Kristi Noem should be impeached. ICE should be disbanded. I voted NO on funding ICE. It has become a lawless bounty hunter organization.

ICE Update: 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos detained www.youtube.com/live/GA8subF...

I am aware of reports that five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos may be in San Antonio. My staff and I are doing everything we can to locate him, check on his safety and demand his release. I will inspect the Dilley Detention Center next week.

Israel is actively stealing Palestinian land in the West Bank. Palestinians are being forced to leave and their homes are being destroyed. Secretary Rubio has acknowledged that these actions undermine peace. I joined my colleagues to demand Secretary Rubio stand up against Israel’s bullying.

Texans paid $1,210 more last year because of inflation. Folks can’t afford to pay for Trump’s obsession with Greenland too—new tariffs and higher interest rates are pushing up prices. When will Republicans in the Congress finally say no to this President?

It was an honor to march alongside thousands of San Antonians to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His words of hope and justice continue to resonate with many. Today we renew our commitment to uphold these values.

Celebrating MLK Day in San Antonio

Today, we honor the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and carry on his fight toward freedom and justice for all people.

Yesterday, I voted no on the Financial Services and State Department Funding Bill. Here’s why:

There’s a lot going on: ICE agents are abusing our communities and the nation is at the brink of more forever-wars. None of this is leaving folks in San Antonio or the country better off. We need to focus on making healthcare affordable. youtu.be/iZciVpeNLSg

Going to war with Mexico risks destabilizing the region, mass migration, human rights abuses, and wastes our taxpayer dollars.

We have a choice to make: support hardworking families in America or spend billions—if not trillions—in Venezuela to make Trump and his cronies richer.

I received an intelligence briefing on Trump’s plan for “running” Venezuela. It sounded like it came from ChatGPT.

"They have turned [ICE] into a rogue organization. And I've said it before: I think that it should be disbanded." Rep. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.socialfrom Texas reacts to the breaking news that ICE agents shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis during an immigration raid. zeteo.com/p/joaquin-ca...

Venezuela oil money is "going to end up in a slush fund for Donald Trump.” Rep. Joaquin Castro joined @mehdirhasan.bsky.social to discuss the absurdity of Trump controlling Venezuela’s oil revenues and pretending it’s for people's benefit. Watch the full interview here: zeteo.com/p/joaquin-ca...

I just voted YES to extend healthcare subsidies that keep folks insured. My own insurance went up $2,400 this year. Others have been hit even harder. It just passed in the House. Keep making your voices heard—it is working! 17 Republicans voted YES. Now, the Senate must do the same.

Renee Nicole Good was a mother of three. She was a writer and poet. Yesterday, an ICE agent shot and killed her. She had joined countless other Americans in protest of ICE’s cruel and unlawful tactics. I join the nation in mourning her loss. @alivitali.bsky.social

Congress has to draw a line now. On the most consequential decision of going to war, we cannot allow the President to sideline Congress. Americans do not want and cannot afford another forever war.

En lugar de enfocarse en reducir los costos de salud, Trump está ocupado en “dirigir” Venezuela.

Instead of focusing on lowering healthcare costs, Trump is caught up in “running” Venezuela. I joined Pod Save the World with @rhodesben.bsky.social to explain the enormous cost of this war to Americans and how my War Powers Resolution would stop it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIQ6...

Today, we look back on the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol—a deadly attempt to obstruct the peaceful transfer of power. It is a stain on our nation’s history.

Trump’s regime change war is about oil. If it was about dictators, more brutal authoritarian leaders wouldn't rule. If it was about communism, China wouldn't be one of our biggest trading partners. If it was about drugs, Trump wouldn't have pardoned Juan Orlando Hernandez.

“It was as if the President didn’t learn any of the lessons of the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan.” @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social blasts President Trump’s claim the U.S. will “run the country” of Venezuela after capturing President Nicolas Maduro in a military operation without congressional approval.

The U.S. Invasion of Venezuela – What Happens Next? La invasión estadounidense de Venezuela: ¿qué pasará ahora? youtu.be/eWDbpy7gPwY?...

