Last week, I demanded the truth about Donald Trump’s call with Mohammed bin Salman regarding the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
Now, I’m being targeted in a sham investigation by DOW for calling this administration out on their corruption.
I'm not backing down. We will get the truth.

Indeed. This is a prescription for Duma.
“Having a United States senator subject to discipline at the behest of the secretary of defense and the president — that violates a core principle of legislative independence,” Kreis said in a phone interview.

Only someone this wealthy would so flippantly suggest you uproot your life, sell your house, pull your kids out of school, quit your job, request a transfer — all to save 50 basis points on CPI. 🤡

Horrific. Being done with our tax dollars and in our name.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
