There’s a lot in the defense bill that passed the Senate today. A pay raise for our troops, investments in military readiness, to name a few. But the bill also makes big changes to help military families living with mold, pests and other outrageous conditions in military housing.
We’ve seen reports of these awful conditions in the press
I’ve heard firsthand from military families in Norfolk, Ft. Belvoir, and Ft. Lee.
Today’s NDAA bill includes major provisions from my legislation that will hold private contractors accountable for poor conditions in military housing. It also creates a Tenant’s Bill of Rights for servicemembers and military families. warner.senate.gov/public/index.c…
Legislation will help families fight for their rights, but we also need a culture shift at both the housing companies and in military leadership. A promise to do better isn’t going to cut it. This is a broken system, and I’m going to keep fighting until it’s fixed.

Why is Tulsi Gabbard at an FBI raid on an election office in Fulton County? Image
There are only two explanations for why the Director of National Intelligence would show up at a federal raid tied to Donald Trump’s obsession with losing the 2020 election.
Either Director Gabbard believes there was a legitimate foreign intelligence nexus – in which case she is in clear violation of her obligation under the law to keep the intelligence committees ‘fully and currently informed’ of relevant national security concerns – or she is once again demonstrating her utter lack of fitness for the office that she holds by injecting the nonpartisan intelligence community she is supposed to be leading into a domestic political stunt designed to legitimize conspiracy theories that undermine our democracy.

Our Constitution places the gravest decisions about the use of military force in the hands of Congress for a reason. Using military force to enact regime change demands the closest scrutiny, precisely because the consequences do not end with the initial strike. (1/5)
If the United States asserts the right to use military force to invade and capture foreign leaders it accuses of criminal conduct, what prevents China from claiming the same authority over Taiwan’s leadership? What stops Vladimir Putin from asserting similar justification to abduct Ukraine’s president? Once this line is crossed, the rules that restrain global chaos begin to collapse, and authoritarian regimes will be the first to exploit it. (2/5)
None of this absolves Maduro. He is a corrupt authoritarian who has repressed his people, stolen elections, imprisoned political opponents, and presided over a humanitarian catastrophe that has forced millions of Venezuelans to flee. The Venezuelan people deserve democratic leadership, and the United States and the international community should have done far more, years ago, to press for a peaceful transition after Maduro lost a vote of his own citizens. But recognizing Maduro’s crimes does not give any president the authority to ignore the Constitution. (3/5)

It seems as though the Trump administration is willing to declassify anything and everything except the Epstein files. (1/6)
The desperate and irresponsible release of the partisan House intelligence report puts at risk some of the most sensitive sources and methods our Intelligence Community uses to spy on Russia and keep Americans safe. (2/6)
And in doing so, Director Gabbard is sending a chilling message to our allies and assets around the world: the United States can no longer be trusted to protect the intelligence you share with us. (3/6)

Folks, the widespread layoffs at health care agencies are disastrous news for the safety of our food, the health of our kids, and the benefits that countless Americans rely on. Here’s a quick thread on who exactly is being impacted ⬇️ 🧵
First up, 3,500 workers at FDA, the people that inspect and approve our food and medicine to ensure they’re safe. This is life or death stuff – how much will the quality of our food and drug supply suffer under this gutted agency?
The cuts include the entire department responsible for regulating electronic cigarettes and other tobacco products. It also includes many employees at the Office of New Drugs, which helps bring safe and effective medical breakthroughs to market.

Behind the headlines of mass layoffs, there are thousands of people with families, bills, and responsibilities that suddenly have their lives turned upside down because of this insane political stunt.

Today, I want to share a few of their stories.
Ashley Ranalli is a cancer survivor and park ranger in Fredericksburg. Despite an exemplary performance evaluation, she was fired earlier this month after years of working towards becoming a park ranger. Image
Ashley, who survived thyroid cancer, lost her health insurance because of the DOGE bros. Image
