“An insane level of corruption — even for Trump. A $1.7 BILLION slush fund for Trump's hand-picked stooges to hand money to January 6th insurrectionists and his political allies.
“The Senate should not be aiding and abetting Donald Trump's illegal takeover of the Fed by installing his chosen sock puppet as chair. At this unprecedented moment in the Fed's history, he is uniquely unqualified to lead the agency.
“While American families are getting flattened by skyrocketing costs, Donald Trump is trying to snatch up billions of taxpayer dollars to line his own pockets and settle personal scores. My bill will close the loopholes that enable this apparent corruption and ban Trump — and all future Presidents and Vice Presidents — from abusing their power and stealing Americans' hard-earned money.
“Under AG Pam Bondi, the DOJ became a cesspool of corruption. Good riddance. Bondi will be remembered for blocking the release of the Epstein files, weaponizing the DOJ to go after Trump's political opponents, and handing out merger approvals as political favors.
“Donald Trump's single-handedly starting another war with Iran is dangerous and illegal. 'America first' doesn't mean dragging the United States into another forever war built on lies while ignoring the needs of Americans here at home. The Constitution is clear: only Congress can declare war.
“Billionaires and giant corporations with business in front of this administration are lining up to dump millions into Trump's new ballroom — and Trump is showing them where to sign on the dotted line. Americans shouldn't have to wonder whether President Trump is building a ballroom to facilitate a pay-to-play scheme for political favors. My new bill will put an end to what looks like bribery in plain sight.
“A guy with a track record of being so drunk at work events that he needed to be carried out on multiple occasions. Can we really count on calling Hegseth at 2AM to make life and death national security decisions?
