I understand the current interpretation of the law is that military malpractice is an incident to military service. I mean, that shocks me, as a combat infantry Marine.

The lack of moral prioritization by this administration is galling.

I wonder, Madam Chair, what it says about our military medical system that it is so bad that we have to actually shield it, that it could cost multiple billions of dollars to fully allow tort claims, you know, which I think should scare us…

The solutions coming out of the White House are making it worse, not better

Extreme weather events and the shifting of tidal patterns and coastlines are impacting communities throughout the Indo-Pacific region.

I'm a physician by trade, and I was taught very early in medical school when you review a scientific article to look at the author, whether there's bias or not, and look at the sample size.

Even the FAA doesn't know really what to do with all the drones. There are more drones on the civilian side now than there are aircraft flying.

Again, it all comes down to accountability. And when you have a budget, Mr. Halvorsen, of $37 billion or whatever and you can't write a check for something that you see, it is just idiotcracy at its finest.
