We once held certain truths to be self-evident, that we are all created and that is what makes us equal.

I talked to the president yesterday one on one and I will just say to you that the man approached me in a reasonable rational manner and I thought it was amazing to see a president this engaged personally.

North Korea has evolved from an eccentric regional problem with a nuclear weapons issue into an extremely dangerous nuclear threat to America.

the dangerous state of our Nation's missile defense capabilities and what the Obama years have done to our ability to deter and defeat the deadliest weapons known to mankind.

President Obama's policies placed Iran, the world's largest financier and enabler of terrorism, on track to legally build a nuclear weapons capability within the confines of the JCPOA.

We can preserve this the last best hope of mankind on Earth for our children, or we can sentence them to take that very last step into 1,000 years of darkness.

I am here today to alert you to the dangerous state of our Nation's strategic capabilities and what the Obama years have done to our ability to deter and defeat the deadliest weapons known to humanity.

Under President Obama, the Kim dynasty in North Korea evolved from an eccentric regional problem with nuclear weapons into an extremely dangerous nuclear threat to the United States.

I know that when you interviewed Mrs. Clinton you were up against someone that really should have an earned doctorate of duplicity and deception.

There is really only two main ways to govern, and that is by the rule of men or the rule of law.

the very bedrock foundation principle that gave birth to America in the first place was the conviction that all human beings are children of God and that they are created equal in his sight.

the result is that today in America between 40 and 50 percent of all African-American babies, virtually 1 in 2, are killed before they are born.

these are travesties that should assault the mind and conscience of every American.

An Hispanic child is three times more likely to be aborted than a White child. A Black child is five times more likely to be aborted than a White child.

Your efforts are not wasted here. Only God knows what fruits will come from your talk here, but you are being responsible and you are letting your compassion, your commitment to humanity prevails here in this forum.

Torture is something that those who are perpetrators and those who are observers are completely shamed by it and the more that you are able to express it in open terms, the more that there are people out there that you will never see that…

When we see malevolence and evil desecrate the innocent it is incumbent upon those of us who are part of the arsenal of freedom to respond.

I feel like that in the case of Iraq and ISIS that that responsibility was unconscionably failed and fell so short of what it should have been.
