The corruption of Donald Trump's White House is unlike anything we’ve ever seen in the United States. It’s cronyism and kleptocracy literally on the scale of Vladimir Putin and other dictatorships. We must hold all of them accountable.

Who had MTG in front of a gas sign speaking out against Trump on their 2026 bingo cards?! #GasPumpTrump #FAFO

Switzerland (!?) joining France, Poland, and Lithuania in making alarmed security statements. Instead of vague defensive measures, better would be to seize Russian assets and arm Ukraine to destroy the threat at the source.
In response to the deteriorating security situation, 🇨🇭 has three objectives: strengthen resilience, improve protection and enhance defence capabilities. The Federal Council has adopted Switzerland’s Security Policy Strategy 2026. admin.ch/en/newnsb/zR3tvgIy1… @vbs_ddps

Reminder to those who apparently don't know: the Kennedy Center was financially robust, with many private donors, before this administration undermined it, chased out the National Symphony, Washington Opera and others. Trump has forced it into bankruptcy out of sheer vanity.
The Kennedy Center was a beloved Washington institution, enjoyed by millions of people. It has been destroyed for no real reason. Just vanity, carelessness, indifference.

French President Macron on Iran:
The Strait of Hormuz has remained basically blocked, and there are no agreements to open the strait.
In fact, the situation in transit has degraded compared to a few weeks ago.

🇺🇸🇺🇦💬 “We know who you really are, Vladimir Putin. Your economy is reeling. We will strangle your war machine. To China and India: you had better correct your behavior. Buy your oil and gas elsewhere. Appeasement is not a strategy. To the American people: thank you for standing with Ukraine and recognizing that Ukraine’s struggle is our struggle. This is not just about their freedom and independence, but ours as well,” - Senator Richard Blumenthal

Anyone who thinks the Trump - Witkoff Bank now opening in Florida is nothing other than a money laundering scheme...
Is either delusional, a cultists, or in on it.

Russia does not always need to invade a country to take control of it. In Belarus, it found a dictator willing to trade our sovereignty for his own survival.
Russian troops are stationed on our soil. Our territory has been used to attack Ukraine. Belarusians who stand up to the dictatorship are locked in prisons and penal colonies.
Ukraine has a democratically elected government defending its independence alongside its people. In Belarus, the man controlling the state opened the door to Moscow and imprisoned those who challenged him.
A European country’s sovereignty was traded for one man’s grip on power. Belarusians never agreed to that bargain.
Our struggle for democracy is also a struggle for independence. Europe must support those fighting for a free Belarus and refuse to accept Russian control over our country as permanent.
Belarus was never Lukashenka’s to sell.

This seat belongs to the people of South Carolina, not one family or politicians in Washington.
Whether you’re a farmer or a shrimper, a trucker or a logger, a mom or a dad, a Republican, Democrat, or neither — I’ll answer to you, not Washington.

I just heard from my friend, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy who, in honor of our successful passage of our Sanctioning Russia Act, will be traveling back to the United States to present me with Ukraine’s Order of Merit, First Class. It is a high-level Ukrainian state decoration for “significant personal contribution to strengthening interstate cooperation, supporting Ukraine’s state sovereignty and territorial integrity, preserving the historical memory of the Ukrainian people, charitable activity, and promoting Ukraine in the world.”
@ZelenskyyUA, I thank you for your friendship and for your leadership of your amazing country during this very difficult time. I will always, always have your back. America stands with you! 🇺🇸 🇺🇦

The great under-reported story of our time is the degree the Republican Party has been compromised by Russia.

.@TheRickWilson and I have teamed up by forming a PAC that—we promise, and I think he and I are pretty credible on things like this—will cause a great deal of (very good) trouble. Hope you'll take a look, follow, and help.

It was great to welcome German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius to the Senate today for a productive discussion. Our German partners have stepped up to increase defense spending and ramp up industrial base capabilities. This is exactly the kind of investment NATO needs at this moment. Any changes to our force posture in the region must be focused on successful deterrence against Russian aggression.
