They are trying to create havoc. They are trying to undermine the American people's confidence in our system of democracy.
What consequences are there--piggybacking on what Congressman Rutherford asked you, what consequences are for this kind of waste, fraud, and abuse practices?
So if Vladimir Putin denied that they were attempting to interfere in our elections, would you believe him?
But what are you doing to make sure that mistakes--grave, gross mistakes like that don't happen again?
Abuse and ridicule is not in their job description, but one would think it was.
But I want to be clear my questions are not about the harm done to any individual by WikiLeaks and the Russians, it is about the possible and likely harm to the United States of America and our democracy.
I thank the gentleman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, what we are witnessing is a President who poses a direct threat to both our military families and America's national security. First, as we have heard, there is no border emergency. That is…
If Mr. Trump and his daughter Ivanka and son Donald Jr. are involved in the Russian Trump Tower deal, is it possible the whole family is conflicted or compromised with a foreign adversary in the months before the election?

I am concerned that there is an inequity and a lack of predictability or consistency for cold and warm weather states.
It is equally as important to keep my constituents cool as it is to keep a member from a cold weather state's constituents warm.
that term 'intentional,' Madam Chair, has sort of become a buzzy-word, but it is so important when it comes to making sure that we have diverse opportunities for more people who wouldn't traditionally form that pathway, which is why I have…
Climate change, I think, can be acknowledged as a central crisis of our time, no matter what you think the origin is.
Given that the administration has repeatedly--this administration has repeatedly targeted this program for elimination essentially or the funding for elimination, is enough attention paid to the program to ensure that the most updated…
No offense to the older white men in the room. There might be--I know, I am sorry. Sorry, not sorry.
I think you referenced that in your opening remarks. There is really no transparency and a risk of compromising our national security.
We can't have the fox watching the hen house any longer. And this bill at least takes a step toward transparency.
I actually proposed two amendments in the appropriations bill in 2017 to revoke Mr. Kushner's security clearance because he repeatedly violated the rules.
