I think our job is to inform the American people of this so that they take more--exercise better judgment as--in terms of what is real news and fake news.

Thanks to Vladimir Putin, we've gotten a wake-up call. The Russian bear came out of the hibernation.

He has repeatedly stated that he would not give that up. He sees that as existential to his regime's survival and to his own survival.

It is evermore important that we remain vigilant to the range of threats worldwide as we seek to do all we can to provide security to the American people.

The United States is under attack.

We currently face the most complex, volatile, and challenging threat environment in modern times.

I mean, everything we've seen leads us down a path that really the preservation of the regime from any kind of external threat is central to that weapons program.

We have made--drawn a very clear line: North Korea has to agree to not possess nuclear capability.

It's disappointing that the most capable country, Germany, is not living up to its weight in NATO.

the process is broken. It needs to be reformed. As Senator Warner has previously said, it's not evolution; it's revolution.

The impacts of the long-term trends towards a warming climate, more air pollution, biodiversity loss, and water scarcity are likely to fuel economic and social discontent--and possibly upheaval--through 2018.

We should do a significant review of the current CFIUS situation to bring it up to speed.

I have never been pressured, I've never felt pressure to intervene or interfere in any way with shaping intelligence.

I do not feel it's appropriate for me to, in a public session in which confidential conversations between the President and myself--I don't believe it's appropriate for me to address that in a public session.

That is -- that is something that I -- would like to withhold that question at this particular point in time.

I believe it would, and I think a lot of Americans will die unnecessarily.

We assess that Russia and China perceive a need to offset any U.S. military advantage derived from military, civil, or commercial space systems and are increasingly considering attacks against satellite systems as part of their future…

Clearly going to the heart of ISIS and driving a stake through that heart we assess will significantly improve the situation.

It is the policy of the United States to prevent it.
