It doesn’t matter how wealthy you are, how powerful you are, or whether you are a Democrat or Republican. If you were involved in Epstein’s crimes or abused women and girls, you should be held accountable. Period.

Todd Blanche botched the Epstein cover-up, and he’s still not releasing the files. Survivors deserve answers. It’s time to get more aggressive, and that starts with winning the majority.

We're securing $850,000 for the Palms Park Community Center in the city of Lakewood. These funds are being used to renovate the center, install ADA access, and add new lighting. We will keep fighting to ensure your tax dollars go back into projects our community can enjoy!

There have been zero public hearings on the Epstein case. When we take back Congress, we’re going to change that. Hundreds of millions of dollars moved through these banks. Who was paying for Epstein’s crimes? We will get to the truth.

American citizens are being kidnapped on our streets and, in some cases, killed. I once met a U.S. veteran who was detained by ICE and missed his daughter’s birthday. Trump and Stephen Miller are violating due process rights in this country. They must be held accountable.

This is the latest in a series of serious allegations that Jared Kushner has been selling foreign policy to the highest bidder. He needs to answer these questions before the American people.

Todd Blanche won’t rule out the DOJ blocking election certifications. This is un-American and anti-democratic. Hands off our votes.

NBC News@nbcnews.com

Attorney General Todd Blanche leaves open the possibility that the Justice Department could seek to block states from certifying votes in the midterm elections, though Blanche insists it wasn’t his intention to “improperly interfere with elections.”

Andro Capital has been paid millions of dollars by StubHub for buying tickets in bulk and reselling them on StubHub's marketplace. Here's the catch: Andro Capital just so happens to be owned by the CEO of StubHub.

Why was JD Vance holding Situation Room meetings about Ghislaine Maxwell? We will hold real public hearings with testimony under oath. If you were involved in the abuse of women and girls or the cover-up, we are coming after you.

We've seen alleged pay-to-play schemes by DHS officials, corporations profiting from immigrant detention, and civilians killed on our streets by ICE. When Democrats win back the House, we will investigate the systems that allowed these abuses from top to bottom.

Trump wants us to stop talking about Epstein, but we haven't forgotten that the DOJ is withholding nearly three million documents related to our investigation. We're not going to stop until we get justice for survivors and all the files are released to the public.

Oversight Democrats will focus on taking on Trump family corruption and the abuses of ICE and DHS. There are serious allegations of pay-to-play schemes that must be investigated.

Today, our office received a letter consistent with other suspicious mailings sent to congressional officials. The letter was intercepted, necessary safety precautions were taken, and no one in our office was harmed. We’re thankful to the LBPF and LBFD for their support keeping our community safe.

ICE is out of control and not welcome in Long Beach. These agents are terrorizing our communities, separating families, and kidnapping people who are just here trying to work. There must be a full investigations and there must be accountability and justice. Abolish ICE.

There's plenty of corruption to go around. When we take back the House, we will be laser focused on the Trump family and corporate corruption, DHS and ICE misconduct, and getting justice for the Epstein survivors.

rollingstone.com'Corruption to Go Around': How Dems Are Preparing to Investigate Trump After the MidtermsDemocrats on the House Oversight Committee are preparing for investigations into Trump and his administration should they win control of Congress.

Kimberly Guilfoyle was part of the Trump family for a significant period of time. Now, she’s accused of asking a MAGA donor for $100,000 in exchange for access to Administration officials. We will get to the bottom of all this Trump family corruption. Ms. Guilfoyle has a lot of questions to answer.

Oversight Democrats and Members of the California Delegation visited the Adelanto Detention Facility. What happens inside is unacceptable and inhumane. We must stop Trump’s deportation machine.

As members of Congress, we have the right to conduct oversight at ICE detention facilities through unannounced visits. Today, I am headed to Adelanto, which has serious allegations of misconduct and abuse. More to come.

Oversight Democrats have four main investigative areas: Trump family corruption, holding ICE and DHS accountable, taking on corporate corruption, and getting justice for the Epstein survivors. Our work is just getting started.

Banning stock trading for members of Congress and the President is the bare minimum. That is why I’m a proud co-sponsor of a bill to ban congressional stock trading. The corruption at this White House is on another level. Trump’s crypto schemes must end now.

