it's shocking, you know, that after 80 years, in a few days, Donald Trump just blew up the western alliance, I mean, completely

this makes our country look weak and we are less safe because of it.

it sends a message that Donald Trump has aligned himself with Russia and not with our allies.

Putin is a criminal. He's a dictator. He attacked Ukraine. He has needlessly and senselessly killed thousands and thousands of women and children and old people.

It's clear who the aggressor is. It's clear who the war criminal is.

since we now know that $10 million did not meet the threshold, we are debating who in this country is so rich that they don't need a tax cut. That one didn't pass. So here is my proposal: Can we at least agree among all of us that no one…

I call up my amendment No. 984 and ask that it be reported by number. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the amendment by number. The senior assistant legislative clerk read as follows: The Senator from Arizona [Mr. Kelly]…

the folks in my State are working hard but finding it tough to get ahead. Now, let's just look at the price of eggs. The Hickman's Family Farms is one of the top egg producers in the country, and they are the biggest in our State. They…

Elon Musk is not a serious guy.

Elon Musk is not a serious guy.

I really care about science. I spent my career as an engineer, as a Navy pilot and a test pilot, and as an astronaut--three jobs where facts matter, where you make decisions based on science, not superstition, because when you are…

today the Senate is deciding whether COL Tulsi Gabbard should be the person who, each day, makes the call on which intelligence gets in front of the President of the United States. That is what the Director of National Intelligence does…

The next couple of years are going to be challenging for our national security as we face threats that grow more complicated every day. We need someone who can meet these challenges. Tulsi Gabbard is not that person.

I will bet a lot of folks watching tonight cannot believe that we are here, talking about the Office of Management and Budget. The Office of Management and Budget--there is nothing more bureaucratic sounding in this whole city, and that…

On behalf of Head Start and Arizona, I vote no. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Pursuant to rule XII, no debate is permitted during a vote. The Senator will suspend. The clerk will continue to call the roll. The legislative clerk called the roll.

Arizona is a couple thousand miles away from here, and as folks know, we are a bit unique in the sense that we do not observe daylight savings time. What that means is that we are either 2 or 3 hours behind DC depending on the time of…

How does this line up with backing the blue? I don’t get it.

I stand before you today as the son of two police officers. Growing up in our family, service always came first. My mom was actually the first woman to become a police officer in our hometown of West Orange, NJ. Before that, she was…

I am concerned that soon the U.S. Senate might confirm the most unprepared nominee to lead the Department of Defense that has ever been put forward. I look at every nominee based on whether they are qualified and committed to do the job…

I think its a pretty simple answer, and it should be, you know, if you're SecDef and the president tells you to do something that's clearly unconstitutional or illegal, you should tell him that and you can refuse to carry out an order of…

Did you take your staff, including young female staff members, to a strip club?

Well, Erin, I walked into that hearing this morning very concerned about his experience to do the job. Defense Department is a huge organization, $850 billion a year budget, 3 million people. He didn't seem to have the requisite experience…

When I walked out of the hearing I have to say I was more concerned about his transparency. He talks about personal issues without specifying what those were, and then when asked about what I think the personal issues might be, and some of…

this bipartisan bill, H.R. 1607, the pumped hydro storage bill, is about delivering affordable and reliable energy to our growing State by expanding hydropower storage. The way it does that is pretty simple. It clarifies the Bureau of…

on behalf of the majority leader, I ask the Chair to execute the order of November 20 with respect to the Murphy nomination. ____________________
