In an increasingly unstable world, it’s more important to stand with our allies than ever before. As I told the Danish and Greenlandic Prime Ministers, this weekend’s bipartisan delegation is proof that Congress wants to build on our ties and shared values, not weaken them.

By 🇬🇱 standards a truly massive demonstration outside the 🇺🇸 consulate in Nuuk this afternoon.

To threaten Denmark - and now six other NATO allies - in a crusade to take Greenland threatens to blow up the NATO alliance that has kept Americans safe and destroy our standing in the world as a trustworthy ally. Only Putin is celebrating this terrible, self-defeating strategy.

There’s no credible reason to threaten to take Greenland—our long standing and valuable ally. Denmark has for years been a great partner on Arctic security and economic development, and it welcomes further cooperation on both regarding Greenland.
BREAKING: Trump announces a new 10% tariff on Denmark and seven other European countries until a deal is reached for the U.S. purchase of Greenland.

Threatening to send in American troops to suppress protestors exercising their First Amendment rights isn’t just unconstitutional—it’s un-American. I stand with those in Minneapolis and across the country outraged by Renee Good’s killing.

The rarely used law allows the president to use active-duty military personnel for law enforcement.

A great day leading our bipartisan delegation to Copenhagen meeting with Danish and Greenlandic officials to reaffirm Congress' commitment to one of our oldest, strongest NATO allies. In an increasingly unstable world In which our adversaries are cooperating, our alliances are

You should be notified if law enforcement goes through your phone. It’s your constitutional right. The bipartisan NDO Fairness Act with @ChrisCoons protects you from unreasonable searches and seizures of your private data and communications.

There's a lot of rhetoric and not a lot of reality in the conversation about Greenland in Washington. We're in Copenhagen today to separate fact from fiction and show support for a trusted NATO ally.

Right before leaving this afternoon to lead a high-level, bipartisan delegation to Denmark, I sat down with Senator Chris Coons to talk about the trip's significance, the importance of the NATO alliance, and Trump's ruinous foreign policy 👇 https://t.co/bR2LJkaTnE

Today, I’m leading a bipartisan delegation to Denmark to meet with Danish and Greenlandic leaders. Congress is unified in wanting to thank our NATO allies and stand firm against unnecessary threats to trusted partners.

Elon Musk was the largest donor to Trump’s campaign. Now, Trump’s Pentagon is embracing Musk’s chatbot that generates sexual deepfakes of people, including children. If this administration won’t do anything to protect kids, Congress must step up. https://t.co/ZgKh0OTwQ7

The announcement comes just days after Grok — which is embedded into X, the social media network owned by Musk — drew global outcry and scrutiny for generating highly sexualized deepfake images of...

Every day the Epstein files remain hidden by President Trump and his pawns at the DOJ is another day the victims are denied justice. Trump is breaking the law to keep Epstein’s victims – and the public – in the dark. It’s shameful, and it’s illegal.

Delighted by the House’s bipartisan vote this week to renew and extend the African Growth and Opportunity Act. The Senate should quickly join them to strengthen the cornerstone of U.S.-Africa trade and reinvest in our partnerships on the continent.
A big win for stronger U.S.–Africa economic ties today. Proud to see the House pass legislation to extend the AGOA trade program for three more years. It will create jobs, foster economic growth, and strengthen the bonds between the U.S. and our African partners. Grateful to our

Regardless of whether she’s the target of an investigation, this morning’s raid on a Washington Post reporter’s home sends a chilling message to journalists trying to do reporting in the national interest. Every American should stand up against this clear assault on the First

Just a reminder that 99% of the Epstein files are still being held up by the DOJ in direct violation of the law. That’s not a delay, it’s a cover-up. Release all the files.

I’m looking forward to leading a bipartisan delegation to Copenhagen later this week. At a time of increasing international instability, we need our allies more than ever, and this trip will send a clear message that Congress still stands with Denmark and the NATO alliance.

Sen @ChrisCoons says the point of the trip to Denmark this week is to emphasize “we understand the value of the partnership we have long had with them.” The group also considered going to Greenland, but couldn’t due to logistics.
