My only takeaway is, as you go back, and however this form reaches the decision-makers in the interagency, to the extent that the Department of State is involved in the interagency, we just--I can't speak for everyone else, but I think…

Just tell Commerce that DNA sequencers are being used to violate human rights in a grotesque way so hopefully they can get moving on denying this.

I think for us it comes down to the purpose of whether or not we want companies housed in the United States benefiting from American research, from our laws, from our freedom, from the protection of our rule of law in this country, to…

Well, just on the issue of whether or not the end user is using it this way, the Department of State is seated right next to you, and they just testified publicly how this information is being used. So I think we have an interagency…

It's an outrage. It's an embarrassment.

It's hypocritical for American corporations and multinationals doing business in China who are fully prepared to boycott American cities.

These are some of the most horrifying things that are happening in the world today.

We are a free society--let me just start there--in the United States.

I raise the fact that it is working for the following reason, and that is, we can have a lot of commission meetings.

The people who are in the embassy here are... irritated by it.

It strikes me--and that's my assessment as well. I mean, that is how I feel as well, and it is not--obviously, money does talk, and Chinese investment abroad isn't simply into roads and bridges.

It has been my experience that there are two things they seem to respond to and only two things.

I think it's part of the broader long arm of China, which I think goes well beyond...

The single biggest national security threat in the long term to the United States is China.

We have to make sure that the price is higher than the benefit.

We have to defend against potential interference, election systems and the like.

When Vladimir Putin decided to interfere in our elections, you would agree he undertook a cost-benefit analysis.

They are forcing people to turn over blood to get a passport or just compelling it.

I think it was a big mistake.

President Xi certainly views himself as a historic and transformational figure, and one of their goals is to remake the global order more in their image.

What the President said today is not accurate. The intelligence community has assembled probably an unparalleled amount of evidence in regards to the Russian not just efforts to interfere in 2016, but ongoing efforts to interfere in…

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it stand adjourned under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 5:11 p.m., adjourned until Monday, July 16, 2018, at 3 p.m…

The history of serious negotiations with China on matters such as this is not promising.

I think it is hard to partner up with countries to take on China and isolate China when we are in a trade war.

There are losers to trade, even agreements that are great.
