I have been investigating a situation in Southern California where an incredibly problematic employee could not be removed, by the way he is a GS-7, under traditional authorities.

The law started moving the needle. The 2017 Accountability Act led to a 50 percent increase in removal actions.

I sincerely hope we can look beyond the politics and work together to achieve comprehensive immigration reform and address the causes and the concerns we have around this opioid crisis.

I value their partnership and appreciate the bipartisan cooperation that has produced the two nominees on today's panel.

to have commanders, the commandant -- not have a commandant of the Marine Corps, who can exercise his full duties as commandant is destructive to this nation's national security, and it all is laid at Senator Tuberville's feet.

He is wrong and you could just -- not just take my word for it, but take the word of former secretaries of Defense, a bipartisan group have come forward and said that he is wrong. Military officers have come forward and said he is wrong.

Well, I was incredulous, and I checked to make sure that he actually said it and I cannot believe that he would think that White nationalists were not racist. In fact, I think that it is an insult to all military men and women of all…

I wish more of them would speak out. I know they've had many conversations with them. Now, listen, Republican Leader McConnell has spoken up and said that he does not support this.

This is again, a party that is desperate and it's a party that is really sliding into authoritarianism.

Well, first off, it says terrible things about your candidates that you're like, they're so bad that you have to try to force everybody else to support them. And I think it's anti-democratic, small d democratic.

Well, I mean, first off, how awful is your candidate that you have to do this in the first place?

You're taking away the voice of countless citizens if somebody simply says I can't get on the ballot, because I'm not making a fake pledge to support somebody.

It gives a huge advantage to him because people that would be voting in a Republican primary that are legitimately concerned about whether the party can unify around Donald Trump.

Look, every mayor's going to tell you that they need more resources. What we've seen that's been successful is the things that I talked about before, but we've also I think done a lot with diversion at the police station.

We've got to make sure that we use every tool in our toolkit. And it's -- soft power is more, much more effective than the hard power of law enforcement for this particular problem.

Look, if you want to -- if you want to forgive student loans, that's great. I don't know if it's good policy, but you have to go through Congress with that.

The First Amendment isn't there to protect the religious arguments we agree with. It is not there to protect the speech that we agree with. It is actually there to protect the stuff we don't agree with, because that's what's in danger.

I could guarantee you, in his mind right now, he thinks if I win, that's why I think the trial is going to get stalled as long as they possibly can.
