@jonhusted· OH· Mar 17, 2026

JD Vance
@jdvance· Republican · OH· Mar 8, 2026

There's just no way that Donald Trump is going to allow this country to get into a multi-year conflict with no clear end in sight and no clear objective. What is different about President Trump, and it's frankly different about both…

JD Vance
@jdvance· Republican · OH· Mar 8, 2026

The president's told his entire senior team that we should be trying to cut a deal that ensures the Iranians don't have a nuclear weapon. But if we can't cut that deal, then there's another option on the table. So, I think the president's…

I rise today, as I do every day, on behalf of the people of the region I represent, but also for people across our country. Americans are facing the high cost of energy, and it is becoming unaffordable, but it is not their fault. At the…

Bernie Moreno
@berniemoreno· OH· Feb 25, 2026

I will remind the Senator: I in no way disparaged your family. I didn't even mention your family. What I did mention is that you made the point that we are harming immigrants who come here who might be dependent on social safety net…
