Adam Schiff

I think he should have done it, even-handed manner, if he's going to talk about one, he needed to talk about both.

You know, there's no way to reconcile it. I had hope perhaps naively that once the directors spoke, and you had a source that was very much in position to know of any basis that existed for this, that the president would say, OK, enough…

It wasn't simply that the Russians had a negative preference against Secretary Clinton. They also had a positive preference for Donald Trump, isn't that correct?

The president's statements before and his tweets since leading right up to today have no basis in fact.

Absolutely confident there was nothing in this DOJ report to Congress that would confirm what President Trump has been saying.

I think the answer is to figure out, if they haven't been, how do we retool in the modern information and propaganda age.

I want to highlight the importance of fully funding the Broadcasting Board of Governors and specifically prioritizing counter-propaganda broadcasting.

I urge the Subcommittee to support economic development, military parity, and refugee settlement in our important regional partner, Armenia.

Congress must invest in our national security, which includes development and diplomacy programs, alongside a strong defense.

He's certainly prepared for the question and I don't see any reason why he can't answer it. He may even welcome the opportunity.

We're going to have an open hearing now, this will be one of the topics we'll be able to ask the director of the FBI very directly.

I think, you know, they have no way to defend these remarks. They were so incendiary and out of bounds, the best they could do is say, let's give it to the investigative committees and please don't ask us about it any more.

I have really no idea what caused President Trump to assert that his predecessor was engaged in that kind of criminality. It seems completely divorced from reality.

I'm certainly aware of the public reports going back now some months about an alleged connection between Alfa Bank servers and potentially a server linked with the Trump administration.

How the Russians operate, how they seek to exert their inference covertly, whether they do that through third parties, individuals, business people, directly, electronically, through encryption, there are a whole host of issues that need…

We have, I think, reached no conclusion nor could we in terms of issues of collusion because we haven't called in a single witness or viewed a single document on that issue as of yet.

It certainly begs the question of whether Flynn was doing exactly what the president wanted, whether with the president's knowledge, with the president's approval.

This is not healthy skepticism as they would like to portray it. This is very unhealthy essentially avoidance of the facts because they don't suit the president-elect's interests.

If Trump was as smart as he claims to be, he'd understand how little he knows and how much he'll come to defend on the intel community.

Let me just say on behalf of the chairman and myself, we were Raiders fans even when they were a losing team. This is not a newfound preoccupation with the team. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentlewoman from Alabama (Ms. Sewell)…

I think it's outrageous that the National Guard soldiers are being asked to repay bonuses that they had every right to expect.

I am grateful for your reassurances this morning that the FBI would investigate potential violations of the Logan Act.

It is illegal if Trump's adviser met with Russians who have been sanctioned by the United States about lifting these sanctions.

I remind my colleagues that Donald Trump invited Russia to hack the United States.

Based on briefings we have received, we have concluded that the Russian intelligence agencies are making a serious and concerted effort to influence the United States election.
