Richard Blumenthal actually said...

"I want to offer a sort of personal testimonial to the importance of the PACT Act."

"I have written to Secretary Austin, urging him to declassify those records."

"For anyone, including my colleagues in the Senate, on both sides of the aisle, to believe that this is normal, acceptable conduct... is unacceptable."

"I want to thank Senator Blumenthal for convening this hearing, for being a leader on this topic."
