But I think it's important that we state our conviction. And I think I am standing alone on this point saying, let's -- let the facts develop and be patient.

Well, I think that's the analysis that in the short term, people believe he has been targeted, believes that the prosecution is not just and the charges are not valid.

And so it is a concern for, as I call the body politic, that we're going to have this difficulty, this challenge, this crisis that he faces throughout the election seasons.

Well, you're right, Anderson. It's fact not only unlikely, clearly he's not going to. And there's not any requirement that he does it. Nobody can make him do it. The reason I said that is, first of all, I believe that the office that…

a dark day for America when a former president is indicted.

We need to have alternatives again to Donald Trump. We don't need to be led by arrogance and revenge in the future.

We shouldn't undermine science, we shouldn't undermine the medical community that's very important to our public health.

January 6th was a serious affront to our democracy, and we have to treat that seriously. And we can't defend what happened on that day. And we stand up for the Constitution.

We have to come together so we can then get the important work done of looking at the border security issue, to looking at controlling federal spending that's adding to inflation.

The American people put the Republicans in charge of the House. We have to operate as a team.

The fact that President Trump has already announced accelerates everyone's timeframe.

Thank you, L.F. It is great to be back in the House today. I am glad you have made passing reference to the Senate. It is good to be on the House floor where the motto in this institution as I can always remember is, the other party is the…

I would not be supporting him for 2024. He acted irresponsibly. During that time, he was a risk to the nation, absolutely.

This is simply about abortion.

I think it's a very appropriate ruling.

We’ve fought for 50 years to have this returned to the states. We've won that battle. It's back to the states.

This is a day that those in the pro-life movement have worked for for over 40 years.

I think you`ve got to be able to talk about the AR 15 style weapons and whether that`s an 18 or 21 age, you have to at least have a conversation about that.

I do not believe Trump is the one to lead our party and our country again.

It’s not a time for shutdowns. It’s not a time for repressive measures. Let’s work our way through it, and all survived together to keep our economy going at the same time, addressing the urgent need of our workforce and our increase…

I applaud the president while we disagree on some strategy issues, I do appreciate him deep politicizing this effort. We`re all in this together and it doesn`t make any difference of your partisan stripe. Let`s get the vaccinations out and…

The Department of Health advises people to never take any medication intended to treat animals and to only take ivermectin as prescribed by their physician.

And later, we just have to adjust to the new facts that you have and the reality of what you have to deal with. And so, I asked the legislature to redo the law that prohibited those requirements or those options for the school districts to…

We are going to be living with people dying if we do not increase the vaccination rates so I still need to get that message out.
