We have a very capable adversary in Russia with capable cyber and nuclear abilities.

President Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine have met the moment for their country.

Now, the question is, will we meet the moment as a leader, a global leader to help Ukraine fight Vladimir Putin, to defeat what he’s doing in Ukraine and stand up for democracy?

We should give them the jets. We should give them the tools to effectively enforce their own no-fly zone.

You purposely had this common goal of keeping us from doing our jobs. That is a civil rights violation down the middle.

If we can brand ourselves that Democrats deliver rescue plan, restaurant grants, getting the vaccine out there, getting kids back in schools, people back in churches, infrastructure dollars out there, African-American women on the Supreme…

They have a duty to investigate this as a potential criminal matter.

The Department of Justice has to make sure that there is accountability for this going forward.

There is a pattern of mishandling of classified information.

Donald Trump has, allegedly, has done what he accused Hillary Clinton of accidentally doing.

When you look at some of the other materials, unclassified, like the embarrassing sharpie poster board, of course, he was doing it to protect his own self interest, to protect history from judging him, for the clownish later that he was.

There is a real effort right now for the Republicans to rig the upcoming election, to limit access to the ballot box, put barriers in place and then if they were to achieve the majority, completely shut down the January 6th Commission.

They voted down 350 million in new police funding that they continue to dishonor the police. They vote against the Gold Medals for the police officers who served that day.

Well, Jonathan, look, if your neighbor came over and stepped on your porch holding a knife, a gun, a machete and said that he wanted to talk, I don’t think you would call the police and say, you know what, we’re going to settle this. It’s…

Everything that Jim Jordan, Donald Trump, Kevin McCarthy and the Republican Party represents is the opposite of that.

It shows how much work they have put in with nearly 700 witnesses, 60,000 documents. It’s a submarine mission right now and it’s frustrating to your viewers because they haven’t seen everything.

He would really do a service to his country if he just come forward and tell us what he saw under oath so that we can have a complete picture of what happened that day.

It seems to me, based on the exchange we are having today, that the inconsistency can be addressed here in this Committee, and that is something that you would be okay with?

But the statute does allow for you to mandate not allowing whole milk in schools for breakfast or lunch. Is that correct?

You are promoting it and I get that and I appreciate that, but you are not mandating it because the statute doesn't allow for you to mandate that? Is that correct?

We need to make them answer these questions. I think that what you will see is that one party prefers voting, and one party prefers violence.

Yes. We ask for it, Lawrence. And he did not come in. He did not provide any statements. That would have been a gift to show his criminal intent.

If we don't bring this in a way that the American people understand, that there's a party that prefers law and order and there's a party that wants chaos, we are going to miss a real opportunity with so much at stake for our democracy.

Will they choose violence or voting? Will they choose fraud or facts? Or will they choose chaos and the constitution?

I have -- we have a plan to win them.
