Release the hostage. We’ll have that conversation.

The artificial intelligence and robotics being developed by these multi-billionaires today will allow corporate America to wipe out tens of millions of decent-paying jobs, cut labor costs and boost profits.

I think it’s because investing in AI and robotics will increase their wealth and power exponentially.

The only thing we all had in common was we were all Republicans.

People across this country do not want to see their insurance premiums double or even triple.

Let's discuss through the mediators the logistics and the mechanics behind how that happens, and that has to happen very quickly. That cannot drag on.

Reality is, this is a war zone. I mean, this is a place that's suffered a tremendous amount of destruction. That fighting needs to stop.

Beyond that is what happens after that, and that is, how do we ensure that we can create and help build a Gaza free of terrorism, free of Hamas, free of anything like Hamas.

You're never going to have peace in Gaza as long as there are terrorists operating from that territory threatening the security of Israel.

I believe they're going to be Illinois national guardsmen, so they're not going to be coming from out of state. I spoke to our governor yesterday, and it looks like it's going to be about 300 Illinois guardsmen who will be activated…

I am proud of those people who are standing up right now and saying, we’re not doing business as usual in Washington with this many millions of Americans are literally going to be hurt.

The American people know that they're in charge — Republican president, Republican Senate, Republican House — that they have a responsibility to govern, which means sit down and talk with us so we can address these needs.

Well, look, I mean, the ideal outcome here is, you don't have to carry out any counterterror missions because there are no terrorists in Gaza because Gaza is governed by Palestinian technocrats.

We want to get the hostages out as soon as possible. For that to happen, there can't be a war going on in the middle of it.

The American people are hearing what's happening, and they are demanding that we address this crisis.

Look, Johnson’s not serious about this. He sent all his congressmen home last week and home this week.

You know, they don't want to, Johnson doesn't want to discuss the real issue, the health care crisis facing the American people.
