The question is, do you believe the current number of U.S. troops is sufficient to achieve the goals that you articulated--defeat ISIS, remove Iranian-backed forces from Syria, and achieve a political solution?

So here's the bottom line: there was no collusion, there was no obstruction. This whole thing was a takedown attempt at the president of the United States.

I don't do cover ups. You people probably know that better than anybody.

When it comes to great steaks, I've just raised the steaks.

Madam Speaker, America has always been a work in progress, and, therefore, we always have the opportunity to make our democracy better, stronger, when we simply do the right thing. The Declaration of Independence may have said that ``all…

Madam Speaker, I also want to thank the chairman of the subcommittee, my good friend, Mike Levin, who is doing an outstanding job for co-leading the bill with us. I urge my colleagues to pass H.R. 2045, as amended.

Madam Speaker, I rise today to strongly support H.R. 2045, the Veterans' Education, Transition, and Opportunity Prioritization Plan, or the VET OPP Act of 2019, which would create a significant structural change at the Department of…

Madam Speaker, I rise in strong support of H.R. 2326, the Navy SEAL Chief Petty Officer William ``Bill'' Mulder (Ret.) Transition Improvement Act of 2019. As ranking member of the Economic Opportunity Subcommittee, I am proud of the work…

....Democrat leadership is tearing the United States apart, but I will continue to set records for the American People – and Nancy, thank you so much for your prayers, I know you truly mean it!

The Democrats are on a fishing expedition, wanting to interview the same people, and see the same things, as we just went through for two years with Robert Mueller and the 18 Angry Dems. Never happened to a president before. Never even…

....But they really want a do-over! You can’t investigate and legislate simultaneously - it just doesn’t work that way. You can’t go down two tracks at the same time. Let Chuck, Nancy, Jerry, Adam and all of the rest finish playing their…

Also, tremendous work is being done on pure renovation - fixing existing Walls that are in bad condition and ineffective, and bringing them to a very high standard!

I asked you then if the President had received a briefing from you or anyone in your Department on potential Russian interference in our elections in 2020, and you said he had not received a briefing.
