So, what I fear we are seeing here is, again, unintended consequences of making the United States weaker and China stronger because we grow more dependent on them.

I do not think North Korea has a large carbon footprint. But the South Koreans, actually, their fossil fuel power composition is about 66 percent.

White supremacy is disgusting. It is disgusting.

You guys are playing a very dangerous game by continually overstating the threat of white supremacy.

I believe that our shipbuilding industry in America is the strongest in the world.

The only reason South Korea is free is because of America.

My, my, my. My colleagues across the aisle say we have a short memory. We don't have a short memory. This has seemed like an eternity over the last 2 years. We had no idea, as a nation, that this much injury could be brought upon our…

We are not asking you to stop doing your job, good sir.

CISA has broad authority to provide cybersecurity assistance to cross-sectors, yes.

I believe that should be our task, to address that as Congress, to make sure you have the necessary authority and that the laws are written to allow you to exercise that authority, and you have the technology required to protect our ports.

In society, woke is a social discussion, but in the military, woke is weak and that is the problem.

Both countries benefit from an orderly and secure border.

the most significant drug threat in the maritime domain remains cocaine.

Mr. Chairman, evil is not born in the mechanisms of man, it is born in the heart of man.

When you have an executive branch that abuses that authority, you don't change the authority, you change the executive.
