Americans who travel to countries like Russia, Iran or North Korea, need to realize "they stand the chance of being grabbed for no reason at all, except to be used as a political chip," Rep. Adam Schiff says when asked if the Griner-Bout prisoner swap encourages hostage taking.

At this moment, only two members of Congress can challenge any state's official count and throw 2024 into chaos. Passing the Electoral Count Act is paramount to prevent a Jan 6 repeat. Hear

Trump called for the constitution to be suspended so he can be installed as president. So-called “constitutional conservatives” are silent. Again. I guess a “constitutional conservative” is one who is conservative in their support for the constitution … when it’s inconvenient.

A very happy Thanksgiving from the Schiff boys! My dad Ed, almost 95, is on the mend at a rehab after spending a few weeks in the hospital, so Dan and I brought him some turkey sandwiches and matzo ball soup. Hope you are enjoying time with loved ones, wherever they are!

Kevin McCarthy is desperate to keep the support of Trump and his House backers. He’ll do whatever Marjorie Taylor Greene and the QAnon caucus wants. And that means following the wishes of the lowest common denominator. Brace yourselves America. The clown car has come to town.

It’s impossible to overstate how much Nancy Pelosi has accomplished — not just for our party, but for our country and every person in it. I will forever be grateful to her. Thank you, Madam Speaker.

Standing with the thousands of academic workers at the University of California on strike. These individuals work tirelessly to teach and tutor, sharing a broad range of expertise. And shaping the next generation. We should heed their calls for fair pay and child care.

For months, Republicans and pundits predicted a red wave. Instead it was an historic election. With a Democratic Senate! All because Dems delivered. And because voters chose democracy over a big lie and Republican extremism. Let’s go!

The GOP will not abandon Trump because he’s dishonest. They’re ok with that. Not because he’s immoral. That’s ok too. Or a danger to the country. A price they’re willing to pay. They will dump him because he’s a loser — and makes them losers too. Like he showed last night.

I am honored and humbled that the voters of New York’s 10th district have put their faith in me to represent them in Congress. The responsibility of representing this community, my home, and the city I love is not one I take lightly. Let’s get to work.

Spent part of Election Day dialing up voters to ask for their support. I would be proud to represent you again in Congress. Thanks to everyone who has already voted. And if you haven’t, you still have just under three hours before polls close.

President Biden is right. Tuesday is a choice. A choice between protecting our democracy. Or continuing to spread lies about the last election. A choice between using the ballot to settle our differences or condoning violence. This is what is at stake. VOTE.

Violence must never become a weapon of political disagreement. And only one party is normalizing this dangerous new reality. Through their lies, their conspiracy theories, and their violent rhetoric. Enough.

NEW: our closing ad in #CA49. We’ve been working hard to address inflation. What’s the Republican plan? Massive tax cuts for billionaires and big corporations. It won’t bring down inflation. But it will make their donors even richer. We need real action. Not a bunch of bull.

Every single House Republican said NO to: Lowering prescription drug costs Providing COVID relief Expanding child tax credit Capping insulin at $35 a month Cutting inflation Stopping gas price-gouging Republicans can’t be trusted to govern. That’s why we all must VOTE.

In 2008, California voters took the power to draw their own districts away from politicians in favor of an independent commission. And here’s the thing, it worked. We need the same thing in Los Angeles. To begin to restore trust. Any half measure simply won’t do.

Now we learn he charged the Secret Service exorbitant rates to stay at his hotels.  Whether it was misusing money from his “charity,” bilking students at his “university,” or raising millions from contributors under false pretenses, the grift took many forms.  And it goes on.

Trump runs for president on a promise that Mexico will pay for a wall. Of course, Mexico doesn’t. So his cronies raise money to pay for the wall.  Then steal it. And he pardons them for stealing from his own people. He’s never been more than a grifter.
