“It's very clear that Donald Trump is running the United States like a state-run, controlled authoritarian government.
“The senator from Ohio and I agree on one thing, AI data centers can mean higher costs for American families, and in a lot of places they already do. … I don't think it's enough to just take their word for it. It's not enough for us to tell states to consider making data centers pay for grid updates. Rather than voluntary pledges or suggestions to states, Congress needs to pass real legislation with real teeth.
“There's really only one explanation for why they would cancel votes tomorrow and send us home early before the midterms, and that's because they are afraid that the House of Representatives will vote to impeach Pete Hegseth.
“You don't get to erase New Mexico. Not our name. Not our history. Not our culture. The President may want to call us 'New America,' but we know who we are.
“Three things I will always call by their actual names. The Gulf of Mexico. Lake Ontario. New Mexico.
“It's New Mexico, always has been and always will be.
“Oh hell no! Our state's name carries generations of history, culture, and family — and it belongs to us. We're New Mexicans. Period.
“New Mexico's name isn't up for debate — it's been ours since before the United States existed.
“While the White House wastes time coloring on maps, Nuevo México is busy doing the work.
“You can't be serious. New Mexico is not for renaming. Not up for sale.
“New Mexico does not need a new name. This state carries the history of Native nations and Spanish explorers who named this land nearly five hundred years ago, and generations of families who built New Mexico into what it is today. That identity is not up for negotiation.
“These women lost their jobs because of Mr. Edwards’ behavior. He should lose his. It’s time we reform the rules in Congress so abusers like Edwards are at least stripped of committee assignments or expelled if the offense calls for it.
“He engaged in two years of sexual harassment, and he’s going to have to be embarrassed for two minutes on the floor.
“Mr. Boren's actions constitute potentially a misuse of taxpayer funds and put American families at further risk by diverting scarce resources from high-priority wildfires threatening communities elsewhere in the region and country.
“We write to express deep concern about U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) plans to spend up to $20 million on gloves that deliver electric shocks. If ICE proceeds with purchasing $20 million worth of electric-shock gloves, Congress needs a clear understanding of the device’s safety and authorized uses.
“The escalating violence in the West Bank and lack of accountability for the deaths of American citizens are deeply concerning.

“Causing more hunger in America is simply shameful.
“This EO is a clear political overreach, driven by an ideological agenda to rewrite American history.
“A political witch hunt.
“Todd Blanche and the Department of Justice have refused to release as many as 3 million Epstein files.
“The Trump Department of Justice has failed to comply with the law by releasing the Epstein files.
“If Pam Bondi was complying with a congressional deposition to testify under oath, Department of Justice attorneys would not be intervening and essentially trying to stop her from answering basic questions about her conversations with Donald Trump.
“The campaign against Disney and its editorial decision-making, culminating in last week's early-renewal order, is an egregious abuse of power and a clear violation of the First Amendment.
“The administration dismissed or failed to fully appreciate the impact of the Strait of Hormuz closure on energy markets.
“Both Gonzales and Swalwell are not fit to serve in Congress given their sexual transgressions against women who work for them. I will introduce a resolution to expel Rep. Gonzales. He has until 2 PM tomorrow — when we will file his expulsion. He should make his resignation effective immediately.
“Imagine going before the Supreme Court to attack birthright citizenship and being unable to say Native Americans are American citizens.
