Well, we`ll take up this report on Tuesday night we`ll vote it out to the House. The House will then vote to hold him in criminal contempt. And once that takes place, the Speaker will send that to the Justice Department. And then, the…

If these Republican members hadn`t joined the president in falsely attacking me for four years, I wouldn`t need to be worried about my security, none of us would.

if Kevin McCarthy had been speaker during the last presidential election, they would have decertified the results.

the Republican Party has turned into an autocratic cult of the former president. It is no longer wedded to even the idea of democracy.

We didn`t have a Justice Department that was interested in justice or the rule of law.

as long as the GOP and its leadership are a cult, an autocratic cult around the former president, there’s no accommodating that.

Well, it’s very hard to see how we can get timely information to protect the country if we can’t enforce our own subpoenas. So I do view this as an early test of whether our democracy is recovering, a test of the principle that no one is…

We had an attorney general in Bill Barr that was interested in turning the DOJ into Donald Trump`s criminal defense law firm. But now we have an independent Justice Department with an attorney general who doesn`t believe anyone should be…

Moreover, if Kevin McCarthy is speaker, then, functionally, Donald Trump is speaker, because McCarthy will not stand up to him, no matter how unethical the demand.

And when that small light was extinguished, prospects for a swift recovery from the damage inflicted by the most grandiose of liars died along with it.

If Kevin McCarthy had been speaker during the last presidential election, they would have decertified the results.

I am very encouraged, on the most immediate need of our committee, that the Justice Department, Merrick Garland's Justice Department, is allowing us access to very top-level people and not standing in the way.

It's very hard to see how we can get timely information to protect the country if we can't enforce our own subpoenas. So I do view this as an early test of whether our democracy is recovering, a test of the principle that no one is above…

I think practically anyone else who did that would be under indictment already.

There may be another attack on the Capitol.

This is how democracies die, when the instruments of democracy are used against democracy itself.

I think Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger among them, and those are very important voices within the Republican Party.

I think that he is a very forward-looking person.

We need to get answers to how this attack on the Capitol took place. Why took place, what we need to do to protect the country going forward? And frankly, what was the President`s role before during and after that insurrection? Do we need…

They just need to be beaten at the polls.

I do think though, as time goes by, and it will become increasingly clear, as we gain more perspective, on the last four years, Americans will come to realize what a disastrous presidency Donald Trump`s was, how many people needlessly lost…

I think that Steve Bannon has been pretty public about his unwillingness to cooperate in any way and from my point of view, it`s not up to him. He is required to show up. He`s required to testify, and if he doesn`t and doesn`t have a…

We need the administration again to make it clear they’re not going to let these witnesses hide behind privilege. And at the end of the day, if the witnesses continued to stonewall, we need the Justice Department to reinforce through…

We will move to hold them in criminal contempt. So, our committee will produce a report about the efforts that were made to get them to testify. We will submit that report and we will call for a vote on the House floor. That will send it…

It turns out they only believe in the maintenance of their own position and power. That is where power has revealed, in these last four years.
