just over 8 years ago, Donald Trump assumed the Office of the Presidency for the first time. He began that administration with at least a few people of independence and stature, people that had enough of a respect for themselves and the…
8 days ago, democracy and the rule of law were dealt another blow. It wasn't at the hands of a mob this time. No bear spray. No battering rams. No chants of ``Hang Mike Pence'' or ``Where's Nancy?'' echoing through these halls. This time…
the men and women serving at home and overseas under the flag of the United States of America are counting on us. To guide the Pentagon through times of war or peace, they need and deserve a Secretary of Defense who is a person of…
I rise today to address the Senate on behalf of the people of California. And I thank my colleague Senator Padilla for his leadership during this time of incredible difficulty and strain for our fellow constituents. The unimaginable has…
Running up that margin as much as possible, and turning people out has to be our priority.
I do. You know, by the standards of today, I think she can win overwhelmingly.
I think what the president said was all too accurate. Shockingly, breathtakingly, tragically accurate.
I think it's the kind of nonsense you hear on the campaign trail. Look, we are where we are, tragically one year after October 7th, because Hamas massacred, raped, tortured 1,200 people a year ago.

Due to unforeseen events, I was unfortunately unable to cast my vote for legislation considered on the House floor today. Had I been able to be present, I would have voted according to the following: NO, Roll Call 388, on Amendment No. 25…
I think they both should be willing to take a test. I think, frankly, a test would show Donald Trump has serious illness of one kind or another. But, ultimately, the decision is going to come down to what Joe Biden thinks is best. And if…
He has been an extraordinary president. He has created millions and millions of jobs. He has expanded and strengthened our NATO alliances.
This is not just about whether he gave it the best college try, but rather whether he made the right decision to run or to pass the torch. That is the most important decision for him to make right now. This is about whether this country…
Given the Supreme Court decision now essentially making any future Trump dictator and a king, it's all the more important.
You can't discount the chance that, if he loses again, when he loses again, that he will go to even greater lengths to try to overturn the results. The only remedy, really, is the one in all of our hands. And that is to make sure that Joe…
Either he has to win overwhelmingly, or he has to pass the torch to someone who can. It's as simple as that. Because what the Supreme Court did in that decision was give the next occupant of that office, whether it's Joe Biden or anyone…
Donald Trump you can always count on to do what's best for Donald Trump, but Joe Biden you can count on to do what's right for the country.
The Vote was closed before 92 members could vote. Had I been present, I would have voted NAY on Roll Call No. 283.
I'm a proud cosponsor of the American Music Fairness Act and a strong supporter of what this bill at its core and what it stands for, and what it means to the creators.

Contempt: to hold something as beneath the dignity of consideration; something to be scorned; an attitude toward something that is inferior, worthless; open disrespect for something that is vile, despised, disgraced; insolence in the…
Those who bring this motion bring contempt, all right, but only upon themselves. {time} 1200 Mr. McCLINTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, for the first time in American history, a Presidential…
I want to begin by quoting the jury in the Manhattan hush money payment trial. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty. Guilty.
