Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, it seems like, with this White House, there is a new crisis every single day. On Monday, it was reported that the President revealed classified information in the Oval Office to Russians, compromising our national security, compromising our ability to gather intelligence on ISIS, compromising our ability to keep America safe. Now we learn that the President tried to interfere with an ongoing investigation, asking the head of the FBI to lay off his National Security Adviser, Mr. Flynn, to leave it alone, to let it go. This is an abuse of power, there is no two ways about it, and Democrats and Republicans have to stand up and do our constitutional duty to protect this democracy. Partisanship has to be set aside. We have to do our job. We have to serve the American people, and we have to protect this precious democracy and do our constitutional duty. Democrats and Republicans both have to stand together on this. We need an independent commission to investigate this problem, and we need to do it now. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to refrain from engaging in personalities toward the President of the United States. ____________________”
