Amy Klobuchar

This is just another day in the Trump administration. Costs are up. Chaos is up, and yes, corruption is up.

Senator Tina Smith is not only a colleague, but a friend. She's a champion of women's rights and bravely shared her own story in her work to strengthen mental health care.

Recently, she introduced legislation that specifically targets algorithmic pricing practices.

They're looking for money under every corner. They don't care if it's your kid's cancer trials.

But the point is, the Constitution is the Constitution and if they start running amok with this, we will be in a crisis.

But in the end, being held in contempt, and of course, this would go up through the courts to the highest court of the land.

He's making it sound like that and we know in the past there have been court orders in his first presidency, for instance, on immigration and other cases where they did follow the orders.

I am really telling it. And she says to him: Do you know what, Senator? In the U.S. Senate, when we say the Pledge of Allegiance, we put our hand over our heart. He said: Well, that is what I did. She said: No, you were doing it like you…

I rise from the back row--with some of my best friends back here--to honor, like everyone gathered here today, Bob Casey, who has served the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for 17 years here with honor, dignity, and, yes, joy. He served…

We need to have a – new regulatory rules in place here.

I believe that there were...a number that I think make no sense at all.

We should have some kind of an outside board that governors have.

I believe that there were... a number that I think make no sense at all.

We have to make sure that regime is enforced with local and state authorities. And then we have got to figure out, do we really want all these drones?

The haunting words of the officer over the police radio that day, does anyone have a plan?

We found out that our officers didn't even have riot gear. 75 percent of them didn't have riot gear.

It's our job to advise and consent under the Constitution, and our job to support and defend the Constitution when we take our oath.

We have these open hearings. These people are going to be managing frontline workers that put their lives on the line. So they better pass an FBI background check.

I think that Kash Patel's nomination is a reason that we're going to have background checks on these nominees. It's one of the reasons, when you look at some of the nominees, why we have to have an open hearing. I just don't think that…

You know, I would've loved to see him stay on for his full term. Christopher Wray is someone that was appointed first by George Bush to be Head of Criminal after 9/11. He then went on to serve with great distinction, appointed by Donald…

We've got to remember that this is truly about our job by the Constitution, advice and consent, we take it seriously.

This doesn't mean we oppose every single one of them. I predict we won't. I think there will be some Democrats who will vote for some, and they won't vote for others.

I don't believe so. I think this is one where you've started to see Republicans standing up, but Democrats have a clear role here.

We must have these hearings. We must ask the questions, and we must do the checks on people's backgrounds.

I just think people should have hearings and you get to the bottom of all this and that was a way-back moment remembering Claire and I cross-examining Dr. Oz about some of these claims.
