I refuse to vote to shut our government down, and that's not going to change.

It was hours upon hours of religious slurs and bigotry.

I think there is a role for the federal government.

I think both the people in Portland and across America have to decide about this.

I think you lose the description as activists once you start wielding weapons, and you show up with helmets and you're breaking windows.

I don't know that it's helpful to label groups, particularly since antifa, there are some real people in antifa, they're real violent people.

This decision, in my judgment at this point in time, is up to a handful of Democrats.

I was very heartened that the President said that, and you're right. I support what the United States voted for in the UN in 1947 a state of Israel and a state of Palestine.

We need the meeting. It’s a first step, but only a first step. We need a serious negotiation.

It would be a big mistake for the Prime Minister Netanyahu to look at all of these nations that have been allies, saying you need to change course, and for him to just pull his head in the shell and turn inward and continue to isolate…

The Russians have got to wake up and accept reality here.

The only thing about the president's threat to fire more people is, he's already doing it.

How many more people are they willing to lose? How many more people are they willing to kill for very little, if any, gain in the military advantage on the ground there?

Our responsibility is to, yes, express our views. Yes, protest. But best done at a distance from these federal troops … because their goal is to create an engagement, an engagement that will lead to conflict.

I think he has the legal authority to send troops to protect federal buildings and federal proceedings such as courts.

Now if the President at this meeting is going to rant and just yell at Democrats and talk about all his alleged grievances and say this, that and the other thing, we won’t get anything done.
