This humanitarian crisis has caused a national security crisis because half the Border Patrol is no longer on the frontline.

I have noticed that the House is quick to schedule hearings whenever there's a policy change or an operational change that some think--and usually they're wrong--that this change may negatively impact someone that knowingly violated our…

I think a lot of us are just frustrated.

The swamp wants to keep centralized control over everything, instead of what is best is politics that are driven locally.

So, almost 99 percent of that jurisdiction is west of the Mississippi, right?

I do see some consequences with this move. It is the Palisades peaches and the Olathe corn.

Congressmen and women, on behalf of the people of western Colorado, I encourage you to support the move of the BLM headquarters to Grand Junction, Colorado--a place where there is actually BLM land.

The idea that BLM leadership shouldn't be influenced by the communities that live, work and play on our public lands is misguided.

The swamp wants to keep centralized control over everything, instead of what is best is politics that are driven locally.

I applaud your effort, and I am looking very forward to seeing a government closest to the people.

This is a bogus probe by the Democrats on this Committee that involved a potential twin metals mine in Minnesota.

Let's not forget Dr. Houser, the Reclamation Science Integrity Officer, who was shoved out the door when he started reporting fraudulent science.

If we want to scrutinize science manipulation, then we should point the finger where it belongs.

This hearing is yet another example of Democrats on this Committee wasting time on political theater.

It is very similar to how some of these other industrialized countries operate, and that is not what I would want for the people of this Nation.

I think there is something else. But my point is something has gone awry here, and the problem is that there are no real gatekeepers.

In fact, if you invested prior to the ACA in all those, you are a very wealthy individual, because one of the things we have overlooked is the lack of competition.
