Mr. Speaker, our next speaker is a gentleman, and we have had a good mix of people tonight. We have had Jewish, Christian, Democrats, Republicans; we have had Members that are Cuban Americans originally, and now we have a gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Pence), who actually represents a district that does not have a single synagogue in it, and yet he stands 100 percent behind Israel's right to defend herself. I think it is just important that as we look at this, there are a lot of other Members in this 435-person body who have the same sentiments that those of us who have been here tonight have been expressing, and yet, for one reason or another, they are not with us tonight physically, but they certainly are with us in spirit. It is a great representative sampling.

Anytime we change a light bulb, we talk about how great the last one was. And that's what I'm hearing right now from the Democrats.
I actually think the American people are fed up with the politics. Elijah Cummings said today he wanted to work -- very liberal Democrat, as you know, he wanted to work with Trump. And I think that's a good sign.
The left has kept saying all along, why didn't the president just call, pick up the phone and ask the FBI or the Justice Department if he was being wiretapped.
Well, I have to say this, number one, the American people always have the right to question the work habits and the work venues of anybody who's elected to office.
