I was like, now we are cooking. He was like, I want another EO to just say it was Biden's fault. That is like when they admitted that what they are doing is when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. They understand that…

As happened in 2017. They couldn't even do the things that they promised they were going to do, except for the tax cuts. So I think they understand the fundamental weakness of their position, which is we have a President who is likely to…

Don't Google it. Google doesn't work anymore. But anyway, this is the end of this as a useful way to understand something. It is now just an epithet that you hurl when you are not sure what else to say, right? And so, look, back to Russell…

It is not changing laws regarding disaster preparedness or infrastructure; it is changing laws on voter ID.

I just want to drill down on why the profit motive is so dangerous to public service. If you are in the business of trying to figure out where to drop a Starbucks or whatever, you have got to figure out where the people are, right? You…

And we have the Fair Housing Law, we have equal employment law, like you are not allowed to discriminate in housing. And so just to understand, they are not trying to just like cancel these programs related to DEI; they are trying to…

Even in the private sector, just so we are clear--because there are also differences between the public and the private sector in terms of civil service protections and unions and all that. I am happy with that because, by the way, the…

Well, and just to be clear, they don't even have their e- mail accounts working, so think about that. First of all, it is a little weird to send people home and say, We are still operational, and then they can't even get their dot-aid…

Well, I think I have been, on one level, trying not to overreact, but I also think there is a little danger of underreacting. And I have been talking about this a little bit with my brother, who is a professor with an expertise in former…

Yes, I think you are exactly right that we are--look, every day I try to sort out, of the 20 outrages, how many can I even focus on? And to your point, the Gaza thing was deeply offensive, right? Deeply offensive. But also probably not…

we are less than 3 weeks into the Trump administration, and already, Americans across the country are reeling from the chaos. Donald Trump ran on lowering costs for working Americans--an admirable goal, but one he clearly had no intention…

I used to run a social services agency. We had a couple hundred employees, and we delivered mental health services, and we were a Medicaid provider. It was back in the day when we weren't yet receiving electronic payments, and I would go…

I think about my constituents in the IFPTE who work at the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard. I think about 20 years ago, I guess, the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard was low-performing. It was not great. There was the BRAC Commission to determine…

I vote no for the 400,000 people in Hawaii who depend on Medicaid. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Pursuant to rule XII, no debate is permitted during a vote. The Senator will suspend. The clerk will continue to call the roll. The legislative clerk…

Yeah. So the problem is though, you have to do research on females in order to understand what is happening with females.

He is a smart dude. He is a smart dude, and he is a serious guy and actually knows the government. I mean part of the problem with the DOGE folks is they don't really know what they are even looking for. So they literally just, like…

They recommend that he pardon, essentially, the people who improperly entered the building. Now, I would have opposed that. But then he just said: You know what? Pardon them all.

Well, I want to just sort of pause on that because, Chris, you are right. This is a purge. I was sort of yelling in the Press Gallery--maybe not the best idea, but it was at a press conference--and I just basically pointed at all these…
