I thank my friend for bringing that up. Coming from an energy State like Louisiana, just like Pennsylvania, we know how important this is to us. Under the Trump administration, we had achieved energy dominance. We could get back to that if…
The gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Rose) has articulated so well what is on the hearts and minds of so many of our constituents. Inflation is a very real problem for the American people. Mr. Speaker, I yield next to the gentleman from…
I thank my friend so much for that and for his service to our country. Having defended our Nation you know that if we don't have a border, we not only don't have safety and security, but we also don't even have sovereignty. We don't even…
I thank my friend. And I will tell him that he is not going to resign. The gentleman from Arkansas may not know this, but just a few hours ago in the Homeland Security Committee, one of our Republican colleagues from Mississippi…
The gentleman is exactly right. It is time to shift back to American energy dominance, which we had under the previous administration. Mr. Speaker, I am happy to yield next to another doctor, the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Babin).
We have been calling on this President to do his job since he entered that office, and he hasn't done it. I appreciate the gentleman's leadership on all these issues. Mr. Speaker, I am happy to yield next to the gentleman from Georgia (Mr…
I thank my friend for his clear voice and clarion call for competence and common sense. Mr. Speaker, what my colleagues have articulated tonight is our view, the American people's view on the debacle that is the unified government by the…
The safety and security of the American people are being directly threatened, and innocent children, sir, are being abducted, assaulted, raped, and murdered by human traffickers.
your administration, is failing to protect the border and making it almost impossible to correctly address issues on immigration.
Mr. Secretary, this is outrageous. At your oath-of-office ceremony on February 2, 2021, you said, quote, "The mission of the Department of Homeland Security is to safeguard the American people, our homeland, and our values."
The Mexican cartels seem to be in charge of our border and who crosses it. Removing title 42 is wrong, reckless, and plain stupid.
I encourage you to change courses to end your empathy-free open border policies. If not, I promise you American history will not treat you kindly.
It is your policies and because of them that our entire country is becoming a crime scene and we are dealing with a humanitarian disaster that would have been unimaginable just three or four years ago.
I think it is, quite frankly, laughable to label those legitimate concerns as racist, just because Justice Thomas has faced racism in the past.
I believe that Black men in America face racism, and that Justice Thomas likely has faced racism in his past.
I think his conduct with respect to the recusals in Trump v. Thompson and other cases that implicate not just his wife's conduct, threaten our democracy.
I thank my friend; we always need a little moment of brevity, don't we? The news is so bad, but the gentleman pointed out and highlighted how difficult the times are, and that is a serious subject. Mr. Speaker, I am delighted to yield next…
There is a lot of wisdom there. The gentleman is exactly right. If a judge begins with the premise that we have no natural rights, that does not bode well for where that logic leads. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Pennsylvania…
That was so well said. I appreciate the gentleman highlighting that issue. It is one of so many that we have deep concerns about with this administration and their budget and everything they do. We have to protect the sanctity of every…
Absolutely. And these are the results of policy choices, and they could easily be reversed if the White House would wake up and do something. So I thank the gentleman for bringing that to our attention tonight. Mr. Speaker, you have heard…
I thank my friend for highlighting that. It is a serious issue. The longest-lasting legacy of any President is who they put on those Federal courts, and, of course, the most important is the highest court in the land. We cannot overstate…
I thank the gentleman. So much of that is just common sense, and I appreciate him pointing it out. But sadly, unfortunately, this White House shows no intention whatsoever of reversing its policies and positions, which could fix these…
Politicians like Mike Johnson
