While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our national security is her resignation.
My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem.
I want to urge folks that are still within the area where there is an evacuation order ... Nothing is worth risking, endangering your lives by trying to go back to your home while there is an evacuation order still in effect.
For the last 8 weeks, I have taken to the Senate floor to oppose the Iran war. I have pointed out the lack of an imminent threat from Iran and the shifting justifications for the war. I have enumerated the many costs of the war in blood…

the author George Orwell wrote about a dystopian future in which the party in power spoke in doublespeak, a language in which up meant down and down meant up, good meant bad, and nothing was as it seemed. In the language of Orwellian…
just over a year ago, Los Angeles County fell victim to the worst natural disaster in my lifetime. The Eaton and Palisade fires were unthinkable tragedies--lives taken; livelihoods incinerated; old photographs, family heirlooms, childhood…
we are at war once again. George W. Bush had his Iraq war, and Donald Trump now has his Iran war. Make no mistake, with the massive deployment of American military forces, with the massive amounts of ordnance that are being used, with the…
we are at war once again--this time with Iran. It is a war that the President declared, incidentally, almost accidentally when he talked about the prospect of casualties among our brave servicemembers being a possible outcome--an outcome…
just more than a year ago, Los Angeles County faced one of the most destructive disasters in the Nation's history. Entire neighborhoods torched and torn apart by wildfires, the magnitude of which we haven't seen on suburban streets of the…
