“[Colby] was not forthcoming [and] did not really address our concerns or issues.
“Even changes that may appear modest from a purely military standpoint can have outsized effects on our bilateral relationships, particularly with Baltic Allies, as Russia continues to intensify its hybrid actions along NATO’s eastern flank. … U.S. Ambassadors and Chiefs of Mission in affected countries have been excluded from consultations. … What we are requesting is not a departure from precedent — it is a return to longstanding practice. [We urge you to ensure] the Department of State is fully and meaningfully engaged from this point forward.
“I've been clear from the beginning about my position, and I'm disappointed that Republican leadership refuses to accept such commonsense solutions.
“He is a student of history who has devoted his life to telling America's full history and cultivating our nation's continued love of learning and exploration.
“They're just using this as an opportunity to intimidate us, and I'm not going to fold in any way. … But we will continue to make sure that we are not handing over information that does not need to be given. It's fascinating that they're continuing down this track of continued intimidation and continued threats when we've offered to work with them in the past.
“The President’s objective is to cause chaos in the hope that voters will give up and simply not participate. I’m grateful to the court for blocking yet another attempt to upend our elections.
“We urge the Israeli government to immediately rescind these tenders, halt settlement expansion in the West Bank, and take urgent action to rein in settler violence.
“Donald Trump's reckless attacks on one of our strongest allies and largest trading partners are needlessly hurting businesses, raising prices, and decreasing tourism.
“Our tourism, manufacturing, and agriculture sectors all rely heavily on Canadian visitors and imports.
“The Ninth Circuit affirmed what Nevadans have always known: prediction markets are gambling. This is an important victory for States’ and Tribes’ authority to regulate gambling. But the fight is not over.
“We must continue working to protect consumers, ensure young people aren’t targets, preserve state and Tribal rights, and safeguard gaming workers across the country. This issue is far from settled and will likely make its way to the U.S. Supreme Court. It is time to stop unelected regulators from bypassing states by passing my bipartisan Prediction Markets Are Gambling Act.
“Prediction markets offering sports-event contracts constitute gambling and must comply with Nevada’s gaming laws and regulatory framework. I commend Chairman Dreitzer and the Nevada Gaming Control Board for their diligent work to uphold Nevada’s longstanding regulatory standards, safeguard the integrity of our gaming industry, and ensure the public can continue to have confidence in its oversight.
“The blatant and tragic misuse of force in Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis, Houston, Maine, and other locations around the country raises significant skepticism about the agency’s professional capability to safely deploy a new tool that could be used to harm Americans without cause.
“Trump voted by mail eleven days ago. Apparently it's good enough for him, but he wants to take away your right to vote in the same way.
“The Lower Basin’s proactiveness and response to ongoing drought and extreme weather impacts affecting Lake Mead remains a model for river management. However, the federal government has produced a plan that provides little certainty for Nevada and other Lower Basin users. Looking into years three through 10 of the decision framework, the federal government is positioning to short Nevada — the state with the smallest river allocation at only 1.8% — sacrificing the health and safety of Nevadans before requiring equal water responsibility for our shared water resources from the Upper Basin.
“DHS representatives informed our office that the numbers they provided are preliminary. The Secretary of State's Office will not risk disenfranchising eligible voters.
“They are not sophisticated in their efforts to determine who is eligible to vote and who's not, and that's dangerous.
“The fact that they are so flippant about a fundamental constitutional right is unsettling.
“It's gross negligence to even think that we'd only take that dataset and truly apply it to our analysis of our voter rolls.
“Sigal Chattah has always been unfit to serve as Nevada's U.S. Attorney, and I'm glad to see the Ninth Circuit agree her appointment is illegal. It's past time for her to vacate the position and leave the U.S. Attorney's office once and for all.
“The Ninth Circuit reaffirmed today that Sigal Chattah is holding her position illegally. She needs to go, now.
“Anyone advocating for acts of violence against innocent civilians should not be in an official government position. I believe Ben-Gvir must resign, and I urge Prime Minister Netanyahu to denounce these remarks and reaffirm to the world that this is not the government’s position.
“$20 million of taxpayer money for electric shock gloves?! This is horrifying and infuriating.
“The Republican-proposed text of the CLARITY Act as it currently stands falls short. … [We have] been working in good faith with our Republican colleagues for the past year and will continue doing so to get this over the finish line.
“The arch relies on illegal funding manipulations without congressional authorization and violates the Commemorative Works Act.
