As you know, the United States has had no boost phase missile defense program since approximately 2009, when the Obama Administration terminated the Airborne Laser and the Kinetic Energy Interceptor.

Yet the threat to the homeland is considerably greater this year than last: Why are we waiting for enemies to field capabilities before we build defenses?

Aren't there obvious advantages to engaging a missile in this phase of flight, such as precountermeasure and decoy release?

Were you satisfied that we had sufficient missiles available to the PACOM commander during the escalation in tensions and the threat of medium-range rocket launches by the North Korean regime?

I expect additional persons of interest to surface and perhaps additional suspects. This isn't over yet.

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 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.

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…

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.

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…

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.

Space is a critical element of our national security, in both peace and wartime environments.

I am very concerned of the impact of sequestration on national security space programs.

I think it feeds the suicide increase rate that we see in the military and with veterans.

I don't see enough interaction with the private sector and the Department.

We can't talk to anybody in the Department.

April 15, the dreaded tax day, is almost here. According to the nonpartisan Tax Foundation, Americans will have to work 108 days this year just to be able to pay their taxes--108 days. That's just not right, and Americans are sick of it…

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.

This week, the House will vote on the House Republican budget resolution. This will be the third straight year that the House will pass a budget. The budget is not just a plan for this coming fiscal year, but it's also a plan to balance…

I believe that the commanders of STRATCOM are interested in preserving the diversity of the U.S. arsenal so that we can safeguard our ability to deter war.

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.

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.

Pakistan poses unprecedented nuclear danger that demands our full attention.
