We saw Renee Good murdered by federal officers with our own eyes. Now the FBI and local authorities are blocked from investigating it.
Trump and his cronies only care about protecting themselves.
This is not normal. Murdering a person expressing their first amendment rights is a travesty and has no place in America.
Let’s be clear anyone who breaks the law must be held accountable, including LE officers. That won’t happen if DHS handles this investigation.
Happy Veterans Day. Today, and everyday, we honor our veterans for safeguarding our nation and preserving the liberties that define our country. Their example reminds us of the importance of service, leadership, and resilience.
Thank Lawler -
Are you without food assistance today?
Thank Mike Lawler
Are your kids hungry?
Thank Mike Lawler
Are you unsure of how to feed your family?
Thank Mike Lawler
The Republican shutdown is hurting families in the Hudson Valley.
Mike - do your job. Hudson Valley families deserve better.
Last year the FBI caught Trump's border czar taking a $50K bribe. This year, they closed the case and even let him keep the money. Trump's enemies get indicted on BS charges, while his allies get away with corruption on a massive scale - because cowards like Mike Lawler let it happen.
Yesterday I got to tour Open Door Care in Ossining, which serves hundreds of patients each day, many of whom rely on Medicaid. The cuts Mike Lawler voted for this year are a direct threat to community health centers like Open Door that keep our families and neighbors healthy.
Trump, Bondi and Patel keep escalating their campaign of revenge and firing anyone who won't go along. Their next move: prosecuting FBI agents for doing their jobs investigating Russian interference back in 2016. Where does it end?
Had a great weekend helping get out the vote for Democrats up and down the ticket in Croton and New Castle!
First Comey, now Tish James indicted by Trump's lackey lawyer on charges that real prosecutors said were BS. Trump's revenge campaign isn't just about punishing his enemies, it's ramping up the threat to OUR First Amendment right to criticize him and hold our leaders accountable.
25% of FBI agents pulled off counterterrorism, drug trafficking, cybercrime, counterintelligence and other complex investigations. Trump and his lackeys are making us all less safe every single day.
I proudly displayed a Pride flag on my desk every day until I left the FBI. Even after Kash took over and I was warned to take it down.
This is exactly what we feared would happen. Purging gay people for being open about who we are. Calling our free speech “inappropriate.”
We have to stop them.
Wishing an easy and meaningful fast to everyone observing Yom Kippur in the Hudson Valley and beyond. G'mar Chatima Tovah.
I've witnessed Trump's attack on the rule of law from the inside and I'm running for Congress because the future of our country is at stake. But I need you to join me and chip in to this campaign before the deadline at midnight tomorrow: secure.actblue.com/donate/fl-su...
Mike Lawler and his allies are about to shut down the government rather than take action to keep your insurance premiums from skyrocketing. New Yorkers can't afford to kick this can down the road, but Lawler would rather play political games than help us avoid soaring costs.
That starts with beating Mike Lawler and taking back Congress - but I can't do it without your help: secure.actblue.com/donate/fl-su...
Donald Trump orders an indictment and DOJ delivers. Damn the facts, just punish his enemies.
This is the path to authoritarianism. This is why I had to leave the FBI and speak out about what I saw.
We must hold Trump accountable for weaponizing our justice system.

3) Cracking down on dark money. Just this week we learned Lawler's dark money allies are funding ads to defend his vote that guts Medicaid to fund billionaire tax breaks. I'll back legislation to expose secret donors and make election spending transparent again.
2) Refusing corporate PAC money. Mike Lawler has taken hundreds of thousands in corporate PAC donations - I won't take a dime, because my priority is Hudson Valley families, not corporate special interests.
I'm proud to announce that I've taken @endcitizensunited.bsky.social's Unrig Washington pledge to restore accountability to our government by:
1) Banning members of Congress from trading individual stocks. No one should be walking out of Congress a multimillionaire by trading on inside information.
Really enjoyed sitting down with Democratic voters and candidates in Kent last night to answer their questions and share our plan to beat Mike Lawler in 2026!
Phil and I took the same oath to defend and protect the Constitution and keep Americans safe. We are committed to upholding that oath as members of Congress.
Please chip in whatever you can and join us for this conversation: secure.actblue.com/donate/fl-ev...
On September 30th, I'll be participating in a virtual conversation with my friend, former FBI colleague, and fellow Congressional candidate @philandrew-il9.bsky.social. We'll be joined by special guest, Mike Feinberg, who recently left the FBI after denouncing the politicization at the Bureau.
Wishing L'Shanah Tovah to everyone celebrating Rosh Hashanah! May this New Year bring sweetness, peace, and happiness to all who observe.
Had a great time this weekend making the rounds at Celebrate Somers, then visiting with Peekskill mayor Vivian McKenzie and city council candidates Beverley Chang and Charlie DiGruccio!
Donald Trump is firing a US Attorney who *he appointed* because he refused to make up false criminal charges to prosecute his enemies. It's a dire threat to the rule of law.
Trump and his stooges at the FCC are shamelessly trying to rip away our freedom of speech because it's the most important tool we have in America to hold our government accountable. But I refuse to stop speaking out.
24 years after the 9/11 attacks, New York remains the #1 target for terrorism. I'm disturbed that New York is being singled out for cuts to counterterrorism funding while FBI agents trained to keep us safe from terror threats are reassigned for political stunts.
At today's powerful memorial commemorating the anniversary of the September 11th attacks, we came together to honor those who lost their lives in the attacks or from related illnesses, and the heroic firefighters and police officers who rushed in to save lives. We will never forget.
Meanwhile, Mike Lawler lies about helping Hudson Valley families - with the exact same vote that jacks up the cost of your health care, food and energy bills - because he's too cowardly to do anything but watch this disaster unfold.
