I argue we can save ourselves a lot of time if we can get the Russians to cooperate fully and I hope they do that. I think it would be the right thing to do.

The Public Record
Mike Dennis Rogers is a former U.S. Representative for Alabama's 3rd congressional district, serving from 2003 to 2015. A member of the Republican Party, Rogers held various influential positions in Congress, including Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. During his tenure, he focused on national security and intelligence issues, advocating for policies to strengthen the military and enhance oversight of intelligence operations.
There are persons of interest that we're very concerned about, and again, the Russians can be very, very helpful, we think, in helping us make that determination about who they talked to there, who they may have communicated there, who…
He's arrested Friday night. The magistrate, the judge intervenes into what is a legal activity, the interview, that was deemed so by a U.S. court decision. And that is the public safety exception to Mirandizing.
The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee casting doubt on the notion that Times Square was the alleged marathon bombers' next target.
What we know happened is that we do believe they had a plan for another attack. They had actually built the devices, and not used them. But from the investigators I've been talking to, they believe it was going to be probably more likely…
I am very concerned of the impact of sequestration on national security space programs.
Space is a critical element of our national security, in both peace and wartime environments.
We all have ears. We have got to use them and try to help out when we can, because I think this is a problem that is Congress-inflicted.
It is inappropriate to make national defense absorb over 60 percent of the cuts in the Budget Control Act, when it is only 16 percent, 17 percent of total Federal Government spending.
The President's sequestration idea, which was promoted by the Republican House leadership, the Democrat Senate leadership, and a majority of the Democrats in Congress and a majority of the Republicans in Congress, quite frankly, is, as the…
I think it feeds the suicide increase rate that we see in the military and with veterans.
During the last Congress and again this year, House Intelligence Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Michigan) and Ranking Member Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Maryland) introduced the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, also known as CISPA.
Pakistan poses unprecedented nuclear danger that demands our full attention.
Doesn't this mean, if the logic of the NPR holds true, that, the assumption we can rely on our conventional capabilities and conventional deterrent, should be reconsidered?
Further deep U.S. nuclear reductions will deepen the concern already apparent among some key allies that the U.S. nuclear umbrella is losing credibility.
Several U.S. allies, notably South Korea and Japan, already are deeply concerned that the U.S. drive to denuclearize is not reciprocated by the neighboring countries that pose nuclear-armed threats to them.
What do you know about the subject matter that these general officers don't know?
Excepting for the fact that the Russians hate both of these capabilities, and the Senate has traditionally been hostile to conventional prompt global strike, can you state how much it would cost to deploy these capabilities?
The obligation to assure U.S. allies in Europe and Asia of American commitment to their defense and to extend deterrence to them would fall to U.S. strategic nuclear and conventional forces, which are amply capable of fulfilling it.
Mutual assured destruction (MAD) no longer occupies a central psychological or political space in the U.S.-Russian relationship.
We will engage Russia to seek further reductions in our nuclear arsenals . . . because our ability to influence others depends on our willingness to lead.
I worry that in the long term, this situation will allow the President to further walk back on his commitments to modernize and maintain the deterrent.
