May God's grace be with you in all the days ahead.

I am firmly convinced that the record, in its entirety, does not justify the extreme step of impeachment and removal of a President.

Our military forces deter potential aggressors and, together with those of our allies, serve to assure the continued security of the free world.

This, more than anything, is what I hope will be my legacy to you, to our country, as I leave the Presidency.
