Sir, I'm excited to support your nomination, but I just want to say for the record, I don't like you.

the historic nature, as Senator Menendez mentioned, of this nomination, cannot be understated.

I am proud that this American is going to the Federal bench because I would be terrified if he ran for office against me in the 2026 elections.

There are times I reflect, now, and I say to myself maybe I wish that mother, that woman who could have received training and been a responsible gun owner, would have had an opportunity to protect her children and herself from that husband.

Our Muslim communities have waited far too long for better representation in our democracy.

We are tired of big Government.

I could not be more proud of joining Senator Booker in recommending Adeel to President Biden for this important vacancy.

Adeel would make history as the first-ever Muslim to serve on our Federal appellate courts.

He wants to strip you of the ability to protect your family, your community, and your country.

I am here to say that this policy, in my opinion, is arbitrary. It is dangerous. It is overreaching.

We are the leader. I believe we are the best Nation on the face of the Earth in every way, and this is one of those ways.

No, we are not Europe. No, we are not other countries. No, we are not a globalist country. We are American exceptionalists.

People in America, in the United States of America, do like to have their independence. They like to have their autonomy. They like to have their freedom.

I would like to change the Supreme Court's mind about that, because I know it has opened up for everybody.

Israel and Ukraine may be 2,000 miles apart, but the evils they face are connected. Hamas and Putin have waged unprovoked wars on neighboring democracies, murdering thousands of civilians and kidnapping innocent people, including children…

I am grateful that this man, who learned about the United States of America and our legal system, fell in love with it in Pakistan, made a determination to be a part of it, here in the United States of America.

As you know, in 2020 the Trump Administration issued a ruling ending the longstanding requirement for tax-exempt organizations to disclose substantial donor names and addresses to the IRS.

Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, the IRS finally has some resources to go after political malfeasance.
