"I think you have to go to Congress to act in any kind of kinetic actions with Iran, absent our instant self-defense."
"The Secretary said just 2 months ago that that is on the table; that that could be used absent action from Congress."
"That is it. That as far as we have taken this and no farther."
"I believe that President Trump believes that Iran is an adversary that does not respect weakness, they only respect strength."
"The President does not want to go to war with Iran."
"I am deeply concerned about the degradation of democracy in Bangladesh."
"I think we need to take these issues very seriously."
"Again, there is no emergency. It is phony. It is made up and it is an abuse of the law, once again, attempting to cut Congress out of the whole picture."

"Congress is going to have to give itself stronger tools before the Administration just starts ignoring us completely."
"How can that possibly be stronger?"
"It is not stronger when it happens afterwards. It is not stronger."
