On the eve of Labor Day weekend, only days before the start of Brett Kavanaugh’s hearing, @realDonaldTrump announced he would stop the Senate from reviewing over 100k pages of Kavanaugh’s records from the White House Counsel’s Office. #WhatAreTheyHiding nyti.ms/2Caj0s4?smid=n…
.@realDonaldTrump's 11th hour move to hide Brett Kavanaugh’s record is unprecedented. When Justice Kagan was nominated, NONE of her WH records were withheld because of executive privilege. So what's in these documents? And why is Trump so eager to bury them? #WhatAreTheyHiding
The Constitution directs the Senate to provide advice and consent on all judicial nominees. We cannot effectively fulfill that duty when @realDonaldTrump refuses to disclose Kavanaugh's record. Senate Republicans know this, too – they just don't care. #WhatAreTheyHiding
The American people deserve a Senate that insists on doing its job. What they've got is a Senate that bows to @realDonaldTrump and covers for Brett Kavanaugh. This isn't a SCOTUS confirmation – it's a charade. #WhatAreTheyHiding
This is not a drill. Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings start tomorrow. The Supreme Court, and the future of our country – are both on the line. If we’re going to #StopKavanaugh, we need you to speak out now.

Exhibit #237 of why anyone running for federal office should have to disclose their tax returns. Congress needs to pass my legislation to #EndCorruptionNow, which would force candidates (and @realDonaldTrump) to make their tax returns public. nyti.ms/2P6S6mK?smid=n…
.@realDonaldTrump was the 1st presidential candidate in 40 years not to make his tax returns public. Maybe because he got over $400M from his dad to start out & probably committed tax fraud. @nytimes’ reporting is likely just the tip of the iceberg – what else is he hiding?
If @realDonaldTrump was willing to go to such incredible lengths to hide how he really “made” his fortune – what’s stopping him now from bilking the presidency and American taxpayers for everything they’re worth?

Rural housing in the US is falling apart. Decades of federal discrimination have excluded generations of Blacks from homeownership. Housing costs for everyone, everywhere, are skyrocketing – while America's wealthiest families shield billions from taxes. I have a plan to fix it.
I’m introducing the American Housing & Economic Mobility Act to build 3 million new homes in 10 years, bring down monthly rents by 10%, & create 1.5 million jobs. By asking 10k of the richest families to pay their fair share, it doesn’t add to the deficit. warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
My new bill:
✅Makes record investments to build homes including in rural areas.
✅Gets localities to scrap zoning rules that make housing more expensive.
✅Helps first-time homebuyers in formerly redlined areas.
✅Offers relief to families still struggling after the 2008 crash.

John McCain was fiercely devoted to his family, his constituents, and his country. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones during this difficult time. As a nation, we all share in the sense of emptiness his passing has left behind.
John McCain and I disagreed on many things, and sometimes quite forcefully. But even when we disagreed, I always respected that his heart was focused on doing what he thought was best for the American people.
Democrat or Republican, foreign leader or President of the US, John McCain would go toe to toe with anyone to fight for what he thought was right. At a time when character & integrity are under siege, we all mourn the loss of a public servant who lived with courage & conviction.

Corruption in Washington isn’t a small problem – and we can’t fight it with small solutions. I’m about to unveil my legislation to #EndCorruptionNow and put a stop to it once and for all. Watch live here:
Our government systematically favors the rich over the poor, the donor class over the working class, the well-connected over the disconnected. This is deliberate, and we need to call it for what it is – corruption, plain and simple. #EndCorruptionNow
Today, I’m introducing the most ambitious anti-corruption legislation proposed in Congress since Watergate. This is an aggressive set of reforms that would fundamentally change the way Washington does business. #EndCorruptionNow

My big new bill, the Accountable Capitalism Act, would restore the idea that big American companies should look out for their workers, not just their shareholders. Why do we need to pass this bill? Just look at what’s happened since the #GOPTaxScam passed. vox.com/2018/8/2/17639…
The #GOPTaxScam showered more than a trillion dollars on big American corporations – a huge windfall for wealthy shareholders and executives. But workers have seen their real wages go DOWN. washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2…
Let’s look at some individual companies: @WellsFargo got a $3.4 billion boost from the #GOPTaxScam. It turned around and announced plans to close 900 branches, while rewarding executives and shareholders with tens of billions of dollars in stock buybacks.

The Banking Cmte might vote tmrw on Kathy Kraninger’s nomination to head @CFPB. She has no experience fighting for consumers, but part of her current job was to help @realDonaldTrump tear kids away from their parents at the border. Will Republicans reward her w/a big promotion?
At OMB, Kraninger oversees the agencies that conducted child separations & she admitted to me that @OMBPress “has an extensive role” in managing immigration policy. A former official said it would be “shocking” if she wasn’t involved in child separations. americanbanker.com/news/cfpb-nomi…
Many kids are still separated and some of the kids who have been reunified aren't the same. One 5-year old boy asked his mom to breast feed him even though she hadn't nursed him in years. That's the legacy of the policy Kraninger helped carry out. nytimes.com/2018/07/31/us/…
