The president's job is not to pass legislation, his job is to take care that the laws be faithfully executed.
Steve King
The Public Record
Steve King is a former Republican member of the United States House of Representatives, representing Iowa's 4th congressional district from 2003 to 2021. Known for his conservative views, King was a prominent figure in the House, often advocating for strict immigration policies and fiscal conservatism. He served on several committees during his tenure, including the Judiciary Committee and the Agriculture Committee, where he focused on issues important to his rural constituents. King's tenure was marked by controversy over his remarks on race and immigration, which drew criticism from both sides of the political spectrum.
Well, he was an adjunct constitutional law professor at the University of Chicago. And I say to him, the answer to that question is Article I of the Constitution. The legislative branch. It's a paramount branch of government. It's set up…
I would ask the gentleman, if the third mortar round was the fatal round for two of our brave Americans, would that indicate that that mortar had been set up and planned in advance?
If the gentleman were going to set up a mortar and zero in on a target, what would be the minimum number of rounds that it would take to have confidence that you can zero in on the top of a building?
Denied any answers. So what we know is that the administration immediately announced that it was a spontaneous eruption of a protest over a video. How they ever found that information to even be able to tie it to it because it's completely…
What level of confidence did that give you when you see Ambassador Susan Rice there to lead the briefing?
I would ask the gentleman from Pennsylvania if he attended the classified briefing Monday at 5 o'clock.
Do you think Susan Rice knew when she went before the five television networks the following Sunday?
Do you believe that the administration knew in real-time that it was a planned attack on our Ambassador and an assassination attempt?
Do you believe that the attack by our enemies on our Ambassador and the other victims was a planned attack or a spontaneous eruption?
And so the American people need to know this. Do you have any knowledge of who had custody of the body of Ambassador Stevens from the moment he was killed until such time as he turned up at the hospital in Benghazi?
Just wondering. When the assault went on in the compound that took out Osama bin Laden, and I would ask the gentleman, did you see any pictures from inside the Situation Room, and did you see a timeline of the events that took place on…
Open-source timeline. Have you seen any timeline of the Situation Room in the White House?
And have you seen a timeline that shows what happened in Benghazi from beginning to end, one that is credible, that you have confidence in?
I thank the gentleman from Virginia. And reclaiming my time, I appreciate having the dialog to this extent. And I know that the gentleman from Pennsylvania has a real focus on Benghazi. We've had some of this dialogue before, and so I…
Do we have a timeline that sets down events that took place from its inception to its relative conclusion in the operations and the cleanup that also correlates with a timeline of the situation room in the White House, and who was in the…
And so, Mr. Wolf, is it possible that the Select Committee on Intelligence could have had testimony before the committee, and because they are bound by the confidentiality of classified information, that even if they learned something from…
Do we know, has any of that information been entered into the record under oath, so far as witnesses are concerned, before the five committees that have jurisdiction?
The information you provided here, especially information as to the numbers of survivors and the numbers of wounded, where they were picked up, and by a Libyan plane, not a U.S. plane, was that information that was forthcomingly delivered…
Reclaiming my time, I thank the gentleman from Virginia and ask if the gentleman could stick around for a moment. I have a couple of questions that occurred to me as I was listening to his presentation. I would like to ask for the record…
We support Congressman King's efforts to prevent further soil dumping and are pleased his amendment was adopted by the House.
Reclaiming my time, I thank the gentleman from Texas for bringing these two individuals before this Congress and commemorating their contributions and their lives to this country. And one individual that has been making a contribution in…
The law enforcement officers I have seen these drug smugglers. Law enforcement officers have described them to me as well.
We should not as a Congress stick our head in the sand because we feel some political pressure. We have to do the right and objective thing.
