I am deeply disappointed in @SpeakerRyan for blocking a vote on the US role in the war in Yemen. History won’t forget his role in prolonging and abetting these humanitarian atrocities.

It has been the great honor of my life to serve our country and the people of Florida. It’s hard to say goodbye to the work and people that I love, but I intend to keep fighting for all that we’ve worked so hard for on behalf of my fellow Floridians and all Americans.

Secretary Pompeo discredits himself, the State Department, and our nation with his false statements this morning on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. To argue the Crown Prince wasn’t involved in this murder is to ignore the obvious and intelligence collected
