The bottom line is we don't have all the Americans fighting for when they go overseas, our elites go overseas and are not looking out for the United States of America.

I do not believe that the President--again, the criticism that the President is hollowing out the State Department is ridiculous.

China is a country of 1 million oligarchs, no freedom, and they are corrupting the world.

I remember under Bill Clinton when we transferred our utmost, our most important rocket technology to the Chinese.

The Chinese now have a very competitive space system because they got all their R&D from us.

Let us just note that that policy was in place and put in place during the Obama administration.

I consider that singling out our President today is very political.

This, as in all advances in technology, can be seen as the great hope for making things better, or the new idea that there might be new dangers involved.

I would hate to think that we're putting out of work people with lower skills, and we need the dignity of work.

What are we talking about here?

We have an administration that is clearly committed to focus on space and what we can utilize space for.

this industry, the aerospace industry is a tremendous asset to our country, and we are relying on you to, as you are showing today, take leadership and keeping that a major part of our economy.

I believe that we have reached a tipping point in space... the private sector has the possibility of doing so much more.

Are we healthier? Did we handle that with what we did on our engines?

You are healthier because of that.

Having spent time in the Reagan White House and watched the same unrelenting negativity that the Democrats were playing against Ronald Reagan...

We want the nuclear freeze, which would have frozen the Soviets into a--into a superior position with nuclear weapons and Reagan said no.

I am very pleased with our President and I think that when I look at what's going on now and especially in reference to what happened in Korea, forgive me if I say this, but it's sort of like Yogi Berra's 'it's deja vu all over again.'

Well, thank you very much, and I am sorry that I don't join in your optimism, and watching people pray together is not--I mean, the next thing we know--we could say, well, the next step would be sitting around a campfire singing kumbaya…

I am sorry, I would disagree with my colleague and the witness as well. You both seem to be underestimating the antagonism of the Korean people to the Japanese.

Afghanistan is a society that is based on tribalism and ethnicity, and our greatest and what has been reconfirmed today, Mr. Chairman, is that we continue down a road of trying to remake Afghanistan into a democratic system, and that's why…

What really worked in Afghanistan--what really worked after 9/11 was when we allied ourselves with the anti-Taliban forces...

We made a mistake in the beginning, trying to, as I say, recreate this centralized government in Kabul...

If we wanted to eliminate the poppy production in Afghanistan, we could do it within a week.

I want President Trump to succeed and, beyond that, I have defined success with a lower, more achievable standard...
