These are working people. ... and all that they ask for, as I have said many times on this floor before, is a chance to get back up on their feet and be able to provide for their families, and I can't for the life of me understand why Both Hawley and Sanders can not get so much as a vote on these bills.

That was before this Ukrainian crisis. Who benefits from this? Vladimir Putin, so now, it is time to show some resolve with Putin and to show him we’re not just going to allow him to have his energy sector.

This is going to be a real test for them, they have been willing to give him the pipeline, to give him the energy, which is the dollars that he needs in order to carry out these acts of aggression.

What dictators like Vladimir Putin got from that was America is willing to be dependent on foreign nations for its energy, America is willing to give up our energy dominance in the world, huge mistake, huge mistake.

Our policy should be help the Ukrainians defend themselves, we should help arm them, we should get our energy sector producing again, and we ought to shut down the Russians, that’s what we need to do. That would be a strong response.

We need to be focusing our military power in Asia on China but we can walk and chew gum and we’ve got to show strength in Europe, this is a dangerous time because China, of course, wants to gobble up Taiwan, they have their own imperial ambitions in Asia.

We have got to focus on that, we cannot get distracted by what Putin is trying to do—we’ve got to counter what he’s trying to do, but we have got to maintain our number one focus on China, and that is why I am opposed to sending more troops to Europe.

And we should get ours back on its feet.

We should sanction their energy sector down to its knees, and we should open up ours — that, I think, is a great strategic opportunity, the right thing to do for our economy, and I’m going to propose legislation to do it.

That silence must end. The American people deserve answers, you said last fall that you did not know whether members of your office coordinated with the NSBA, but since then you have had plenty of time to find out. You must immediately explain your own role in this affair, as well as how intimately involved the NSBA and other groups were in shaping the official actions of your office.

They have reformed tough-on-crime practices, in fact, I'd say they're pro-crime.

It was a political demonstration, that, by the way, is totally lawful, but when you cross over into violence by attacking cops, breaking laws, that's not First Amendment speech.

He’s got a choice — is he going to nominate a pro-America, pro-Constitution justice, or is he going to keep doing what he’s doing and divide this country with a hard woke-left activist? we’re about to find out. I hope Republicans are ready to stand up for the Constitution.

The rule of law is blind, right ? So when you commit a crime, you should pay for that crime, wherever it was done.

Millions of voters concerned about election integrity deserve to be heard, i will object on January 6 on their behalf.

I leave to the former president -- I never judge the appropriateness or not of his comments, I mean, that's not my role, so, he -- you know, I think, that that's his view, then that's his view.

Over the past year, Americans have watched stunned as a radical ideology spread through our country's elite institutions -- one that teaches America is an irredeemably racist nation founded by White supremacists.

This is unacceptable. No government security should permit individuals to use an arrest warrant or deportation notice to pass a security check.

I wouldn't exclude people out of the basis on race, gender, religion or whatever else… I think he should consider all qualified nominees. I think there's a lot of great people to choose from.

We ought to break them up, at the end of the day, here's the deal: The last thing America needs is another Big Tech robber baron who doesn't care anything for free speech, and that's exactly what Twitter is giving us.

A diplomatic boycott of the Beijing Olympics is a joke, china doesn’t care if Biden and his team show up. They want our athletes.
