I think the president campaigned on being a president of peace. He’s already ended six wars; he’s trying to end another. I think it’s kind of disgraceful that the American media is attacking the president for trying to bring peace to the…

I believe that Gov. Newsom’s approach is a responsible approach. He said this is going to be responsible. We’re not going to try to completely maximize it.

I really can’t overemphasize this enough. It’s the greatest country in the world. We’ve got moms and dads and young families; shouldn’t they be able to enjoy public spaces without vagrants taking away basic public safety from the American…

Sen. Mark Warner acknowledged broad, bipartisan agreement that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence is in need of thoughtful reform.

And we’re going to do it in a temporary basis because we’re keeping our eye on where we want to be long term.

Sen. Tom Cotton called the effort an important step towards returning ODNI to that original size, scope, and mission.

This should be a monument to American greatness. This should not be a place where parents of small children are afraid to bring them ... because we have empowered criminals over the people who actually need public safety in this city.

I think that approach is a smart, measured approach, designed to address a very particular problem in a very particular moment in time.

Let's free D.C. from lawlessness. Let's free Washington, D.C., from one of the highest murder rates in the entire world. Let's free Washington, D.C., so that young families can walk around and feel safe and secure.
