USAID made the world—and the American people—safer, healthier and more prosperous until Trump and Secretary Rubio ended its work.
Always remember that Congressional Republicans celebrated its demise and are complicit in the death and suffering that has followed.

Trump likes to appear tough on Iran. But he pardoned the founder of Binance—whose crypto exchange pleaded guilty to sanctions violations and is now being investigated for helping Iranian terror networks move money.
Guess “maximum pressure” doesn’t apply to crypto billionaires.
The Trump administration spent nearly $12 BILLION in a single week on an open-ended war of choice in the Middle East.
Zero dollars to lower your healthcare costs.
These are choices.

RM @meeks.house.gov: If a completed investigation confirms this reporting, the administration must immediately tell the American people how this happened—and what it will do to prevent further civilian casualties. My heart breaks for the innocent lives lost in Trump’s reckless war of choice.
Why is Steve Witkoff more willing to take the Kremlin at its word than the US intelligence community?
Russia is helping Iran target American troops and assets in the Middle East. Stop playing cover for Putin, start holding him accountable.
For more than a year Russia has bombed Ukrainian civilians while stringing Witkoff along about ending the war. He's still taking them "at their word.”
Yet he gave up on diplomacy with Iran after 2 meetings.
It is clear that the U.S. was never serious about diplomacy with Iran.
Reminder this is the same Binance that pleaded guilty in 2023 to violating Iran sanctions and laundering money for Al-Qaeda and ISIS.
Also the same Binance whose founder, Changpeng Zhao, Trump pardoned last year after Zhao invested in Trump’s family business.
RM @meeks.house.gov: I congratulate the people of Nepal on their recent elections, which underscore the resilience of Nepal’s democracy and constitution. I look forward to working with the incoming government to advance our bilateral relationship.

Add this to the many planning failures the Trump administration made in the run up to its war of choice.
When you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Putin's Russia is helping Iran target US troops in the Middle East.
Ukraine is going out of its way to help US troops defend against Iranian drones.
It's very clear who our friend and ally is. Trump and Republicans should start acting like it.

Seven months ago Ukraine tried to help the U.S. stop Iranian drones. The Trump administration ignored them. Now American troops and our gulf partners are dealing with the consequences.
When you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Secretary Rubio is taking selfies with Enrique Tarrio, convicted of seditious conspiracy against the United States, while Americans stranded in the Middle East because of Rubio’s failure to plan, can't get home.
This is American leadership under Trump.

RM @meeks.house.gov: This deployment undermines Cyprus's sovereignty and will only serve to increase tensions in the region. President Erdogan must immediately reverse course.

Trump’s “excursion” has already cost 7 American service members their lives, billions in taxpayer dollars and American families more at the gas pump.
Republicans are happy to send billions for a war in the Middle East, but won’t lift a finger to help Americans afford healthcare.
4/ Lives are on the line.
Rubio and State Department leadership are failing American citizens in the region and must be held responsible for this chaos.
When Democrats take control of the House next year, count on extensive investigations into how this was allowed to happen.
3/ By the way: while Iran is attacking Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE in retaliation of Trump's war of choice, the United States does not have confirmed ambassadors in any of these countries to coordinate evacuation efforts or help Americans in need.

2/ This is what happens when you have a Sec. of State spending time at the White House as National Security Advisor instead of leading the Department.
This is what happens when you fire hundreds of experienced diplomats and fill Department leadership with unqualified loyalists.
The State Department under Secretary Rubio is failing at its core responsibility of protecting Americans abroad.
Trump CHOSE to start this war when he did.
The State Department should have had plans in place to protect diplomats and citizens in the region, including evacuations.
Trump's outright refusal to pressure Putin to end the war in Ukraine is the true obstacle to peace.
Two bullies who may now bond over their shared experience of launching wars of choice.
🚨Kari Lake's takeover of the US Agency for Global Media (USAGM) has been mired in incompetence & abuse of taxpayer dollars.
A judge now ruled her appointment there was illegal.
She should resign immediately & the illegal mass firing of 1,000+ journalists & staff at USAGM must be swiftly reversed.
Trump has started an open-ended war of choice in the Middle East, while failing to address the affordability crisis facing everyday Americans.
Ranking Member @meeks.house.gov issued a statement following the Trump administration’s decision to invoke the Arms Control Act’s Emergency Authority for multiple cases of over 20,000 bombs worth over $650 million.
Trump is giving Russia a pass to sell sanctioned oil, helping fund its war against Ukraine, because his own war of choice has driven oil prices higher.
Meanwhile, Russia is assisting Iran in targeting American troops.
Absolutely shameful.
Assistant Secretary Michael DeSombre was to testify before this committee about this and the many concessions the Trump administration has made to China. Instead, the State Department canceled the hearing—apparently unwilling to publicly defend the administration’s failed China policy.
What could be weaker from an American president than deliberately delaying an arms package to Taiwan because he's scared to upset Xi Jinping?
Trump and Rubio are doubling down on a failed, decades-long maximum pressure campaign in Cuba that only worsens the suffering and oppression of everyday Cubans, while doing nothing to foster change on the island.
Cruel, collective punishment.

Reminder: Trump and Republicans are more concerned about paying for wars in the Middle East than lowering costs for everyday Americans.

2/ South Sudanese officials must also redouble efforts to locate the 26 MSF staff currently missing in Jonglei. These brave individuals put themselves in harm’s way to provide essential health care. They must be found and returned to safety.
