I think that is the point we should directly deliver to Kim Jong-un.

We should tell Kim Jong-un that America is ready to use all military options if Kim Jong-un continues this process.

I have always been a big admirer and respecter of the work he has done.

The Fourth Amendment to the Constitution exists to protect the citizens of this country from being deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law. In practice and principle, adoptive forfeiture is a violation of that…

I and others have asked this administration for very specific examples, data, benchmarks, changes, and to date, we have not gotten any kind of specifics.

Your request of $500 million to counter ISIS in Syria does not include any mention or dollars to go after Al Qaeda

We have not carried out a serious campaign to do so to defeat Al Qaeda in Syria specifically

Sir, I think the reason why ISIS you are saying is now a greater danger is because it was not taken seriously--one reason among many--it was not taken seriously from the beginning.

I offer a privileged resolution and ask for its immediate consideration. The Clerk read the resolution, as follows: H. Res. 841 Resolved, That the House has heard with profound sorrow of the death of the Honorable Mark Takai, a…

Turkey's actions have directly strengthened groups like ISIS, al-Qaeda, and al-Nusra.

Our number one priority is, and should be, defeating ISIS, al-Qaeda, and these other jihadist groups.

The situation has improved dramatically.

I appreciate the comments from my colleague from Vermont. I would just like to make a point of clarification that this amendment would not stop our air strikes against ISIS. Those air strikes are funded through funds for Operation Inherent…

There are tools, and then there is leadership and commitment to standing against these acts of terrorism and extreme violence.

I appreciate very much your leadership and the role that you have taken in highlighting the importance of this total integrated force.