Proud to join @warren.senate.gov in introducing bipartisan legislation aimed at holding banks accountable for enabling Epstein's crimes. The Epstein Wall Street Records Act demands answers on what these financial institutions knew about Epstein and whether they complied with the law.

nytimes.comMidterms Could Shift Focus of Epstein Abuse to Banks’ RoleWith an eye on retaking control of Congress, Democrats are introducing a bill that would hold banks accountable for their handling of Jeffrey Epstein’s finances.

Leaving office doesn’t erase the record. Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and anyone accused of ripping off the American public will be held accountable. The American people deserve truth and transparency.

I'm incredibly grateful to our fire, police, and public works personnel for their heroic work protecting our coastline and saving as many structures as possible. It's devastating to witness the pain that so many residents are experiencing. Please keep our neighbors in your thoughts and prayers.

What happened to lowering costs “on day one”? It’s clear that this President only cares about himself and his billionaire friends.

Kimberly Guilfoyle is just a symptom of the corruption throughout the Trump administration. Despite her resignation, their corruption will continue until someone holds them accountable.

The clock is ticking and Oversight Democrats won't stop or slow down our investigation into Ms. Guilfoyle until she provides clear answers. Did she ask a MAGA donor to pay off a $100k credit card bill?

Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee Robert Garcia says Democrats will investigate the alleged pay-to-play scheme involving Kimberly Guilfoyle. “It’s just emblematic of probably what is likely happening in so many other parts of the government. People are engaged in massive corruption”

The Administration's raid on Representative Omar's home is an outrageous escalation in the President's continued weaponization of our government. Searching a representative's home over a decades-old immigration filing by her father is an abuse of power. No family deserves these continued attacks.

On Indigenous Peoples' Day, we honor the history, culture, and contributions of Indigenous communities. As we reflect on our nation's turbulent history, we must uplift Indigenous voices and commit to investing in health, education, and opportunities for Tribal families.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot and killed by ICE agents. He should still be alive today. His sons came before Congress to demand justice and ensure that no more families are torn apart. Abolish ICE.

Trump’s Ambassador to Greece allegedly asked a donor to pay her $100,000 credit card bill. What else is she asking for? If it’s true, she has no business serving our country. Oversight Democrats are going to find out.

Horrified by reports of ICE ordering agents in California to “Go after anybody.” They’re not after just anybody. They will continue their assault on immigrants and U.S. citizens with no criminal history because they have gotten away with it before. ICE should be abolished.

sacbee.comICE launches California immigration crackdown. Newsom calls it ‘campaign of fear’Dubbed internally as “Operation Safe California,” the Examiner reported, the 45-day enforcement began several days ago in the San Diego area.

Even though the President has supporters in California, he's doubling down on his comments about attacks on LA and San Diego. His rhetoric is reckless and dangerous, and Republicans should be speaking out.

From day one in the majority, we're going to take on: 🔍Trump family corruption 🔍Abuses by DHS and ICE 🔍Corporate corruption making everything more expensive 🔍Getting justice for the Epstein survivors We will hold them accountable for everything that they've done.

This Hispanic Heritage Month, I wanted to celebrate the Latino small businesses that strengthen our economy. I stopped by El Sabor Del Barrio in Huntington Park for some delicious sopes and tacos dorados. One of the best places in Southeast LA! So good.

Thank you to Long Beach City College for this tour of the new Trade, Technology, and Community Learning Campus. This campus has state-of-the-art equipment that will set our students up for success and good-paying jobs.

Today, I join members of our Long Beach Jewish community to honor the lives lost during the horrific attacks by Hamas on October 7. We must all recommit and work toward a lasting peace for the Israeli and Palestinian people.

Oversight Democrats will keep working to uncover any corrupt partnerships between the Trump family and large corporations. We will hold anyone harming the American consumer accountable.

The President is now telling crowds to "let" a foreign adversary "take out" Los Angeles and San Diego. These comments are downright crazy. We need to stand up to this deranged lunatic in the White House.

70% of Long Beach riders rely solely on public transportation to get around. These zero-emission buses are mostly federally funded. As a member of the Transportation & Infrastructure Committee, I want to ensure that we fund public transit in our community and across the country.

When the President’s sons are getting their weddings bankrolled by Russian oligarchs and sitting on the boards of defense contractors funded by the Pentagon, corruption IS the agenda. The American people deserve justice, and the end of Trump’s corruption will begin in November.

Trump and Stephen Miller’s ICE is out of control. Alex Pretti, a brave American and nurse, was protecting his community when ICE agents shot and killed him. Stephen Miller then tried to smear his name and lie about his death. What else is he lying about?
