s abuse & spent hours with a victim.

Trump is panicking — calling House Republicans and demanding they remove their names from the Epstein Discharge Petition.
New emails say he knew about Epstein’s abuse and spent hours with a victim.
Why is he acting like someone with something to hide?

Newly-released emails suggest that Trump knew about Epstein’s abuse and that Trump himself spent “hours” with a victim at Epstein’s homes.

Trump is now attacking air traffic controllers — the same heroes keeping our skies safe while working odd jobs to feed their families during his shutdown.
Just like the 55,000 federal workers in VA-11, they’ve suffered enough abuse from this man. It's outrageous.

On this #VeteransDay, I’m grateful to all who have served our nation.
I’m especially thankful for Billy and Moiz, two veterans in our office who support the veterans and all residents of Virginia’s 11th District.

For months, Trump & Republicans have refused to fix the health care crisis they created.
And many of the federal workers they’ve fired now rely on the Affordable Care Act or Medicaid to get health care coverage.
I’ll keep fighting for affordable health care for all Americans.

While millions of parents worry how they'll feed their kids, the Trump administration quietly doubled down — threatening states, halting full food-stamp payments for 42 million and using hunger as a political weapon.
Shameful.

Trump refuses to fund SNAP, the House GOP remains on vacation, & the Republican shutdown continues.
But I spent the week traveling to the Capitol & across Fairfax -- fighting to address the health care crisis and connecting with our community.

The House is still shut down for the Republican paid vacation.
But I used a procedural session today to try to bring up a bill to pay TSA and air traffic control.
But Republican leadership wouldn’t recognize me.

During Trump’s shutdown, ICE oversight staff were furloughed—leaving detention facilities uninspected & lives at risk. At least 20 people have died in ICE custody this year.

Ran into @repyassansari.bsky.social outside Speaker Johnson’s office — both of us hoping to find him to urge him to end the Republican vacation.
Why are they on vacation?
He doesn’t want to swear in Adelita Grijalva — the final signature to force a vote to release the #EpsteinFiles.
Coincidence?

A federal judge just ordered Trump to fully fund SNAP after he chose to weaponize hunger.
I’ve been fighting to protect thousands of Fairfax families from going hungry — and saw firsthand the damage his actions caused at food pantries across our community.

President Gregory Washington has been an exemplary leader in the most difficult of times.
Disgraced Washington politicians like Jim Jordan can try to tear him down with Trumped up, bogus accusations, but our community knows the truth.
