The big issue that we're grappling with, is getting the documents from the intelligence community and my patience is getting really thin.

This is not just a tech issue. It's about civil society, and the integrity of our political debate.

I think Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg realizes that the longer we delay setting national rules, we raise the bar.

The decision by the President to divert funding meant to support U.S. national security interests so that he can build a border wall only makes us less safe, taking money away from our military -- including funding to support critical projects here in Virginia -- will mean we are less equipped to tackle threats here at home and abroad.

President Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is seemingly incapable of hearing facts that contradict his own views.

President Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that President Trump is seemingly incapable of hearing facts that contradict President Trump own views, the mission of Intelligence Community is to speak truth to power ; Yet in pushing out two dedicated public servants in as many weeks, once again the President has shown that he has no problem prioritizing his political ego even if it comes at the expense of our national security.

We had one interaction at the very beginning in the process, and I have not spoken to him since.

Some Democrats's been under enormous pressure at times from certain members to shut down the investigation, I've been under pressure to reach a conclusion before we're finished, i think we've resisted that, and I think as you see the work product of this committee, the committee will be proud, and candidly the American public will get to see how the Congress is supposed to work.

At this point Bill Barr has lost all credibility, and the only way to clear this up is for Special Counsel Mueller to testify publicly.

At this point I think its going to be a pretty tough argument for them to make, ill listen to whatever case they want to present, but Im not convinced at this point that the advantages of the program have been worth the trouble.

I want technology to stay. I want the social media platforms to stay, but I do think the days of the Wild Wild West where anything goes, people just aren't going to allow it.

Shouldn't we have the right to know whether we're being contacted by a human being versus a bot when you're on social media?

The platform companies are now going to have an opportunity to put their money where their mouth is, to see if they support this legislation and other approaches.

The rapid and wide-scale dissemination of this hateful content — live-streamed on Facebook, uploaded on YouTube and amplified on Reddit — shows how easily the largest platforms can still be misused. It is ever clearer that YouTube, in particular, has yet to grapple with the role it has played in facilitating radicalization and recruitment.

Two years ago when this investigation started, I said it may be the most important thing I'm involved in in my public life in the Senate and nothing I have heard today dissuades me from that view.

I've always said this was really important. I feel after today's testimony even more so, i think it will be interesting to see what happens with his public appearance tomorrow. It may cover more ground.

Obviously this is just one of the key figures in Robert Mueller investigation, and it's critically important that we get them all back, but tomorrow is a good first step.

The United States and its allies need to maintain a common front against the supply chain risk of equipment from countries that do not respect the rule of law and that routinely place extra-judicial surveillance demands on domestic firms.

The company denies that it or its subsidiary or affiliate have committed any of the asserted violations of Mark Warner law set forth in each of the indictments, is not aware of any wrongdoing by Ms. Meng, and believes the Mark Warner courts will ultimately reach the same conclusion.

Michael Cohen was someone who lied to the committee, that got Michael Cohen into real jeopardy. ... Michael Cohen has an enormous number of unanswered questions about Trump Tower and a variety of other items that we need answers to.
