We do a very good job at fixing broken bodies but not such a great job at healing broken minds with our returning veterans.

I don't think we can afford to wait when it comes to cybersecurity. I think that every day we wait, if an attack occurs - and we're getting hit every day - but if a greater attack occurs, it's going to be on the head of Congress for not acting.

We must continue to pursue peace through diplomacy, but we must also not shrink from our responsibility through the option of strength. We must take advantage of internal resistance and change from within Iran to avert this path of mutual destruction.

I know there's a lot of discussion about building a 2000-mile wall. I think we need to complete the Secure Fencing Act, but we need greater technology and aviation aspects down on the Southwest border so we can see the threat from the sky. Until you can see it, you don't know where it's coming from and how to correctly stop it.

You can have the best technology, but you if have a corrupted, radicalized, bribed official that has access to the plane to put the bomb in the cargo, as what happened in Sharm el-Sheikh, that's a real problem.

I think it's important to note that after the airstrikes began in Iraq and Syria, ISIS began a very aggressive social media campaign calling for these types of attacks, these lone wolf attacks.

Any Human Rights Council reform that allows countries that sponsor terrorism to remain as members, such as Cuba, is not real reform. And in the past, countries such as Libya, Iran and Syria have participated on this council.

In my home State of Texas, the Port of Houston operates as the United States' top port for foreign tonnage and our second largest for total tonnage, so I know how important this bill is for the protection of the American people.

Over the past year, several cases of human rights abuses, specifically sexual exploitation and abuse, by individuals involved in U.N. peacekeeping operations have raised the suspicions of many Members of Congress and members of the International Relations Committee.

We need to know the extent to which Special Envoy John Kerry is farming his work out to progressive environmentalists, which could be a violation of federal law.

At one point the State Department spokesperson Ned Price was encouraging people to make their way to the airport and telling the press the evacuation was' efficient and effective,' but the airport gates were closed, and internal memos were talking about how there were too many dead bodies at the airport and they don't know how to deal with all of them.

Given that the administration ceded control of Kabul to the Taliban, it was a very tactically challenging situation. But it was decisions they made -- or in some instances avoided making -- that led to that tactically challenge situation.

Delayed deliveries of Congressionally-approved sales to Taiwan are undermining Republican House lawmakers ability to deter an attack from China. This is incredibly concerning as China ramps up its belligerence towards Taiwan.

I do think that's a premature comment, off-the-cuff, and everybody listens to the commander-in-chief.

If you go back to the Beijing Olympics, then you saw the creation of this unholy alliance between Chairman Xi and Mr. Putin, they defended each other’s actions — that being Russia defending President Xi if he invaded Taiwan, President Xi saying that NATO is being too aggressive and that they were going to work hand-in-hand together.

Deception is always a model in China, they are trying to find a way to help their ally next door without being too over the top and get the retribution.

I hope that Chairman Xi looks at the difficulties that Russia is having — maybe it is not such a great idea, however, I worry because China’s capabilities far outweigh Taiwan’s, that we need to learn from the lessons and mistakes we made in Ukraine and start heavily arming Taiwan.

Because, I guarantee, Chairman Xi is looking at this right now, in terms of making his calculation as to whether his next move will be to invade Taiwan, i know that Xi is looking at what is happening in Ukraine and learning how best he is going to do this.
