"While we are winding down combat operations in Afghanistan, we are also facing the most insidious range of threats the country has seen in a long time."

"One of the major domestic challenges we face is the flow of illegal drugs into this country."

"The threats confronting our security, our interests, and our ideals are growing not diminishing."
