First Trump pushed out career national security experts working to counter cyber threats posed by China. Now he’s shelving critical safeguards they put in place. Why is the Trump Administration so eager to do Beijing’s bidding?

This is the economy the president is “very proud” of.

Donald Trump and his Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent can’t even acknowledge the rising costs of groceries. So how could they possibly plan to fix it? The answer is: They won’t.

When you're counting the ways that costs have gone up for Americans over the last year, be sure to include the cost of getting cheated. Because Donald Trump has cost families $19 billion over the last year just by trying to take the financial cops off the beat.

Last week, I asked sports betting companies about Americans getting scammed by credit card companies when placing sports bets -- to the tune of a $10 junk fee just to fund a $20 bet. Glad to see Fanduel take action to protect consumers from these junk fees, joining DraftKings.
FanDuel announces a new nationwide prohibition on credit card account deposits for its sportsbook, casino, and racing products. The prohibition will go into effect next month. https://t.co/tfQdn1EhBv

Before Donald Trump nominated Kevin Warsh to be his sock puppet at the Fed, he was spinning fairy tales about prices coming down under the President.

One year ago, Trump launched an attack on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency that protects Americans from getting scammed by big banks and giant corporations. We're fighting back.

Another ridiculous price tag that Trump is forcing you to pay. This is YOUR money. You deserve a government that works for you, not against you and your financial interests.

The Trump administration has significantly reduced the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's activities over the past year.

Donald Trump says it’s his economy now and he's “very proud.” Tell that to working families who see higher costs every time they go to the store or get a bill in the mail.

Corruption, plain and simple. Steve Witkoff, David Sacks, and Howard Lutnick must testify in front of Congress. And Congress needs to grow a spine and put a stop to Trump’s crypto corruption.

American companies like Nvidia should prioritize U.S. customers over Chinese tech giants - this policy was core to my GAIN AI Act with @SenatorBanks. If the Trump Admin implements this rule in good faith, it will not approve a single H200 license to China. I will be watching.

Today’s CPI data shows that inflation is still higher than when Trump launched his trade war. And annual inflation on groceries and utilities are up from a year ago—hitting families hard. Donald Trump has raised costs for families despite his promise to lower them on “day one.”

The CFPB has helped tens of thousands of Nevadans fight predatory lenders, corporate fraud, and unfair business practices. Now, Trump and Russ Vought want to take the cops off the beat. I'm working with my @SenateBanking colleagues to stand up for Nevada consumers.

First, Trump did nothing as China tested U.S. sanctions against Russia’s flagship Arctic LNG 2 project. Now, another LNG plant is generating energy revenue for Russia's war machine. Just 1 example of evaders profiting during Trump’s 10-month pause on counter-evasion sanctions.

The Federal Reserve chair can’t be a Trump puppet. So, when was the last time Kevin Hassett - Trump's likely pick for Fed chair – has disagreed with the President? The answer says it all.

I'm on the Senate floor right now making sure Donald Trump cannot cover up the economic and national security threats of his decision to let NVIDIA sell H200 chips to China.