El Presidente Trump arriesgó la vida de las soldados estadounidenses y mató al menos a 40 personas en Venezuela en busca de petróleo y ganancias. El Congreso debe detener esta guerra imprudente e ilegal para cambiar el régimen.

The U.S. Invasion of Venezuela – What Happens Next? La invasión estadounidense de Venezuela: ¿qué pasará ahora? youtu.be/eWDbpy7gPwY?...

Trump is escalating his regime-change war in Venezuela. Early this morning President Trump escalated an unconstitutional war. Without the approval of, consultation with or even notice to Congress, the Trump Administration invaded Venezuela and ousted Nicolás Maduro.

This was a year of change in our San Antonio community and our country. Despite many challenges, I witnessed our community fight for what matters:

I am heartbroken to learn about the passing of Tatiana Schlossberg. I am praying for the entire Kennedy-Schlossberg family, and for all her loved ones.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court has ruled the Texas National Guard must return to Texas where they belong. Once again, the courts rejected Trump's authoritarianism. Gov. Abbott should have never supported the use of the National Guard as political props. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

A lot happened this week—the president has launched us into war with Venezuela and House Republicans voted against extending ACA subsidies that help keep healthcare affordable. Tomorrow, more of the Epstein files will be released. Watch my full update here: youtu.be/LJYxmI8M9Mo

For a GOP president—after the Iraq War—to say outright that invading Venezuela is all about oil is wild. But it is. It’s also about corruption, power, graft, and land. And we should take him at his word. @msnowevents.bsky.social

This was a close vote. I will continue to make the case to my colleagues in Congress that we must block the President from starting a war that the American people do not want and that would needlessly put our troops in harms way.

President Trump has taken us to war with Venezuela, but why? Regime change, power, graft, oil, land. On the House floor, I urged my colleagues to vote for my War Powers Resolution with @repmcgovern.bsky.social and Rep. Thomas Massie to block the President’s illegal war and protect American troops.

A naval blockade is unquestionably an act of war. A war that the Congress never authorized and the American people do not want.

Sec. Rubio & Hegseth just briefed the House on military operations in the Western Hemisphere—despite Congress not authorizing them. I will have, alongside Reps. McGovern & Massie, a War Powers Resolution on the House floor blocking Trump’s hostilities with Venezuela. Every member should vote yes.

Happy Hanukkah to all who celebrate in San Antonio and across the country! May you have a wonderful, joyous, and peaceful Hanukkah.

My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of the victims of this horrific attack during a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney, Australia. I am praying for those injured and in critical condition.

Our students deserve so much more. My heart is with the victims and families of the horrific shooting at Brown University today. Congress must step up and end the epidemic of gun violence in our country.

Last week, I introduced a War Powers Resolution with @repmcgovern.bsky.social and Rep. Thomas Massie . This bipartisan bill would block Trump from starting a reckless and lawless regime change war with Venezuela. It will be on the House floor for a vote next week.

Trump can’t have it both ways. He can’t claim to go after drug dealers and pardon notorious drug kingpins. For Americans, U.S. service members, and allies, the Trump Admin must end its lawless and dangerous military strikes in the Caribbean. @msnowevents.bsky.social @anacabrera.bsky.social

The Trump Administration is threatening to levy an additional 5% tariff on Mexico that will backfire and make life even more expensive for folks already struggling with the high cost of groceries, gas, and healthcare premiums—we don’t need another reckless move that will hurt hard-working families.

It's one of my greatest privileges in Congress to nominate young women and men to attend U.S. Service Academies. This year's candidates for our Service Academies were extremely impressive.

Trump is illegally striking ships in the Caribbean to "go after cartels" only to pardon drug king pins. It's complete hypocrisy, it's recklessness, and it's lawlessness.

Donald Trump demanded five congressional seats from Texas. Governor Abbott did what he was told. The conservative Supreme Court sealed the deal. They can’t win by delivering for hardworking Americans—so they turn to corrupt and racist redistricting.

Americans DO NOT want to go to war with Venezuela. There are far more effective ways to stop drugs from entering the country than blowing up boats. And after pardoning a notorious drug kingpin, how can anyone believe Trump is serious about stopping drug trafficking?

This man trafficked 400 tons of cocaine into the United States. He was sentenced to 45 years in prison for his crimes. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/forme...
