I would not at all be surprised if the Chinese are working to restrict what we can do with drones in Djibouti.

I think we should tap into that resource.

Djibouti serves as a first example of the Chinese military stepping out of the Chinese territory.

I do have an act that is called the SWAMP Act, which would move all of our headquarters of Federal agencies outside of the immediate Washington, DC, area.

Thank you very much for being here today.

I do want to thank President Trump and Secretary Perdue for their commitment to America's farmers by providing some relief, but we have heard time and time again today trade, not aid.
