Thank you, @booker.senate.gov, for using your voice to alert people to Trump and Musk's wrecking ball to Social Security and other vital services Americans rely on.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this?

Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

“As far as Mr. Trump is concerned, Russia is not responsible for the war that has devastated its neighbor. Instead, he suggests that Ukraine is to blame for Russia’s invasion of it.” Like all the weakest bullies, Trump specializes in blaming the victim.

DOGE is reportedly threatening NOAA with massive staff and budget cuts.

NOAA houses the National Weather Service and National Hurricane Center, which produce forecasts and warn people about storms.

This attack on public safety is ripped straight from the pages of Project 2025.

It appears Musk came to US on a student visa, did not attend school and worked illegally here.

If he lied in his subsequent immigration applications he committed a felony level crime and could be stripped of his citizenship and security clearances.

Musk's brother: "We were illegal immigrants."
What’s amazing about Musk claiming the reason he’s in America is the H1B visa is that it isn’t true. According to story below, he came here on a student visa, worked illegally and then got an H1B. He should release his immigration records to clear this up.

I won’t sugarcoat it for you. Trump won't give a straight answer about his plans for day one. There are too many unknowns about what we'll actually face in the months and years ahead.

The road might be rocky in the future, but we will get through this hurricane if we are united.
