I am glad to see Maria Corina Machado return home, a moment long awaited by the people of Venezuela.
When I met with @MariaCorinaYa, we talked about the importance of a democratic Venezuela, and the need for free and fair elections. Venezuelans deserve the right to elect their president—there is no time to waste.
Welcome home, @MariaCorinaYa!
After more than 10 months in exile, Venezuelan opposition leader and Nobel laureate María Corina Machado has returned home.
"I am here. With you," Machado announced on X Sunday morning shortly before other members of the opposition confirmed her arrival without providing details. cnn.it/4slYBFE
Found it @RealDonaldTrump – where’s my $1 million?
You can wire it straight to the 10,000 election workers who are volunteering their time to protect against your efforts to steal the midterms.
NEW: Trump is offering $1 million to anyone who reports cases of "voter fraud" in the midterms or past elections that lead to a conviction.
It's his latest attempt to present rare cases of illegal voting as a widespread problem that threatens U.S. elections. demdock.com/4zSmNC2
The truest thing @JDVance has said in a long, long time.
Americans have paid billions more for gas as Donald Trump has stuffed tens of millions in personal profit into his pockets. It’s obscene.
No politician should be able to make millions off their office - whether they serve in Congress or in the White House. Senate Democrats will hold Trump accountable for doing just that.
FIRST ON CBS: As President Trump boasts about how much money the U.S. oil and gas industry is making from the war with Iran, the president's personal holdings in oil and gas are now worth between $22.5 million and $81.6 million, compared with $12.6 million to $46 million at the end of 2025, according to a new report by Democrats on the Congressional Joint Economic Committee. cbsn.ws/47IN9un
This is life under Donald Trump and Republicans:
Skyrocketing health care costs are forcing Americans to skip doctor visits and ration their medications, while millions more are losing coverage.
ALT A headline from Washington Post reads: Rising health care costs are pushing people to forgo medicine and doctor visits
READ THIS🚨 From a ballroom, to a birthday parade: New reports say Trump has devoted $1.6 BILLION in taxpayer money to fund his self-serving vanity projects.
That’s 620 times what the average American earns in a lifetime.
Americans are struggling to make ends meet, and Trump is treating them as his personal ATM.
NEW ANALYSIS: Since the start of his second term, President Donald Trump’s administration has spent or plans to spend at least $1.6 billion in public funding on vanity projects. ampr.gs/4kdyUoM
Trump's attempts to rig the midterms and block tens of thousands of eligible voters just days before the election REEK of desperation.
Our elections are free and fair, and @SenateDems will ensure they stay that way.
Nope.
Senate Democrats have been preparing for this for months and will be ready for whatever they try.
As Trump and his cronies attempt to steal this election, we are fighting them at every turn. Our elections must always belong to the voters – not Donald Trump.
Another day, another false promise about a health care plan.
While Americans face skyrocketing health care costs CAUSED BY TRUMP’S CRUEL AGENDA, Trump lies about a health care plan that will never actually happen.
It’s been just over 4 months since OG Anunoby's tip-in gave New York one of our greatest moments, and greatest summers, in our long, storied history.
Congrats to the @nyknicks on receiving their championship rings tonight and raising the first banner in 53 years! Time to repeat!
This disgusting, antisemitic language from Donald Trump must have no place in our country, especially from the President of the United States.
While unsurprising from a President who spews hatred on the daily, it must be universally condemned by those who want to root out antisemitism and bigotry in all its forms.

Gas before Trump’s illegal war with Iran: $2.98.
Gas 233 days into Trump’s illegal war with Iran: $4.30.
Americans have spent over $100 BILLION more on gas in that time.
No amount of juvenile idiocy from Donald Trump will distract Americans from that fact.

Chuck Schumer retweeted
Despite Trump’s claims, American families are paying the price for Trump and Republicans’ failed agenda.
And they know who to blame.

.@SenSchumer is right to be worried. As early as this week, the FCC could unleash a flood of unwanted robocalls as voters are already inundated with this junk.
The last thing people want just weeks before an election is their phones overrun with AI slop.
The FCC MUST reject the request made by a Republican group that would allow political groups to make robocalls to cell phones without people’s permission.
Putting Americans in a position where they can be fed misinformation through AI-generated deception ahead of a crucial election is yet another attempt by Republicans to mislead voters.
The risk here is severe: unleashing a Pandora’s box of election mis- and disinformation made more believable with AI. The approaching election is a reason to preserve safeguards, not suspend them.

Trump just gave Putin the best birthday gift he’ll get this year. By giving the Russian economy life support Trump’s deal with the devil keeps getting dirtier.
There’s nothing America First about Trump caving in to Putin and exempting Russia from US sanctions.
Americans need relief from skyrocketing prices. Instead, Trump is aiding and abetting a dictator who has helped Iran target US troops in the Middle East.
Breaking News: President Trump signed an executive order to exempt Russia from new sanctions legislation that Congress passed last month. nyti.ms/4zDoByS
More of Trump’s corruption costing families. Trump made millions on Big Pharma while protecting their profits, raising your prescription drug costs, and cutting your health care.
Democrats will fight to undo every single cut that jacked up your costs and boosted Donald Trump’s and Big Pharma’s bottom lines.

Donald Trump is scared of the American people holding him accountable.
Democrats will challenge this and continue to protect your right to free and fair elections.
Breaking News: The Trump administration sued California, seeking to temporarily block the state from counting mail ballots of voters it claims are likely noncitizens. The suit opens a new front in the administration’s legal fights with election officials. nyti.ms/3Urxwo8
I am incredibly alarmed about the alleged attempt by a white supremacist to commit an act of mass violence at a Hindu temple in Aurora, Illinois, and I thank law enforcement for their swift response.
Anti-Indian and anti-Hindu rhetoric is at an alarming level in America, and now we are seeing that hatred turn into violence.
Bigotry against any community has no place in America, and I remain committed to ensuring that everyone, regardless of their race or religion, can live and practice their faith openly in our country.
Suburban police arrested a 19-year-old man Sunday, and he is now charged with making a terrorist threat and unlawful possession of weapons. Investigators he intended to kill as many minorities as possible, according to prosecutors. abc7chicago.com/post/palatin…
