The answer ultimately is no.

This case already went to trial, the jury of American voters convicted the party of the accused, and handed out the harshest political punishment possible-losing the single most consequential election in modern history.

Only if the former president refuses, or if questioning uncovers possible criminal activity, should an investigation be initiated.

Biden held off in revealing his diagnosis for strategic reasons.

I don’t think it’s coincidental that this was announced this week.

I also believe in keeping one's word, and do not intend to run for Senate or MN Governor.

Today, I bid farewell to my amazing staff, some of whom are in the gallery, my wonderful colleagues on both sides of the aisle, constituents, and the myriad of unsung heroes to whom our entire Nation owes a debt of gratitude. I thank them…

It's time for probably my side of the aisle, particularly to wake up to that reality. And the status quo is not appealing to most Americans.

There's a palpable, massive disaffection in the country. And here you have Donald Trump and AOC that may have very different political perspectives and backgrounds, but they're both disrupters.

It's so true, Erin. So many of us were trying to call attention to this so long ago.

If Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor, her health situation is different than some may recognize, I would hope that she would proactively step aside so that, yes, Joe Biden can appoint some, at least try to appoint somebody else because we…

I think this is a magnificent opportunity for him, for our country, even for former President Trump, who I send my thoughts too as well, to actually do something that this country needs more than ever and it is set aside the nonsense, stop…

I don't think today is the time to have that. It is a day of mourning, I think the country is in crisis.

I expect both of those to be shown loud and clear tonight.

I am calling on every single one of my colleagues tonight to initiate something similar in their districts, so we can get to know each other, find our common ground, and actually inject some optimism into a country that needs it.

Had I been present, I would have voted YEA on Roll Call No. 141. ____________________

We ask Congress to: Remove the arbitrary age of 55 as a requirement for surviving spouses to retain benefits after remarrying.

I do. I think it's absurd. I've not seen a single shred of evidence that would indicate that he is guilty of anything whatsoever, other than being a good father.

In 2020, I do think he was probably the only one that could defeat Donald Trump. In 2024, I do believe he's one of the only ones that can't.

We should be processing asylum cases in the countries of origin to prevent the crisis once against a border.

It is an unmitigated, embarrassing, horrifying disaster, not just under this administration, for about the 10 last administrations.

Every American should agree, it is the commander in chief's primary job to provide security to the United States.
