You have been an incompetent cop on the beat, doing nothing to protect everyday Americans, and pushing American firms into the hands of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

The answer, sir, is about 55.

The answer, sir, is zero.

When the FDIC sold Signature, it had the effect of closing Signet, which is an innovative payment system that facilitated 24/7 access to banking services.

The FDIC estimates that resolving Signature Bank is going to lead to a $2.5-billion loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund.

Let us not be fooled. Providing financial services to legal businesses in the U.S. should not be risky.

This Administration's political attack, quite frankly, from the highest levels of our government on the digital asset industry...sparked fear, leading to bank runs.

Record inflation as a result of reckless government spending led to historic interest rates the banks were not ready to manage.

The collapse of three regional banks over the course of 2 weeks is directly related to failed Democrat policies.

This Administration is weaponizing the banking sector to de-bank legal crypto activity here in the U.S.

Crypto technology is shifting economic power from centralized institutions back into the hands of the people.

We -- we... Joe Biden is the legitimately elected... president of the United States of America?

He's sworn. He's serving. He is the president of the United States.

Nobody should be intimidated when they're exercising their most precious right to vote.

Absolutely. There should be no attacks, period. There should be no violence in our society, again, whether it's political or otherwise.

There's no place for violence, period, in our society, physical violence or violence against someone's property.

It's interesting, exercising our Second Amendment rights, having fun --

Every life is precious and the decision to defend it should remain with the states.

If any company does not respond to said sweep letter, which I will reiterate, as you said several times, are supposed to be voluntary, then the SEC would make it a, 'bloodbath,' for them.

The SEC isn't interested in clarifying what areas of the crypto industry fall under SEC jurisdiction.

Is it true that regulatory barriers at a local level are impeding or are partly to blame for the problem with the housing supply across the country?

Listen, over the past few months my Democrat colleagues continue to find a scapegoat for inflation.

Yet, here we are. My Democrat colleagues don't seem to recognize that Congress' careless spending without regard for real solutions has made it harder for Americans to save up for a home.

Here is the reality. Prices are through the roof. Gas is up. Groceries are up. Housing is up.

Again, as I mentioned in my opening statement, inflation is at 8.6 percent and Americans actually need solutions right now.
