When the history of this administration is written, I would not want to be you looking back on what historians say about your tenure.

The question is, how many children have been placed with known MS-13 gang members? We know of one. What do you know?

Yet, you did so anyway after you were warned by the case manager.

What I'm hearing back is you don't do anything. You shrug your shoulders and then send another batch of kids out to another group of sponsors' homes.

Challenge us--don't dance, come very clear--if we do not have the money for the 8 to 10 icebreakers now or next budget year, we will fail to achieve the necessary presence in the Arctic.

the fact of the matter is, we will not have a presence in the Arctic.

we have continually underfunded the Coast Guard icebreaker program--continually.

The bottom line here, I am going to ask you guys, is there a national security threat in the Arctic as a result of the inability of the United States to have a presence in the Arctic?

the only way we are going to do it is to rethink how we are going to get those icebreakers.

If Congress does not double the Coast Guard's budget in 2026, the Service will either have to abandon the program, cease construction of Offshore Patrol Cutters, or cut significant portions of its operations.

Budgetary decisions associated with the procurement of icebreakers cannot be made in a vacuum.

The Coast Guard is the premier agency tasked with projecting sovereignty in the Arctic, which is a critically important mission.

While recapitalization of the icebreaking fleet was identified as a priority almost two decades ago, we are still several years and over $1 billion away from the delivery of the first Polar Security Cutter.

Unfortunately, the Coast Guard icebreaker mission is woefully underresourced.

It's time for Congress to step up.

I have major concern about the delayed PSC program and the amount of funding actually needed to just get one ship built.

As the Select Subcommittee gathers today, our Nation faces a pivotal moment when it comes to the future of pandemic prevention and preparedness.

Well, to the president, I say no seriously, who is your pick for attorney general? Because this pick is a middle finger to Democrats and sane Republicans.
