We, I believe, should do what we need to do to help defend Saudi Arabia against aggression directed at Saudi Arabia including from Yemen and from the Houthis.

This has been just a national security disaster for the United States.

If we are going to meet them on a playing field even strength then we need to reconcile----

He wants to disempower that nation economically and politically so that eventually they just give up and hand the keys back to a Kremlin-friendly government.

What are the capacities that State does not have today that it needs to be able to compete?

It does not make sense to me, given the threats presented in the United States today that we have more military band members than we do diplomats.

We will review the entirety of the relationship to make sure that as it stands it is advancing the interests and is respectful of the values that we bring to that partnership.

Hubris is probably one of them, and so I appreciate your comment about humility.

If we don't do this accountability the right way, then I think we're just inviting for there to be a permanent insurrection in this country that will plague the Biden presidency for the next four years.

My sense of history is that civilizations that skipped the accountability phase after an attempted coup are those that are doomed to have that insurrection rise again.

Part of the reason why it is important to remove the president is that it's pretty clear that he is orchestrating a cover-up of what happened on Wednesday.

If you had federal law enforcement standing in front of the cameras right now telling people how many folks have been arrested, what will happen to you if you come to Washington for the inauguration to try to disrupt it, that would be a…

But I think it's important to recognize that there's a whole bunch of other Republicans in Congress, who actually do believe that their loyalty to the President outstrips their loyalty to the country.

Right now, the most serious attempt to overthrow our democracy in the history of this country is underway. Those who are pushing to make Donald Trump President for a second term, no matter the outcome of the election are engaged in a…

Josh Hawley and anyone who supports his effort are engaged in the attempted overthrow of democracy. Senator Hawley's efforts are not going to change the result of the election. But they pose a grave threat to American democracy, maybe not…

600 billionaires got a trillion dollars richer this year. And the question before Senate Republicans is this. Are you willing to spend an amount equal to just half of that windfall to America's billionaires in order to help 160 million…

But let's be clear. Josh Hawley and anyone who supports his effort are engaged in the attempted overthrow of democracy. There is no evidence that there was any fraud. Senator Hawley apparently believes that, if a Democrat wins the…

Republicans want to undermine government in general. They really don't believe the government can solve any problems.

If American democracy is going to survive, we have to do more than just say elections aren't rigged. We actually have to repair democracy.

Republicans have decided -- not all Republicans -- but far too many have decided that if democracy can't keep Trump in power, then democracy ceases to have any real purpose.

If this is the tactic that they will employ, if they are willing to just overturn an election result because if a Democrat won, well, it must be because of fraud even if we can't find it, well, then there will be a close enough election in…

There are a lot of flag waving Republican leaders out there who are undermining the faith that we all have in fair elections, because their allegiance is first and foremost, to Donald Trump.

Well, they are destroying democracy. They're destroying democracy and I'm not engaging in hyperbole here.

Because you have a majority of Republicans in this country who believe that Joe Biden won the election fraudulently, when there's no evidence that that happens. And that belief as it festers, and it grows, this idea that if Democrats win…
