President Biden, Governor Pritzker, and Mayor Lightfoot have successfully vaccinated millions of Americans, over 222 million in total, including 8.3 million here in Illinois and 1.6 million in Chicago.

I would also like to thank Chairman Clyburn of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis for his strong leadership and for lending us the resources for this important hearing today.

It turns out that this guy, Jeff Clark, was writing or drafting these types of letters to all the six states that ended up going for Joe Biden. And I think that, you know, what we see is the beginning of the effort to overturn the election.

This guy Jeff Clark was writing or drafting these types of letters to all the six states that ended up going for Joe Biden.

We need that right now.

That goes to show how close we were to a Donald Trump getting his way.

What other types of calls exist? We know about the Raffensperger call, we know about this DOJ call.

I don`t know what they had planned for this DOJ maneuver to take place, and then they had certain steps to follow.

It`s extraordinary evidence of the extent to which that Donald Trump would meddle in the elections and have the DOJ do his bidding.

The attorney general is not the president`s lawyer. It`s not someone who`s there to do the bidding of the president.

We`ve got to push as hard as quickly as possible right now.

This is cheap insurance compared to the trillions of dollars that we`re going to be spending on the economic recovery.

No investment in the fight against COVID-19 is more urgent and cost effective now than an investment in getting the world vaccinated as quickly as possible.

We can`t wait any longer.

Oh, absolutely. You know, Kevin McCarthy made it very clear to his colleagues and he has not denied that when he spoke to Donald Trump, you know, Donald Trump basically questioned Kevin McCarthy’s loyalty in terms of why he didn’t believe…

Sir, you`re being evasive. These are yes or no questions, sir. You`re under oath. These are yes or no, simple questions that we need to get to the bottom of.

The leak hunt began when the FBI sent a subpoena to Apple in February 2018. You don`t dispute that report, correct?

And I think that is just completely bonkers. They`ve taken the bus to crazy town and they want all of us to go along for the ride, and I`m not going to, and neither are most of my colleagues.

There is no explanation, Joy. And it goes to what Paul Gosar, the congressman from Arizona, was saying, that kind of gives you a window into the thinking behind why they think they were justified in not voting for this congressional gold…

And that Ashli Babbitt, the woman who Gosar said was executed, was doing her duty somehow in breaching the Capitol and trying to get into the House chambers and pose a threat to others.

No, I`m not satisfied with the answer, and I think that we have to come to terms -- come to grips as a country and certainly as a government with this white supremacist danger.

Unless we get to the truth of exactly what happened before, during, and after January 6th, we`re not going to see the end of January 6th.

I think that we further exposed how they`re not only just accommodating the crazies, you could say, but they`re encouraging them.

We’re going to double down on our oversight duties and we’re going to make sure that this cannot happen again.

It`s an outrageous trampling of democratic norms. We knew that Donald Trump had politicized DOJ, now we know that he weaponized the DOJ as well.
