Setting aside that no American in this country should face financial ruin because of a health issue, certainly 9/11 first responders shouldn't have to decide whether to live or to have a place to live.

I am sorry if I sound angry and undiplomatic, but I am angry. You should be too.

The Speaker of the House who has reversed the presumption of innocence in this country to a presumption of guilt.

It's the same reason why the chairman, within days of Donald Trump getting elected, talked about impeaching him.

Look, to my Democratic colleagues, unlike Bob Mueller, who needed to find a crime to indict and did not, you don't need one to impeach Donald Trump.

That should've ended the inquiry, but it hasn't. We're doing these political hearings, we're wasting the American people's time.

The White House and the Trump campaign provided unprecedented levels of cooperation with the special counsel's investigation.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And, Mr. Chairman, sincerely, I want to thank you for returning 'so help me God,' the phrase, to the oath today to the witnesses.

I want to thank Secretary Perdue for the proposed rule, because I think work is opportunity.

What side of history are you on? Were you continuing to flail at a candidate you didn't want elected?

I am about to come to the conclusion we may need to just get done, get rid of them altogether.

We should have gotten a clue when the FISA court order, the application affidavit were released through WikiLeaks.

They have been done terribly wrong, and I am hopeful we will get to the bottom of this.

Now the Democrats tell us that they are taking the circus to court because the President has asserted executive privilege.

Not only is a subpoena the start of a dialogue, it is to give us better standing in court.

When the results of the Mueller investigation did not satisfy the Democrats, they quickly started peddling to the American people the manufactured constitutional crisis.
