    I will always remember the critical moment when John McCain strode into the U.S. Senate and, with all eyes focused on him and one vote needed, displayed a thumbs down and saved Obamacare, which benefits millions in our country.

    A true American patriot & hero has passed. John McCain was an example of a public policy maker who fought for what he believed in, and had the character & dignity to stand up for what was right -- even if he had to oppose some of his colleagues to do so.

    Manafort & Cohen both lied about their finances & cheated the IRS. Can you imagine what must be hiding in his tax returns when it is well known that the ONLY bank that would lend him money, Deutsche, is notorious for money laundering?

    The avg. American struggles to pay his/her taxes but Trump's allies can get by for years cheating the IRS, defrauding banks, & laundering millions of $$. Trump is probably hiding his tax returns b/c he's as big a crook & fraud as the top people he chose to run his campaign & WH.

    The high crimes are giving aid and classified information to our enemies (Russia), abusing the pardon, breaking campaign finance laws, working w/ Russians to get "dirt" on political opponents, and coming soon from Special Counsel Mueller, obstruction of justice.

    Cohen admitted Trump instructed him to break the law. If it's a crime for Cohen, it's a crime for Trump. Debates about whether you can indict a president do not excuse Congress from its responsibility to impeach Trump for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes & misdemeanors."

    Cohen said he would take a bullet for Trump. I guess he never said anything about jail time!

    Recently, my friend Aretha sent me beautiful flowers with the message “Just Because.” That’s the kind and generous spirit of the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. Her spirit lives within me, and I will hold on to it forever.

    One of the greatest voices of all time has been silenced. My dear friend Aretha Franklin has passed. Even though her music will live on forever, the sound, the voice, and the inspiration of the Queen of Soul can never be matched. Farewell, Aretha.

    I sincerely appreciate the well wishes on my birthday! I'm blessed to be surrounded by my family and friends today, but I really wish that the 500+ children who remain separated from their families could be reunited with their parents to celebrate their birthdays.

    . was so gracious to greet me & a group of prominent pastors during their visit to the Hill last year. We're sending him our prayers & best wishes. Though we may at times disagree on policy, I share in Sen. McCain's pride for our country & constitution. He is a hero

    Can you believe Federal Savings Bank's CEO forced through a $16 million loan for Paul "Money Laundering" Manafort all because the CEO wanted to be in Trump's swamp cabinet? How many small businesses could have benefitted from those funds?

    Don't believe for a second that Giuliani & Trump are honestly negotiating an interview w/ Mueller. Trump's lawyers never intended him to interview w/ Mueller b/c they know he would get caught in his lies and lying to the FBI is a crime. The president will never meet w/ Mueller.

    Let's not allow to divert our attention from the outrageous consequences of his zero tolerance policy. Roughly 500-600 children remain separated from their parents. We must reunite the families.

    Trump thinks he can distract us w/ his unhinged rants, meltdowns, and name calling at his rallies. Not me. I'm focused on his obstruction of justice, collusion w/ Russia, conspiracy, and jail time.

    I enjoyed meeting with families from my district at the Training & Research Foundation’s Annual Community Resource and Enrollment Fair in Inglewood! The event provided information about Head Start’s early childhood education and family programs to residents of our community.

    Yesterday, we lost an icon -- my dear friend and former colleague, Ron Dellums. Ron Dellums was an unabashed, progressive champion with an unwavering commitment to peace, equality & justice. I extend my deepest sympathies to his family & loved ones.
