The FBI Director needs to stop putting out false information before verifying the facts.

It could ruin lives and put the public at risk.

The Fair Oaks Recreation Center in East Tampa is now open!

As one of my first community funding projects, I am proud to have secured $1 million to create a space for our neighbors to learn, grow and meet as a community. I look forward to this center providing more opportunities for all.

The sprawling senior center and youth recreation complex cost $34.7 million.

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen.

“I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...”

She screamed “Leave me alone...”

Donald Trump incited an insurrection on J6. He should never have been able to run for public office again. What a failure of justice to not hold this man accountable.

So if all the people from “third world countries” should be banned from migrating to America because of a deadly shooting, what are we going to do about all the armed and alienated young white men?

20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member, Sarah Beckstrom, died a day after volunteering to serve in DC so that others could enjoy Thanksgiving with their families. She deserves our gratitude, not political exploitation by a shameless president who scapegoats immigrants to swell his power.

ICE will provide huge financial incentives to bounty hunters who help Trump hunt down immigrants. My latest on how private contractors could earn up to $281 MILLION dollars serving as de facto law enforcement.

No $ for SNAP, but Trump has millions for bounty hunters.

James Comey and Letitia James, cases dismissed without prejudice, after a judge ruled the appointment of Lindsey Halligan as the lead prosecutor was illegal.

Trump and his corrupt DOJ have lost case after case. The goal isn't to win anything but to intimidate their targets & tie them up in court.

Apparently, Trump sycophant Pete Hegseth failed to grasp how despised his arrogant speech before military officers was. So now he wants to go after heroic veteran and astronaut Sen. Mark Kelly for speaking up for the Constitution? Can’t wait to see this former Fox weekend host out of a job.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

every single thing hegseth says in public reveals a bottomless pit of insecurity
When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.
